**CONGRATS, ELISHA & CAROLINE!**
Recently I reviewed the new Tiny Tush hemp fitted and gave it a thumbs up for absorbency and cost. I stand behind my recommendation but I have found a hemp fitted that works much better on my skinny guy that nurses all night lately
.
Pooters cloth diapers is owned by a sweet and super helpful (she answers many questions on my Facebook fan page) mama named Maj. Maj owns and operates an online and a brick & mortar cloth diaper retail store in Carrollton, TX (not quite opened yet). I wish she would have been there when I lived in the area!
Maj’s journey into the cloth diaper world was natural, as her and her husband were “greenies” before baby arrived. Not sure if “greenies” is a word but it’s a compliment.
When their son was born they faced the same issues we all experienced. A completely foreign world with very incoherent language. To a newbie what in the world is a fitted, snappi, stay-dry, AI2- all in two, dry/wet pail…and don’t even get started with the confusing abbreviations found on the Diaperswappers FSOT (for sale or trade).
All those terms and abbreviations on top of leaking diapers can lead a new parent straight to disposables.
Anyways, I digress. Maj knew she could come up with an easy solution for everyone. A simple solution.
Here is an excerpt from the letter that Maj sent me:
My feature product is the Pooters One Size Organic Hemp Fitted diaper (MSRP $14.00). This diaper is a real workhorse- super absorbent, naturally antibacterial, and when paired with a great fleece or wool cover, makes for a great overnight cloth diapering pairing.
I love a workhorse diaper. That way I don’t feel a bit sad when it gets stained or excessively used. I also love an inexpensive diaper. Yes, Pooters cloth diapers are made in China. I realize that there are some cloth diaper companies that take very good care of their overseas employees.
My review details
Fabric: I’m not familiar with the names and terms that go with different fabrics. If you say hemp I think that always means the same thing. Apparently, I’m wrong. Pooters hemp is a course hemp as opposed to the Tiny Tush Trim which was soft. I prefer the Pooters. Reason is, I don’t like too much stretch and I “feel” like it absorbs more.
Fit: Really, this is silly, but I sort of want to cry that FINALLY someone made a snap configuration that is PERFECT for my child. Can you sense that I’m grinning right now? I am. If you have a skinny child Pooters will be perfect for you. If you have a chunky one it’ll probably fit the same
My problem with the Tiny Tush was that I could almost wrap the tabs around Sterling’s waist. This is great if you need the extra room.
Absorbency: Sterling has been nursing C.O.N.S.T.A.N.T.L.Y. lately. In case I wasn’t clear, I’m an open-all-night milk bar, sort of against my selfish will. We all know that the more you drink the more you pee. A doubled up Flip works fine but is super bulky. Pooters is trim (like most hemp diapers) and yet absorbs a ton.
I will be totally honest with you, right after (like literally) I posted my review on Tiny Tush Sterling started nursing all night. After a night of this the Tiny Tush was over-saturated and consequently soaked the Thirsties cover.
I haven’t had this happen with Pooters yet…I say yet because you just never know what great feat my son will tackle tonight
It’s worth noting that I only washed the Pooters hemp one time before using it.
Cost: $12. Heck, I spend more than that on my family at Starbucks. Which is pathetic, I know. At $12 it’s worth the gamble, and you know nighttime cloth diapering is just that- a gamble.
To help spread the word about Pooters cloth diapers, Maj has offered to give 1 away to you! But, that’s not all *must say in the proper commercial voice* I am giving one away to you also!
I will randomly select a name on Friday (4/16/10). Here are the ways you can enter: **separate comments**
1) Become a fan of Pooters cloth diapers on Facebook
2) Head on over to Pootersdiapers.com and tell me your favorite brand she is currently carrying…
3) Tell me what she needs to carry!
4) Link to All About Cloth Diapers on a forum or discussion board. http://www.allaboutclothdiapers.com

I love that she has a nighttime diapering section. One of my new favorites, that she carries, is the Thirsties duo wrap.
April 14, 2010 at 12:43 pm
she should sell rock n green

It looks like the only thing I have on her site is a Snappi! I would love to try the Pooters diaper. I love Bummis wraps with snaps and velcro, and I love the Bummis pull on covers, so I always want to see those on a diaper store!
April 14, 2010 at 11:28 am
i like the pooters fitteds look to be the best thing she offers atleast the most interesting to a newbie like me who still is having problems.
April 14, 2010 at 10:37 am
P.S. Anyone out there know where I can download a pattern for wool covers? I found one once, but have yet to find it again. Thanks in advance.

