I have tried both and I can honestly say that I like both for different reasons. Aplix is the fastest to fasten and you get a PERFECT fit every time. But snaps are definitely my favorite because you never have to worry about laundry tabs, snagging etc. so they look newer longer. And they are super sturdy so my daughter has never even tried to open her diaper (where as with aplix, she opened it all the time). But the aplix on the GroBaby is the best aplix I have seen yet.

I like snaps because velcro can sometimes scratch.
I like the Aplix since my son is skinny and needs a trim fit

Today's entry: I also like snaps better because it doesn't wear out like aplix do.
heather[dot]mcdougle[at]gmail[dot]com
Pros and cons to each. I love the minute adjustability of aplix, but after 4 months of solid use of BumGenius aplix, it is coming loose and is not as fixable as what I thought it'd be. Plus, it pills up and doesn't look as professional as snaps, though that is a purely aesthetic point. I don't like how aplix sticks to everything, even if you have it fixed to the laundry tabs.
I like the quality of snaps and the fact that babies can't undo them as easily as aplix. BUT, I wonder if it works as well on one size diapers, where more of a range of adjustability is required.
That said, I'm going with snaps with any new diaper I get.
I totally prefer applix because my squirmy girl does not like to sit still so the faster the change the better.

Tricky question-
Aplix is easier for sitters and grandparents (FuzziBunz totally perplex my MIL). It also allows you a perfect fit.
...But aplix wears out faster, can snag other diaper items in the wash, and collects lint.

I like the convenience of applix, but I just purchased some diapers with snaps recently and I love the snaps. It seems like they will hold up a bit longer than applix.

Snaps- absolutely snaps! The aplix always seems to scratch the babies belly( both my toddler and newborn). Although the snaps are more trying during midnight changes, they are worth it to me.
I subscribe
I prefer snaps just because I know it lasts longer than a velcro, which can wear out. Although velcro is easier to put on a wiggly baby

I currently use Aplix, I've only used snaps on one diaper, I like the concept of snaps since they seem to last longer, but I think we're an aplix family.

I love the gro baby diapers. They fit my baby so well and the velcro doesn't hurt his belly.
I have some of both, and like both. I like the fact that my toddler can't get the snaps off, so I don't have to worry about a naked girl carrying her diaper around peeing on the floor. However, my daughter is very skinny, and I find I am able to get a better fit with aplix. It all depends on what mood I'm in and what's clean.

At first, I thought Aplix was much easier to use and thus the better choice. But after using cloth diapers for over a year on my son, I've realized that snaps are much more durable. I wish I'd purchased more diapers with snaps.

I'm a snap fan. They hold up so much better over time. The largest reason we do cloth diapers is the long tern cost investment vs the long term continual cost. Every time I purchase a aplix type diaper I feel like its defieting the purpose because the get so yucky in the wash.
I would like the snaps one...they don't wear out like velcro :)

i'd choose snaps since i already have tried the velcro!

I still like the snaps, but velcro is easier to adjust...

Today's comment- I like aplix for the adjustability but snaps for long term use.
I prefer snaps - they stay on better, don't rub against baby's legs, and are easier to fasten on a child who is standing up (assuming you know what setting to put them on!)
commented on "Weekend Super Saver Coupon - July 25th & 26th"
I prefer Aplix closures to snaps because they seem to be a bit most customise-able, instead of being confined to specific snaps.
I follow your blog through Google Reader.
usually, I'd say snaps because I have a toddle who LOVES to take off her diaper and do her business on the floor. but I've read on diaperpin about the 'super duper' velcro on Gro-Baby. so I'd have to say it's worth a try!
I prefer snaps for laundry reasons, but realize they are less easy for hubby and babysitters. But I like them best!
i prefer hook & loop since my doll squirms around so much that i need to be super quick.

I choose aplix because it's easy for Daddy and Grandma and they have no excuses!
I prefer snaps, I love that my snap diapers look as new as the day I got them, The few aplix I have are looking a little worn from pilling beside the aplix, I don't like that they look worn out before they are 6months old.

I a suscriber to blog/twitter and a facebook fan and I really want to try the grobaby diaper! I was excited when I first saw these and I would love to win them because I hear great things about them and I think it would be a really simple diaper system.
Well I forgot to put that I would prefer snaps, because my son won't be able to open them and I do think they last longer also. Even my bumgenius aplix (which has held up more than other diapers I have tried) is falling apart alittle and I don't think they will make it to my next baby.
I love the snaps. I have an escape artist for a son! The snaps make sure he can't remove his diaper.
snaps because they don't catch on things in the wash and they wear better.

ok, so terrible comments about the velcro, I change my preferences to snaps! :)
I like both. I like the aplix for a smaller baby. It just seems like you can secure it tighter. But for my 8 month old I love snaps because she can't take it off as easy. And the snaps seem easier. No laundry tab to worry about.

I found that the Swaddlebees with Snaps didn't fit my daughter well, but the aplix thirsties fitted fit so well. Snaps look better. I don't think I've used enough of a variety of CD's to have a preference. Based on my experience, I like the aplix better because of fit and ease of application.

I think I prefer aplix, but my baby isn't born yet so I haven't gotten a chance to test that out. It just seems like it will be easier to deal with the aplix then to be snapping and unsnapping all the time!

I have both and use both equally. They both have their unique pros and cons. But I will say that I haven't ever heard of one complaining that their child was known for removing their snap diaper. Well low and behold my 21 month figured out how to unsnap today. Result = wet bed + dry diaper. He never has removed a diaper before now aplix or snap. I have been saying for months that he will be my engineer. He is always trying to figure things out.
I prefer aplix for ease and snaps for durability!
I like aplix closures because they seem more adjustable to me. And it's all I've used for the last 2 years. Just got my first snaps a couple of months ago & think I still like velcro better.

I don't have a preference. I may in the future. I use side snapping, Aplex and Front snapping diaper currently. My little 6 month old isn't showing any interested in undoing them... yet.

I would prefer snaps. I think they fit better on my baby.
Right now i prefer aplix because it is faster and easier to get the diaper changed. I don't like the diaper trails and i won't like it if it wears out fast or it's easier for my baby to get his diaper off once he is older. right now i have a mixture of snaps and aplix.

Today's Entry: I love the KiWi Pie & Swaddlebee snaps because the diapers is so stretchy that you get a super perfect fit...like you do with aplix.

Snaps! I've been repairing aplix lately and it's kinda annoying! ;)
I commented on the post "three diapering accessories."
I think the snaps stay on better.
I love the snaps when they are little and not rolling around when you are trying to change them, and aplix for the latter.

I use cloth diapers with Aplix, but I want to try the snaps. I still think I would like the Aplix better though - it seems easier to use.
I prefer velcro on my young (3-week old) baby because it is faster. Maybe when he learns to undo it I would prefer snaps.

I definitely prefer snaps on dipes b/c my 14 month old loves to take off velcro dipes! Snaps also seem to hold up much better than velcro.
I prefer aplix for ease, but snaps for durability.

Daily entry: I do like aplix for one reason and that is it can fit some babies a lot better than snaps.

I wonder if anyone else is having issues with velcro wearing out...why wouldn't we all use snaps if it was that much better?

I like the concept of aplix due to it being most like disposable and easier for non-cloth poeple to use. However, I personally I like snaps better.

I like the idea of aplix becuase it is so easy for babysitters & it is fast. Generally, I have found that the aplix doesn't hold up well, though. So, because of this, I usually choose snaps. Also, my 7 1/2 month son is already taking off his diapers with aplix closures. Not fun!
