Pros:durable, absorbent, low price
Cons:small snaps at waist
The All Together Deluxe Diaper (the ATD) is a type of all in one (AIO) diaper that includes the cotton diaper and a waterproof cover all in one unit. This diaper fastens at the waist with a row of small snaps, making the diaper very adjustable for the best fit for your child. It has elastic at the legs to help prevent leaks. It comes in 5 sizes: preemie (4 to 7 pounds); newborn (7 to 10 pounds); small (8 to 13 pounds; medium (13 to 18 pounds); large (18 to 25 pounds) and toddler (25+ pounds.
I first found the ATD diapers when my daughter was about 18 months and about 16 pounds. I bought a dozen large sized diapers and it was almost a year later that she out grew them. The part that amazes me on a diaper of this price range is that the diapers look great and will easily last through a second child. Many of the other cloth AIO diapers I have bought did not last through my daughter in the specified size, let alone be in a condition to last through a second child.
My husband is not as big of a fan of the ATD as I am, his complaint is that the row of small snaps at the waist make it difficult for him to fasten. I think that it has to do with finger size as I did not find this to be the case.
Somewhere around 22 months old, my daughter reached the physical developmental age where she was urinating less often and in greater quantity and at that time I had to add a diaper doubler to this diaper. While this added slightly to the expense, it allowed me to use that size diaper for a longer period of time.
This is a diaper that I will definitely use again for my second child, in fact I have 2 dozen ready to go when the baby is born and have persuaded my sister to also order some for the baby she is expecting.
While this opinion is to rate the diaper, I do want to add a small note on the customer service of the All Together Diaper Company's customer service. It is outstanding. The diapers were shipped quickly and arrived before expected. In addition one of the diapers was damaged in transport and a simple phone call resolved the issue and had a new diaper on the way to me that day. A very nice and easy company to deal with.
