Reviewed by Kelly on Friday 17 May, 2013I LOVE the flip system. I used another brand of cloth diapers on my son and quit after three months because I couldn't stand them. I recently decided to give it another shot with my eight month old daughter and asked my sister in law for advise. She recommended the flip system, and I gotta say I'm hooked! She's big enough so I don't have to snap the rise down, although I could, but I like it much better unsnapped. With it snapped down it does cause extra bulk, so if you want a very slim fitted diaper these may not be for you. I tried pocket diapers with my son and I find the flip diapers much more slim. At night and during naps I put a hemp insert between the cover and stay dry insert and I haven't had a problem with them leaking. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by Dayan on Thursday 09 May, 2013 I recently purchased 3 flip diapers to add to my stash. They're amazing! I couldn't believe how easy it is to diaper my 3 month old with these. She is a little mini girl for her age and these fit perfectly! I just have to make sure to adjust it correctly for her little thighs. Thank you for another exceptional product. I will be telling my mommy friends. Rating:  [1 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by Sonia on Friday 26 April, 2013 Honestly not too impressed. I bought these because they were supposed to be an amazing diaper, and I found that they are just too bulky. When used on a bigger baby, they might be great, but on my baby with the snaps down the front is VERY bulky and looks really ugly. Also, the elastics in the legs loosened right up and somehow, over nights, pee will leak out from the MIDDLE of the diaper. Not sure why that happens? Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by Rebecca on Monday 22 April, 2013 Love! Love! Love! I love the Flips system, my daughter is 5 months old now and the fact these covers grow with her is wonderful and the hook/loop closures make diaper changes very easy for my husband. We use them with cotton pre-folds during the day and cotton/hemp pre-folds at night. The laundry tabs are perfect and they wash wonderfully right along with our pre-folds. We do tend to have to put them to be washed after a big poop (because her poop is so soft) but 99% of the time the elastic leg gussets hold it all in really well. We have 12 covers total, but would recommend a minimum of 6 if you are washing a load of diapers every 2-3 days. For anyone looking to save money, cloth diaper, have lots of versatility, and have quality diaper covers that last I would definitely recommend the Flips system. Rating:  [4 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by Luwina on Tuesday 16 April, 2013 We love the Flip system. I like the snap covers over the hook and loopp because the velcro becomes weak over time even though it is easier to put on. I got the organic inserts and like them a lot, but after 2 years of washing they are starting to fall apart. For the next baby I will get more flip snap covers and econobum inserts because I think they will be just as good as the organic ones and much cheaper. So the only reason why its not 5 stars is the fact that they wore out. The covers were great, they never leaked unless I left her in them too long of course :) Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by Candice on Sunday 24 March, 2013 We love the Flip system. We have a 2 month old who is a quite heavy wetter for his age and not once have we had a leak with our flip cover like the Thirsties we leaks through. I am on my way to buying more of them right now :) Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]

Cotton Babies Verified Purchase Our little man has been wearing these since he was a week old. He's now 2.5 months, so it hasn't been terribly long yet, but I am vrry satisfied with this cover, the stay dry inserts, and the disposable inserts as well. I use prefolds with cover also and our infant Indian prefolds with a bumgenius sock is just like having a 4.0 diaper on. I love how fast this covet dries. When he was 3 Weeks old we had to go out of town and stay at a motel for a week. When I ran out of the disposable inserts I had to use Pampers from the local store! Everytime they leaked.I put this cover over the pamper and it saved his outfit from having to be changed constantly. No more leaks! Great fit and my go to cover. Plus I love the colors and the Albert...so cute! We use hook and loop because they're just easier in my opinion. Rating: [4 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by Stacy on Friday 15 March, 2013 These have the same look and feel as the bumGenius diapers. The tabs are really stretchy, the fabric is soft and not stiff, and I LOVE that they don't have hip snaps (those are always so awkward on my baby).
I like a super trim diaper, so I use these over a pad folded flour sack towel for my 15 month old and they are as trim as a disposable (the trade off is I have to change her a lot more often). I have never had a leak with these.
My only complaints are that the rise snaps have a tendacy to come undone when I am putting the cover on so I have to be careful to grab it below them. Also the flaps don't do a good job at keeping the insert in place so it's harder to keep it straight when putting it on her.
Overall I really like these and I would highly recommend! Rating:  [3 of 5 Stars!]

