Pampers Cruisers

Best nappy - wish they were stocked at Coles/Woolies! – I find these nappies amazing! Firstly, they are super absorbent - my 10 month old wears them for 12 hours overnight and we've never had a leakage. Been using them since he was 2 months old. Secondly, they are super soft on my sons sensitive skin. The only other nappy that lasts overnight is huggies but they give my son super red markings around… Read more

his legs - no issues with the pampers as they are super soft. Thirdly, they are so light and thin - easy to pack in day bag and not at all bulky on my boy.

I was skeptical at first when i was given a pack as a gift; i didn't use them until one night when I couldn't get to the store to pick up the usual huggies. Gave one a go and haven't looked back! Super absorbant, super soft for sensitive skin, thin and lightweight, seasame street characters and smells nice too! Hard to source - usually have to wait for Groupon or Mumgo to have a sale - Otherwise very expensive to order through the Pampers websit.

Worst nappy ever! – With two bugs I have gone through a fair few nappies on the quest for "effective but cheap", so when I saw a deal for these nappies at an unbelievably cheap price, I snapped them up. Unbelievably cheap is right. They gave my 7 month old girl horrible nappy rash including a weeping red sore, are so thin that they leaked & lasted a ridiculously… Read more

shortened amount of time before needing to be replaced. Poor form Pampers, no wonder they were practically giving them away. Chap initially Everything at you would expect in a quality nappy

Worst nappy ever! – First time I buy them and I'm shocked!! First time in 11 months that my baby gets a nappy rash. Besides they leak, they get very heavy when wet. I have to change my baby every 3 hours. I had always bought Huggies but they're very expensive, now I regret because I bought 3 bulks.

Favourite nappy by far – I have been using Huggies since my now 6 month old son was a newborn & automatically decided they were the best type of nappy on the shelves because of the marketing/packaging & sterotyping amoungst Australian consumers/Mothers & health care professionals. After finding chafe on bubbies inner thighs from the rough outer, red marks on his legs… Read more ·  1

because of tight leg elastic & him having a red rash on his upper thigh from the constant rubbing of the sticky tabs on Huggies I was on a mission & began trialing almost EVERY nappy avaliable to see if i could find something that was a better fit while being super absorbent... but had no luck. (My son would even break out in a rash from the cheaper brands sometimes)

I decided to give Pampers a try.. If these were awful i had decided i would stay loyal to Huggies & stop my search for 'the perfect nappy'.

After using them on my son for the first time i was very skeptical, they smell nice (kind of like baby powder), have nice stretchy side panels & feel super soft on the inside and outside, but because they are so thin didn't trust them - I didn't think they would hold up well over night. (12 hours)

I decided to do a water test before putting one on my boy over night (Save myself changing & washing the sheets/clothes etc if they were bad) & this was my finding...

I weighed each nappy before i began the test - Huggies toddler size & Pampers cruisers maxi dry size 4.

Pampers: 25grams

Huggies: 42grams

I then poured one cup - 250mls of water in each nappy & let it sit for 3minutes.

I then held the back of my hand on the nappy along with a bit of paper & gave it a bit of a rub for about 10seconds & waved it in the air to see how wet it was & weighed the nappies again also.

Huggies: 286g after 250ml water.

Finding: The back of my hand was very damp/moist & the nappy was damp to the touch.. the paper was splotched with damp patches. It was also quite damp on the out side of the nappy.

Pampers: 252g after 250ml water.

Finding: The back of my hand was almost 100% dry, a tiny bit of moisture, but you wouldn't know at all unless you were focusing really hard & being picky, the piece of paper was dry also. The nappy was dry to the touch, although the outer cover of the nappy was damp.

This was such a fun little experiment & i'm really glad i compared nappies!

Huggies retail for: $33 for a box of 81 Toddler size - widely avaliable

Pampers retail for: $30 for a box of 100 Toddler (I find them to be between Toddler/walker Huggies.. size (Size 4) and can only be found at Coles.

I hope this helps other Mums break the 'nappy sterotype' while saving some money & keeping baby comfie!

Things i love about Pampers!

- The amazingly soft outer cover!! = No more inner thigh rashes for Kees!

