Bumgenius Elemental All In One Nappy

Rating:

Slimline, easy to fit and very absorbent. Have never boosted and lasts around 4 hours on my 5 month old. If you wrap the inner booster around the outside of the nappy and hang to dry it dries quicker.

Rating:

Great nappy, only down side is that they take more time to dry than the free time but we have had no issues yet and great fit on my little boy.

Rating:

This is a great AIO, easy to put on and the elasticated tabs give a great fit. It is slim and really absorbent. It takes quite a while to dry which is the only downside but this can be sped up by turning it inside out.

Rating:

very easy to put on, good nappy - not excellent at containing poo and a fairly slow drying time

I bought the elemental as I was looking for an all in one for day trips as I find taking enough of our 2-parters out for the day a packing challenge (we use Bambinex teddies and an airflow). I bought it because of the stated absorbency and because we on occasions use an elemental joy or two which seem to do ok. We’ve used it once, maybe twice and I have been impressed at its absorbency. It competes well with a teddy and a joy with a triple bamboo insert but both sets of my popper nappies are a faff to put on on my super wriggly baby boy. It does take ages to dry, but again I’m used to the teddies. It will remain a lovely day trip nappy along with our joys.

Rating:

Agree with all the rest. Our favourite AIOs to date, well fitted, long lasting, easy to change, very rarely have leaky issues. Perfect for my tall slim-ish 7-month-old, just bought some more.

Very good product!

Glad I managed to get my hands on one bumgenius before the sold out again! Can't wait til they are back in stock and I can place a big order!

Rating:

My LO can stay with this nappy for 5 hours without leaks. I love how slim it is and how easy it is to use.
It takes a bit longer to dry but worth it! definitely I’ll be buying more as soon as there’s is new stock!

Rating:

This is a good AIO. My daughter seems comfortable and it fits well. I’d definitely consider buying further colours. Also very easy to put on. Absorbency was rubbish at first after a handful of washes but is now good for an AIO.

Rating:

Very pleased with this nappy. Great how you can fold the inside towards the front or back of the nappy to suit a boy/girl better, I also like the stretchy tabs to fasten it. There is a small gap around the legs when my son sits down, however no leaks as yet.

Rating:

This is a great all-in-one nappy, slim fitting and easy to boost if needed.

I wish there was more stock!

Rating:

I love bumgenius products and have to say I have found the elementals great AIO's not suffered any leakages. Fit my 7 month old really well.
Fantastic service.

Rating:

I love these. The have fitted my baby beautifully from 8lb and even then they don't seem overly bulky. Very absorbant too.

Rating:

Bought in RNW to try, and love it! One of the first BTP nappies to fit my little girl, love the colour, absorbency is great and isn’t bulky under her clothes. One of my favourites!

Rating:

These nappies are great from the first wash but they are a bit bigger on the legs than others. Shame they changed the design, personality I preferred the v2 as the legs leak less

Rating:

Slim, stylish and great absorbency. I was recommended this nappy after filling out The Nappy Lady questionnaire and it really is living up to my expectations. Super slim and super comfy for my son. Lasts around 3 hours before needing to change. Thanks for your help and choosing that nappy!

Rating:

I really like this nappy. No red marks, comfortable, slim and super absorbent.

Two downsides:
- you need to ensure that the inner is properly tucked inside the PUL, it's really easy to miss a small bit and get a leak.
- Really slow to dry, it takes two days

Lovely fit and comfortable for baby.

Rating:

This nappy is lovely and slim yet super absorbent. They do take a long while to dry due to the great absorbency. No leaks so far, lovely fit and cute print. Worth the money 👍🏽

Rating:

I find that this is the best nappy regarding effectiveness, comfort for the baby (no red marks), mobility, design - they are very slim, softness - they stay soft even if we don't tumble dry them which is not true for all other cotton nappies. Motherease staydry could be a competitor but regretfully they leave red marks on my baby's belly (I guess this is due to his physique) that turn into a rash. I regret not buying them earlier - I would have spent much less. I think that the two part system - Bamboozles with a wrap - and the bumGenius Elemental are the perfect basis for a nappy stash. One doesn't need anything more actually. Just biodegradable liners, and a bucket with a mesh bag. I love the fact that they come in single colours, too.

