Little Seedlings - Hybrid Fitted Diaper Review

I was so excited to be able to test out a Little Seedlings Hybrid Fitted Diaper.  I'd heard so many great things about hybrid fitteds and really just wanted to test them out for myself.  Is this the new magic diaper?  I will tell you, when I got this diaper in the mail I was in awe.  It was just soooooo squishy.  I'm pretty sure that this is the squishiest diaper that I've ever touched.  If one day I end up somewhere without my pillow and need to take a nap, this is the diaper that I'm going to grab as a MacGyver insta pillow.  I could have sweet dreams laying on this bitty fluff.  Speaking of sleep, I'll sleep even better knowing that Linc is wearing one of these diapers.  Nothing is getting past this diaper.   I'm pretty sure it's bulletproof.  That said, read on below to see what else I have to say about this squishy, cute, little diaper.

Performance Review:

Ease Of Use: ♥♥♥♥♥ - This diaper is pretty easy to use.  There are three snaps on each wing though, so yes, it does take awhile to put on.  The stretch of the wings makes it a bit faster though.  I also like that the soaker is short so I don't have to worry about folding it to make it fit.

Adjustability & Fit: ♥♥♥♥♥ - The fit of this diaper is amazing!!!! I love how nicely this diaper stretches.  It hugs Linc just perfectly.  I will say it's a bit bulky, but then again, most hybrid diapers are.  Jessica (tester #2) also love the fit of this diaper.

Leak Protection: ♥♥♥♥♥ - Nothing is getting past this diaper!  I can leave Linc in this diaper for 3-4 hours without a cover before the outside feels wet.  It's awesome!  If you want a breathable diaper to go out and about in then this is the diaper for you.  If you have a heavy wetter that will soak any diaper, then this is the diaper for you.  Night or day, this diaper will not fail.  I also wanted to note that this was one of the few diapers in my fitted event that Linc pooped in.  It was a poosplosion, but well contained in the diaper.

Wash Routine: ♥♥♥♥♥ - This diaper is ok as far as washing.  If you leave the soaker snapped in then you won't have to worry about locating it and snapping it back in after washing.  The soaker does take awhile to dry though.  The diaper and the doubler will dry in about 75 min, but the soaker takes about 105 minutes due to the way it's sewn together at the top.  If the soaker wasn't sewn in a half moon shape making it impossible for the soaker to fully spread out, then it would dry a lot faster.  Oh, and back to the poosplosion that I referenced above.  This diaper was very easy to clean when I put the doubler on top of the soaker.  Most of the poop was on the doubler and it sprayed off super easy. **Updated Rating!  Little Seedlings has updated their soaker design so that they too will dry in about 75 minutes.  Whoot!**

Bang For The Buck: ♥♥♥♥♥ - Ok, this is a tricky question.  Do I think these diapers are worth the price?  Yes I do.  Are they expensive?  Yes they are.  These are at the higher end of fitted diaper prices.  At least they're a one-size diaper so you won't need to size up.

Quality & Durability: ♥♥♥♥♥ - This is a top quality diaper!  Every stitch looks perfect and the materials are oh so soft and luxurious.  I think I squished this diaper a million times when I first got it because I loved it so much.

The Look: ♥♥♥♥♥ - I love the look of this squishy little (or not so little) diaper.  I love the cute prints and how the interior lining matches up so nicely.  I also love how she coordinates the snaps in not one, but two colors.  The only downfall is the bulk.  This is quite the super booty diaper.  You can cut down the bulk if you eliminate the doubler though.

In Conclusion:
I would recommend this diaper to anyone looking for a nighttime diaper for a heavy wetter, for those wanting a fitted that will last longer than one pee without a cover, or those that want a fitted that they can run errands without a cover.  This is your diaper!  Those that hate bulk or high prices might want to steer clear.  I personally love it though and plan on getting another for my baby's booty.  I know our other testers, Jessica and Kamryn love this diaper too.
