The only thing I didn't like is that sometimes the gel crystals get onto baby's bottom. They also have a distinctly 'chemical' smell about them which is probably due to the dyes and bleaching of the wood pulp used in the nappies. | | Other Mums say... | JC from Adelaide says: "Definitely Value-for-money! Fun prints on the nappy, extremely absorbent (3 layer design), highly breathable, designed for comfort, clinically proven to help prevent nappy rash. We have tried many other less expensive brands, that claim to be as absorbent, but our children would always wake up soaked in urine and with the most terrible nappy rash! Carla, from WA says: "When they are full-priced I don't think they're value-for-money. I only buy them when they're on special. I like Huggies as I trust the brand and have been using them since my daughter was born. The only concern for me is the price. If they're too expensive, I buy a cheaper brand." Kate from VIC says..."I think that the Huggies nappies are excellent value for money. They seem to provide good leak protection without causing skin irritation as I found the Snugglers do. Although they are the more expensive of the disposables I find I need to change them less often making them better value for money than some other brands which may cost less but need changing more often. They fit to the baby's body nicely as well. Overall the best so far." Sally P, from SA says..."I feel they are slightly over-priced but continue to pay because I'm yet to find a nappy of similar quality." | | Where to Buy | Major Supermarket Retailers | | Review this brand |
