I'm excited because I love using velcro on a newborn and it will be nice to have a better option for baby #3 due in April!
ReplyDeleteI am brand new to the Cloth diaper scene and am soooo overwhelmed! I am so grateful for your site to help me make sense of all I am learning!
ReplyDeleteI actually love using hook & loop diapers because of how easy they are and how good the fit is! But the fact that they wear out quickly has always been the down side! So, hook & loop that is longer lasting is super exciting!!!
ReplyDeleteI am new to the cloth diaper scene and am so overwhelmed by all the information! I am grateful to your site for helping me sort through it all!

ReplyDeleteI would love to try this out for my daughter.
ReplyDeleteI am excited about stronger hook & loop because the main reason people say they don't like hook & loop is because their little one can un-do it. (My little one hasn't arrived yet so I have no experience on the topic). I'm thinking stronger hook & loop will help make the diapers last longer without replacement sewing involved too!!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited cause I prefer h&l vs snaps and its hard to find good ones
ReplyDeleteI had size 1 Thirsties covers, and loved the double gussets, but didn't care for the H&L, so when my LO moved up a size, I didn't get more. Looking forward to trying the improved H&L!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to win! Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteno more laundry chains.
ReplyDeleteI would love to try these unit! :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to try these out!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try these unit! :)
ReplyDeleteI've never been a huge fan of aplix, but the fact that the new Thirsties H&L is stronger makes me want to give it another chance. I know my husband likes aplix because of the easy factor.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited about the new thirties hook loop because u prefer hook loop over snaps and I would love to change back to hook loop if these new ones hold together a lot better and don't fail.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited about the new thirties hook loop because I prefer hook loop over snaps and would love to switch back if these hold up and don't fail.
ReplyDeleteI like that it decreases the chance of getting laundry chains. Not to mention they are harder for little hands to remove.
ReplyDeletethe durability is a real selling point
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried Thirsties yet, but I want to get more prefolds & covers. I'm hearing this is a favorite cover of many. Aplix is quick & easy for daddies and others who aren't used to changing cloth.
ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties Prints, I'm so excited to get more with the improved hook and loop!

ReplyDeleteStronger velcro makes it harder for the little one to get the diaper off on their own!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for this because I'm new to cloth diapering and any improvements to make them easier to use is good for me.

ReplyDeleteI already love Thirsties, especially the Thirsties DUO AIO. If they can improve on perfection, I'd love to try it!
ReplyDeleteThe new aplox looks perfect for my squirmy 5 month old!
ReplyDeleteI would be excited to try the new h&l because I have yet to find a diaper with aplix that lasts, and this is supposed to.
ReplyDeleteI love snap... but sometimes I need H&L for a squirmy baby!
ReplyDeleteobviously stronger is better. My kids tend to be clever and figure out how to get their diaper off pretty quickly.
ReplyDeleteMy kids tend to figure out how to get the diaper off at a young age so stronger is always better.

ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties products but I hate their old aplix, so I am really looking forward to the improvement. Plus, it is a good excuse to buy more diapers!
ReplyDeleteI would like to try these because my LO is forever rolling while i try to change him, a good H&L would make it much easier!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited about the new hook and loop because I need something to contain my super active little one! Most hook and loop doesn't hold up to her constant motion so I'm excited to try the new stuff!

ReplyDeleteI Love free fluff!
ReplyDeleteWe just started cloth and thirsties are quickly becoming our favorites!

ReplyDeleteI haven't actually tried a hook and loop. I'd love to have the best version be our first try :-)
ReplyDeleteI am super excited that they will be harder for my son to open.
ReplyDeleteI would love to try anything new!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited bc APLIX will make my night time diaper changes SOO easy!
ReplyDeleteNight time diaper changes: SOO much easier with APLIX!
ReplyDeleteI would like to try the stronger closure because baby can and does remove his thirsies duo.
ReplyDeleteI'm new to CD but can't wait to try this new &improved version!
ReplyDeleteI am excited b/c i love aplix but have felt like my thirsties aplix was a little weak and i love my thirsties!
ReplyDeleteI own the Thirsties aplix size 1 and the hook and loop is very thin. I'm looking forward to this more durable and thicker H&L.
ReplyDeleteTheir old aplix was a little weak, but on top of that, the new aplix is supposed to not fray and look ratty after time!
ReplyDeleteI have one thirstis cover that I love but it's snaps which drive me crazy. I'd love to try the hook and loop!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of the larger velcro area, can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteit will be harder for my LO to take off!
ReplyDeleteI think stronger hook and loop tabs is a great because we love the ease of use of velcro, but normally it isn't durable enough for us to buy confidently. I am excited about these new ones!
ReplyDeleteWe started out with APLIX Thirsties Duo covers and my husband loves the ease of the tabs, and the double gussets. He has requested these for when we expand our stash. I borrowed some used ones, and the aplix was a little less sticky, so I am excited to try the improved aplix for this and future babies!
ReplyDeleteMy husband hates snaps. If I want daddy's cooperation with cd, I need to make it easy!
ReplyDeleteCovers! I am excited to try prefolds!
ReplyDeleteCovers! I am excited to try prefolds!
ReplyDeleteCovers! I am excited to try prefolds!
ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties Duo Wraps! They are my favorite cover. All of my covers currently have snaps because I'm afraid of the hook and loop giving out. However, I'm thrilled to see a new and better hook and loop and am ready to give it a try!
ReplyDeleteNew momma here and cloth diapering x5 months!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited about the new H&L! I have done numerous repairs on my Thirsties covers and can't wait to check out the new stuff!!
ReplyDeleteWould love to win a new thirsties. I love the old thirsties so I am sure I will love the new hook and loop even more
ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties, and anything new and improved is just awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited because I prefer a good aplix/velcro over snaps any day!
ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties! My LO just outgrew his Size 1 Hook & Loop AIO so we would love to win another and try the improved hook & loop! Fingers crossed :)
ReplyDeleteHopefully it'll last longer :)
ReplyDeleteI like the wider shape of the hook and loop closure.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited about the new Thirsties improved hook and loop! Thirsties are great and hook and loop closures make it so easy to get acustom fit for my little one.

ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try the new Hook & Loop from Thirsties! Just yesterday I was wishing that they would do something about the quality, I love my Duos but the hook and loop is so worn out =(. So excited!!
ReplyDeleteeveryone needs a tough cover for those days when you just can't chase a toddler fast enough!

ReplyDeleteI think the hook and loop will be quicker. I've not had much experience with these, I have almost all snaps. However, I'm excited to try this and I think it will be easier on my mother in law :)
ReplyDeleteI've heard that the new H&L is harder for toddlers to take off...that's exciting. :)
ReplyDeleteI do not have any diapers with hook and loop, but my little one is starting to get very wiggly and I would love to try some!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win free cloth diapers!!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win cloth diapers!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win a new Thirsties! I just bought 4 of the Duo's and really love them!

ReplyDeleteNo frayed edges!
ReplyDeleteSo excited about the bigger hook & loop, I already love my thirsties, but had converted them to snaps because the hook & loop wore out so fast :( this might make a h&l lover again!!
ReplyDeleteI've never tried H&L because I've heard that it tends to wear out faster than snaps.If this is more durable, I'm all for it!
ReplyDeleteBetter hook and loop = more kids in this diaper!
ReplyDeleteWe've never tried fitted before and I've never heard of the thirsties fab fitted! Maybe this cover has a better front flap fit than the older ones did. I would always get front leaks with our little guy. Eager to try the new!
ReplyDeleteI love the ease of hook and loop, but it's the durability I would love to see improved!
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping the new hook and loop doesn't fray so it maintains a cleaner look for longer!
ReplyDeleteI would looove to win these!:)
ReplyDeleteThe tabs look way more durable and long lasting!
ReplyDeleteI am a FTCDM and I can't wait till my little man arrives to use all my fluffy new and previously loved diapers! I would love to win a Thirsties Fab fitted and Duo wrap cover since I'm growing my fluff stash 1 diaper, cover, and insert at a time! And if it has new and improved hook & loop then that's even better!!
ReplyDeleteI like the ease of hook and loop but always have issues with it wearing out. I'm curious about the durability of the new and improved kind!
ReplyDeletethe h&l on the thirsties I have now is really wearing out and it hasnt even been used much. Im glad they have improved it so moms can get more life from their diapers
ReplyDeleteI liked the more finished edges since that means they won't fray so easily.
ReplyDeleteIt excited me because I love Thirsties but most of my hook and loop diapers get stashed away once my kids can undo the velcro. If it's extra sticky, maybe it'll be a real keeper!
ReplyDeleteI have never actually tried a hook and loop diaper, so I would be very excited to see how they compare.
ReplyDeleteI love the new and improved hook & loop Thirsties because they will better meet the needs of my growing little ones. Now, I won't have to switch to snaps to keep them from coming undone!
ReplyDeleteI hate worrying about needing to replace aplix!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited about the improved durability of the new hook&loop, so they last longer. Also the fact that they're bigger and harder for baby to remove is a plus.
ReplyDeleteWould LOVE to win these!
ReplyDeleteI'd LOVE to win these, I'm building my stash!
ReplyDeleteWould LOVE to win these!
ReplyDeleteThird try - hope this comment shows up. I'm hoping to win these, I'm building our stash!
ReplyDeleteWe've had issues with a little girl taking a nap in her dress and an aplix diaper only to find her diaper free and in need of clean sheets. Stronger aplix will minimize this! :-)
ReplyDeleteI had heard others complain about how weak the old velcro was, so I'm excited to see how they made it better!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try a new durable diaper! The cloth we are using now work well most of the time, but we could use something more durable for those heavy wetting times.

