Mother-ease - One Size Cotton Terry Fitted Diaper Review

If you've been following my September Fitted Diaper Event and all the reviews then you've probably noticed that almost all of the fitted diapers I'm testing are on the higher end price range, made by work at home moms (WAHM), and have decorative exterior prints.  Well, I wanted to add a couple economical and readily available diapers as well.  That's where the Mother-ease One-Size Cotton Terry Fitted Diaper comes into play.  These diapers are easy to obtain, have a price that won't break the budget, and are great for those moms that love a simple clean look without a lot of fuss.  Now I'm usually all about color and fun prints, but some days I just love the look of a natural looking diaper.  It almost makes me feel like I'm on Little House On the Prairie for some reason.   

Diaper Features:

Sizing:  This is a one size diaper fitting babies from 8-35 lbs utilizing a fold down rise and a cross-over snap.

Closure: Snaps (2 on each wing) with a cross-over snap and fold down rise snaps.

Exterior: I used the Unbleached Stretchy Cotton Terry.  You can also get these in white cotton terry, various colors of cotton terry, bamboo terry, organic cotton terry, or stay dry stretchy cotton terry.

Interior Lining: Unbleached stretchy cotton terry.

Hidden Layers:  4 Layers of unbleached stretchy cotton terry.

Soaker:  The soaker is fully sewn into the diaper but an optional 3 layer snap in liner can be purchased in unbleached cotton, white cotton, organic cotton, bamboo, or stay dry.  The optional liner snaps in when the diaper is on the largest setting, but lays in when on the small or medium setting.

Manufactured:  Canada

Average Retail Price: $11.95

Performance Review:

Ease Of Use: ♥♥♥♥♥ - These diapers are pretty easy to use.  There are only two snaps on each wing and folding the rise over for adjustments is pretty easy as well.  The only part that seems a bit off is when you cross the wings over.  The snaps are so close that you kind of have to bend the tab to get it to work.

Adjustability & Fit: ♥♥♥♥♥ - The fit of these diapers is very trim since there really isn't much bulk to the diaper.  They are a bit wide between the legs, but because they're so thin it doesn't really create a lot of bulk between the legs.  As far as adjustability, I find that this diaper fits better on an older baby than a newborn, but I did try this diaper on my newborn model and it worked ok.  The fact that this diaper is thin really helps with the one size factor.

Leak Protection: ♥♥♥♥♥ - These diapers are pretty thin so I would only use them during the day unless you're going to add an extra soaker to them.  I would also wear a cover over it during the day.  Kam, our tester baby #2 only lasted 10 min in this diaper.  

Wash Routine: ♥♥♥♥♥ - These diapers are super easy as far as wash routine.  You don't have to worry about snaps in the wash or dryer and there is no additional soaker to look for when putting your diapers away (unless you buy an additional soaker which I would recommend).  If you get the white diapers then you also don't have to worry about fading.  These diapers also dry very fast (about 75min for me).

Bang For The Buck: ♥♥♥♥♥ - At just over $11 these are a great price!  I do wish they came with the additional soaker though.  That would make them a better deal in my eyes.  I actually would be willing to pay more for the additional soaker.  I just think it should come with one.  Since they're a one-size diaper, you won't have to worry about sizing up either.

Quality & Durability: ♥♥♥♥♥ - The quality and durability seems very good on this diaper.  It's not quite as soft as the Bummis Stretch Bamboozle or the Sustainablebabyish, but it's still pretty soft.  I also like the cotton binding.  It keeps the edges looking very nice and clean as opposed to serging the edges.

The Look: ♥♥♥♥♥ - This is a basic no frills fitted diaper.  You can get it in some fun solid colors or the basic white.  If I was to get these again, I would get them in a fun color.  I'm all about color.  I do like the clean lined look with the way the whole diaper is bound on the edges, but I guess I'm just looking for a little something extra in my fitteds.  

In Conclusion:
I would recommend these diapers to someone that is a light to average wetter that is wearing a cover or a doubler if you are having your baby go coverless.  They are a great price, so if you just want something simple and trim then I say go for it!  They do feel pretty soft and I bet babies would love the soft terry feel on their bum.