My two granddaughters (4.5 and 2.5) have always worn and are still wearing disposables (grrrr), but there was no way I could convince my daughter on cloth. Once my son announced “they” were expecting, I offered to make cloth diapers for the baby due in early June. So, I’m currently making two dozen diapers based on the Grasshopper style/fabric which you recommended and I agreed look like a fantastic diaper. Hopefully my daughter-in-law will agree after she tries them out on new baby (hope its a boy! shhh). Because I’ve read (your newsletters) that you need a variety of styles and fits and absorbency, I’ve become a fan of Pooters on Facebook. They look like they can hold lots! Hopefully after trying one (wink wink) I will stay a fan. And, I’m thinking that it would definitely be worth purchasing a half dozen instead of making them because it was such a hassle to get the different fabrics and snapper and snaps etc here in Canada. Thanks for making it a lot easier to learn about the “world of cloth diapers” via your newsletter.

Maybe she should carry hemp doublers. I also like microfleece liners

I became a facebook fan, I look forward to trying out a pooters diaper.
I like that they are offering a pack of 50 quarter folded easy to use perforated sheets for $1.00 with a purchase of one diaper.
April 13, 2010 at 10:21 pm

April 13, 2010 at 9:25 pm
I checked out the Pooters website, and haven’t really tried a lot of what she carries in her inventory. I would be interested in trying a Pooters fitted. I currently really like using BG bamboo fitteds with an Imse Vimse organic cotton cover.

April 13, 2010 at 8:49 pm
My favorite brand that she carries now is probably Thirsties, (duo wrap) I love them and NEVER have leaks!
April 13, 2010 at 8:48 pm
I think she should carry Rockin’ Green. It is (in my opinion) the BEST CD safe laundry detergent ever.
April 13, 2010 at 8:33 pm
She should add softbums and bumware extremes
April 13, 2010 at 8:33 pm
My favorite on her site is thirsties
April 13, 2010 at 8:21 pm
She needs to carry Rockin’ Green Detergent. It’s THE BEST detergent out there for washing your fluff. And over almost 3 years of CDing, I’ve tried a ton of other brands.
April 13, 2010 at 8:20 pm
I love the Rocky Mountain One Size Pockets. They are trim, cute, and keep the business INSIDE the diaper where it belongs. A great day diaper with a BG OS insert.

I think she should get some cloth products for moms! Nursing pads… mama cloth etc!
April 13, 2010 at 7:41 pm
I became a fan on facebook and, though I haven’t used many of her products, I like Thirsties and, if Pooters nighttime works for us, I will love love love them! Still searching (lately rather despondently) for the perfect night-time diaper. From your review, it sounds like this could be it!

