Sometimes I add boiling water from the tea kettle in the middle of the cycle, but I am pretty sure this voids the warranty. I have bum genius and fuzzibuns pocket diapers.</p> <p>The inserts in the bum genius ones definitely are less fluffy than before, but they still seem absorbent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/got-my-cloth-today-question#post-208992 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 14:03:27 +0000 ohapostrophe 208992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like doing the deep soak with rockin green that is described on the back of the bag. I do that every 3-4 months and it seems to work well for our BGs, they're 15 months old now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/got-my-cloth-today-question#post-208955 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 13:34:57 +0000 T.H.O.U. 208955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've heard you can do several hot washes, but my favorite way to do my inserts is putting them in boiling water. Don't put anything with PUL in boiling water though.</p> <p>I have not been happy with how my BG inserts have held up. If they were used for 8 months, it may be worth it to just find some cheap inserts to buy new. After just 6 months I'm considering replacing my inserts because they just won't get fluffy again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/got-my-cloth-today-question#post-208893 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 13:01:33 +0000 Mrsbells 208893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only just started using mine so i'll be following this thread too </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/got-my-cloth-today-question#post-208888 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 13:00:37 +0000 loveisstrange 208888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, I got my cloth today! My friend decided to stop using them and sold me her 12 BG 4.0s and 14 FB one-sizes for $130! </p> <p>She used them for 8 months and never stripped them. I wanted to do it before I started using them just so we can make a fresh start with them. What's your favorite way to strip your cloth? </p>
