This is the exact reason (well, one of the many, many reasons!) why we don't distribute FBs anymore! The sizing and quality was too inconsitent so we weren't happy to sell them on to our customers. It's such a shame because the old FBs (the ones I bought in late 2005) were perfect

Is there a website I can check out the honey child ones? I have never seen them.
I love my baby harmonys I can't stop buying them and the inserts are the best. Jack fits a medium quite happily. Hate my pocket change can never get the inserts to sit right and they end up poking out the top and back. Foxybots are the best for cuteness I always get loads of comments about them.

I would actually have to say the Fuzzi's over the HC's. I have had to stop using the small HC's as Sam can't fit them anymore and yet she is only on the second snap of the small fuzzis. They are just as good as each other in relation to performance, but with a wriggly baby 2 snaps per side is hard enough let alone trying to get a 3rd done up

RachandJack - www.honeychild.co.nz I think
Mum2Sam - Harry would be going straight into mediums (he fits them now.. sure he's got a big butt but they don't leak) so I guess they'd last a fair while longer than the smalls. Could I just not do up the 3rd snap?
Yeah the wriggly baby thing would be a good reason to go with Happy Heiny wouldn't it? And that it's easier for other people to know how to do up.
I guess the downside with them is that older babies can undo them. But then I was looking on one website and it said they could put snaps on them for $1 - just one on each side (the aplix is still there). I was wondering why on earth you would want that, then realised it's probably for that very reason. So I guess that's an option.
Right gotta get ready to go out (it takes so long these days!)

lol I found this as well, trying to get an extra snap done up is such a mission on Daniel esp since it's way out the side and he always rolls whichever side I'm trying to do up.
I think I've tried most nappies out there now

It's actually the old style that I have. I had the lady I bought them off in the USA fish out any old-style USA-made large Fuzzis and send them to me. I found that the mediums were inconsistent too but the difference seems to be more noticable in the larges.
Anyone found any inconsistency with HC sizing?

We find the snaps on Honeychild soo hard to do up. And thats without doing the extra one as we don't even bother.
We LOVE the original FB before they sent them to Mexico and stuffed them up.
LOVE Foxybots. They so neat

I love my fuzzis, both old style USA and the Mexico ones - only slight issue with the mexico ones in my stash is that they seem to be tighter around the legs, but only by one snap so it's just a case of doing them up a bit looser. No biggie! Haven't tried Honeychild, but am so happy with fuzzis I don't feel like I need to. Maybe you should buy one of each and see what you think?
I liked drybees too, until someone learned how easy velcro can be undone. Now it's snaps all the way for us!

Yep that's our website 
And yep - mediums are definitely the most cost affective size. Caitlin went into her mediums at 5 months and is still in them with heaps of growing space
And about the 3rd snap. You don't have to do them up. If Miss C is in a particularly wriggly mood I leave them too