I like the minky Gen-Y covers. The Pooters fitted shows a doubler, but the description doesn’t say if it’s included in the price. Is it? What a great deal! About the same price as a Cricket’s…how would you say it compares?
April 13, 2010 at 6:31 pm
My favourite brand that Pooters carries is Thirsties – their diaper covers have never failed me!
April 13, 2010 at 6:12 pm
I became a fan on facebook of pooters (love the name by the way) and I use thristies duo wrap for my little one.
April 13, 2010 at 5:41 pm
Im in Carrollton!! I wonder when the store will open up? I love CD shopping in person its so nice to not wait and pay for shipping for fluff mail.
April 13, 2010 at 5:37 pm
I’d like to try it- but I don’t know, every hemp diaper I’ve ever tried felt scratchy to me, and seemed to hold in smells…..
I have found an inexpensive “workhorse” diapering system that works so well right now on my 4 month old daughter- motherease sandy’s! I also have a few motherease one size dipes, love them too. Their airflow snap covers are also great b/c no hook-and-loop closures that get worn out, like my bummis covers would. So I just fold an infant size (up to 15 lbs) prefold and stick it into a sandy’s diaper, and viola! Super-absorbent night-time solution, for a baby that nurses through the night. I have cloth-diapered 3 children so far, and finally found the perfect diapers for us
Sorry to turn this into a review LOL
April 13, 2010 at 5:32 pm
Well, after such glowing review, I would say my fave brand Pooters carries is Pooters
Curious though, I wonder if after much use/wash, will encounter the dreaded “hemp-stink”?
April 13, 2010 at 5:20 pm
Just starting cloth diapering and I LOVE the thirsties duo covers that are for sale on Pooters. I also became a fan on facebook! Thanks for such a great website
April 13, 2010 at 4:56 pm
Thanks for the tip on Pooters. Another diaper to add to my “addiction”. P.S. Became a fan on FB.
April 13, 2010 at 4:55 pm
I think she should carry some hemp inserts for the pockets and some stay-dry doublers/liners for the fitteds.
April 13, 2010 at 4:53 pm
I think the Pooters pockets look fabulous, might have to try one!
April 13, 2010 at 4:48 pm
Went right over to FB and became a fan of Pooters.

My little one is not due until 05/06/2010, so I haven’t had a chance to determine what is my favorite brand yet, but as mentioned above, I would also love to try out the Bummas Wipes that are currently available on her site.
April 13, 2010 at 4:15 pm

I think that since her own name-brand product is a super absorbent diaper that’s great for nighttime she should consider carrying not only fleece soakers but also wool- maybe Aristocrats or Disana soakers. Or Woolybottoms footies! YUM

My fav. thing she carries is the Dancing Bears fleece soaker. Bulletproof!
April 13, 2010 at 3:16 pm
I would like to see more brands of covers and more types of wet bags.
April 13, 2010 at 3:15 pm
Actually the only brand she carries that I’ve tried is the Country Save detergent…which, at least for now, I love!
April 13, 2010 at 3:13 pm
I agree with the others that she needs to carry Rockin’ Green detergent. I also think she should carry Northern Essence products.
April 13, 2010 at 3:11 pm
My fav brand that she carries is the Dancing Bears Fleece Soaker. Right now we are using one just about every night to catch the overflow (still working on our perfect night solution!).
April 13, 2010 at 3:04 pm
I am a facebook fan of Pooters. I checked out her site and it’s pretty thorough. I would say that of all the diapers she carries I would definitely want to try the pooters fitted. It is such a reasonable price, especially for an organic diaper. I think that she should carry some rockin green!
April 13, 2010 at 3:00 pm
I LOVE the look and PRICE of that fitted diaper! As a mom who has yet to dry cloth diapers at night, that price makes me want to!
April 13, 2010 at 2:59 pm

April 13, 2010 at 2:58 pm
Definitely carry Rockin’ Green detergent and possibly diaper pails since she already has liners—to make it a one stop shop!
April 13, 2010 at 2:42 pm
I will say she should carry Nifty Nappy diapers and wool. http://www.Niftynappies.com She just started selling retail. I love the diapers!!

she should think about carrying more types of wetbags, especially some that are wet/dry!
April 13, 2010 at 1:35 pm
I love that she has a starter pack! I have seen a few other websites that have these and really wish I had run across one when I was starting to cloth diaper. I think it is a great chance for someone to try out different ways to cloth diaper!
April 13, 2010 at 1:31 pm
After looking through all of her brands, I think the Pooters One Size Fitted is my favorite. It seems like the most bang for your buck.

I love the way the Bummas wipes look! Are these exclusive to Pooters? I would love to get some (but preferably from a store in Canada)…
April 14, 2010 at 1:22 am
Thank you all so much for your compliments and suggestions. To answer a few questions I saw on this post:
1. Bummas Wipes are not exclusive to Pooters. They can also be purchased online via Amazon.com. Here’s the link: http://www.amazon.com/Bummas-After-Wipe-Before-Cloth/dp/B002XEY2MS
2. Unfortunately my diapers are only available in the US and I am unable to ship to out of the country.
