Tots Bots Bamboozle Stretch (Stretchies) Nappy

Rating:

I bought the Tots Bot bamboozle stretch nappies after filling out the Nappy Lady’s questionnaire. I got very comprehensive advise and bought these as part of this. The nappies are great quality. Easy to use and work very well at night for my daughter who is a heavy wetter. Postage was also extremely quick. I will definitely buy from the nappy lady again and more Tots Bot bamboozles for when she outgrows these.

I turned to these to try and get baby as far through the night with minimal changes. He wees A LOT and I was having to use disposables but then they kept leaking. These came to the rescue, they are such a lovely easy to use nappy. The bamboo makes them more absorbent and the stretchy-ness makes them a great fit. The other reusables I use become quite tight as they get wetter, but the stretch on these mitigates that problem. They are slower drying but not so much it’s an inconvenience. They’re well priced as well. The peenut wraps and patterns are gorgeous.

Bought this to use as a night time nappy and it's been great, no leaks (as long as used with plenty of boosters) and stretches round my 18month old well

Rating:

We decided to go with these as our day nappy (with motherease wraps) instead of Little Lambs mainly because they are much less bulky than LLs (especially if you don't use the booster) and because we will probably only ever need the one size (we started on these at about 8lb) so more economical than buying a size 1 nappy where we would definitely need the size 2. They do take longer to dry being bamboo but they will still dry in 24hrs on an airer in the bathroom with the dehumidifier on for the daytime. Haven't had any leaks so far, and the containment is great (we had so many poo leaks onto the wraps when using Muslins, but haven't had a single dirty wrap since we switched to the bamboozles.) The laundry tabs are also more reliable at staying closed in the wash than the LLs. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a less bulky 2-part system!

Rating:

While these are thick and absorbant we tend to avoid using them in our batch as they take so long to dry (2+ days near our radiator). We don’t feel that makes it last any longer than some of the others we have bought (ie we can’t leave on all night) but we have a heavy wetter.

Rating:

We use these nappies at night, and they are really absorbent. Having used disposables with my first baby before making the switch to cloth with my second, they seemed quite bulky at first, but I'm used to them now and love them, they work really well.

Rating:

These are great, easy to use and absorbent nappies. The size 1 is perfect for smaller babies and looks set to last us up to about 9 months. It’s so absorbent that it lasts well overnight (assuming baby sleeps the full night!). Love them.

Rating:

I wasn't sure when this nappy arrived but having used it I think it makes an excellent night nappy. It isn't quick to dry but given its bulk it was quicker than I expected. And it looks good.

We are using Bamboozles with a single Ellas House bum hugger booster for our 16 week old boy and so far they are brilliant, he is in the nappy for up to 10 hours at night and we have only had 1 leak which we think was our doing not the nappy. They are easy to use and he seems very comfortable in them. This is our 1st baby and think they are a great option for 1st time cloth nappy users

Totsbots were the first nappy brand I ever used and they’ve never disappointed me. I love all of their products but the bamboozle is amazing. Our girl is a heavy wetter but we’ve never had a single leak from this nappy (up to 12 hours) I honestly can’t rave enough. We started using Totsbots peenut wraps but I had read a lot about the motherease airflows. Although the peenut wrap did the job and we had no leaks, I liked the idea of my daughter getting some airflow during the night so switched over. I guess it’s personal preference but either worked for us. I’ve never read a bad thing about this nappy, you won’t be disappointed.
Excellent 5* service from TNL as always.

I have previously used a range of pocket nappies with my son, but this is the first two part nappy that I have used and I am so impressed at the containment. It also has a great fit. Most of my btp nappies are still gaping around the legs of my 10lb baby, but this one fits perfectly already.

Rating:

Lovely, soft fabric, but the shaped nappy system is not pleasant for the baby (having to adjust 2 parts of a nappy on them).
Drying is very slow.

