ALVABABY 6PCS Cloth Diaper Inserts 5-Layers Super Soft Inserts

Leaving 4 stars because I haven't had a chance to use these on a baby yet [our daughter is due to arrive any day now], but tested them and they absorbed a lot of liquid before leaking. They DO need to be washed several times before use to improve absorbency. Basically I soaked these for 48 hours in tide and water [they do run color so I switched the water out for fresh hot water abd soap every 8-12 hours] then I ran them through the washer 4 times, three of those times I used soap the last I just wanted to make sure ANY RESIDUE was gone. They aren't leaking dye anymore when they get wet and their absorbency quadrupled. Do no use fabric softener with these! I washed inserts in hot water, I prefer to air dry but medium heat no dryer sheets works great too. If these hold up well I will make sure I update my rating to reflect that. Just be sure to do a diaper strip method on them before you wash them the first few times and you won't have any issues. Tide is my goto for my diapers it came highly recommended by a friend because it's gentle enough for cloth diapers but strong enough to strip any residue put of your fabrics: ] Edit: two months of cloth diapering later and we just started using these for overnights. We breast feed so sometimes the two of us will sleep nurse through the night instead of waking fully. These inserts are great for overnight and super absorbent. They can usually make it from the midnight diaper change to 8am. :] they dont smell, i havent had to strip them again yet, but we also do a cycle with soap and a cycle without soap. We are about to order another 12 pack as our daughter is starting to outgrow our 3 layer microfiber inserts!

I started using cloth diapers with bamboo inserts when my kiddo was around 1 month old. They have saved us so much money by switching from disposables. These seem very similar to the inserts that come with the Wegreeco brand cloth diapers, and both work well. Some of the inserts have developed some faint stains that will probably clear up easily in the sun; the pocket diapers themselves are still stain-free and snowy white inside! I much prefer using bamboo inserts over the microfiber kind for several practical reasons: - they are softer on my hands when I am stuffing them into the pocket diapers every night; the microfiber feels slickly plush at first but ultimately leaves my fingertips feeling raw. - they seem to absorb much better than the microfiber inserts, which became mandatory as my baby grew. Where the microfiber ones are always sodden and gushy, the bamboo ones just expand a bit and feel damp. - I can tell more quickly when they are wet, as they feel stiffer and bulkier when wet; microfiber inserts only become a limp, soggy mess that requires me touching the liner to check if it’s wet (ew). - microfiber is not breaking down in the environment/oceans and is currently alarming a lot of people as it's getting back into our drinking water and we have no idea how it will impact our bodies over time. It might be benign, or it might be killing us (I mean, people used to use radioactive material as fashion makeup until they realized it was dangerous). So, I will try to cut down on microfiber/plastics where I can!

Update: using them for 6 months and I still LOVE THEM. They’re so absorbent. I just ordered 2 more sets so I can use these are my liners in all my diapers. And use the microfiber ones that come with the diapers as cleaning cloths. I LOVE THESE!!!! My cloth diaper friends told me that microfiber eventually sucks, so I decided to look for bamboo and charcoal as she said they’re the best. These are phenomenal. Even when super full (like overnight) there’s no leakage. I do use two liners overnight, so that we don’t need to do a diaper change. 😇. When washed, they’re dry basically immediately and I haven’t noticed any smell lingering. Although, to be fair I haven’t noticed any lingering smell on any of the diapers or inserts. I do wash with vinegar and use just the tiniest bit of detergent, since I really don’t want to go have to go through a stripping process. I order two orders of these and will be ordering more once the microfiber ones completely fail me.

These ALVABABY cloth diaper inserts have been a game-changer for our cloth diaper routine, providing exceptional absorbency at a fraction of the cost of premium brand inserts. The 4-layer construction offers impressive liquid retention that keeps baby comfortable through longer stretches, including overnight use when paired with additional boosters. What impressed me most is how well these inserts hold up wash after wash. After six months of regular use and hundreds of wash cycles, they maintain their absorbency and structure without becoming thin, stretched out, or developing odor retention issues. The quality rivals much more expensive alternatives while providing significant cost savings for parents building a cloth diaper stash. The super soft texture is gentle against baby's skin without the rough or scratchy feel that some budget inserts can develop over time. They fit well in various pocket diaper brands and one-size systems, providing versatility across different diaper styles. The trim profile doesn't create excessive bulk while still delivering the absorption needed for active babies and toddlers. The 12-piece pack provides excellent value for establishing or expanding a cloth diaper collection. Having plenty of inserts on hand means maintaining consistent diaper changes without running short between wash days. The quantity allows for proper rotation that extends the life of each insert. The washing and drying performance is excellent - they agitate well in the machine for thorough cleaning and dry relatively quickly compared to thicker, denser inserts from other brands. Highly recommend for cloth diapering families on a budget - these deliver reliable performance and durability that make cloth diapering more accessible without sacrificing quality or baby's comfort.

