Bambino Mio Nappy Bucket

Reusable Nappies- Bambino Mio

Advantages: eco-friendly, economical, no nappy rash
Disadvantages: you need to keep on top of the laundry!

We have used these nappies for over a year now for our third child after using disposables for the first two. I went for Bambino Mio because a) I felt very strongly that I wanted to be eco-friendly this time b) They had good consumer reviews- and I did a lot of research and c) I lived near a local stockist at the time, making it easy to get supplies and sample packs. Basically, you have an outer nappy shell with velcro fastenings which looks a bit like a disposable. It has a waterproof inner and a cotton outer. You can wipe down the waterproof inner and reuse this part. Then there is a rectangular cotton nappy that is several layers thick. You fold this and wrap a liner around it and place it in the shell. Don't be put off by the folding- it is literally two folds, nothing like the old Terry nappies. There are two different ways to ...

Review of Bambino Mio Reusable

Ok for mio bambino's caboose

Advantages: Soft, seem to work well most of the time
Disadvantages: Catch on rough skin, can roll up, small

As you may know from seeing other reviews of mine, hubby and I are on a continuing mission to find good, effective nappy liners to use with the "real" (as opposed to imaginary, har har) nappies our 19 month-old son wears. At this rate, I suspect we'll have potty trained him before we find the right ones... Here?s hoping that others will be able to benefit from our experimentation and research! These nappy liners are quite small (about 8" x 4"), which means they fit neatly into the nappy. However, I feel they are actually too small. If your baby moves around a lot - and let's face it, they all do - the liner can move and end up not protecting the nappy from poo... (yes, it's another poo-based review - eat your dinner later instead!). These have the exact same problem as the One Life liners - they are lovely and soft (again, they ...

Review of Bambino Mio Liners

Bambino Mio and all they have to offer.

Advantages: Can be used with more than one child to save extra money , 100 % cotton
Disadvantages: Quite costly

, I use disposables because I do not like the idea of carrying around a dirty nappy for hours, but most of the time I use cotton nappies. I always put my nappies in the washing machine to wash my nappies and wraps, then I let them dry on the clothes horse, washing line or radiator, however Bambino Mio do sell nappy buckets and some people add tea tree oil or some sort of soaking fluid in - I have never found the need for these, even if my baby has a particularly dirty nappy, the most I have ever had to do is use a hotter wash, I never soak and my nappies are still lovely and clean and fresh, infact those from my first child have been used with my 2nd child. Cost is one of the main factors in buying natural nappies, Bambino Mio say that using cotton nappies saves you upto 60% or £600 if you use them for 1 child, obviously you save more ...
