Summary: Best Choice We've Made!
Comment: I LOVE these diapers. My son spent 8 days in the NICU after birth, and came home with, among other things, horrible diaper rash. We'd already puchased the Seventh Generation newborn size, and after a couple of days, his diaper rash was so much better. We've continued to use the Seventh Generation diapers and find them more than comparable to other brands (and they're 10000X better than the Whole Foods generic version -- someone bought us a pack of those and they are HORRIBLE -- always leaking or blowing out qith the slightest amount of baby poo in it). Our son is long and skinny, so these diapers fit him great, and the redesign is definitely for the better. People, from our family and friends to our doctors are always asking about the diapers, and I always have great things to say! I love that they're chlorine free and biodegradeable, and honestly I like that they're just plain brown without a ton of little cartoon characters all over them. And with Amazon's Subscribe and Save, we're saving at least $3 a package -- so that's $12 a shipment, plus the gas to drive 20 minutes to the nearest store that carries them, vs. having them delivered to the door FREE. I'm in love with these diapers, and with Amazon's amazing service!

Summary: Good other than newborn size
Comment: Good diapers, but newborn size is a joke - simply not cut for the shape of a human child. Number 2's (not size 2) almost always leak. Other sizes (up to 5 tried so far) work well.

Summary: Leaked too often.....
Comment: After trying out a few brands, I was pretty satisfied with the 7th Gen Stage 1 diapers. So when baby got bigger, I ordered a large case of 7th Gen Stage 2 diapers. BIG mistake. They've leaked every single time baby has pooped (they hold up well for pee though). My son's 15 lbs so its not as if I'm using the wrong size (Stage 2 is for 12-18 lbs). I notice that in the Stage 2 diapers, the gathers around the legs are much smaller and the leaks have been happening from there as well as up the back.
I've been using these diapers for a week now and after having to do several extra loads of laundry I realise I just cant use these anymore. Its frustrating because I bought a 4-pack and I stil have 3 unopened packets of 40 diapers each!

Summary: Soft and comfy!
Comment: I love these, they feel soft like the newborn pampers swaddlers did, but I like that they aren't made with harsh chemicals!!

Summary: 7th Gen versus Earth's Best and Nature Baby Care
Comment: This review compares 7th Generation with Earth's Best and Nature Babycare diapers. I have 3 kids, and before my last child there weren't many options for environmentally-friendlier diapers besides 7th Generation. My daughter and first son started in cloth and moved to 7th Generation exclusively. So when my son was born in May, I thought I'd try some others and see what I came up with. I did not test Natural Choice because we could only buy online and didn't want to buy a case just to try it out, especially when we found a solid performer at a lower price with Earth's Best.

For the short version, performance/preference differed by size: For newborn diapers, Earth's Best was heads and shoulders above 7th Generation (Nature Babycare doesn't come in NB size). For size 1, Earth's Best was still on top, with Nature Babycare and 7th Generation tying for second, though I'd give Nature Babycare an edge for environmental friendliness. I have not tested Nature Babycare above Size 1, and have not yet tested Earth's Best in Sizes 2 & 3. 7th Generation performed adequately in those sizes. For Size 4 & 5, 7th Generation and Earth's Best were much closer, with Earth's Best being slightly more absorbent.

Overall, we have been very happy with 7th Generation over the years, so these new diapers were a pleasant surprise. 7th Gen is not flashy, definitely more stiff than mainline diapers, but the kids were comfy, never had diaper rash due to the diaper, and the diapers were pretty absorbent with very few leaks. However, we often had runs of overnight leaks that seemed unrelated to needing to move up a size, and we have had to move up a size much earlier than the package would indicate by weight (this happened with our son in particular, and he is pretty skinny).

For Newborn diapers, I highly recommend Earth's Best over 7th Gen. The Earth's Best diapers had a stay-dry liner, great fit for a newborn, and were much softer, than 7th Gen, which for a newborn is much more important than a toddler! Most importantly, they were super absorbent. Now, I have to say that for first-time parents I'm sure 7th Gen is fine, but by the third kid I know I didn't change my son as often as I should (tysk, tysk), at least at first when I was trying to adjust to 3 kids! The Earth's Best diapers NEVER leaked, and kept my son dry due to the great liner. The 7th Gen NB diapers were a distant 2nd. I don't know how absorbent they truly are, because they leaked almost immediately due to poor fit. First off, they were bigger than Earth's Best NB diapers in size. They also were more stiff, which meant it was much harder to both tuck in the flap for the cord in the beginning, and it was hard to get them tight so there was no gaping on the top...so the pee just leaked out the top half the time. I should note that I also got some NB Huggies from a neighbor and they were the worst of the 3 - they were soft but small, and held very little urine before leaking. Also, the gel or whatever was sort of cold, so the diaper always felt wet on the outside when it was wet on the inside.

For Size 1, Earth's Best is still the winner, but 7th Gen and Nature Babycare were a lot closer. For some reason Earth's Best only has the stay-dry liner in the NB diaper, but it still seemed that the inside of the Earth's Best diaper was softer and drier than the 7th Gen. Earth's Best and Nature Babycare excelled at absorbency, 7th Gen. was sufficient but not quite as good. All 3 diapers fit well. Earth's Best is by far the softest; 7th Gen slightly less, and Nature Babycare feels like the paper towels you get in a public restroom - not something I'd want to wear, but baby didn't seem to mind too much. Nature Babycare would probably rank second because of absorbency and it is more environmentally friendly than the other two, but gets low points for softness and because the tabs don't stick anywhere on the diaper other than the front - so you can't roll it a ball as easily for disposal (you can roll it and secure one tab to the back of the other, it's just a little trickier). 7th Generation a close third - it doesn't have the drawbacks of Nature Babycare, but it is not quite as absorbent, either.

For Size 4 & up, I'd give Earth's Best a slight edge, only because of overnight absorbency. I actually like that 7th Gen is more stiff for a toddler; the Earth's Best side panels are very soft and stretchy but I feel like that makes them sort of flimsy. However, we always used 7th Gen for our toddlers, never mainline brands - I think if you were switching from Huggies or Pampers that might not even occur to you because it seems like those have really stretchy side panels too. I've never had a 7th Generation leak during the day, but more than occasionally at night, and since we don't really want to buy two sets of diapers, we're switching to Earth's Best for our older son (he's 21 months). A note on shape - the Earth's Best were longer and narrower than 7th Gen at this size, which works well for our skinny son but may not be for everyone.

One final note on 7th Generation quality control. Twice my husband found we were shorted diapers in the package, so now we count the diapers every time. Contacted the company and they sent us coupons for diapers and other products along with an apology. Also, occasionally we've gotten a string of diapers with the tabs attached poorly so they rip off entirely when you open them - very annoying and sometimes not salvageable. We have used these diapers pretty much constantly for 3 years though (none of these problems in the past 6 months, it may have improved), so I have no idea whether the quality control of other products is any better.
