Super dry kids

[Diaperdante]

So I ordered a box of 20 SDK and I just wanted to know what your guy's thoughts on them are? I usually don't buy more than 2 if I haven't tried a new diaper yet but I was running low on stock and I really needed a bulky diaper that would go along with my new onesie. So what I really want to know is whether they are bulky and decent in absorbency.

Nope and nope.

Neither. They're more for show than performance.

That said, they're actually pretty damn good when using a diaper doubler. I suggest Total Dry Boost-Ups. Always works a charm for me.

I tired them and love them. They are a little bulky but if you really want it to be bulky, use a booster pad, goodnite, or something. It's really noticeable when you pull your pants over it

[Diaperdante]

Dang, I guess I'll have to deal with it then. Hopefully they're better than the tena stretch because after couple of wettings, they ended up leaking on me.

I think they're fine. I do use a tranquility booster though, unless I'm in a Changing mood...then they rock!

When I tried them, they leaked eventually. They didn't seem to hold a lot. But I have found ABU Sissy diapers to be good because they last me a while.

I use them as a daily diaper they are same absorbancy as the cushies and sissies I usually use 4 diapers in a 24 hr period and I drink tons of soda. I love them.

Thanks guys for your help, they arrive tomorrow so I'll try and give some feed back on them. I just hope they're better than the tena stretch I had because after two wettings and a morning wetting, those bad boys leaked all over my bed and new onesie

I wonder why I have had a better experience with the Sissy ones than with Super Dry Kids and the Cushies?

If you're looking for a good diaper that is bulky but not too expensive then I'd recommend Abena X-plus or Molicare Supers. They are definitely bulky and will probably hold 3 or 4 times as much as a SDK will, and are way less likely to leak. This means each diaper will last 3-4 times as long- effectively reducing their cost by 3-4 times for them to last the same amount of time. It's simple economics really.

I think it's funny when someone says "SDK are thick". Compared to what? Sheets of toilet paper! I liked mine when I had them, since I'm a 90's pampers kinda person but my couch was wet on the first wetting. I found that I had to be in an exact position not to leak. Iffy Pampers were this bad (which I doubt) I feel bad for the parents that used them. I think SDKs were a good start point but they really should try to improve some weak areas.

So after testing the super dry kids out I would have to say I'm pretty impressed. I've went through three of them and only one leaked after some pretty good size wettings. Way better then what I was using before them so I guess I got my moneys worth, only problem I have is its really hard to get them snug on but once I do they stay on. I also love how they sag after being soaked. Really happy I got them :-)

Glad to hear. If the diapers make you happy, that's what really matters. And I haven't found them to be THAT bad like people here have made them out to be. While they are no Abena or Bambino, they're better than a lot of the cr*p out there.

I haven't tried the Sissy ones, but IMHO the Cushies seem to hold a bit more than the SDKs. I made a post about this elsewhere, but basically-- I've worn both in a Large size, and the fit of a SDK always feels a bit tighter than a Cushie. And the tighter a diaper is, the more likely it is to "wring out" when you move around, like a wet towel being twisted. So even though the absorbancy of a SDK and a Cushie may be the same, the tighter fit of a SDK makes it leak a little sooner....
