My grovias have made it through 3 children. I do use a combination of other cd but I have no complaints with grovia. I have had to toss a couple soakers in the past 41/2 years but not many! I second the sanitize cycle!!! Bad news!!

Please take into account that your diapers will be your most washed item of CLOTHING for the next 2 to 3 years. A quick analogy: think about a $9 t-shirt that you buy from Target (price equivalent to 1 GroVia Soaker) and wash EVERY day - first by a quick rinse-spin, then a heavy duty wash and another spin, then dryer. It won't last 8 months!
Please keep this in mind when purchasing modern cloth diapers. If you get more than 200 wash cycles, rejoice (GroVia has professionally tested their soakers to last at least 200 wash cycles). But PLEASE set the correct expectations from the get-go and you WILL NOT be disappointed.

Great Package - Poor Soaker Quality
June 10, 2013
Reviewer:

I purchased this package after great reviews from other moms who were on their second child with the same set of Gro-Via Hybrids. With plans to have a second child, I was all for spending a little bit more for the convenience and quality. Unfortunately, the quality was not there. With less than a year of use, over half of my 24 soakers have holes that are developing along the seams and the gussets. Elastic is coming out and irritating my poor little girl's skin. Gro-Via's response: sorry, but your warranty has expired. It's unfortunate customer service. I won't be making recommendations for anyone looking to use these diapers for more than one child.

I love these. They hold up well and keep everything contained. Get the liners!!! They save sooooo much time! The hook and loop are the most user friendly cloth diaper and these are trim, colorful, and functional. They even work well at night (hubby forgot to use nighttime diaper so this was a good test). I received some amazing advice from this company (Angela?) before I purchased and I've enjoyed the process. My husband thinks it's funny that cloth diapering has become my hobby!

GroVia AI2 Hybrid Wins!

...Between the GroVia AIO and AI2 hybrid, we prefer the A12 system with the hook and loop. Their system is super convenient, great quality, and looking forward to using them in daycare and as a working mom. My little guy looks great in them and they fit great, no big leak problems, only when they were new and not prepped well. Needed a few more washes. Very excited.
