Charlie Banana Review & Giveaway

By On February 21, 2012 · 167 Comments

I have used and love Charlie Banana‘s sized pocket diapers so I was thrilled when they contacted me about doing a review and giveaway for their One Size diapers. I was even more excited when they sent me one of their Fashion Collection diapers designed by Matthew Langille. These diapers are so fun!

The Dirty Details:

Daytime Use: 4 Bums Up!

Overnight Use: 3.5 Bums Up!

Ease of Use: 4 Bums Up!

Quality: 5 Bums Up!

Overall: 4 Bums Up!

Daytime Use: I gave the Charlie Banana pocket diaper 4 Bums Up for daytime use. Like I mentioned, I’ve used the sized ones before and loved them. The one size diaper was no different! It works extremely well for day time use and we never have any leaks. I love the fit on The Gnome.

Overnight Use: The Charlie Banana gets 3.5 Bums Up for overnight use. It is slightly better than the average microfiber pocket for us and I love that it comes with two inserts. For babies over 1 year, you may need to add a doubler for overnight use.

Ease of Use: I gave the Charlie Banana 4 Bums Up for ease of use. I think that this is one of the easier one size diapers with inner adjustments. The adjuster is similar to a bra strap adjuster (and we all know how to use those) and it shows what size you are on! I like the S, M, L options much better than numbered options.

Quality: I gave the Charlie Banana diaper 5 Bums Up for quality. I love these diapers. The PUL and microfiber are both high quality. I adore the adjustable elastic and I love how easy they make it. Charlie Banana also has a pretty great philosophy.

Overall: 4 Bums Up overall. Charlie Banana remains one of my favorite pockets. I love how trim they are and their amazing quality. I recommend these diapers to a lot of moms who are looking for a pocket for skinny to average babies. They’re definitely on the upper end of the diapers that I’ve tried.