ReplyDeleteI'm excited for the new H&L because I like aplix for daycare and am always on the hunt for durable aplix options out there.
ReplyDeleteI love this because the Thirsties velcro I have now have worn out pretty fast, but I still love them!
ReplyDeletejbang0331 at yahoo dot com
I can let my husband change a diaper without fearing he'll be too rough on the aplix.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE Thirsties. I am excited about trying hook and loop!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for these new covers because I am just getting into cloth diapers and the easier and better they are to use, the more likely I will be to stick with it! Everyone knows that if the first experience isn't so good, it effects those in the future, so a stronger hook & loop means a better experience for me and my kiddos!
ReplyDeleteWould love to try the new H&L!!
ReplyDeleteI would love love to try this CDS, I haven't tried them.
ReplyDeleteWe've not yet tried thirsties at all...but stronger and better sounds good to me!!!
ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties & want to try their fitted diapers
ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties and want to try their fitted
ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties & want to try their fitted diapers
ReplyDeleteI'm excited as many people complain that the hook and loop doesn't last. This sounds more durable.
ReplyDeleteI only have one hook and loop diaper and would love to try a Thirsties!
ReplyDeleteSoon to be new mommy & new to CD. I can't wait to see our B/G twins with their fluffy bottoms!
ReplyDeleteThese were a favorite around our house, when our little one was tiny. Now its time to go onto the next size.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping that my daughter wont be able to get these ones off!!!
ReplyDeleteI hear it's more childproof which would be great for my little one who would rather go around diaperless

ReplyDeleteI am just starting cloth diapers for the first t and would love to try these!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited because aplix is so much more convenient to use than snaps...but I have been unhappy with the aplix of most brands of diapers...maybe this will be different :)
ReplyDeleteI am SOOO excited because I'm totally new to cloth diapering and to parenthood in general.. I can't wait to put some cloth diapers on my newborn in May!!!
ReplyDeleteI've never used a fitted diaper before, and this seems like a great option and an easy transition from the diapers I'm used to!
ReplyDeleteI have avoided buying any velco tabs because I don't want kiddo to be able to pull them off later, but these new tabs might just get me some cute new diapers!
ReplyDeleteI definitely want to try these out!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to give these a try! Hope I win :)
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to give these a try!! Hope I win :)
ReplyDeleteI love trying new things.
ReplyDeleteThirsties are my favorite covers and I'm excited that they will be new and improved!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to find out if the new Hook&Loop is really strong enough to prevent my daughter from taking off her diapers!
ReplyDeleteCant wait!
ReplyDelete:)))) Oh yessshh
ReplyDeleteI am always excited to try a new diaper!
ReplyDeleteThirties Duo Wraps are my favorite now! Can't wait for them to be even better. Good excuse for more Fluff Mail.
ReplyDeleteLove that cloth diapers are constantly being upgraded to make using them easier! Hopefully more "new and improved" diapers make people switch to cloth diapering!
ReplyDeleteI have some well-loved thirsties with worn out hook and loop, so I'm glad it is more durable (although I thought the last kind was amazing for the abuse my diaper have gone through!)
ReplyDeletehe's less likely to crawl out of his diapers!
ReplyDeleteExcited because I already love Thirsties and now they look even better!
ReplyDeleteLove the "just like disposables" ness of velcro diapers, but not that they wear out faster than snaps. Improved velcro would be a wonderful alternative!
ReplyDeleteI love Hook and Loop because they fit small babies better!
ReplyDeleteLove my thirsties wraps & really want to give this fitted a try!
ReplyDeleteLove my thirsties wraps & really want to give this fitted a try!
ReplyDeleteI love thirsties so stronger hook and loop can only mean I'll love them even more!
ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties, but there were a few times I felt the H&L left something to be desired. The new version looks wonderful- I'd love to try it! Plus, I really like that it's bigger to hold better. :)
ReplyDeleteI love Thirsties covers, but their aplix sucks! In general though, I like aplix a lot, just not theirs. This could be really awesome if it truly is better.
ReplyDeleteLove Thirsties products
ReplyDeleteI'm brand new to cloth diapering. I have a 3 week old and we're excited to find our favorites!

ReplyDeleteNo more laundry chains... and the diapers will stay on in spite of how acrobatic lo gets...
ReplyDeleteI've never tried ANY Thirsties, so of course this is exciting!
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried ANY Thirsties, so of course this would be exciting!

ReplyDeleteI am excited to be buying diapers for my grad daughter :)
ReplyDeleteSince my second son was born I decided to give cloth diapering a shot. After countless cloth diapering 101 videos. (thanks youtube for filling in my sleepless nights) It was love at first sight! Prefolds and Thristies!! I would love to try the new and improved version!