Rating:

We love the Bumgenius range - especially the elemental ones. The nappies are compact, great prints and the inner organic material is superb. Our baby seems very comfortable in them - no leaks. The only issue is that they take a long time to dry so we do need to plan in advance their wash cycles as at times drying seems to take over a day!

The nappies in itself are of great quality and worth the price that you pay for.

On a different note, the customer service from nappy lady has been simply excellent. Right from the beginning they have guided us in selecting the type of nappies as per our requirements and has made the whole conversion from disposables so much easier!

Rating:

As much as I have been enjoying using the bumgenius products, I was disappoint when washing this particular colour to find it ran in the wash and dyed some of my other clothes with areas of green. It since as been ok, but not a good start!

Rating:

Good quality nappy with high absorbancy. Fits well and it feels well made. Seems a bit shorter than other brands. Accidentally went 5 hours in this one day but there were no leaks. Only downside is that it takes a long time to dry so if your nappy system was going to be elementals then I'd recommend getting a couple of fast drying nappies as well.

We have used these for the last 2 and a half years with 2 different children of completely different builds. We have had so few leaks I could count them on my hands despite having 1 very thin and 1 chunky baby. We still use them on our 3 year old at night with boosters and they are great.
They are the only nappies we have used except newborn ones for the early days so have had a lot of hard use.
Interestingly, despite the advice against all in one nappies because you have to wash the waterproof outer every time we have found that the waterproof outers are still in perfect condition but it is the inners that have worn out and that we are now looking to replace. They are disintegrating through the layers and won't last much longer but the waterproof outers will still do a brilliant job with replacement inners.
Our second baby has been a really heavy wetter so we have found using a booster during the day during growth spurts has been helpful but the nappies are still relatively slim.

Rating:

Great designs and lovely tight fit, don't look awfully bulky like most tend to and easy to use like a disposable, my other half can even work these out.
Could use as day or night nappy as absorbs well.
They are cotton so do take a little while to dry but not as bad as some of my bamboo all in ones from different brands. I must admit a prefer the liner design in the free time version, but overall I prefer the elemental as they are not as bulky.

Rating:

Love these nappies. They fit my slim boy really well at the moment. So easy to put on, and look/feel like they would be nice and comfy for baby round the waist and legs. Really absorbent. The only downside for me is the design of the cotton liner in terms of how it lies at the edges of the legs with the PUL, means you can sometimes get slightly damp clothes as the absorbent part goes right to the PUL, you have to really make sure it's all nicely tucked in/ lying well. But still my Fave to use!!

Great nappy, soft and comfortable. Reasonably quick drying and lovely material

Rating:

One of my go to nappies. Really easy to use and good for childcare. Can't wait for new prints to buy more. 😀

Rating:

Lovely nappy. I only bought one of these, but its so quick and easy to use on my little 2 month old. Not too bulky with fab absorbancy! And i didnt use an additional liner/booster other than a bamninex liner x

Rating:

I've used this on my 9 month old and it lasts for 4 or 5 hours. It's never leaked. Fits him well. I've also used it with a booster over night on my 2 year old and it's been great. It leaked overnight on my baby so I'm using an alternative for him at night time. Very slow to dry so I have a few milovia that arI very quick drying meaning I can wash every other day and always have plenty of nappies.

Rating:

Good quality nappy, easy to use, little bit bulky but definitely worth it to avoid all those disposable nappies in landfill. Excellent service from the Nappy Lady, great advice and tailored help - thoroughly recommend, thank you!

Rating:

Really good quality Nappy- the cotton feels soft even after washing and the popper options work well for my 8week old. I use it as a daytime nappy and have noted
-it does not line dry very quickly.
- it soaks up wees more effectively than BF poos
- any danger of leaks so far has been at the legs.

Rating:

Definitely my favourite in our stash! Very easy to use, great fit, can't find anything negative to say about them!

Rating:

We are over the moon with these nappies. They are a lovely, snug fit and great for our little girl who is likely to be tall and slim. We've had no leaks so far. The colours are gorgeous and they look adorable too, we've had several comments on them! Great service and communication from the nappy lady too plus a fantastic discount as we purchased during cloth nappy week!

Rating:

Got these for a slim daytime option for baby’s christening. Good containment and we were very pleased with them.

Swift, efficient service as always.

