Button Diapers Review

Button Diapers are All-in-2 diapers

What are All-In-2’s?

Okay newbies! An all in 2 diaper works like this: You have an outer shell. This outer shell is to be reused. On the inside you snap in a removable liner. The liner is what gets soiled. Once soiled you simply unsnap the liner and toss the liner in the laundry. The cover is typically still clean (except for those super crazy heavy pee moments & blow outs) and you just snap a new liner on and place back on baby. These are super great for saving laundry time. Having only the liner to wash instead of the entire diaper allows you to save on wash time. I like to drip dry all of the diapers so this makes my turn around time a lot longer. With All-In-2’s I can lessen my laundry pile and use my covers faster. Covers DO need to be washed when soiled and occasionally. You wash your hoodie every few times you use it, same concept (you better wash that hoodie dude or no one is going to want to sit next to you soon).

What is different about Button Diapers?

“Quality, affordable, and adorable cloth diapers. Buttons’ is an easy to use two-in-one system. Our one-size diaper covers can snap to fit babies from 9-35 lbs, and are made of 2 layers of soft wipeable PUL with double gussets around the legs. Our snap-in diaper inserts are soft and absorbant, and come in two sizes.” – Button Diapers Website

Button diapers have a few features which make them unique:

  1. The PUL (a soft laminated fabric which is wipe-able like plastic but soft to touch) is made with 2 layers. This makes it more durable.
  2. Double gussets. This means it is more secure around the leg holes. My son has super skinny legs and sometimes will leak out of leg holes. This helps keeps things in. I really love this feature. It saves me from extra outfit changes when a diaper would leak.
  3. Snap-in inserts. The part that gets soiled, the insert, is snapped into place. This is perfect cause you don’t have to worry about the insert shifting around inside the diaper as your child jumps off the furniture giving you an irregular heartbeat and added anxiety. We have enough to worry about as a parent, worrying about the insert shifting and not even catching urine shouldn’t be one of them.

What Does Button Diapers Sell?

Mama’s Experience

I really like the PUL that Buttons uses. It is easy to wash and doesn’t leave marks on my son’s legs or belly. I have used both the daytime microfiber inserts (which have a top layer of super duper soft fleece for the skin side) and the microfiber nighttime doubler (also has the fleece top layer). Both work great for daytime use with my son. He is currently 20 lbs and 17 months old. I have not tried this diaper overnight on him. I LOVE the snap in feature. The snaps are very secure but easy to unsnap in a pinch. I love being able to use the same diaper cover for several uses by simply changing the insert. It is recommended to change the diaper cover every 3 changes. This really helps cut down your wash loads and dry time. Less diaper to wash = less diaper to dry!

The only negative or con of this diaper is that it only have 1 snap. There is no hip snap. There is only the top snap by the waist, no second row snap. This would be fine for normal sized babies, but my son is very tiny. He still wears 3-6 month or 9 month pants even though he is 17 months old. He has not leaked out of a Button’s diaper. This may because I am paranoid and change him super fast after he soils it. You can tell is loose around his thighs because the diaper starts to slip out of the leg holes. Keep in mind that my child is VERY skinny. Note his pant sizes. An average baby will not have this issue with a Buttons diaper.

  1. “you better wash that hoodie dude or no one is going to want to sit next to you soon” LOL!!!

    Our first and only Buttons’ diaper was Afternoon Tea. I had been looking for a diaper with this type of print for a few weeks and I had to have it!! I also wish it had a second row of snaps, because my daughter is skinny as well. Which in turn makes me grateful for the double gusset. We bought the microfiber inserts but am hoping to upgrade to hemp soon! I’m nervous to try the diaper overnight because we have a tried & true night time system that I don’t want to mess up. 🙂

  3. We only have 2 button’s diapers but I think they are awesome, especially for the price. The PUL is high quality and even has a little stretch to is which I like. I think it’s awesome that they offer hemp inserts. Great review!

  5. We are new to cloth diapering and plan to use mostly covers and prefolds. It looks like the AI2 has some similar pros (less laundry, since the cover can be used for multiple changes), and I really like that the absorbent layer gets snapped in.

  6. Can I just say that I love buttons diapers because they are so darn cute!! I can’t even contain myself lol!! I don’t know if they would be a great fit for us as we tend to have very slender kiddos thigh wise. But I would try them in a second!!

  9. I love that these diapers have a snap for the insert! And that you can reuse the cover. Anything to save on laundry is okay by me!

  10. They seem to be good quality. Would like to try this brand when my little fella arrives. Thanks.

  12. I love that the diaper cover can be used through a couple changes by just snapping in new inserts. That would be really convenient. I didn’t know that Buttons Cloth Diapers PUL is made with 2 layers. That’s good to know. I should be really durable and last quite a while. I would love to try one of these diapers.

  14. I learned that this is basically my prefolds and covers, except instead of wrestling a wiggly baby trying to snappi a prefold, I can just snap that insert in beforehand. Very handy.

  17. I love that they are AI2s, and that the inserts snap in! I’m sure that helps save from some diaper mishaps 🙂

  18. Thanks for the great review- My baby is long and lean (though not nearly as lean as your little guy!). It’s great hearing how diapers fit on other babies.

  19. I have one Buttons cover and it has quickly become a favorite of mine! I didn’t realize that it was made with two layers of PUL- that’s awesome for a heavy wetter like mine. Thanks for a great review!

  22. I would love to try out a al2. I currently pocket style and use all in one. Would love to sample your product!

  25. Thank you for the review! With an investment like cloth diapering its good to be able to read about sizing and durability and such!

  26. I have one of these and was amazed at how durable the cover feels! Didn’t know it was due to two layers of PUL.

  27. Two words. Double Gussets. Every diaper should have double gussets and I love that these do! I have yet to try these but I really, really want to!

  30. I learned about this brand of diapers. I have heard about them in the past but never really knew what type they were. I love the AI2’s and this print is adorable!

  31. I love their new releases! I first tried a buttons when they were still really new and I kept checking back and for a while they only had their original colors. I was so stoked when I seen their first prints!

  32. I am a newbie at learning about this kind of diaper, but since my daughter wants to use them with my granddaughter, I need to catch up with the times and terminology. Thanks for the review.

  33. I love that the all-in-two system has snaps for the inserts. We mostly use covers, flats, and liners and trying to get all of that on a wiggly baby with snaps on the outer closure is a pain. I would be very interested on trying this diaper. My only concern would be that my little man is a bit on the skinny side as well.

  34. I am very interested in the all-in-two system since they have snaps on the inserts. We currently mostly use covers, flats and liners which has it’s perks but is quite difficult with a wiggly baby that hates diaper changes. Add in the fact that most of our closures are snaps and it’s a nightmare. I will keep in mind the one snap closure on these though since my little fella is also a bit skinny.

  35. I really am interested in these diapers after reading your review. Thank you. I’m just getting into cloth so I’ve got a lot to learn!
