Terrific Modern Cloth Nappy - the inserts are the best!
EcoNaps really are terrific MCNs. The quality is great, the designs are lovely (although there could be more of them!) and I love that they are convertible between pocket nappies and AI2s. The Kam snaps are really sturdy - great that there are two levels of them, makes it really secure (and as such, the fit is really good and I haven't had leaks). The real winner here are the inserts. I wasn't sure to begin with - they are terry towel bamboo, different to other brands - but they are SO absorbent! They do take longer to dry than other inserts, s...
Read moreo am thinking of buying another set of inserts so I'll have some at hand more readily. EcoNaps tend to be a bit bulky, with the front flap bulging a bit because there's a hidden front pocket to secure the inserts (which is actually a great idea, so bulkiness is the drawback). I would also prefer two horizontal snaps across the back instead of just one, for greater insert stability. A sweet little business from Byron Bay. Postage is a bit slow but my EcoNaps came in a lovely calico drawstring bag, which was a really nice touch. Would buy more. Pros Great quality, lovely designs Convertible between pocket nappies and Ai2s. Front pocket securely holds inserts and liner in place.Purchased in .

Better than others
These are our favourite cloth nappy. I don't think we've ever had a leak. However my baby ends up with indents/red marks around his legs much more so than with other brands. He is not a chubby baby so I'm not sure why this is.
Don't have an issues with nappy rash with these nappies.
These nappies do end up expensive when you include shipping and it's frustrating that you can't buy them locally.

I still haven't made up my mind about these nappies...
These are very versatile nappies made from quality materials, that much is sure. We started using them when our daughter was 3 days old and 2.9kg (on the smallest setting) and we are still using them 9 months later (on a larger setting with room to further adjust the waist size). They wash up very well, particularly when dried in the sun (to whiten the liner material) - the liners are hard to get dry in a dryer. However, I'm not sure if I would purchase these again, and my reasons probably apply to any nappy, reusable or not (i.e. nappy rash, l...
Read moreeaking from around the legs). Using these is a learning exercise that I sometimes give up on. Ultimately, I think it is nice to have these nappies at home to use alongside disposables or other reusables but I'm not sure they are worth the hefty investment when used in this fashion.Review collected in partnership with EcoNaps

Stunning design and good quality nappies worth the pennies
Loving econaps! Can't wait to order more when the new prints release. excellent quality and my bub seems very comfortable wearing them. I did have 2 of the older style which weren't as comfortable on him, however they've changed material and now they are perfect. Would highly recommend for during the day.

Beautiful in every way.... except import tax
The econaps and accessories I purchased are for my unborn grand baby. My daughter researched cloth naps & felt yours were of quality, functional, versatile and such beautiful fabric. We are yet to see if they live up to what we believe is a fantastic nap. Unfortunately I’m am in NZ and my purchase incurred rather a hefty import tax....

Easy intro to the MCN
So easy for newborns and the versatility of the sizing ment the only nappy explosions we had since our Bub was born 6 weeks ago where with disposables.
Only thing is some of the coloured press studs are exceptionally stiff and some slight sizing variations between the different nappies. I would like to know how they god up after a year of use if anyone knows.
I liked them enough that I now have a full time pack

Good nappies, cute prints!
I like these nappies a lot- the prints are adorable, they fit my 10 week old baby really well, and the inserts are super absorbent- we only use one of the two included at the moment. I don't like stuffing pockets, so a stay-dry layer at the top of the inserts would be an awesome addition. Otherwise, superb nappies!

Great nappy.
I'm really happy with these nappies. I originonally purchased a trial pack, and have since added another 5 to my stash.
Things I love:
- the prints are incredible! and it's pretty cool that they are handmade
- newborn & heavy inserts allow for all stages
- nice and trim and easy to use
Things that I would change:
- The price! I wish I could afford more of these, but it seems to become quite a good deal if you buy them in a bigger pack.

These EcoNaps cloth nappies win points for versatility. They can be used by newborns (from 3.5kg), all the way up to toddler age (up to 16kg). If you’re not sure whether to opt for pocket nappies (good for heavy wetters) or all-in-2’s, EcoNaps will have you covered, with a 2-in-1 design.
A variety of snap buttons means size adjustments are plentiful, with just over 16 size settings to choose from, depending on your bub’s weight and size.
What makes Econaps nappies eco-friendly?
Econaps uses a cloth nappy cover (with materials not being specified on its website) and a choice between bamboo inserts and a suede layer built into the cloth nappy cover.
Econaps aims to apply this enviro-conscious mentality to its delivery system as well, using compostable postage satchels, recyclable boxes, and organic cotton tote bags.
