Topic: Honey Child or Fuzzibunz? Posted: 04 March 2008 at 5:20pm |
Well I'd always said we'd go into pockets when Harry fitted the mediums, and I put one on him this afternoon (HC) and it fits!
So I was just wanting an honest opinion from people...
Which is better, honey child or fuzzibunz? And why?

Love happy heiny pockets. Like not having snaps, especially when Isla is at daycare, or being looked after by someone not so used to using snapped on nappies. They usually end up putting them on way too loose!

I haven't used HC but I love Fuzzi's. I have the dreaded "Mexico" Fuzzi's and I have had no problems with them at all. Now I don't use all that many I am sticking to my fuzzi's and looking at selling the rest.

*gets cheerleading pom poms out*
GO HONEYCHILD!!!!!!
There are SO many good points about the HC naps!
* More generous fit than a Fuzzi (Harry will fit them longer)
* Upper Wing snap - so no wing droop (makes the nappy leak)
* Drywick microfleece is better than the old FB microfleece as it draws moisture away from the skin faster
* HC inserts are more absorbent that the Fuzzi inserts
* HC offer a 30 day right of return if you really don't like them (Not many companies offer you that)
* 12 month warranty
* You'll be supporting KIWI MADE!!!!
Let me know if you have any other questions, you can email me here

I really like Baby Harmony naps, they too have a generous fit and the rise is quite high too. I'm dissappointed with Joeleze though - gorgeous nappies but shocking wing droop!

We've got HC's and Fuzzis and to be honest I think they're much of a muchness, both really good nappies.
I also heart the Happy Heiny's, they're my fave nappies and it sucks that I can't use them atm coz the gremlins just take them straight off, I have to put them in snaps to foil their striptease efforts. But roll on winter when they're wearing pants and they'll be back in their HH's!

apparently she has been doing some modifications and has fixed her wing droop!

Oh has she? Do you think she can do something about the 2 I have to stop it from happening? I really love the nappy but it leaks something shocking!

I like Honeychild and Baby Harmony, they are my favs! They are really roomy and as someone said about BH having a high rise, really good!

I used medium USA-made Fuzzis on Leo from 5-16mths and LOVED them. But the larges aren't as good a fit, they are heaps bigger than the mediums and there is a real variance in sizes within the size. In a large I much prefer HC, although they are SO expensive (I imported my Fuzzis from the USA) and the inserts take longer to dry (and have gone really grey, whereas my Fuzzi inserts have stayed white).
I love Foxybots for nights as they are really waterproof, although bulkier for days (but look and feel gorgeous!!!).

Interesting to hear others comment that Baby Harmony are roomy, I've found ours to be quite small fitting. the gremlins are on the loosest snaps of their medium BH's and yet on their Fuzzis/HC's they're still almost on the tightest.

I found Baby Harmony quite small too, might have old ones.

Thanks for all the info and opinions!!
Well the trial run of the Honeychild went well! And I looked at the rest of my wee 'stash' and realised he now fits the Tweedle and Ecobubs too... so we're trying them out as well.
So at the mo it now seems between HC and HH. I'm gonna get a Happy Heiny to try before I make my decision - a trip over the Snazzipants store I think!