Rating:

I’m no stranger to Totsbots bamboozle stretch, having used them since I had my first child 8 years ago. I bought more this time around for my 4th baby, just to update my stash with the new cute animal prints. The quality is still amazing, and it’s a staple in this household for daytime use. It contains breastfeed poo and we never ever had a leak in them. One thing I must say about Totsbots nappies is that their Velcro is THE BEST. I’ve bought so many nappies in the last 8 years, and I’m still using the old ones—I never had a problem with them when other brands may give way after a while (no matter how much I clean or de-fluff the velcro)

Rating:

Have heard amazing things about these nappies but from what we’ve tried so far they don’t quite live up to the hype. Don’t get me wrong they are great and do the job-but we haven’t found them to be as absorbent or as long fitting as we’d imagined. After prewashing three times and with a booster they’re still not as absorbent as little lambs or even a good pocket. They are slim, which is lovely, but not as good a fit as the bambinex on our tall 11 month old (he’s already on the biggest setting).

Brought these from The Nappy Lady (whose advice and service was excellent). According to the Tots Bots website the size two, which I brought, should hold up to 715ml and it is advertised as a night nappy, keeping baby dry all night. I’m not entirely sure how this amount is calculated but it seems wrong. In my experience the nappy holds much less. My baby is 6 months and an average size. The bamboozles don’t fit well on the tummy and leave a gap when she lies on her back. We use the bamboozle booster and a double peanut booster inside and in the morning (10hrs) she is lying in a puddle. The peanut wraps don’t seem to fit well over the top either, even when not used with any boosters. They leave gaps too (where the nappy is outside of the wrap). Goodness knows how these would work on a bigger baby when they can’t seem to do what is advertised on a 6 month old. Quality wise the nappy is lovely and soft and if tumble dried even for 10 mins it comes out nice and fluffy. Although it’s cream to begin with it ends up white after a few washes. The velcro is robust and the back and legs are quite stretchy, just not the tummy part. It’s easy to put on and take off. I honestly don’t think I would recommend these to anyone as a night tine nappy at all. So it’s back to the search for a night time nappy that fits well and doesn’t leak......

Rating:

Got these for nighttime use as recommended on the questionnaire (baba and boo for daytime). We find this one very bulky and more difficult to use than B&B due to outer wrap. I’m sure that the extra nighttime absorbency is a worthwhile trade off but currently we are still changing our little girl’s nappy during the nighttime so not yet necessary for us. If I was starting again I would buy these to try them when our daughter was slightly older and we weren’t doing the nighttime changes.

Rating:

We have used these as night nappies from 5/6 months onwards. We use the inserts and fleece liner and use a Motherease Airflow wrap on the outside. They have been very good and we rarely have leakages. Even when it does leak it's very minor. They do take a day or so to dry and the velcro gets a bit stuck together, but it's not a deal breaker.

Rating:

I was recommended these by the nappy lady for nighttime use but they're not the best for us. I bought 3 x size 2 nappies new and 4 x size 1 nappies second hand. Size 1 we outgrew around 3 months. Size 2 we are still using (8 months) but find they don't fit well around chunky thighs while getting a bit gappy around the waist. They take about 2 days to dry inside or one day if it's hot and sunny outside.
Bambinex size 2s are a bit bigger and would have been better. I've recently got a Bubblebubs bamboo delights which are side-fastening, a much better fit and quicker to dry. Wish I'd got these first!

Rating:

I use this mainly as a night nappy and as a day one every so often. It contains and absorbs well. I have the red and blue coloured ones & the colour does not run out at all so it can be washed with other nappies from the first time. I also have the ‘natural’ colour which feels much softer than the coloured ones however the coloured options dry slightly faster. If used as a night nappy you want Mother-ease stay dry booster as well other wise it’s too wet on baby’s skin.
Dries out for about two days inside or outside (I don’t have tumble dryer).

