Modern Cloth Nappies - What am I paying for?

So you've searched the internet, found fifty different nappies varying from $3 to $50. What do you buy? Will the $3 nappy work? What benefit will the $50 nappy bring over a $20 nappy.

The world of cloth nappies can be confusing. Often the pricing means very little, a $40 nappy will most likely work as a $20 nappy does. You may be paying more for a number of things - a pretty pattern, a large advertising budget or just because the nappy company decided that's what they want to charge you. You may be paying for a few extra features (some are gimmicks) - consider if these are necessary for you!

Price will vary between nappies made of Minky, PUL or Cotton outer. Microfibre, cotton or bamboo absorbency. Made in China, New Zealand or Australia will create a big difference too. In addition to this the design of the nappy - how many inserts? Is it sized or OSFM? Does it have gussets etc? Is it handmade with applique, ruffles, embroidery etc?

Here at Baby Bare, our nappies are currently $20 a nappy. Don't be fooled by the great price, we purposefully retail our nappies at this price point to offer parents excellent value and a wonderful product. We are able to do this by limiting our overheads and attempting to sell more nappies for less.

So what does our nappy offer? We have a highly absorbent bamboo insert that should see your nappies last 3-4 hours. The outer of the nappy is made with 2.5mm Minky hair which is a heavier weight minky (it's what makes our nappies so soft and fluffy!) - many others use a much thinner minky and you will feel the difference when you hold one of our nappies. An extremely soft microsuede inner, soft leg elastics and quality snaps top it off. We have our minky laminated rather then an extra layer of fabric in the nappies in order to avoid that crunchy sound some brands have. We offer a 6 month guarantee on your nappies and a lifetime of support for any issues you experience with fit, care or use.

All the feedback we get tells us parents love our nappies, that they outlast their more expensive branded nappies and that they love the price! After all, Baby Bare was started to offer Aussie parents an affordable nappy that was just as great as anything else on the market! Check out some of the reviews our lovely customers have left on the internet.

So don't think you have to pay a fortune to get a great nappy! There are many great nappies on the Australian market and it can be difficult to choose between them. The more expensive brands will tell you you have to spend $35+ to get a usable nappy, this isn't true. If you want to make some great savings while still keeping your kids in a great looking, soft, and easy to use nappy, try out Baby Bare!
