Cheaper Nappies = Poorer Quality?

Or are we just victims/slaves to the name? Are low cost nappies just as effective as popular and more expensive brand names? I recently stopped using Huggies nappies, now I use Snugglers which are substantially cheaper but I actually find them to be more effective and of a higher quality than the more expensive and popular brand. What brand do you use, or have you used and would you reccommend them?

I used to use huggies, I didn't like the higher priced pampers. The pampers where bulky and the huggies were thinner, but still held lots of "stuff". I did try the store brand once, but they were leakers. Makes too much laundry, gets on the couch, carpet, in the car............didn't like leakers.

Yeah, leakers are nasty, lol. I found huggies leaked more for me than the snugglers do, maybe it has to do with the size of your child, perhaps for every child a different brand of nappies is best suited?!

Hi! I used White Cloud brand. They are still a brand name but are much cheaper than the other brands. I really liked them. We had very few leaking problems with them and they saved us a lot of money. I would definitely recommend White Cloud diapers.