Rating:

Excellent all rounder. I use with a motherease wrap. Best fit on my baby when he was 8lbs with skinny thighs and fits really well now that he is 14lb and chunky. This is the perfect night nappy when used with a motherease stay dry booster. They dry in about 6-8hours on a lakeland heated airer and within 24 hours on a non heated airer in warm weather.
I use bambinex nappies too but find these retain their softness better in a hard water area.
My husband prefers the all in one nappies, however these are my joint favourite with the Teddy nappies (not as absorbant but so soft and they dry quickly after washing)

Rating:

We bought these for our 9 month old baby after several leaks in his all-in-one cloth nappys. It seems he's a 'heavy-wetter'; so, I filled in the online Nappy Lady questionnaire and these were recommended. We use them with a wrap and a bamboo reusable liner. They work a treat and are super easy to change.

Rating:

These are fantastic for our chunky 3 month old who sleeps for 12 hours! Not had any issues with leaks. Teamed with an airflow wrap these are fantastic.
Patterns are great and they line dry in a day if warm enough amd still stay soft.

Rating:

These are super absorbent and fit really nicely. They are great for a night time nappy!

For us we couldn't use these in the day because they take too long to dry so we would need loads of them. They also aren't super soft like our teddy's which we use in the day.

Rating:

These are truly birth to potty with both my newborn and my 2 1/2 year old wearing them at night. We love bamboozles and they are foolproof to fit as well.

Rating:

I genuinely could not be more impressed with these nappies (& the help from the nappy last and team). As a total rookie to cloth nappies, I expected a bit of leakage perhaps and extra hassle with washing, but I am blown away with how good and easy they are to use. Happy Mummy & happy baby. No leaks at all so far in our 6m old and only one nappy with stay dry booster all night! They are far far better than disposables in terms of performance and I simply wasn’t expecting that. Can not recommend highly enough.

Rating:

I have bought a range of nappies to try on my just 2 year old. This is great; slim fitting, absorbent, it washes well and stays soft. The drying time can be over 24hrs. This nappy is just like a Bambinex, which is cheaper. So if I was to buy any more, I would go for a Baminex.

Rating:

I was so relieved to find these for my big 2 year old to wear as night nappies. We'd been using prefolds, but struggling recently to get anything to fit properly. She's around 14.5kg and these look so comfy with growing room to spare. Tha is for the recommendation!

Rating:

I use this nappy with a Motherease Airflow wrap on my heavy wetter 8 week old and so far no leaks. I have to use the insert or it gets wet through but it’s still relatively slim with a fleece liner to keep the pee away from his skin.

Rating:

Have nothing to compare to but these have made transition to cloth so easy. Wash well.

Rating:

I bought a whole bunch of bamboozles for my now 4 month old and have been successfully using them for 2 months now. They are really absorbent, we don't even need the boosters all the time, and they have stayed soft so far despite me living in a really hard water area. Also, in two months, we've never had a poosplosion! One downside is that they are quite bulky (we use them in the daytime) but I did know that going in, we've just sized up in new clothes and bought vest extenders. I also love the prints. They might be covered in a wrap but this way my LO has a lovely bum in both his nappy and wrap!

Rating:

My daughter was shy of 5lb, so waited until she was 6lb before using the bamboozle nappies.
They are easy to use, absorbent and easy to wash
Drying time - Can take 48hours in a well heated room.
I bought some over the radiators airers to aid in the drying time.
Very impressed with The nappy.

Rating:

These nappies are the perfect night nappy. They last my little one all night, have soft elastic for when she's wiggling around lots and have never leaked on me.

Rating:

Nice fabric, good nappy, absorbent, looks good, washes well.

Rating:

I use these at night with an extra booster pad for my little girl. I've never had any leaks. Highly recommend for nights. They're easy to use. They fit great with the Little Lamb wraps. They definitely do take a long time to dry so buy enough accordingly.

Rating:

I find these really good night nappies (or to use during the day when nervous baby hasn't pooed for a while) - although they take a long time to dry so I only use them as back ups. If you have plenty of drying space I recommend these.