Cotton Babies Verified Purchase I used these covers to cloth diaper my first daughter and used to like them a lot. Now that my second one is on the way I pulled all the covers out to check and found that the flip covers had all worn out elastics and many had the PUL worn through. I had my daughter potty trained by 18 months, so I used 6 covers alternating throughout these months. I also own a Blueberry cover and some thirsties and found their PUL did not wear out. I will pay a bid more money and buy the Blueberries. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]

Cotton Babies Verified Purchase I absolutely LOVE the Flip diaper! I started out as a gDiapers momma, but the pants just never fit my chunky baby correctly. The Flip is tight and loose in all the right places. I do use gcloth inserts from gDiapers simply because I have a ton, and they work great. So glad I found the Flip so I could purchase a few shells and still use my inserts. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]

Cotton Babies Verified Purchase I have been using the Flip Diaper system ever since my 20-month-old son was born and I absolutely love it. It was my first time using cloth diapers and I was very overwhelmed by all the options at first. But using the diaper cover with the stay-dry insert is easy, virtually leakproof, and so economical. Once you start, you get the hang of cloth diapering very quickly. I recommend the snap diapers because my hook and loop are wearing out and my son can take them off easily, while the snaps stay on securely. We have never had a "poop blowout" or diaper rash. I love the Rockin'Green laundry detergent the best for my diapers- they get rid of the smell and keep them looking very clean. I use flannel wipes too- they work well and are easy to throw in and wash with my diapers. Try the Flip's - I am so happy that I did! Rating: [4 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by Valerie on Wednesday 06 February, 2013 I LOVE the flip diaper covers, great fit and great against leaks. The only reason I cannot give it a 5 is because the hook/loop closure is awful. I have had mine for about 7 months and am having to exchange them for covers with snaps because they are no longer holding. They are falling right off my baby, doesn't do much good! They must have changed they type of hook/loop closures they use because I have purchased other diapers from this company with hook/loop 3-4 years ago and have never replaced the tabs, they are still working great! Don't know why they would change such an inexpensive part of the diaper for the worse! I like the convenience of the hook/loop but am having to go with the snaps so the diapers will last longer than 6 months! Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by Kari on Saturday 19 January, 2013 I love the Flip Hook and Loop diapers! They are very economical, in that the price is good, you can use anything as an insert, you can use from little babes to toddlers. They are just great! They have a great fit for both big and little babes. They are simple and can be reused until cover becomes soiled. I am now using them to help my potty trainer to recognize when he's wet, but keep the mess off my floors! Rating: [4 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by Bre'elle on Thursday 17 January, 2013 I ordered flips as my first time trying cloth diapers..and I must say I love them. I love the colors and how they adjust with your baby's growth. They're a little bit bulky but not too bad. I do love the tight fit I can get with the buttons across the top at their bellies. As my twins have started rolling around, I was afraid they would leak...nope no leaks! The only real issue I have is I have had a few leaks and absolutely couldn't figure out why. Snaps were good, diaper fit great..my inserts/prefolds I had ordered from another place were really cheaply made apparently..so do yourself a favor. .order the stay-dry inserts! I dont have a leak issue now. The other issue I have is some have this thin material around the back of the snaps area (inside the diaper) and water gets trapped behind it during washing. No amount of air drying will get this water out and dried up! I had to stick them in the dryer for 10 mins to get that back part of the snaps area dry. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]

Cotton Babies Verified Purchase I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Flip diapers. I recommend them to everyone. I was new to cloth, and these are so simple, so easy, so convenient.

