OsoCozy Prefolds are high-quality, super absorbent, and cost-effective. You can use them long after your baby is out of diapers.
Prefold diapers are layers of 100% cotton, bamboo, or hemp woven together in a durable square. These cloth diapers have maximum soaking capacity down the center, with thinner edges for easier folding. In the past, prefold was the luxury diaper.
When you purchase OsoCozy Prefolds, you will also need waterproof covers and fasteners. Thirsties Duo Wrap Cloth Diaper Cover is by far the best choice. The covers work seamlessly with OsoCozy and come in super-cute designs and colors. You can use the covers three to four times before washing. All you have to do is wipe clean between changes. The covers are breathable with an adjustable rise, making them fit well from newborn to toddlerhood. For fastening, Snappis make securing the prefolds easy and secure. I used Thirstie covers with OsoCozy for three years and never did one cover come apart or tear.
From newborn to potty training, the OsoCozy and Thirsties combo system cost about $225. The cost-savings make this cloth diaper system a smart choice. You can even use prefolds as burp rags or a water overflow catcher during bath time. The use lasts way after your kiddo is out of diapers.
OsoCozy Prefolds come in two different sizes and fabrics. As far as size goes, you'll need to start with size 1 for newborns to six months (6-18 pounds) and size 2 for bigger babies, although this will depend on the prefold fabric. Moms tend to purchase the bleached cotton, but the unbleached, 100% organic cotton is bigger and softer, and hides stains easier.
OsoCozy proclaims it's the best-selling cloth diaper on the internet. On one Amazon product page alone, OsoCozy has more than 800 reviews (average 4.4 out of 5 stars). One reviewer says, "I found that prefolds are the most consistently reliable — no leaks, rarely a blowout." I definitely agree: I used OsoCozy Prefolds with my babies, and you can't beat the cost savings, durability, and softness.
Pros: Low cost, super absorbent, soft, durable, multipurpose (baby and cleaning), less leakage, easy to clean
Cons: Folding makes quick changes harder, bulky baby bottom
