Love our Flips. The tabs are stretchy and we get a really trim fit with prefolds.

I love my flips but have found another favorite with the capris

I LOVE my Flips and Thirsties as well! I've never tried Capris (they jist aren't in our price range) but I have friends that swear by them as well!

I got one in a trade and haven't been able to find another or bring myself to buy one new lol

Flips! I never trifolded until i got my flips. Now I rarely ever snappi or pin. I love the fit, the stretchy tabs, how nicely it holds the prefold in place, and functionally I find flips with trifolded prefolds to be bullet proof for us.

Imse Vimse. They have been my go to for 13 years now for trifolding when my kids were under 1. I love them for trifolding & they even have a wool wrap option that you can use to trifold with.

Flips are another great option. If you can find them, my other favorite are Weehuggers. They have more secure flaps to hold the prefold in place and super cute prints. I found when my son became a wiggly toddler, the Flips didn't have a way to secure the prefold & the cover went 1 way while the prefold went another. Weehuggers may require some hunting down but they are totally worth it. They were sold in a 2 size system.

I did really like the Econobum covers but ds outgrew them at 12 months (he also outgrew the Thirsties Duo size 2 covers at 12 months, plus the velcro irritated his skin).

We use The Fancy Pansy covers around here when we aren't doing longies...LOVE THEM! I have the OS covers for my daughter...she's 18 months, and has been wearing them since she was a couple weeks old...ALWAYS a fabulous fit!

I actually asked for a custom order of XL OS covers, for my chunky son that is 3, and still nighttime PLing...they are fantastic too!!! Such adorable prints, and a great fit!

Can't recommend her enough

We love trifolding! And then my son developed an allergy to exposed PUL, so we had to get rid of all of our beloved covers. We switched to AppleCheeks (use them as an AI2) and we are in love with them. I have some AMP OS on their way to me, and I think I will love them as well. They both have super soft inner, no exposed PUL touching my sensitive guy, easy to use, soft leg elastic while still provided great protection.
