About LolliDoo Diapers!

*Information from website*

LolliDoo™ diapers’ initial offering has been specially designed with EcoSpun® recycled performance fleece. EcoSpun® performance fleece is made from recycled PET bottles and is the most eco-friendly and baby-friendly fiber available. They added a small amount of natural rubber at the legs for a customize fit. LolliDoo® has eliminated the traditional cloth diaper PUL waterproof outer and rivals the chemical-laden disposables in keeping skin dry.

Their use of EcoSpun® recycled fabric yields many rewards for the Earth, as well as the consumer. By using recycled PET, they are not only keeping disposable diapers out landfills, they are also keeping at least 6 plastic water bottles (for each diaper manufactured) out of the same landfill. The recycling of PET saves millions of barrels of oil each year and reduces virgin resource consumption. Additionally, once created, LolliDoo™ Diapers save precious resources in that they thrive in cold - water washing. A fast-drying diaper is beneficial for baby's skin. The Ecospun® fabric wicks moisture away from the skin toward the breathable outer layer, where air circulates to dry any accumulating moisture. Our tests of extreme diapering conditions (toddlers and overnight use) show that despite large quantities of urine, baby's bottom is as dry as it was when the diaper was first put on. As mothers, we tend to like that.

Not only is their product green, but LolliDoo™ also conducts every aspect of the business with minimal environmental impact -- from the materials, to the manufacturing, to the final distribution. They have sought to source ALL manufacturing components domestically, in line with the "buy local" philosophy. And, to finish it all off nicely, they are developing a recycling program that allows consumers to return the diaper at the end of useful life, where they'll feed it into existing fiber recycling.

Our LolliDoo Eco-Pocket Experience!

I was so excited when I came across LolliDoo Diapers. They are completely different than any other cloth diaper out there. Made from BPA free recycled plastic bottles these one sized diapers are truly the "Greenest" way you can go with cloth diapering! When the diaper is at the end of it's life, LolliDoo has a recycle bin just for their diapers. Now how awesome is that?

We were sent the LolliDoo Eco-Pocket in black. The first thing I noticed about the Eco-Pocket is how super soft the material is on both the inside and outside of the diaper. The metal snaps on this diaper are another first for me with using cloth diapers. The metal snaps are more secure and sturdy than the plastic ones. The material is super strong and there is also reinforcement material to insure the metal snaps will not tear out.

The LolliDoo Eco-Pocket has an internal elastic leg casing adjustment to vary the size of the diaper for your baby's growth. I am becoming very fond of this method of sizing adjustment and I found the Eco-Pocket elastic very simple to adjust.

This diaper is a little more poofy looking than other one size diapers because the type and thickness of the material. However, I really love the fact that the material is very breathable. The LolliDoo Eco-Pocket fits Ethan well and we have not experienced any leaks. I also fell in love with how fast this diaper dries!

I'm extremely impressed with the LolliDoo Eco-Pocket diaper! I think LolliDoo has risen a whole new set of standards of what materials cloth diapers should be made out of to make them a Greener item.
