There are better brands, don’t waste your money on these.
I recently bought a few of these to add to my cloth nappy stash, mostly because of the prints and trusted the raving reviews.
I have been using modern cloth nappies on my babies for over three years and I have to say these are the worst I’ve used in terms of ease of use.
To start with, the outer patterned PUL fabric is very cheap/poor quality, making the nappies time consuming and very difficult to stuff with the inserts because they just get caught on the inside. Not good when you have better things to do rather than waste time stuffing napp...Read more

Love them
We only started using these when bub was about 4 weeks old as, even on the smallest setting, we found them too chunky for him to the point he would roll to the side with them on! However now we are using them during the days full time and love them! The washing is not a problem as we do washing every day anyway. The liners are super soft and covers are well stitched to prevent leaks. I’ve just ordered a few more plus the wet bag to keep some back ups in the nappy bag. Highly recommend.

Don't Bother - Twice the price of other nappy brands and a leaking nightmare with terrible customer service
I purchased the trial pack $69 when my baby was born. I have tried and tried with these nappies but i cannot get them to work. I have washed them so many times following the instructions on the site and they just leak. I tried them repeatedly on my baby and the liquid just poured out the sides and didn't absorb at all so i have given up and thrown them away. I gave up and purchased another brand that was half the price, exactly the same but a different lining and work like a dream (Hippybottomus) so i KNOW it is not the way i am fitting them a...Read more
nd i really didn't appreciate being told that it was my fault and just getting the same scripted reply telling me to watch the videos on their website. For some reason the liquid doesn't absorb into the lining on the covers, it is apparently supposed to go through the material into the insert. This does not happen, I have put water on a nappy with an insert in and it will simply pool on the lining and not get to the insert at all. The inserts also take AGES to dry (like two days minimum) which means you are waiting for them to dry and will need to have more of them to be able to use them full time. Customer service refused to accept the issues (i sent them a few videos showing clearly the problem) and repeatedly told me it was my fault and refused to refund my money. Do yourself a favour and skip this overpriced crap and go with another brand.Purchased in May 2020 for $69.00.

Elastics don't last the test of time
The leg elastics have completely worn out unfortunately and will have to be fixed/replaced prior to baby number 2’s arrival. Considering price of nappies and waste factor - they should last for multiple kids. The nappies were cared for and washed as per instructions and my first child isn’t even 2 yet.

A leaking nightmare!
In our house we use no once disposables except for nappies after my experience with EcoNaps.
The nappies leak through the stitches meaning that every nappy change is my change of clothes.
I started using them since he was a newborn and they quickly started leaking. They would leak less when he was tiny but by the time he was 4 months old they leaked all the time. I tortured my son for months trying to find the right "setting" thinking that I must have been doing something wrong but nothing worked and he kept leaking. I literally tried everyth...Read more

Perished after 2 years
I've used these on and off for 2 years, always washed according to instructions and treated with utmost care. The leg elastic is already perished on most nappies. I would have loved if they lasted longer, so I'm a pretty disappointed, I thought they would have been sturdy enough to be used for many years. Otherwise easy to use and really cute designs.

You beauty
Beautiful designs. Good quality inserts. Brilliant fit. Such a wonderful brand. Would highly recommend. Inserts take a little longer to dry than a trifold style but this is a minor setback that isn’t a drawing point

Not a good experience with the product or customer service.
My little girl was wet and uncomfortable, used for several months , outlay of over $200. Poor customer service . After several emails econaps response was " we don't give refunds for change of minds" .... Not a change of mind the nappies left my child soaked through. I thought I was purchasing from a considerate and compassionate company but No....... only in it for the dollar.

Best nappies by far
These are wonderful nappies, there my “go to” nappies. The inserts are unreal! I use cloth day and night and these are great for nights too. Postage was super fast. Trim fit, lovely design. Would love them to make more designs.

Terrific Modern Cloth Nappy - the inserts are the best!
EcoNaps really are terrific MCNs. The quality is great, the designs are lovely (although there could be more of them!) and I love that they are convertible between pocket nappies and AI2s. The Kam snaps are really sturdy - great that there are two levels of them, makes it really secure (and as such, the fit is really good and I haven't had leaks). The real winner here are the inserts. I wasn't sure to begin with - they are terry towel bamboo, different to other brands - but they are SO absorbent! They do take longer to dry than other inserts, s...Read more
o am thinking of buying another set of inserts so I'll have some at hand more readily. EcoNaps tend to be a bit bulky, with the front flap bulging a bit because there's a hidden front pocket to secure the inserts (which is actually a great idea, so bulkiness is the drawback). I would also prefer two horizontal snaps across the back instead of just one, for greater insert stability. A sweet little business from Byron Bay. Postage is a bit slow but my EcoNaps came in a lovely calico drawstring bag, which was a really nice touch. Would buy more. Pros Great quality, lovely designs Convertible between pocket nappies and Ai2s. Front pocket securely holds inserts and liner in place.Purchased in April 2019.

Better than others
These are our favourite cloth nappy. I don't think we've ever had a leak. However my baby ends up with indents/red marks around his legs much more so than with other brands. He is not a chubby baby so I'm not sure why this is.
Don't have an issues with nappy rash with these nappies.
These nappies do end up expensive when you include shipping and it's frustrating that you can't buy them locally.