Rating:

Size 2: Soft, comfy and fits both my newborn and small-average 2 year old very well.
Just to compare, i have little lamb size 1s and they do not fit well. The tots bots are much thinner at the front velcro area and thus nowhere near as bulky. Also, the width of the velcro is half as wide as LL narrower so the fit is better, allows more body flexibility and doesn't chafe the abdominal skin.
Will get more!!!

Rating:

I love these nappies for overnight with a hemp
Babies booster between nappy and wrap, and an airflow over the top. No leaks at all on my six month old.

Rating:

Best nappy. Soft and comfy. Never any leaks of either sort. Can last 8hrs at night for us if need be. I was a little dubious about the drying time before buying but haven’t found this an issue in the last 5 months. We have 20 nappies and have never run out.

Rating:

I wasn’t aware of just how bulky these (and all really) reusable nappies would look on my newborn. He was 7.7lb when born and I’d say even the size 1s he needed to be closer to 10lb for them not to swamp him. I’ve also been concerned that as they’re so big they’re restricting his leg movements...I don’t know if this is actually a problem but until he’s a bit stronger I’m not putting these on him in the day. I’ve been using with the PeeNut and motherease airflow wraps - both work but I think 2 layers of Velcro on the PeeNut is quite restricting round his tummy and can dig in, so the poppers on motherease are better. They are very absorbent though and I haven’t had any wee or poo leaks yet, even onto the wrap! I definitely recommend size 1s for the first 6 months, going to size 2 from 10lb would be way too bulky in my opinion.

Rating:

Always use these at night. Love them

Rating:

I used these for my first baby for nighttime and they were fantastic. I washed them extensively and they held up for ages. Now I bought more for my second baby and very excited to use them again.

Rating:

I love this nappy! It's wonderfully soft and as the title suggests, stretchy! It means that it's really flexible around little hips, bums and thighs. It's really slim fitting find too. I use them with the peenut wrap and it's a great combo.
As ever, first class service from the nappy lady. Quick response time to any questions and the nappies arrive so quickly after ordering it's amazing!

Rating:

Been using these nappies at night for my 5 week old boy. He's a really heavy wetter but the bamboozles have contained everything! Never had a leak, super easy to use and cute designs. Paired with an airflow wrap they are absolutely brilliant.
Size 1 fit my baby from birth and he was a small 6.5lb baby. They do look bulky on tiny babies and I could never get the fit right with the poppers done up at the front so I've just left them open which works fine.

Rating:

Really good night nappy, so far we haven't had any leaks and we are only using the booster that comes with the nappy (no need of an additional one). It's also great for local economy because they are made in Scotland. The only downside is that they take quite long to dry, but that is something common to all bamboo nappies.

Rating:

My daughter can wet through a disposable in less than an hour but we've been using these overnight since she was 4 months old and they've been brilliant. Never had a leak! She's now almost 2 and they still look new. We've had to boost with a little weeds booster ( because of the inevitable toddler 'floods') but that's to be expected with her. Excellent nappy.

Rating:

This nappy is easy to use and absorbancy is quite good but I have found it has shrunk quite alot in the first few washes and i cant see it being very long before my 16lb 5month old grows out of it. It was more expensive then other similar brands and in my opinion not worth the extra money.

Rating:

Absolutely my favourite nappy so far! Great fit and the poppers allow scope to alter as he grows!
Find the waist really comfortable with plenty of space and not too hard or bulky to cause discomfort! Great containment and absorption allowing day or night use.

Rating:

Highly recommend these as both daytime and nighttime nappies. I use with Peenut wraps and they too are great. Less bulky than I had anticipated, so my little one wears them during the day too! Take a while to dry, but definitely worth it

Rating:

These fit great, even a slimmer legged baby. The absorbency is really good considering it is not bulky. I have only given it 4 stars because I prefer other brands. My baby is a heavier wetter and from the previous reviews I was expecting this to be super amazing.

Rating:

Soft and really absorbant. Our preferred night time nappy
