i use little lambs and tot bots, the tots bots are always soft even if dried on line or airer so i would say go for them, although the wraps are very thin and don't hold wet nappies well. I prefer the little lambs although they can take a while to dry as they are thicker but most dry with 24hrs on airer or an afternoon on the line in the sun.

I cant help either cos I use different nappies (terries and prefolds mostly with a few all in ones for outings and relatives lol) but can say that a bit of white vinegar in the last rinse helps soften up nappies....

Sorry, I'm not going to be much help with your dilemma but another thing to bear in mind is if you have hard or soft water in your area. If you have hard water and don't have a tumble drier then nappies such as tots bots and other terry cotton (I think) ones may go hard. I've been buying up lots of 2nd hand ones for my new arrival in November and after washing them have found that quite a few have gone cardboard like! I've tried all sorts to try to soften them but have given up now and I'll be using different ones with jersey cotton lining (hopefully won't go too solid), fleece, bamboo or anything else that stays soft! I'm going to get a bumgenius or two to try also. Sorry to throw another spanner in the works.... but if you have soft water then don't worry!

Hi looking for advice
Which is best nappy to use tots bots. bugenius or any other recomendations (i know i've asked a few times but really confused as to which work best)
Needs to be something that works well and dries quickly as i don't use a tumbledryer so will have to dry on airer or raidiator in winter.
Also been reading reviews on bumgenuis and they seem to stop working after some months - problems with elastic in cuffs and the fasening tabs.
Any comments or advice / opinions really appreciated.
Thanks






why don't you go and see a local advsior - then you can touch and feel them all and tal it over with someone who has tried them all.
try
www.teamlollipop.co.uk
or www.babykind.co.uk
and see and advsior near you.
bamaboozles take ages to dry - that really is a big factor for me. I use microfibre nappies (lollipop micro's) as they dry quickly and I love the softness and the twolayers gives great conatimnet of new born poo.
