I think they claim to biodegrade faster too, but i read that all depends on landfill conditions anyway. It's a really complicated issue. I also read that they dye their diapers brown to appear more natural. That's fine, but for us it really made it hard to see if there was pee or not, so with that and the added cost, we just switched after a few months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-eco-friendly-diaper-do-you-use#post-323883 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 09:09:21 +0000 regberadaisy 323883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NYCaliMama: is that the only/main "eco friendly" aspect of the 7th gen diapers? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-eco-friendly-diaper-do-you-use#post-323879 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 09:07:01 +0000 SAHM0811 323879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used 7th Gen with my first DD for a few months. No leaks, but it was really hard for us to tell when she peed in them, even if we would open it up and look. DH didn't like that at all about them. It's a little annoying though how they market themselves as chlorine-free when most disposable diapers these days are chlorine-free anyway, but they still cost more.</p> <p>We used Earth's Best once and found them to be really stiff... Like @Yin they just didn't feel right. Perhaps we got them a size too small too, but I wasn't wow'ed by them so wasn't willing to buy again. </p> <p>We love Baby Naturecare by Naty (can get them on Amazon)... Great protection and fit for our baby. Not a huge price difference compared to other brands either.</p> <p>I was thinking of trying Tushies next because they are supposedly the only disposable out there without any gel in them. I don't think I would ever order from The Honest Company just because of the cost... $80/month... really? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-eco-friendly-diaper-do-you-use#post-323841 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 08:40:50 +0000 Mrs. Pen 323841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: I thought they were cheaper haha!! I guess not. Well I already ordered my first bundle. I might go back and forth maybe. I do love the prints on the honest diapers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-eco-friendly-diaper-do-you-use#post-323836 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 08:37:35 +0000 regberadaisy 323836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks! Interesting on the 7th generation. Will have to compare pricing then.</p> <p>@Coco Bee: any reason why you're switching to The Honest Company then? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-eco-friendly-diaper-do-you-use#post-323484 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 21:11:29 +0000 Mrs. Pen 323484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: I LOVE seventh gen!!! It's been amazing. It's only ever leaked ONCE. </p> <p>We also used Earth's best, that was his diaper for the first few weeks and loved those as well. They worked great.</p> <p>I have also tried and loved The Honest Company. I am getting another bundle soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-eco-friendly-diaper-do-you-use#post-323482 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 21:10:19 +0000 yin 323482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use 7th gen in addition to cloth. We tried Earth's Best and I didn't like the feel and fit on my LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-eco-friendly-diaper-do-you-use#post-323460 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 20:46:42 +0000 chopsuey 323460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use seventh gen<br /> No complaints!</p> <p>Also tried Earth's best. Liked them fine too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-eco-friendly-diaper-do-you-use#post-323457 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 20:44:25 +0000 regberadaisy 323457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We currently use Huggies and love it because it works great and I can get it relatively cheap! ~20cts/diaper</p> <p>But I wouldn't be opposed to trying a more Eco friendly option. I thought 7th gen was it and did not read any favorable reviews.</p> <p>Which Eco friendly diaper do you use and how do you like it? </p>