I still haven't made up my mind about these nappies...
These are very versatile nappies made from quality materials, that much is sure. We started using them when our daughter was 3 days old and 2.9kg (on the smallest setting) and we are still using them 9 months later (on a larger setting with room to further adjust the waist size). They wash up very well, particularly when dried in the sun (to whiten the liner material) - the liners are hard to get dry in a dryer. However, I'm not sure if I would purchase these again, and my reasons probably apply to any nappy, reusable or not (i.e. nappy rash, l...Read more
eaking from around the legs). Using these is a learning exercise that I sometimes give up on. Ultimately, I think it is nice to have these nappies at home to use alongside disposables or other reusables but I'm not sure they are worth the hefty investment when used in this fashion.Similar opinion?

Brilliant!
I bought a trial nappy pack a while back and cannot get over how absorbent they are, feels so soft and such a good fit for my 16 month old and there’s still room to expand! No leakages during the day so far. I’m still waiting on the trifolds to be available so that we can go cloth nappy full time. I’m so happy that I stumbled upon Econaps on my quest to be more environmentally responsible. I’ve since bought 2 orders of 6 pack nappies and cannot wait for their arrival!! I also bought their wet bags and change mat previously. Such lovely designs ...Read more
and so well made. Definitely a brand I will recommend. Only fault I will mention is that due to popularity, I had to wait and am still waiting for products to be restocked and there isn’t an option for a preorder. I guess that’s what happens when you know you’re buying quality products!!Similar opinion? Write a review on ProductReview.com.au!

Such great quality!
After months of reasearching, trying to find a good value cloth nappy, I ordered a trial pack of EcoNaps. They are absolutely gorgeous, well made, and super absorbent! I am holding out to order a 22 pack when the new prints arrive in a couple of weeks.
My first order was missing a few nursing pads, and the customer service was fantastic and straight onto sending the rest of my order. The nursing pads are really comfortable. I don’t leak much so I can’t comment on absorbency. I bought the nursing pads to keep my sore nipples comfy and protect my bras from milk/lanolin stains. Much more comfortable and less wasteful than using disposable nursing pads.
Allround great products, customer service, and I love supporting an Australian business.

Never been so excited about poop and wee
I just opened my trial pack of EcoNaps, the quality of the fabric and stitching is fantastic, although I have a while before I get to try them I am already happy with the quality and efficient friendly service I have found so far, thank you and I look forward to hopefully becoming a full time cloth nappy user, if I only manage to use them occasionally I know that I have made a small difference to the impact my rubbish bin had in the environment and I think it’s Money well spent. Thank you EcoNaps your tutorials sold me! X

Stunning design and good quality nappies worth the pennies
Loving econaps! Can't wait to order more when the new prints release. excellent quality and my bub seems very comfortable wearing them. I did have 2 of the older style which weren't as comfortable on him, however they've changed material and now they are perfect. Would highly recommend for during the day.

So happy with my purchase!
Very happy with my purchase. I ordered the trial pack & pleased to say I am 100% making the switch from disposable to cloth. I thought it would be really hard to work out but figured it out within minutes. The videos on the website helped a lot as well. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!

My favourite!
Although I haven't had my baby yet, I've been buying many different nappies from many different brands and these are easily my favourite!
Firstly they are just gorgeous! Such beautiful patterns and the solid colours are lovely even though I usually prefer patterns.
Secondly they seem like very good quality and I love the soft fabric that's used - I'm sure my bubba will love it too when they get here!
Thirdly, and most appealing, the ease and versatility of use!
Don't like stuffing pockets? You don't have to! Like the convenience of a poc...Read more

Such a great product!
We recently purchased the trial pack from EcoNaps and absolutely love them! We have been using them between the biodegradable disposables we have and have had no leaks! even overnight! The only issue I had was the designs being sold out when I went to buy more! Very much looking forward to their new stock coming in next month and being able to use Econaps full time!

Details
These EcoNaps cloth nappies win points for versatility. They can be used by newborns (from 3.5kg), all the way up to toddler age (up to 16kg). If you’re not sure whether to opt for pocket nappies (good for heavy wetters) or all-in-2’s, EcoNaps will have you covered, with a 2-in-1 design.
A variety of snap buttons means size adjustments are plentiful, with just over 16 size settings to choose from, depending on your bub’s weight and size.
What makes Econaps nappies eco-friendly?
Econaps uses a cloth nappy cover (with materials not being specified on its website) and a choice between bamboo inserts and a suede layer built into the cloth nappy cover.
Econaps aims to apply this enviro-conscious mentality to its delivery system as well, using compostable postage satchels, recyclable boxes, and organic cotton tote bags.
Points of Praise for EcoNaps Convertible Cloth Nappies
- The inserts were described by reviewers as super absorbent, and are made of bamboo terry cloth.
- The overall design and effectiveness of the materials of these nappies was loved by reviewers. The liners were soft on baby’s skin, and a snug design helped to prevent leaks.
- A good fit for older babies, it was easy for EcoNaps to be securely placed on baby’s bodies, including wriggly babies.
- Customer service is helpful, friendly and personable, with the company based in Australia's Byron Bay.
- The eco-friendly mindset of EcoNaps was a crowd favourite amongst reviewers.
Points to consider
- Can be a bit bulky for younger babies.
- Trifold-style inserts take a little longer to dry, but most reviewers thought this was worth it for the high quality of EcoNaps nappies.
