Pampering the chef

Advantages: You get lunch - and I don't cook it
Disadvantages: Its Party Plan

...Pampering the chef? Well to my mind any idea of pampering the chef, well me is basically taking me out for dinner with plenty of wine and I don?t have to do the washing up, but we all know its not like that very often. The Pampered Chef is an American company that sells kitchen goods through a party plan system. Now I have never been much for party plan type parties, where you are invited along get a few nibbles and a glass of wine then feel obliged to buy something you will never use (and for all those of you remembering your last Ann Summers party, take that smirk off your face!) so when I was invited to a Pampered Chef party I accepted only because it was a very good friend of mine. The company itself has been going since 1980 and was started by a lady called Doris Christopher. It has been operational in the UK now since 1999...

Review of Pampers Baby Dry

Advantages: Thin, abosrbent, does a great job, no leaks
Disadvantages: Quite Expensive

...I have been using Pampers Baby Dry since my son was around 5 months old, and I think they have let me down on just 3 occasions, which is pretty good going considering he is now 16 months old! *Pampers* Pampers nappies have been around since 1961, making them 46 years old. They began with pins in the sides instead of sticky tabs, which were not introduced until the 1970's. The 80's saw the biggest change of Pampers, with the nappies being made thinner, elasticated around the legs, and sticky tapes which could be moved many times without ruining the nappy, and the nappy weight was decreased by 50%. The 90's saw gender specific nappies by Pampers, pink for girls and blue for boys but Pampers returned to Unisex nappies again at the end of the decade. Pampers standards have remained the same since then, and they have kept improving...

Review of Pampers Nappies

Pamper your baby's bum with Pampers

Advantages: Reliable nappies, frequently on promotion
Disadvantages: None, providing you shop around for offers

...Having just come too close for comfort to a leaky poo-filled nappy with my youngest son, I felt compelled to review the brand I've been using. Not, as you might expect, to have a rant about the poor quality but to confirm that this is (thankfully) such a rare occurance with Pampers Baby Dry Nappies that they are worthy of praise indeed! Nappy manufacturers aren't stupid people and they know that parents are likely to remain loyal to one particular brand if they are proven to be reliable and good value for money from the early days of nappy use. It is this reason (and not that they are particularly generous, kind individuals) that they bombard new parents and expectant mums-to-be with free nappy samples and money off coupons. Make sure you sign up to the Pampers baby club online to make the most of the freebies! This is a very...

Review of Pampers Baby-Dry

pampers

Advantages: soft, strong, comfortable and easy to put on
Disadvantages: expensive

...i think pampers are the best nappies on the market. i have 4 children aged between 2 and 12 and have used them for each child. never experienced sore bottoms, rashes or leaky nappies. i have occasionally used other quality brand nappies and can say that no other compares to pampers. they are expensive, but you pay for quality and if you shop around you can get bargains. the nappies are soft and strong. i travel a lot on long distances with my children and sometimes have not been able to change a nappy at the right time. even after lengthy wearing there are still no leaks or sore bottoms. they are also easy to but on a wriggly bottom and are soft for your newborn baby. well worth the money....

Review of Pampers Active Fit

Pampers Nappys

Advantages: Keeps baby dry
Disadvantages: Can be expensive compared to other brands

...These are really brillant Nappys I find that my son can stay dry up to 12 hours ( overnight) without them leaking. so really good if you dont want to keep changing nappies every hour or so or even have baby waking up because of a wet nappy The nappys are reaaly good at absorbing moisture away from babys skin so no nappy rash with these nappys They are also excellent for staying up - My son is now a active toddler that runs around everywhere and they are just what he needs. The nappys fit around my sons legs perfect with no chafting or rubbing to the skin which is brillant. I would recommend these nappys and have tried and tested a few brands on my son and have found Pampers to be one of the best...

