Snappi Cloth Diaper Fastener Reviews (33) Write Review Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Kerrie on Monday 19 July, 2010Defiantly an item no cloth diapering mama should be without and you absolutely can not beat free shipping!
Thank you! Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Rachael on Monday 05 July, 2010 Love these! When I was pregnant, I swore up and down that I'd use the fun & "easy" pockets and AIO's... Now that he's 8 months old, we've been through every type known to man. I enjoy trying new dipes, but I LOVE the smell of clean prefolds and I get the best fit with a Snappi! I'm willing to try pins, but the Snappi is safer for a squirmy baby, in my opinion, and husband-friendly too! Rating: [4 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by REBECCA on Saturday 26 June, 2010 I LOVE snappis. We're a mostly prefolding family and I did not have snappis for my first and always had newborn blowout issues & dirty covers (using PF as a lay-in). With baby #2, we've been snappi-ing 100% and it makes a world of difference! Rarely a leak.
Sadly - the toddler size I got for my big girl just broke! I don't know if that is a common problem, but the lower prong's rubbery ring just ripped open.

And while it does look like it "tears" the cloth diaper once washed and dried they fibers are all back in place. It only looks like it tears if you have it too tight by the way. When used under a wrap you do not need to make it so tight. Use it to keep the diaper in place the wrap keeps the diaper on baby. Works wonderfully, where were these the last time I cloth diapered? Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Jessica on Wednesday 02 June, 2010 This is an essential product for prefolds. We started out not using a snappi or pins and just laying the prefold into the diaper cover. But poo got on every diaper cover whenever our newborn went. Once we started using a snappi we might be able to use one diaper cover all day. It's easy to use. I bought 3 just in case one broke or was lost as I didn't want to be without one! Rating: [3 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Jessica on Tuesday 11 May, 2010 Bought this in toddler size for my 28 lb. 2 year old to use with econobum diapers and prefold and it just didn't work. It seem very tight on her and she was uncomfortable with it. it put holes in the prefold as well. However I think if the prefolds were larger and a mabey a hemp type material this would have mabey worked but for us it just didn't. I still recomend this over using pins. It is probably good for smaller children and mabey a different type of prefold.

I started using pins until the Snappies were delivered, and all I can say now is how happy I am that these exist, and I'm pretty sure my grandmother would have loved them back when she had to cloth diaper 8 children! These really do make the job so much easier and safer. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by carla on Friday 05 March, 2010 After using pins with my other 6 children, these are a precious gift for my newborn. I love these, as a matter of fact; I just ordered 2 more! I could not stand it if I lost my only one. Please treat yourself and your baby; you won't be disappointed! Rating: [4 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by rebecca on Friday 08 January, 2010 Everyone should have one of these. I like it for when all my bamboo fitteds are dirty and I need to use a prefold because I can actually secure it around my son instead of just laying it in a cover. I've never attempted pins and probably never will since I have this! I only gave it a four because it is not my normal diaper routine to use it, I like fitteds with covers the best. My frugality prevents me from having enough fitteds though so I do have a few prefolds I use. Yay Snappi! Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Denise on Saturday 20 June, 2009 Love these! My baby's pre-folds fit so much better than with pins. I love the way the center prongs pull the center of the diaper up--really reduces sagging if it is stretched properly. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Bethany on Saturday 06 June, 2009 Love these! They are what inspired me to cloth diaper and I can get the prefolds nice and snug at the legs and torso with them. Use them under dappi nylon pants and thirsties fitted covers. They work great! Rating: [3 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Susan on Thursday 04 June, 2009 I have been using pins but finally got the snappi. I am not having as much success with it as others. I am using pull on covers. I find that after he has had his diaper on a while the snappi seems to let the diaper sag quite a bit. The pins seem to give him a trimmer and tighter fit not so much sagging. I would think the snappi would work great under a snap or velcro wrap style cover. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by senia on Tuesday 21 April, 2009 great quality. we've been using these for 9mths and they are great! they took the fear out of accidentally poking my daughter with a pin though you do have to still be careful because the teeth are pretty sharp (not good to accidentally step or sit on one). if only i could keep better track of them in our crazy house lol. i have lost about 4 of these so far so we have to go back to get more since i'm down to my last two. Rating: [4 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Natasha on Friday 03 April, 2009 I ordered the toddler size to use with the premium-size Indian prefold diapers. They fit fine together, and it was easy to figure out how to use the Snappi (I'd never seen one before). DEFINITELY beats the diaper pins I've used years ago when babysitting. (The Indian prefolds are so thick in comparison to old Birdseye diapers that it would be kind of hard to pin them, I think.)
My little boy did get hold of the Snappi (very fascinating, apparently) and it pinched his finger, so make sure you have a diaper cover on & keep curious fingers away.
I can't comment on how long these last, because I just got them. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Geri on Thursday 08 January, 2009 My husband and I both love our Snappi. I don't believe we could use prefolds without it. Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Tina on Monday 29 December, 2008 I have been CDing for about 4 months now and been using pins, until now, SNAPPIS rock and I will never go back to pins again! Thanks Cotton Babies...you are the only place I will EVER order online from again! Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Holly on Monday 01 December, 2008 Wonderful diaper fastener...just wish they had other colors besides white for toddlers : ) Rating: [5 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by tiffany on Wednesday 10 September, 2008 I love my snappis!!! Many older women that find out I cloth diaper always comment on how I must poke my fingers all the time, when I show them the snappi they are AMAZED, and very jealous they didn't have them around when they cloth diapered! :) Rating: [4 of 5 Stars!] Reviewed by Gretchen on Wednesday 09 July, 2008 I got one of these in my "try-it kit." They seem to work well for what they are made for, and are a neat idea! However, I don't use it. The wraps that are out there seem to hold the cloth diapers in place perfectly without it, and I'd rather not put something with such sharp teeth in my baby's diaper. I'd love to see an actual photo of these in use and recommendations for when/why to use them. View all 33 reviews |
