Summary: 3 Stars
I've been a "Huggies Mom" for the last decade, but now that I'm expecting my 4th (and last) child, I've been taking a look-back at diapers for both my 2 year-old son and my soon-to-be-born son. When Mars was born, this Huggies Mom was gifted with Swaddlers, and I liked the entire premise of them: They had very flexible tabs, an interesting looking clothish mesh liner (reminiscent of Always maxis --- that should have been my first clue), and seemed to fit him well. They also seemed to handle "blowouts" as well as if not better than Huggies. Unfortunately, that mesh liner gave his tiny butt a rash like I'd never seen on my other children (they'd been Huggies kids from the start). Switched back to Huggies, and voila. Rash gone.
Fast-forward to now: I ran out of my fabulous Costco Kirkland diapers and haven't been able to get to the nearest town with a Costco to replenish the supply, so I decided to buy through Amazon (cheaper than at my local Albertson's, which is the only option here in my town). The price for both Huggies Supreme and Pampers Cruisers was decent; I bought the Huggies based on experience, but also a box of Pampers Cruisers based on the ratings here and the statements of how great they were for boys.
Suffice it to say, my son's review immediately: "It's too tight!"
The Cruisers have that neat flexible tab, however, they must run smaller than Huggies or something because I couldn't wrap the tab around my son's hips like I usually did; he'd complain that the diaper was on too tight. So I'd loosen them until he said, "That's better."
His next review: "My belly hurts! It hurts my belly!"
I checked to see what he was referring to: The hard and rather sharp wrap tabs of the Cruisers would poke him in the belly when he sat up or bent at the waist unless I'd placed them "Just So" each time precisely on the diaper. I'm used to Huggies' tabs: They're soft with rounded edges, and it doesn't matter where you put them on the diaper to close.
But the review that cinched that I wouldn't be buying Cruisers for my eldest boy again: "My butt hurts!" or what every parent likes to hear: "My penis hurts!"
The mesh lining gave him that rash *again*. I'd thought that since he was older now, that his skin might be less sensitive to whatever was in the Swaddlers that gave him the red spotted rash. I was mistaken. His butt and perineal area and sometimes even on his scrotum and penis glans would frequently have red areas, no matter how often I changed him. (Thank god for Baby Aquaphor!) I'd never had that problem with Huggies or Kirkland for that matter.
I did buy a small package Newborn Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive in addition to my usual Huggies Supreme for when my second son is born, based on the rave reviews it received. Every child is different, and who knows, they might work for this one. But if that rash comes back even once, that will be *it* for me and Pampers.

No leaking and less diaper rashes when we use these. Great at wicking away moisture so that baby feels dry. Holds up very well at nightProduct Review: BAD NEW DESIGN!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
My daughter is 30 months and Pampers are the only brand we've ever liked. Until now! The new cruisers design got rid of the mesh liner, the liner is shorter in the back of the diaper, they constantly leak, and they smell awful. I kept noticing the change in the diaper when I bought from different stores, but now I see that they have all changed to this new lower quality diaper. I can smell the awful chemical smell every time my daughter pees in the diaper. When I go to change her I notice that the diaper feels damp on the outside as if it is leaking through the diaper. Her skin seems to be getting irritated very easily from the diaper as well.
I'm very unhappy with the new design. I don't understand how Pampers can pass this off as a new high performance diaper. It's awful. We have a baby due at the end of March and I'm not even going back to Swaddlers. I'm on the search now to find a better diaper.
Product Review: Best Diaper - 4 Boys
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter has 4 boys (5 years, 3 years, 20 months, and 3 months), so she knws a thing or two about disposable diapers. Well, to make a long story short, she's tried so many, but says that these are the best at providing leakage protection and fit.
If your baby has needs for an adorable, family-oriented children's book, I recommend Ladybug Baby Bug by Janice and Mark Perkins. Ladybug Baby Bug
Product Review: Best Diapers Ever!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a simple choice. That live and learn commercial should apply to these diapers. My sister has three children, she tried about every type out there and settled on these because they were the only ones that didn't "blow out." She is extremely cheap, so if she buys the more expensive diapers then you know they are worth it. We tried the ones in the hospital, but when we tried these we donated the others and never looked back. They don't cause diaper rash (and we have sensitive skin and can't use Huggies products). They don't leak (when we have two leaks in one week we know it is time to move up a size, we literally will go a month or more without a leak). And they stay on (well until our 30 month-old figured out how to remove them, but she is ready to potty train anyway). They are definately worth it!!