Reviewed by Catherine on Friday 28 December, 2012 Love my Flip covers!!! I use the Flip covers with either prefolds or over pocket diapers that I made myself and they work great. I have a couple of other brands of diaper covers too, but the Flip covers are the ones I use every day. I only have 3 Flip covers and for my set-up it works great. I just rotate through them throughout the day and let them air dry out between changes, or if any poop ends up on them, I rinse them out in the sink, and hang them up in the shower to dry. I run all of them through the wash every time I do a load of diapers and switch to using the other brand diaper covers until my Flips dry. The only downside I seen with the covers is that they didn't really fit my little one very well until she hit about 14 pounds, although she had pretty skinny legs, but once she hit that weight, they have worked great and I have never had a blow out unlike I have experienced with my other covers. If I have anymore kids in the future, I will definitely be buying more of these. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]
Reviewed by latosha on Wednesday 12 December, 2012 My go-to cover for my three month old boy. I have three flips and three newborn size from another company. I use flip and stay-dry inserts first, no red thighs, no digging into baby's waist, and not too bulky. Urine odor destroyed by a wipe and air drying until laundry time. Will switch to AIO eventually, but with flip there is no hurry. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]

Cotton Babies Verified Purchase These are our favorite of all the cloth diapers. We have been using them for 3 yrs now with 3 kids, and a stash of 30 covers and 60 inserts gets us through at least 2 solid days, sometimes longer--my 3yo is close to potty training but my 2yo and 7mo still use them exclusively. We were very excited to be able to totally refresh our stash during the Black Friday - Cyber Monday sale, and will be reselling our previous stash to another Mama in a few days who is very excited to be using Flips as well.
We have used bumGenius, prefolds with covers, and of course Flips, and Flips are by far our favorite. They are so easy to grab and go, and you don't have to spend an hour stuffing each time they come out of the wash (both of which things are really important when you're a busy mom of multiple littles!). Also, they are SUPER at keeping big messes IN. We hardly ever have poo anywhere other than inside the diaper, and, like I said, have been using Flips exclusively for 3 yrs. At night we double the stay dry inserts and almost never have leaks. We also almost never have rashes, and when we do, we do a strip cycle as part of our normal wash routine (See Cloth Diaper Basics link in bottom of left column here on CottonBabies.com) and things are back to normal. We just can't say enough good things about these diapers.
For the quality, price, ease of use and versatility, you definitely couldn't find a better diaper. Especially in this economy, where it's important to families to save as much as possible while providing the best care for their children, you definitely can't go wrong with Flips.

Reviewed by Kristin on Thursday 29 November, 2012 I absolutely LOVE my flip covers. They fit my son wonderfully and I have NEVER had a problem with leaks even when his diaper is soaked, which was a major problem I had with the Fuzzibunz I was using. The snaps are very strong and durable! I have had great success with them over prefolds, hemp inserts, and some fitteds. My one and only complaint is that, as previous reviews have stated, the leg elastic does relax quite alot. I just bought new ones and compared them too my old ones (that are only a few months old) and there is definately a noticable difference. I don't find that affects the functionality of the diaper at all. I am, however, concerned by this because the covers may not transfer from a bigger/older child to a younger/smaller child due to the amount of relaxation. I now have 9 covers and will be saving some for future children! Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!]

Cotton Babies Verified Purchase We really love our Flip cover, and just ordered 2 more after trying one out for more than a month. It has held up well, washes well, fits well. Our guy started wearing it around 4 months, 25" and 14lbs and it fit very well. He's now 6 months, 27" & 17lbs and can still use the smallest rise setting. We have used prefolds (also ordered from cottonbabies) and kissaluv fitteds underneath. We just expanded our stash to also use MEOS fitteds and Flip Stay Dry inserts to use with this cover as well. Our guy is a seriously heavy wetter, and anything that has fleece around the legs always leaks out, eliminating a good amount of cloth diaper options for us. This cover is fantastic! I can use this cover through several diaper changes because it's easy to wipe off the inside as necessary before putting back on the babe. For the price, it's certainly worth giving this cover a try!