Review of Pampers Nappies

Pampers for happy bums and happy mums

Advantages: Absorb well, non-leak, fit well, easy to fasten, range of different sizes
Disadvantages: Slightly more expensive than most other brands

...In my experience Pampers are the best nappies on the market. I first started using Pampers nappies when I was brought numerous packs of Newborn Pampers during my pregnancy, and never looked back. Once my baby had outgrown newborn nappies I moved onto Pampers Baby Dry and then on to Pampers Easy Ups (I won't be including Easy Up's in this review as they aren't strictly classed as nappies). Unlike some other nappies I have tried, Pampers don't leak. Not even after a long night or an extra runny poo! They absorb well and my babys skin was never wet when I changed her, even if her nappy was heavy. My baby never had bad nappy rash either. The nappies are really breathable which means her skin never got too sticky and moist. They are very stretchy and elastic around the legs which meant I didn't have to worry about them rubbing...

Pampers sensitive wipes

Advantages: Soft and strong
Disadvantages: Not wet enough for me.

...I was recently sent a pack of Pampers Sensitive Baby wipes for testing from one of my survey sites and as these are available to buy in the shops I thought I would do a review on them. My usual brand is Johnsons and have always got on very well with them but if something is free I will definately use them. The Pampers Range Pampers do a range of products for babies and toddlers including nappies and training pants, baby wipes and Kandoo toilet paper for children. Their nappy range has 3 different types, Baby dry for newborn babies, Active Fit for mobile babies and Easy up Pull up pants for potty training. All available in numerous sizes. Three types of baby wipes, Naturals with calming lavender scent, Baby Fresh with lotion and Sensitive with Chamomile and Aloe. The Pampers range is produced by Proctor and Gamble...

Review of Pampers Sensitive Wipes

Pampers Nappies

Advantages: Lots of varieties
Disadvantages: They dont come with odor control

...Hi! I had Pampers used on me, so the first pack of nappies I bought when I was pregnant were Pampers New Baby. PRICE ****** All of Pampers nappies are around £5.65 per pack regardless of the size. Instead of the price changing as the baby gets older and needs bigger nappies, you just get less in each pack, this rule applies to the more "luxury" types such as Active Fit and Easy Up Pants. Below are a few examples: £5.65 for: 36 Newborn "New Baby" 26 Size 4 "Active Fit" 22 size 4 "Easy up Pants" Sizes ******* All babies need nappies for atleast 18 months, many even longer, so it is important to keep them comfy. Pa,pers grade their nappies by the weight of the baby. Each catagory has a number eg: *baby dry* these work out the cheapest, 6-13lb (3-6kg) Mini (size 2) 9-20lb (4-9kg) Midi (size 3) 15-40lb...

Review of Pampers Nappies

Pampers Naturals: Wipes for Ruby-Lu's bottom.

Advantages: Lightly scented, nice & moist, good packet, no rashing or irritation occurred.
Disadvantages: Overpriced when not on offer, lots of wipes come out together.

...sick or had a particularly dirty nappy change and it's in danger of going on the mat or my leg or something similar so I'm normally frantically trying to get her cleaned up and prevent further mess (I'm still relatively new to her disgustingly runny pooh!). Ruby unfortunately suffers from eczema and has had this since birth but she did not have any particular reaction to these wipes and no spots or rashes occurred when using these in conjunction with Pampers Baby-Dry Size 3 (see previous review if interested). They are lightly scented with lavender and it's not overwhelming and these do not foam or anything when using them so that's great. I think that the standard price is quite expensive for what these are as I found the Tesco Ultra Soft Wipes (light green packet) to be better and these are over half price for more wipes. I would...

Review of Pampers Naturals

Pampers and poo!

Advantages: Pretty pictures and stretchy bits!
Disadvantages: One of the more expensive brands and runny poo

...I am a new mum, to a 16 week old baby girl who I am breast-feeding. Like many other new mums, I have tried a range of nappies. Quite often, my decision to buy is based on cost, so, if a product is on 'buy-one-get-one-free' or 'two for £10' or I have vouchers, for example, I'm likely to try it. Generally speaking, Pampers would be out of my price range, but as they were on offer, I bought two packs. When I opened the pack (size 3), my first thought was of how thin they appeared to be. This is often seen as an advantage, particularly when comparing disposables to reusables. Second was how lovely it was to have pretty pictures all over (pointless, but nice!),and third, was how stretchy the sides and fixings were. All good, so far then. Then, the test. I am aware, (aren't we all?) of how runny a baby's bottom can be...