Rating:

After having the old style Elemental where both of the cotton layers are loose in the nappy, I have to say that this style works much better. The sewn in layer of the cotton absorbs anything that misses the loose layer. With the old style nappy we would get leg leaks especially when baby had been in the car seat, but so far so good with this version. I will be buying more to replace my old style elementals where the PUL has gone.

Rating:

I love the improvement in the all in one nappy. The “seal” around the legs fits a lot better, the material is light and super soft and it is surprising how absorbent it is. At the same time however it takes longer than the freetime to dry and that is problematic if you’re trying to line dry in front of the radiator. It seems to take a couple of days.

Rating:

I am a recent convert to reuseable nappies. I filled in The Nappy Lady questionnaire and she suggested these nappies for daytime use. I have not been disappointed! They hold much more than I imagined and I haven’t had any poo leakages at all (this happened frequently for us in disposables) They do take a little longer to dry than some other AIO but for me it’s worth it! Super cute prints too! Thanks Nappy Lady!

Rating:

I asked the Nappy Lady for advice as my baby is quite slim and long and most nappies had too much bulk. She recommended trying the Simplex All in One and Bumgenius Elemental. The order came through the next day and both have been great nappies, not at all bulky and no leaks if you make sure all the cloth is tucked in and they're not on more than 3 ish hours. Very happy!

The Bumgenius Elemental were my favourite and so I bought a whole lot second hand and love them. I love the range of colours and the neat fit.

Rating:

Thought this pattern was more gender neautral but it’s really feminine in reality which is a shame

Baby isn’t here yet so can’t comment on durability etc- though I purchased these because they are considered the best according to the research I have a conducted

Rating:

Brilliant night time nappy, with little weeds hemp booster and fleece liner. Haven't had any leaks. Hemp booster seems to big initially but does fit if you pull the nappy on both ends to its full length. Great addition to our bamboozle stretch night nappies, as the bumgenius nappies dry faster, so prevent us from running out of night nappies.

Rating:

I bought one of each of the following AIO nappies (Bambino Miosolo, Bumgenius Elemental, Bamboozle Stretch, EasyFit Star, RealEasy)

The Bumgenius Elemental felt the best made in terms of quality, but took much longer to dry and removing stains (worn without a fleece liner) was much harder than in the others AIOs. It's definitely the smallest; practical to pack in changing bag and less bulky on baby's bum.
I don't think I will be buying more of those because the drying time was too long for how I run my laundry and I'm never confident I have got it on properly.
No leaks though !

Rating:

I had read so many great things about this nappy I had high hopes for it but I was a little disappointed it is overall good, bit tricky to fit and the design means it takes ages to dry but it is absorbent and contains well. However I think for the price there are better nappies for less so not great value.

Rating:

I bought this nappy because of it's great reviews but it wasn't so intuitive for me how to use it, so at first we had several leaks. But then I watched the nappy lady's video and now It's my favorite nappy.

Rating:

So easy and quick to put on my 23 week baby. Not too bulky. I use as my night nappy with a booster and fleece liner and can get 12 hours (baby only wakes once for a feed over night so this could contribute to how long it lasts). Only negative point is that it takes me almost 2 days to dry around the house but for how well it works I plan to just gradually buy more over time to build supply so this won't be an issue.

Rating:

I bough this nappy mainly because is made of 100% cotton. I love it as it looks very slim and it's good absorbancy.

Rating:

Elementals do it all for us. A trim day nappy and with the addition of a hemp booster a night nappy that can go 12 hours. Just love them

Rating:

We use this nappy for night time only, and the Bumgenius Freetime for the day. The Elemental we use with the Hemp Babies Little Weeds booster. It's a bit of a tight fit to get it done up as it's quite thick, but it does make it very absorbant. We have a chubby 2-month-old.
It takes much longer than the Freetime to dry, both because of the fabric, and because you can't open it out so much.

Rating:

Awesome nappy.

I bought a few of these elementals as I needed a few extra nappies for my 2 and a half year old. I usually use Bumgenius V4s, but I wish I'd used elementals from the start! They are so absorbent! With only one slim hemp booster they last a good 3-4 hours, probably more. The other major benefit is that they are much slimmer, and don't take up as much space in the wash as the v4s plus 3 boosters that i usually use!