We've been using cloth diapers for 19mo. After heeding advice from many online, we tried several different liners to see which ones were our favorite. Hands down, these are certainly THE BEST liners! Here's why: 1. We didn't get the dry time concept before the initial purchase of a variety of liners. Alva are superior in their dry time! When you wash diapers every other day or every three days, you don't want to have to dry the liners twice (many hemp & bamboo liners, no matter the brand, require drying on low for 100-120 minutes). Alva dry super fast on low. They can be line dried quickly, too! 2. They absorb more than the other liners that we've tried, by far. They hold the moisture without getting "heavy. When wet, they are still flexible so baby can move comfortably until changed. 3.They are naturally cream-colored and stay that way. We've never had any Alva diaper liners come out of the wash stained (grant it, you have to know how to wash cloth diapers). We say this comparing them to the many other brands that take on the same abuse and look embarrassingly "used" after the same wash. The only draw back to Alva is that as the baby grows, the diaper snaps change to lengthen the diaper for a continued fit of a growing baby. Alva have been a perfect length until recently (7-24lbs). [Note 7-10lbs: tuck an end over & it's not a noticeable difference to baby.] Now, Alva liners just aren't long enough. At night, if the liner isn't far enough forward, it won't catch the urine when she sleeps on her tummy. The same is true if she's on her back and the liner is too far forward. We are doubling the Alva with a longer liner (brand unnamed as the other liners are terrible). At least the longer, thin cotton liners, wick the moisture to the Alva diapers and do a relatively decent job. All in all, we still recommend Alva. We haven't found anything better.

I tried to use Zorb fabric to make my own inserts and they always leaked. I was ready to give up on cloth diapers. So I ordered these inserts and my gosh do they make a difference!! I’ve only used them for 3 days of diapering, but not a single leak yet. I haven’t used them overnight yet, we typically use disposables overnight. I might be willing to give it a try after reading these other reviews. I washed them once before use as recommended. Based on other reviews it sounds like they’ll get even more absorbent the more I wash/ dry them. They’re so effective so I ordered another set. I also ordered the hemp ones directly from the Alva baby website since the price is much better. That shipping takes longer though. Would definitely recommend!! *****Update after using them for a week They still work great! The hemp ones took 9 days to arrive to my house in Oregon when I ordered directly from Alva baby’s website. Shipping from Amazon is much faster for the hemp ones, but they cost a lot more.

We just started with cloth diapering and these are amazing! They do not stain easily and are nice and absorbent. We haven't had any leaks, and his skin is so much clearer than when we used disposable diapers. We have been using pocket diapers with a microfiber insert and this charcoal bamboo insert layed on top. We ended up buying a second pack and use one in each diaper. They wash easily. We run 2 cycles with all cloth diapering supplies and have no issues with retained smells!

First of all. I am new to clothes diapering I am on my 3rd child and have always used disposable diapers. I loved the idea of cloth diapering but I thought it was too complicated and would be a lot of work (dont get me wrong it is more work than just rolling up a diaper and throwing it away.) However it is more cost efficient and eco friendly. Cloth diapers also grow with your little one so they last you a long time and if you plan on having more kiddos in the future then you get the idea HAND ME DOWNS! I started clothes diapering nearly a week ago after doing some research on how it all works and decided to order these inserts not knowing what to expect. I just tried one for the first time last night on my son i put one in the pocket of thr diaper and one in the diaper and my son didnt leak at all! He slept from 6pm to 6am ..yall thats 12 hours and no leaks! 👏 👏 👏 im very impressed with this product and im glad I invested. This has encouraged me to continue forward with my clothes diapering journey and not to give up with the frustrations of leaks as I had issues with other types of inserts. 10/10 recommend this product.

Me gusta. Evita escurrimientos de orina

Excelente producto, de muy buena calidad, absorción y suavidad. La piel de mi bebé lo agradece.

I was really moved by the performance of the product. It's such good absorbent that, we find it hard to get dried after washing, lol... All I've got to say is, this is way better than using disposable diapers...

Super absorbent, durable, soft on the skin and easy to clean/wash. Highly recommend it.

I went with the decision to purchase reusable nappy rather than use 100% disposable nappies, but after doing my research I came to conclusion I would need additional padding to absorb wees. This product is just as good if not better than some of the other boosters I have tried. And I highly recommend this & will be purchasing more for baby #2 as my only complaint was that I did not order enough the first time around. They are really soft & easy to wash. Summary: Quality: Really good. Shipping Time: As Expected. Value for Money: Absolutely! As Pictured: Yes. Would I Order Again?: Yes. I will be for baby #2
