Fuzzi Bunz vs. Bum Genius

[amberlbrowning]

thanks!

that helps alot!!!! :)

That is the fuzy bunz that came out before the one size the one size came out in 2009 and as far as I can see are the best diapers for the value. Elastic adjustable waist and legs. Comes with replacable elastic in case your original wears out. Comes with 2 micro fiber pads just like bumgenius a newborn and medium/ large one, and doubling these at night make for less night time leaks :) These diapers also have a high night time rating. So I think I am going with these :)

This is a great way to save money and be environmentally friendly. Other than the price (retail about 20.00 each), we love both of these and the ebay cheap ones. From a 178.00 investment, we made our money back in 6 weeks and I buy no more diapers.

[MsHelloKiti]

I get more use out of my BumGenius, just because I didn't have to buy larger sizes, I just bought the one diaper, that grew with my son. It saved money, and worked really well.

[Blueskywatcher]

I don't know if FB had this in '08 but now they have adjustable leg gathers which is absolutely essential for a great fit around the thighs. Really prevents leaks for babies with little thighs without having to squeeze their bellies. Oh, and it comes in a one-size now too. :-)

[dabbo83]

This really isn't a fair comparison. That's a Bum Genius One Size 3.0, but the FuzziBunz diaper is a Perfect Fit instead of their One Size version. The FuzziBunz One Size diapers also come with 2 inserts as well as extra elastics which can be adjusted. Either way, I use both Bum Genius and FuzziBunz.

I prefer sized FB over BGOS. OS are enormous on infants and don't last through PT (average for boys is 3.5 yrs; for most, the BG OS won't last that long). So, bulky on infants, great at 15-25 lbs, too small before PT.

Sized FB use 2 diapers through PT. Med=15-30 pounds. with thigh sizing, can be used longer than that (for most @35 lbs, sometimes more). My 27 mos 30 lb son is nowhere near out of mediums. So, with SM and MED FB, you're done.

Both are too big for the first month or two.

Don't forget to come back in one year with the same diapers

[cylla2006]

I absolutely adore FB they are easy to use great to wash I use an extra hemp insert and my boy is all set for at least 3 hours i double with two hemp insert at night never had a leak nothing and my boy skin stay dry even when they are soak I am completely converted to cloth diapers a little late after my second baby and when he was 7 months old and I deeply regret I did not try earlier

[gabbie427]

Thanks for sharing. I am seriously thinking about cloth diapering it and have heard wonderful things about both diapers, but after seeing your video, we are going with the Bum Genius.

[erikalynnwalsh]

Great info!!!!!! Thank you!!! New to CD and having my second in a few weeks!

[Rememberthe0511]

This is NOT a Fuzzi Bunz One-size... it is a Sized diaper...size Large.

[blissesmommy]

I don't know if they have changed the style or not, but the FB's come with 2 inserts, a newborn and a large. Also she doesn't show how to adjust the elastic in the legs at all for the FBs either.

[ck4b3d]

They did change the style recently, this is the older style.

[amber92980]

@ck4b3d actually this is the new diapers, the OS are the ones that come with 2 inserts, the one she is showing is a perfect size large, which only comes with the large insert.

[GlamEcoMama]

@blissesmommy Hey, i am starting with my videos and i WILL be showing and explaining on how to use these, especially the elastics. I will also be showing the "ebay cheepies" as well!

[khroudhjagdev]

is cloth diper avalible in markets

[ck4b3d]

In some areas you can purchase them in brick and mortar stores. I've ordered all mine off the internet.

[postcarboninstitute]

@ck4b3d How many stores are made of brick and mortar?

[TKMyatt]

Hey Thanks I was looking for a demo on this.

[ScribbleLikeMe]

Thanks! Just what I was looking for. I have a big one (2 yr old Max) and a little one too! Cute!

[geck50]

Thank you so much for that. I've been researching the bumgenius for my first baby due this august and it was nice to actually see first hand how it works. Thanks again. Much appreciated. ^__^

[loladooder99]

I use both on my 23lbs 30 inch+ tall 15 1/2 month old son. But the Bum genius 3.0 are becoming too small even though they say up to 30 lbs. So fuzzi bunz are a great option when your baby kids to big. The velcro can wear out according to reviews but it can easily be converted to a snap diaper like fuzzi bunz. I think both are great you just need to learn how much to stuff them in the beggining to not get leaks.

[ck4b3d]

It is the one size 3.0

[Veror0xursox]

thank You!

[Veror0xursox]

what type of BG is it? they have a few i think please let me know i like the one that you have online

[ck4b3d]

Both come with micro fiber inserts when purchased new. The BG's come with two inserts a "newborn" or doubler and a regular insert which has snaps and can be sized up or down, just like the diaper.

The FBs come with a regular insert appropriate for the diaper size.

The FBs are a trimmer fit but I prefer the BG inserts. I'm also fond of hemp babies inserts for the FBs. They are fantastic trim doublers and they keep the bulk down.

[Dahnah2008]

Thx for the video.

Can you tell me, please if they come with any insert at the beginning? Or should I buy them separately?

They do have a cover, no need for a separate one, right?

Thx a lot!

[JaneyMcLaney]

I can't say about the fuzzi bunz since I use the BGs. But with the BGs they come all in a kit... the physical diaper comes with a newborn and an adjustable insert. And you don't need a cover. the shell (actual diaper part) is waterproof and acts as both diaper and cover. They're great!

[ck4b3d]

If you do laundry daily 10-12 diapers should be enough to diaper through 35lbs

[danishka4jesus]

and for every other day, get twice as many :)

[gopinks]

how many bum genius one size diaper would you require for a three month old baby?

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

LOVE this question! We're in search for our 3 month old son. The elastic to all disposables are leaving a horrible rash around his thighs and waist.

[Nataliepratt]

thanks for this video showing how the inserts are inserted i had my inserts wrong. thanks again

[thehappyyellowbeetle]

thanks for doing this video. I am a fan of the BG's. I love em...now if i can just get my hubby to change a cloth diaper! :)

[lindlk78]

I've heard the disposable liners can make it more tolerable for someone uncomfortable with cloth. Imse Vimse sells some. You put it between your baby and the diaper. Easier for messy diapers. You just flush down the toilet

[sukirue]

We have both but I think I prefer the fuzzi bunz, they seem to have a bit more leg room and the elastic around the legs is softer.

We have chubby legged boys. : )

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

We're looking into FBs and BGs and until I saw ur comment I never thought about that... We are completely new to cloth diapering and my children have MASSIVE thighs (just look at my profile on here) We've had to avoid a lot of products simply b/c their legs can't fit, like the bumbo for example. After seeing this video I thought the BGs looked better, but u really think the FBs are better for chubby thighs?

[sukirue]

With our boys the FB's seem better for their chubby legs. We have used both types of cloth diapers for awhile now and I think I like the fuzzi's better over all.

[saraholson3boys]

Looks like the BG's are better for my fam, nice to see what they're like before I buy!
