Customer Reviews of Seventh Generation Chlorine Free Diapers, Stage 3 (16-28 Lbs), 40-Count Packages (Pack of 4) (160 Diapers)
Customer Review: What a disappointed change!
Summary: 3 Stars
I must say initially seventh generation dipers have been the best dipers I ever used, although it's a little bulky than most of the commercial brands, it's still a good and CORRECT fit. By saying that I mean if it says to fit 12 to 18lbs, it really is. Plus It holds more, absorbs quick, never leaks and the inner layer stays dry so your baby still feels comfortable even after 6 or 7 hours, which I found extremely helpful when your baby could sleep overnight. Adding the fact it's environment friendly, I gave it 5 stars.
But this "improved fit" version is such a disappointment. When I ordered this large case, I was not aware of the change. It's thinner and much smaller, the stage 3 of this version which claims to fit from 16lbs to 28lbs is even smaller than the medium size of the old version which fits 12 to 18lbs. No need to mention how small stage 2 is for my 14lbs boy, surely he's not a big baby for a 3-month old. The inner layer wets easily and I have to change it more often to avoid leak. I still give it a 3 stars considering it's environment friendly, but will defenitely recommend the old version over this.
Customer Review: If it aint broke
Summary: 4 Stars
My son is now 16 month old and I have been using 7th generation diapers since he was one month old. I absolutely love them! My son has never had a diaper rash... ever! He also has an intact penis and has never had any infections of any sort. I also used the seventh generation wipes, as well as california baby diaper area wash (leaves baby so fresh and clean, i swear by it). My only concern is that 7th generation recently "improved" their diapers. I love that they are now slimmer and have stretchy elastic tabs but they do not have the same absorbancy. I never had a problem with leaks before. So rare that I never carried a back up pair of clothes. But now I have had a wake up call. Since we started using the "improved" diapers he leaks when he sleeps through the night and I am thinking about using something different at night. I am trying now to find a store that still has some of the old design so I can use them at night. I really dont want to change but I will if I have to. I have written to the company but have not received a response. I would give the old design 5 stars but the new ones are lacking.
Customer Review: Great for a baby with skin problems!!
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter has had very bad eczema since basically birth - including bad cradle cap, etc. She's actually using prescription lotion to help keep the rash under control. Along with this she has had trouble with diaper rash, much more so than her twin sister who doesn't have any of these problems.
So I started trying different diaper brands and the Seventh Generation diapers really help to keep the diaper rash at bay!! My guess is that they are less irritating to her skin because they haven't been bleached, etc.? Now she still gets the rash, everywhere except where her diaper covers!
Also - I'm a bit of a diaper snob as far as how good the "stretchy tabs" are, the elastic around the legs, etc. and these are just as good if not better than Pampers Swadlers/Cruisers. I use the Pampers on my other daughter (because the girls wear different size diapers and it's easier to tell them apart if the colors are different) and I am just as pleased with the ease of use and non-leaking of the diaper with the Pampers and the Seventh Generation.
Customer Review: HORRIBLE!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
If I could give these diapers a zero rating I would. I thought I was doing the right thing for my baby by buying him chlorine free diapers and everything else the packaging says but I was WRONG. Everyone else is right the design sucks...it's like the pee goes straight through them. Even worse my son developed a HORRIBLE RASH the day after I started using them...I didn't know what was causing it, it surely couldn't be these diapers could it? Yes, it could. Everything else in my routine was the same...wipes, cornstarch, his baby soap, laundry detergent...nothing had changed except the diapers. I switched back to pampers and the rash disappeared instantly!! My husband put another leftover seventh generation diaper on him not knowing and he broke out in a rash again!! I absolutely hate these diapers and would NEVER recommend them to anyone...by the way, the company dyes these diapers brown to make them look more "earthy"...just another one of their tricks to get the unsuspecting consumer to buy their fake, dangerous product.Customer Review: Was worried about switching brands
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been strictly a Pampers mom for 13 months now, but my son has a rash that developed on his lower back (or the top of his butt). I tried putting Eucerin on it to soothe, but when that didn't work after a week I knew I had to try a different diaper. I am so GLAD that I gave these a try. They're really just a few cents more expensive than Pampers, but I had been reluctant to try them before because I imagined they wouldn't compare in quality, absorbancy, fit, and feel. WOW - I was wrong!
My son wears a size 4 in Pampers, but that translates to a 3 in SG diapers. They fit slimmer since they are not as bulky, almost like a pair of underwear. I am sure that must be so much easier for my son as he is getting the hang of walking. They have stretchy tabs, they are made well and they do not leak! The outside is simply light tan, no decorations or tv characters (more attractive in my opinion). And the best part for us, was that his rash cleared up within 8 hours!
