I have complained numerous times over the years to them about this, I would always raise a stink with them when I noticed a change, when I was using a case a month of Teddy's I felt it was my right to.

Got my bag earlier this week, absolutely love them.

39

I always get an order status change notification email from bambino and a ups ship notification email from ups the day my order ships (which is almost always the same day I order), I order a case every 6 weeks or so.

I'm not even close to being in between a medium and large, they claim 31-42 on the medium, i'm a 34" waist, so i'm on the bottom end of their scale, yet the mediums are just to small for me, both horizontal and vertical (more vertical though). The larges the top tapes nearly touch each other on me, both leak way on me way more than the old mediums ever did (which was never). They could solve the issue easily enough by bringing a small into the lineup for people that are happy with the new fit, but i've seen enough people not happy with it that they really should bring back the old medium fitment. They are about to lose my business over it unfortunately. My last order through Bambino was molicares, but I can easily get those elsewhere, but I really want Teddy's and Classico's, but i'm not going to buy something that does not fit nor work for me.

I've already made that comment to Bambino with my last order, never got a response on that one. They could rename the current medium a small (I agree its not right for them to ignore this crowd, but now they are pretty much ignoring the crowd that loved the old mediums), and bring back the old medium (which was absolutely perfect for me), maybe make it a hair larger. The new mediums just don't work that well for me, they sit too low and I get more leaks out of the top (front and back), and the larges are ridiculous, with the top tapes nearly touching and sitting a couple inches above my belly button, and I got more leaks due to the poor fitment at bottom on the back of my legs. I've been flip flopping between the 2 sizes, but i'm seriously rethinking my next order, and that it won't be Bambino, I love them to death, but if it doesn't work, it doesn't work.

Tell me you wouldn't be pissed off if a tape popped off nearly every night on you, i'm glad some of you don't have issues and the new medium fits you great, but it doesn't change the fact of the matter is it that doesn't work for me. Its not the tapes popping off the landing strip, its them coming undone from the backside of the diaper, so thanks for playing but try again. There is no user error here, I don't use powders/lotions/oils, its not a contaminated surface unless its coming from bambino that way after the tapes are already installed on the backside. I have experimented with how I fasten them to try and alleviate the problem, its not like i'm going to have the same issue every night but keep doing the same thing, I have run a strip of 3m Transpore over top of the tapes to reinforce it (worked great on the first issue case, doesn't stick well to the new softer/slicker material) I have pretty much worn only bambinos for a number of years unless I run out between shipments. I've had cases with out a single one having an issue, and have had cases where nearly every single one is an issue. It has pretty much been a teddy issue, don't recall ever having a problem on the classicos.

They did on the last case I had an issue with, they definitely made it right with me, but I haven't got a response from the last email I sent just to give them a heads up that this case was having the same issue as before. I feel like why bother buying another case if it might have the same tape issue (nearly always the top left tape on this case, last case I had an issue with was 90% top right tape), seeing how it pretty much makes the diaper unwearable, short of getting up from bed and getting some tape to fix it, which is a pretty big inconvenience to me if I cant get back to sleep.

Anybody else that the mediums don't fit well anymore having more leaks than they use to? The old style, the only way I would get a leak is it was just completely saturated and leaked over the top of the front or back. Now it seems like they leak real bad around the leg gathers on the backside for me, i'd say every 3rd or 4th night at least I get at least a little bit of leakage, sometimes quite substantial. I also don't think the new ones wick as well as the old ones, if I was sleeping on my back they would wick up the backside, now they just pool up at the bottom, and they seem to clump up real bad for me too, I think the being wider is the main cause of that, as they seem to crease down the middle and clump up on both sides. If they are going to produce them in China, then they need to take the money they are saving and hire a couple people for Quality Control, I'm at 20 diapers that have had at least one tape come undone from the backside on the new Teddy's, with one bag left to go from this case. Last case, not a single issue, case before that, same problem, but closer to the entire case having the problem. Between the reoccurring tape issues and the new medium just not working for me (while a large completely envelopes me), i'm seriously rethinking my next order, and i've been wearing Bambinos nearly every night for over 2 years now.

I wish, but they told me 60-90 days last week on those 2 (which I've been wearing exclusively for nearly a year straight now), really wish they would get there inventory where it stayed in stock, you would think they would have this figured out by now, i'm rather annoyed about it at the moment.

weird... I've gone through 2 bags now of the new Teddy's with the old tapes so far and I haven't had a single one come loose or pop off on me yet. Matter of fact I haven't even noticed them sliding some like the classico's did sometimes. I do keep the lower tapes a bit looser to keep them from cutting into my legs, but I really crank down on the top ones since i'm so skinny, keeps them up on my hip bones. They are working out great for me. Compare that to the stretchy tapes where I had less than 5 make it through an entire night out of the whole case.
