We usually use Swaddlers but I bought a small pack just to see. I like that they have the wetness indicator and are soft but I feel like they don't contain the pee smell very well.

We loved up and up! Used them PT with cloth diapers and still use their overnights for my day potty trained kiddo.

I love them. I think they hold a lot more than the Swaddlers. They also run slightly larger. I haven't had any smell issues, but they aren't perfumed like Pampers.

That's all we use when we're not using our cloth. They're the best cheap diaper out there IMO.

They're the only diaper my kids have ever had an allergic reaction to, but I love their adorable Christmas designs!

They were ok for daytime, but didn't work well for overnight. I will buy them when they're a good deal (and use for day only) , but prefer Pampers BabyDry. I stopped using Swaddlers by around 4 or 5 months because they didn't do the job overnight.

Love them! I have two in Up and Up right now...size 4 & NB.

Yes! We normally use cloth, but we used Up & Up when we travelled. We never had an issue with smell, however we didn't start using them until LO was in size 3.

We love them! We used swaddlers in the beginning for the wetness indicator, but for older babies - they are the bomb.com!

The smell is what got to me too. I felt that they held up just as well as Pampers Swaddlers (which are my favorite), but I just couldn't handle the smell.

I didn't like them for young diapers, but I do really like the pull-ups!

LOVE them! I prefer (and miss using) cloth, but we like these a lot and I love that they aren't super expensive!

my older LO got a horrible, horrible rash from them. I feel like they don't wick moisture away as well as other brands.
I just got the up and up pullups to try and she had a horrific chemical-like burn on her lower back from the waistband! I took them back today..

I wanted to love them because I feel like everyone else does but they just didn't work for my LO. I think the cut of them just wasn't a good fit, and they gave my LO a little rash at the waistband.

Love them! We're in an Up and Up size 3 for daytime, and Pampers Swaddlers size 4 for overnight.
When he moves rooms at daycare next month, they will only change him every 2 hours (as opposed to the infant room which does diapers every hour)...I'm a little nervous about him getting diaper rash since I don't think Up and Up wicks away as well as Pampers do....

Love them! We use them when not in cloth and use Huggies overnights

I'm one of the few who hates them, they were so rough against my daughter's skin, I didn't even finish the package, I felt so bad. they also made her break out (but in their defense she ahs super sensitive skin.)

I like them. I don't live near Target, so I don't get them often, but my MIL will bring them to me now and then.

I hated them. They feel papery and they smell weird. Plus I felt like they always felt wet.

Love them! I love waiting to buy them when they are offering a $20 gift card deal when you buy 2 boxes. I don't use them at night. We stick with Pampers extra protection for overnight.

Love Up & Up as well! I actually started using them because I read they are more hypoallergenic than Pampers or even Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive. They are chlorine, latex, and perfume free which you don't find in any other diaper unless they are "green."

Once we got to the toddler stage, we really started experiencing the unattractive and leak inducing diaper sag. Pampers Cruisers fit marginally better so we have been using those but we still switch back and forth because Up & Up diapers are so much cheaper.

They were fine but tight in the waist for DD who is 2y 7 mths so we didn't stick with them.

I don't care for them. I found them to be rough and not as absorbent as pampers. DD got very red when we used them from the wetness irritation. I haven't tried them since they changed them though.

I really wanted to like them, but I found them to be a bit on the rougher side and they ended up giving DS a rash.
I always ended up going back to Pampers Swaddlers no matter what other diapers we tried. So that's what I stick with now.

@rattles: they are also the only diapers my oldest had a reaction to, it was right when they did some sort of revamp 1.5ish years ago. I loved them prior to that. I am considering trying them again for my youngest, but seeing your response makes me hesitate.
