Default washing cloth diapers? - Chinese prefolds

In article , k3_e81

Have you ever tried vinegar in a Downy rinse ball? One site I read
suggesting doing that, then just throwing it in the wash so that you
don't have to try to catch the rinse cycle. I thought that was pretty
clever, but I wonder how well it really works.


It works fine. I don't do it anymore, though, because our washer has
an automatic rinse dispenser on it. It kind of depends on when I
remember. Sometimes I'll put it in the rinse dispenser, sometimes
I'll put it in the final rinse, which is a separate cycle, so you
can't miss it.

i still have many of the nappies after 8 years - after being used on bottoms
& for protecting against spit-up on shoulders & the other many & varied uses
you'll find for these wonderful objects, i've found the thickest brand i got
are still in good shape whereas the thinnest brand are frayed at the edges &
a bit too thin to be used as nappies on bottoms - so i'd recommend anyone to
buy a thick good-quality brand from the get-go.


The ones I have purchased from weebees appear to be very good quality
- "diaper service quality" is what they are called. I have washed
them three times and they puffed up nicely, and seem relatively thick.

they're good for years after
for wiping up big spills & millions of other things.

using a dryer wears fabric much faster.


Yeah, and unfortunately that's pretty much my only option most of the
time here in the Pacific Northwest (US). It rains about half the year
here.

Thanks to all who replied. We are adopting a baby so will report back
once I have my method in action.
