Mums review tooshies reusable cloth nappies
tooshies is synonymous with creating eco-conscious products that are better for your baby’s skin and the environment. From biodegradable baby wipes and nappy bags to their baby nappies made with organic bamboo, their products have been well received by parents in the Tell Me Baby community. It’s no surprise that tooshies has now launched a range of reusable cloth nappies to help parents reduce plastic waste even further.
Available in four vibrant colours and prints, tooshies’ Reusable Cloth Nappies are designed to fit babies weighing from 4kg to about 17kgs. They come with velcro tabs and a booster layer for additional adjustment and easy-wearing on wiggly babies.
tooshies cloth nappies are made from soft, breathable polyester micro fleece and poly terry fabric that is vegan and cruelty-free. Fitted with seven layers, they are highly-absorbent and quick drying. Unlike many other reusable nappies, tooshies cloth nappies are easily available in Coles supermarkets and at $22 a nappy, they also cost less than many other reusable brands.
We asked a group of mums from our reviewer community to test out tooshies Reusable Cloth Nappies and many of them felt they’re a great “starter nappy” for parents switching to reusable nappies for the first time.
Here’s what the mums had to say:
“Great entry to cloth nappies”
One of the mums said, “The design is very similar to your standard snap nappies, just with the velcro waist. This will be good for those new to modern cloth.” A few other mums had the same observation. “Overall, for the price, I would recommend these nappies. They are a good entry point into cloth. They are also convenient for toilet training as my toddler can easily open the Velcro closures and take the nappy off herself.”
“It’s a middle of the range priced nappy and a great one to start with if you haven’t used modern cloth nappies before.”
“Easy to use cloth nappies”
Some of the mums found the Velcro feature added to the convenience of using reusable nappies however, some others indicated a preference for snap studs.
One of the mums commented, “I loved the idea of the Velcro and I think with smaller babies it would be great.”
Another reviewer said, “These nappies are super easy to use – the velcro makes adjusting size on bub very easy. My husband always reaches for these nappies instead of our other nappies which have snap closures, as these are much easier to use and adjust to size.”
Soft inner material with good absorbency
Most of the reviewers were pleased with the feel of the inner material on their bubs’ skin. One of the mums noted, “The Tooshie Reusable nappies are really soft as they have used polyester micro fleece and poly terry fabric for their inner layers. For a light wetter this would be great, however, for my heavy wetter I would have liked a bamboo booster insert. We didn’t have any leakage issues which can be a problem with some brands of nappies.”
Another mum said,”I find we don’t need the booster during the day, but have used them overnight for that extra absorption. The booster is really easy to add in from the side. I found that they were very quick to absorb and my son kept dry. He seems very comfortable in them as well.”
Gorgeous gender-neutral prints and colours
Most of our reviewers were impressed with the initial look and feel of the tooshies reusable nappies, which come in four different colours and prints.
One of the mums said, “The prints are great colours and don’t look like ‘nappies’ and have cute designs. They feel and look very luxurious and the performance of them matches.” Another commented, “the colours are gorgeous and great for both genders. I love the patterns on all of them.”
“The designs were cute and the colours were a nice vibrant colour which looked cute on bubs.”