- The SUPER thin aspect of the nappy, It must be so much more comfy then a thick padded nappy

- The really flexable/stretchy side panels, it allows Kees to roll about & play freely while avoiding rough tabs irritating his leg & leaving a rash

- The fact that it is crazily absorbent & still leaves baby 100% dry!

- The fun sesame street designs, great for both boys & girls.

The one thing i was a bit skeptical about was the fact it didn't have back elastic like Huggies, but i think its worth the switch! :) Everything!! The price, absorbency, stretchy side panels, designs, double leg elastic, smell, softness, how thin it is.. Its an amazing nappy for such a great price! Nothing at all! I couldn't fault them even if i tried!

Pleasantly surprised – I saw these come up on a scoopon or one of those voucher sites and was going to try and didn't. I have been using cloth nappies (gorgeous absorbent ones much diff to the old cotton squares, but still don't last like biggie and disposables, but that's been fine). I hate the waste of disposables, and was looking for some to use when I saw these on… Read more

special at Coles

I saw it said they were 20% thinner, but man they must have been thin before! I had some Huggies at home and planned on using them overnight, had put one of these on after a bath, and when hubby decided to put hubs to bed I didn't get to change him. To my surprise it lasted with no leaks. I am always amazed at how minimal it seems even when it's time for a change.

I don't know if I would buy if not on special but I plan on buying another box if Coles still have them on special. My son is 18months and starting to tt so hopefully I won't need too many more anyway, but atleast if I'm not usin my cloth, I'm addin much less to waste. I can easily add a cover if needed. I do love the super thin nappy for under clothes and would recommend you try. I am really not sure how some say they leak every hr or two?

Oh and one last thing, I always feel when I take it off, and he truly does feel dry. I used Huggies on my other two, and have never thought any compare. These are different but definitely comparable. Cheers! Min waste if you have to use a disposable. Super thin and baby feels dry Only at Coles and exp if paying full price.

Excellent – I would recommend these nappies to any parent old and new. I can also honestly say that I have had a leakage here and there during the day, but I've had just as many using using other brands. A huge factor in the cause would be that the nappy was not fastened properly by the nappy changer! This sort of mishap comes with the job so you have to be… Read more

prepared to accept it.

This is my second child and I'm glad she's had the pleasure of being able to wear these nappies. I have used other brand nappies aswell, such as Huggies, Babylove and Snugglers but I've found the brand for me. These nappies have been fantastic for me and my baby. They are infact super absorbant as we've never experienced any over-night leakages. My baby has never had any nappy rash since using these nappies either. I love the fact that they are thin so are not bulky when trying to put clothes on over the top, and yes, it still surprises me how absorbant they are considering how thin they are. They also have a smooth texture so feel really soft against your skin. My baby hasn't had any complaint!! She happily does her business in these nappies and doesn't seem to feel any discomfort as with other brands. I love them!! They are good value for money without a doubt - worth every penny.

No leakage!!! – While on holiday in the UK I started to use Pampers instead of Huggies and I was amazed at the quality of these nappies. My son is an extremely heavy wetter who sleeps 12-14 hours at night so I needed a nappy that I could be sure wouldn't leak. I was so excited when I returned to find I could buy these nappies at Coles but that is no longer the… Read more

case so instead I bulk buy them from Dealsdirect.com and I get them for around 22c a nappy (Size 5). No leakage, Extremely slim fit, high back Not easily available in Australian stores

Pampers Cruisers – It's too bad that Coles no longer carry Pampers Cruisers, apart from Huggies, they are my favourite nappy brand. Unlike Huggies, Pampers are super thin which is great for hot summer days. And they are very affordable as well, equating to about 30 cents per nappy for Size 4. Although thin, they last through the night unless the kid drinks a lot of water prior to sleeping. Thin, super-absorbent, affordable.

This is our night time nappy – We use these at night time, they are a great fit even with no stretchy elastic waistband. So thin but super absorbent The reason we don't use these during the day is because when they get wet the nappy sags down alot as it carries soo much ! Huggies carry just as much but doesn't sag - maybe due to its elastic waistband Reasonable price, thin, super absorbent, cute design No elastic waistband therefore it sags

Worst nappies ever!!! – I bought these from coles when they were on special thinking because there normally more expensive than huggies than bound to be fantastic! Wrong!!I have to change my daughter every hour and a half and even within 25 minutes of the new nappy her wee and poo leaked right through her pants. Everything! expensive! waste of money! have to change… Read more

every hour or so! dont bother buying them if you want absorbancy...you'll be changing the sheets every night.

