I’ve tried and researched many brands and nothing is as good as Nateen for functionality (fit, absorption, wear) and compostability. Seventh Generation is basically green-washing, and other more eco-friendly brands seem to disintegrate during use.
When we use disposables, we use one or two diapers for most of the day, and one at night, in conjunction with elimination communication (so lots of pulling up and down to use the potty). With other brands, the material pills and gathers like lint after a couple hours, sticking to baby. Nateen diapers hold up to long wears and absorb well over night.
I looked at the compostability of every eco diaper available in Canada and only Nateen could assure me that I could compost the whole thing at home. Cost-wise they are entirely competitive with any other similar product, and in my opinion they are a superior product all round. The way we use them means we only spend about $40/month on diapers, anyway, and I’m glad to know they won’t sit in a landfill for the rest of eternity. Great customer service, too!
