Customer Reviews of Seventh Generation Chlorine Free Diapers, Stage 4 (22-37 Lbs), 34-Count Packages (Pack of 4) (136 Diapers)
Customer Review: Don't BUY these lies
Summary: 1 Stars
We have 1yr old twins and we change diapers every 3 to 4 hours.
These Diapers are anything but Environment Friendly. These diapers are so poor in quality and capacity that we ended up:
1. Using more diapers per day than Huggies or Pampers - resulting in more landfill waste
2. More leakages with poop falling out from fresh diapers - resulting in usage of carpet cleaners, paper towels etc., which in turn results in more garbage and harsher chemicals in the Environment
3. Poor Quality Diapers - while it is OK to have a small percentage of defects, we found more defective diapers in one shipment of these diapers than what we have come across in about 10 shipments of Huggies/Pampers - yes this results in more Landfill waste as well - not to mention the wastage of other resources
To summarize, here is a company that plays the "Green" card very effectively. I would not be surprised if most of the reviews here are from "mystery shoppers" paid by this company.
DO NOT BUY.
Customer Review: Green Machine
Summary: 5 Stars
These diapers may not be the cutest, but who wants their baby wearing attractive undies yet, anyway? I can rely on these as an overnight diaper for my 7 month old without worrying that we'll have leak-out issues, the moisture is efficiently wicked away from baby's skin (preventing moisture rashes and irritation), and they are unbleached and more environmentally friendly than most other brands of throw-away diapers. Diapers are used up so quickly that it's a good idea to order a case at a time online (it's cheaper, and less emergency runs to the market when you see that your diaper bag is empty), unless you're baby is close to changing sizes.
As with most other diapers, don't trust that if your baby fits the size description on the bag--for example, although a baby may only weigh 17 lbs, he/she may not fit stage 3 diapers and needs stage 4 diapers (which are indicated for babies 22-37 lbs). It's all about the circumference of the baby thighs!
Customer Review: Disposasble diapers better than ever - price good too
Summary: 5 Stars
My mom looked shocked when we told her we were using disposable diapers with our first baby (now 4), but she changed her mind after spending the first full day with them. Disposables today are very realible, only leak in extreme circumstances, and are certainly easier to clean up after then cloth diapers.
The Seventh Generation diapers do make me feel a little less bad about using disposables, but I have not done any research to learn if they are, in fact, any better for the environment than any other diapers (I suspect not). These do work as well or better then any of the other name-brand disposables we have tried. Now I wish they made a pull-up for older kids.
Amazon's price is not discounted much (any?) but then I've only rarely seen these at stores with any discount. Amazon Prime ships them to us 2nd day for free - that convenience is more valuable than any rare discount at a grocery.
Customer Review: sub-standard performance!
Summary: 2 Stars
I really had high hopes for these diapers. I bought them based on other reviews. I wanted to originally start using cloth diapers to be environmentally friendly but my little one poops and pee's so often at 8 weeks that I wouldn't be able to keep up with the laundry. I decided that these diapers would be the best of both worlds- environmentally friendly and disposible. To my dismay, 10 out of 14 diapers leaked both poop and pee. My baby sleeps with me on his own little pad and his pee leaked through the diaper, through the pad and onto my mattress. I tried folding the top in to catch excess, I made sure the elastic bits were properly positioned, and I made them tighter and nothing worked. I'm super bummed that I have to go back to pampers until I find another alternative. Maybe my baby is just made differently than those who rave about this product. I gave 2 stars because I liked the color and materials used.Customer Review: Surprisingly impressed with this product
Summary: 4 Stars
I work out of the home full-time and was not able to cloth diaper, like I had intended (and my reasons for wanting to do so were environmental). We ended up starting off with another brand of diaper that we were actually very satisfied with, but often had trouble finding. When I learned about Amazon subscriptions, I thought it was the perfect time to switch to Seventh Generation and I am so happy we did. I love the look of these diapers - natural, clean; when I put them on I see my baby, not some silly character (I hate that other diapers are trying to "sell" me something). THey are soft, almost cloth like, and well, don't have chlorine, which makes me feel at least a tad better about using disposables. The cost is slightly higher than the next leading brand, but I truly think that will be nothing in comparison to the price my children and grandchildren would have to pay if there were more waste in the world.