Terrible – I will never use this brand again. They leak no matter how often I changed them.It was a complete waste of money,time and effort as I spent quite a lot of my week washing bed linen and clothes. I was scared of leaving the house with these nappies on my daughter as I could not depend on them to hold any liquid. There was nothing that I liked about… Read more

them apart from the cute designs. They were paperthin,leaked within a very small amount of time and as a result I used three times the number of nappies that I would normally use. Also they left me with a huge amount of washing since everytime they leaked I had beds and clothes that needed to be replaced.

Terrible – The worst nappy I have ever used. Tried them today for the first time. I'm going back to huggies and sorbies, no matter how good a sale coles is having on cruisers.I've got to wash some very damp clothes! The fit is good. They leak very badly after no time on at all.

Cheap, absorbent AND thin-look! – My first choice for day nappies! The most noticeable thing is how thin Cruisers are when they're dry; they look better under fitted clothes and take up less room in the nappy bag. Their thinness doesn't affect their absorbency though and they contain a full load well. When wet, they don't go lumpy, just squishy. They don't have a stretchy waist… Read more

band but they're still a good fit. I find they do fit well around the legs and are easy to re- adjust should you need to. They're not THE most absorbent for overnight use, but their low cost and appearance are a more than adequate trade-off. Low-cost and thin looking with good absorbency Not available in a size for <7kgs

Terrible – I thought they where the worst nappy i have ever purchased. They where on special so i thought that would be wonderful to purchase them since i'd heard so many good things about them but when i got them home i was very dissapointed. The nappy was only half there. The back half of the nappy didn't have any lining at all in it, so when my son did a… Read more

large amount of wees they would leak. I couldnt allow him to wear them at night because he simply wouldn't sleep with such a wet bed. Coles returned them no worries. They where on special. only half the nappy was there, no back lining, means wouldn't hold much, poos went up into no lined part, absorbant lining started to come off after a few hours.

My favourite disposable nappy – I started using them because they were cheaper than the leading brand, but since then, I am so happy with them, its all we have used since. I have recommended them to others as they are great value, much trimmer fitting than others, very absorbent & well fitting. My bub wears one overnight for 12 hours straight & they hold up well. price, fit,… Read more

comfort and absorbency. has a bit of a chemical smell which can be a little off putting. I always open the new pack and stack the nappies in bub's stacker, so the smell dissipates

Will buy again – I bought these to try, as I thought $30 for 100 nappies wasn't too bad. I had been impressed with Huggies but think the Pampers Cruisers are a fierce competitor! Although they are thin, the absorbancy it great (deceiving). They don't take up much room in the nappy bag and even better in the rubbish bin after use. Ultimately they are a better… Read more

choice than other disposables as far as reducing land fill goes. Thin, reducing waste. Good absorbancy. Light, soft and comfy for bub. Can only find at Coles. The fragrant scent is quite strong.

Excellent – Love these nappies. My son is commando crawling and tends to wear holes in the front of his Huggies nappies, as these are thin we don't have this problem and they just seem to be more comfortable for him. I still use Huggies nappies at night but would definatley recommend these to anyone who wants an alternative to the Huggies during the day.… Read more

They are much thinner than Huggies and other brands so appear more comfortable, have never had an issue with nappy rash or poo's up his back. Stretchy grip tabs are very soft so no red marks on his legs. Expensive except when on sale so stock up when they are. I can usually get a box on sale for about $30 for 100 nappies compared to Huggies which is $33 a box for 81 nappies. Had one leak but I think that was because I had been slack and not changed him as often as I normally do - don't think a Huggies would have held up either.

Bad – I have two children now and didnt use it on my second child. I couldnt be bothered with having to wipe off the residue it left. It otherwise done its purpose but wouldnt buy it again, because of the time it took to wipe my daughter. The absorbency i found was great especially because they are quiet skinny and compact nappie , i did go on buying… Read more

them for a while with my 1st child . Especially i found good in the summer months as they are not thick and bulky. They left a fluffy residue on my daughters bottom and found i had to use plenty of wipes to take it off.

