Disposables - Which do you prefer and why

I use huggies. I've tried treasures, pams, budget & babylove but none were as good for my boy.
I got a box of like 81 is it? for $35 at the warehouse about 3 weeks ago. They last ages coz I only use them at night.

I used huggies until switching to cloth part time at 8 months. I found they were the best and didnt leak or cause nappy rash. But they are the most expensive. I still use huggies for night time.

When i do use disposables during the day i just buy budget. The work well for DD, ive also used these overnight on occasion but that was closer to 2 years old. I dont know how they would handle a younger child overnight. They are only $5.50 a pack of 20ish nappies. So one of the cheaper ones.

Treasures & pams have never worked for us. They leak.And i have tried home brand once and they stunk. We didnt even use a full packet because you could always smell urine and not because i left dd in it for ages, when she would go it would stink the house out. Really nasty unlike other nappies which ive never had that problem

I haven't noticed this, I did with Budget though! But I have noticed that if she's in it overnight and done a very full nappy sometimes she gets 'crystals' on her bum like jelly crystals - know disposables have crystals in them to absorb the pee but these are the only nappies I've found that do this...

we are fully disposable for my 6mo DS and treasures have always worked well for us - no problems with nappy rash or leakage. Bucking the trend, I'm not keen on treasures - I find they smell wet after even the tiniest pee, and when I go in to the nursery to get DS up from a nap all I can smell is dirty nappy.

We do Homebrand here too (disposables overnight only). They do smell like wee quite quickly sometimes, but I think I have noticed that with other brands too (can't for the life of me remember which!). They hardly ever leak though!

I have found Huggies to be completely useless for us, such a waste of money. They leaked the most out of any of the nappy brands we've tried (which is just about all of them).

We use huggies but now im starting to use treasures during the day and huggies for naps/overnight. I find huggies last the longest, hold the most and havent leaked or given K rashes BUT they are so expensive.
Have been thinking about trying pams/homebrand/budget to see what they're like

Recommend you try others! Never know until you try!

It's quite funny - we talked about this in my coffee group and a lot of the mums said they only used huggies because it was a. more expensive so surely the 'best' and b. because that was really the one brand that they saw everywhere in advertising etc.

We use Pams during the day - stock up when they are on sale at $3.99 and when you're buying for twins cost matters. Use Treasures at night. I stock up big time when they are on sale, almost embarrassing when you see my trolley sky high with nappies. Still, they don't expire!

Have tried the budget nappies but they got nappy rash with them (only ones that has happened with) and the Signature Select were good but I tend to shop at New World or Pak n Save so there equivalent is Pams

We use to use treasures as DD leaked out of huggies at night time when she was little but now fits huggies better than treasures!

We also used Pams for a few months mixed with treasures and found DD was getting a persisent nappy rash that didnt go away until I started using huggies consistently and we haven't had it back since.

We are in disposibles full time unless its just before bath time and i chuck her in a cloth nappy.

I use treasures with DD and huggies with DS2, huggies seem to give DD a rash, where Treasures doesnt, but the treasures NB nappies leak instantly with DS2, and huggies can be fastened anywhere, allowing it to be adjusted for smaller babies. I bought a box of 108 for $28 thanks to a $5 off voucher AND being on special just before having baby (plus had a LOT of samples from P&C show from the last 2 years lol) and havent even used half the box yet, and a pack of 20 nappies in DDs size will just about last a week, I tend to buy 2 or 3 packs when they are $10 or under and that usually gets us through til they are on special again
