Fakename4me Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Has anyone tried or does anyone use Snappis to hold their cloth diapers on? Just curious on the results. Diaper pins are slowly ruining my cloth diapers and I was looking for an alternative to pins.... Scott Link to comment
freswith Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Quite effective, but hardly strong enough. I use them in addition to pins, and the are very good at stopping diaper sag, but I wouldn't trust them on their own. Link to comment
AutieAB Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Make sure you get the larger size. I've got one for my cloth diapers and I use it from time to time. It's easier to apply than pins and I've not had one open up on me yet but I don't use it frequently so... Also, if the appeal is that they're not as sharp/pointy as pins, think again. Under those end parts are some seriously pointy plastic spikes that you can accidentally cut yourself on (I know, I've done it!) Link to comment

I just want my diapers to last a bit longer and I am interested in the fact that the Snappis should constantly apply pressure (pull towards the center?) since they are elastic like. I guess I will have to buy some and find out... I have been looking at yard sales and flea markets for used ones for some time without finding any... Link to comment
Halsey Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Use the size 2 toddler they are effective for snugging up the diaper for a great fit Link to comment
AutieAB Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I just want my diapers to last a bit longer I'm not sure they'll help with that either. They make larger 'pinholes' in the diaper than pins do... The diaper seems to recover as normal though. Link to comment
dljim95 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 They are all I been using on my 24/7 cloth diapers for the past year since I found out about them. I will never use a diaper pin again has long as I can still get Snappi's. I can change my wet diaper to a clean dry one in less then a minute and I know it will not sag when it starts to get wet.