Terrible – I would never buy this again as they look ( and feel) poor quality nappies and you end up changing your baby more frequently anyway so they end up costing more than Huggies. The only suggestion would be if you are toilet training and want your child to feel wet, then these may be an option. I bought these on special - They were on par with the… Read more

price of an Aldi napply and I was looking for a cheap option to send my son off to daycare in. ( they change him as soon as he gets there ) The quality is poor, very flimsy and does not hold much wee

Bad – Would not buy these again, I have gone back to huggies. Might save a few dollars but i don't think it's worth it when you have to change more often.Wish I never bought such a large box as I only wasted my money as they caused nappy rash. They are not very thick either good fit Don't hold much and gave my son nappy rash

Bad – Overnight I found that they seem to become very bulky and squishy with wee. I also noticed that the lining became fluffy and would be hard to pick off the skin. My husband bought these and he never heard the end of it as I really didn't think they compared to Huggies nappies. I would buy Huggies over these any day. They don't seem to leak often… Read more

(but do more often than Huggies). I don't like that they would leave fluff on my sons 'bits' if used overnight. They seem flimsy and would swell up a lot more than Huggies so needed changing more often.

Good – Overall. Very happy with this product. I had no problems with rashes or anything like that because its really absorbent. I would recommend this to all my friend and family if they want a second choice to huggies nappies. These nappies are just as good as Hugg ies. I switched to this after a friend recommended it and it was definitely worth the… Read more

try. Its not as bulky as Huggies napppies and its highly absorbent. They feel like cloth nappies and the little sesame street characters are really cute. These nappies are a good buy when the boxes are sale. Very affordable considering the excellent quality. The only problem that I had with the nappies is that when my baby used it overnight, it would always leak. Because of its high absorbency I noticed that I had to change her diaper more frequently then I did with a huggies diaper.

Good – Overall I really like these nappies. I haven't tried the night ones but am planning to. They come quiet cheap in boxes quiet ofetn. I find they are a great alternative to huggies not only in price but in fit and absorbancy. My child can't wear huggies all the time as they give her nappy rash but Pampers have never given her nappy rash and she is… Read more

prone to it alot. Really absorbant. Look so comfortable especially for active little toddlers. Cute designs. Great tabs. Fit so nicely. I have even used them overnight when they arn't the overnight ones and have never leaked. Great when on special. Hard to find. Can be a little tricky finding the right size for your child as they nearly all look the same. Not overly cheap if not on special.

Excellent – I mostly use modern cloth nappies but needed to buy nappies for nighttime and daycare and these were on sale so I thought I would try them. They are alot of thinner than other disposable nappies that I have tried and I was initially worried about the quality but they have held up well so far. We use them for 12 hours overnight without any problems… Read more

on my 11 month old. We have had one 'blow out' but that was a reaction to medication that I don't think any form of protection could have helped (!). I would definitely recommend these nappies if you are using disposable. I managed to buy a bulk lot quite cheaply yet quality has held up. Last well overnight, no leaks. Thinner than other brands but appears to be comparable in quality. Like all disposables there are the issues with waste, non-biodegradable, and ongoing cost due to single use.

Good – I'll keep on using Pampers and are happy to recommend them. I keep an eye out for the specials when you can get 110 nappies for $30. These nappies are great. I use about 6-10 nappies a day and I have never had a leak. They feel great, aren't as bulky and are more flexible then some of the other brands so it is easier for my son the move around.… Read more

They just look comfortable well. I have never had an issue with nappy rash and they seem to draw the moisture away well. I won't use them as night nappies as altough they are great I think Huggies (in the size up) are better for the 12 hour stints.

