Kissaluvs -vs- Heiny Huggers

[cesie]

Has anyone tried both the Kissaluvs AND the new Heiny Huggers? I'm needing the size 2 KL's and have been looking at all my fav sites for sales when I found the Heiny Huggers. These 'look' comparable, but thought I'd ask for others' before I took a new leap. I very much like how the KL's fit my DD and I can always stuff a Super Soaker in to hold her over a nap.

So, any suggestions??

Thanks!

PS- Anyone else think they need a smiley changing a dipe!?!?!?

I have both and find them to be very comparable. The sizing is supposedly different-HH are supposed to go to 35lbs in their larges but in truth the fit is identical on my chunky thighed, skinny tummy daughter. I use both on the same snap fittings, and there is lots of growing room in both. I think that ultimately the KL2s will have a little more than the HH because the wings are a wee bit longer, but it's less than a cm or so and really is not significant.

I wrote to HH about their sizing because I wanted XLs and they said to try them anyway as they are very generous. The big difference is absorbency-HH seems to be more so and they consequently take longer to dry.

The Happy Heinys have one more layer of absorbancy, so they do take a bit longer to dry. They don't have the fun colors, though.

Hi, I am now looking at these, can someone tell me what the sherpa is like? Is this going to look and feel like the kissaluvs? or is it completely different? I have no idea what sherpa feels like? I like that I can wipe baby's bum with the Kissaluvs and the fabric has a little bite, like a washcloth, ya know? Is this what the sherpa is like?

thanks