Excellent – I am very happy with the pampers nappies,slim, fit well,absorbent,good value for money,only available at coles,I can highly recommend them we have tried many different brands but tried them whilst away i europe and were very happy to find them here when we got back. much slimmer than the huggies, fit well,strechty waistband, and higher in the back… Read more

as the huggies. good value for money and on sake quite often at coles as they are a new product which is great. none maybe taht they are only available at coles

Good – If you are used to disposable nappies and if your baby developed nappy rash,I would recommend Pampers but one size more than the usual to enable more air circulation.My 5 month old had severe Nappy rash and i found Pampers to be the best nappy which did not worsen it further.Its Noise free esp when you want to change your baby when she is asleep.… Read more

Super absorbtion,easy to slide and strap on,not heavy,good fit ensuring leak proof mechanism for active babies,super dry even after 15 hours and does not stick to the baby's bum when compared to babylove,Huggies.Also the elastic strips are so soft that it did not cause skin folds or redness near the inner thighs and waist no matter how hard my baby pressed on it while sleeping sideways.Love that aspect! Not many stores have Pampers.

Excellent – I came across this when I was in Singapore and was amazed at how dry and absorbent it was. I tried to look for it here in Australia and just recently discovered it for sale at Coles. The inside is made of cloth like material unlike Huggies and no diaper rash for bub either. Absorbent A bit on the expensive side

Good – I like the inner liner it feels like it breath better and the skin doesn't stick to it. They are thinner and still very absorbent. After a long night, it nice to see your baby dry and the nappy hasn't spill over... The fitting is great and they are highly flexible. Witch make movement a breath for my boy... They are thinner than most brand and still absorb more only available at coles

Good – a reasonable nappy that fits well and is easy to apply. i would use it on my little ones along with other trusted brands like huggies and snugglers lightweight, snug and great fit not as bulky as other brands i have used. I love the stretch tabs as makes fitting the nappy easier. Sizing easier to determine what would be right for your child..no… Read more

more of this crawler, walker etc which can be confusing at times maybe a little costly but if you compare it with others that need more frequent cahnges or leak resulting in extra washing they are reasonably priced. not having elastic at the back did result in a poo accident going up our little ones back but this has occured only on one occasion thankgodness

Excellent – Until now I thought Huggies were the best but when I tried Pampers Cruiser I was just extatic. I can feel my baby's bum in my hand and he desn't seem to be wearing a knight armour anymore. They fit so nicely, I don't think my son's bum is overheated anymore. Never noticed a leak. Love it, love it, love it! Thin and soft, they dress my baby's bottom like a glove. Lovely design. A bit too dear.

OK – These nappies are highly over rated and over priced. They do the job and they keep in leaks, but there are much better, much cheaper nappies available. The Sesame Street designs are very cute and my daughter loves them, but unless they are really cheap on special, i won't buy them. I find that since the sizing guide goes by numbers along with the… Read more

weight guide, it seems a bit confusing. I like just a straight forward sizing guideline, like other brands that have crawler, infant, walker size etc.. You know roughly what size to expect but the pampers sizing isn't like that. There also isn't alot of nappies in each pack. Cute designs. Don't leak. They feel a bit thin and papery. Expensive compared to other brands.The sizing on the packaging is a bit confusing.

Excellent – Great nappy! Tried so many other brands and nothing compares. Not even Huggies. My daughter used to use Huggies and her poos will leak every time without fail! With Pampers, it rarely leaks (unless she does a monster poo :D). I find Pampers fit better than Huggies as well. Even though it is more expensive, I change her less than when we used… Read more

Huggies as Pampers are so absorbent! Also, Pampers are less bulky than Huggies, I can finally feel bubba's bottom for a change.

It is also easier to tell whether a nappy change is required with Pampers. I LOVE IT super absorbency, very thin, no leaks even after 10 hrs a little expensive

OK – I like them but don't trust them with poo so will use in combination with Huggies which are much better at containing poo. Still far better than babylove or Aldi. thinness is great and the price is good too Cannot contain my 4mth old's poos-always gets up the back so I use Huggies when I know a poo is due.

Excellent – I bought a pack of these yesterday when i saw them at coles, and all i must say, when my supply of huggies run out, i will not be using them on my 10month old again! they fit my daughter like a dream, very slim nappy- don't be fooled they contain everything just fine! i have used several brands of nappies on my baby, and huggies were the best… Read more

until we got these. 5 star quality! xx everything! price, fit, quality, NO LEAKS even after 11hour over night stint! that it took them soooooo long to get to Australia, girlfriends of mine used them on their kids in U.K, always said they were fab
