Editorial Review:

Amazon.com Product Description:
A baby in disposable diapers puts an average of 6,000 diapers into the landfills by the time he or she is potty trained -- and those plastic-based diapers take about 500 years to decompose. What's an environmentally conscious parent to do? With gDiapers, you can have the convenience of disposable diapers and avoid doing damage to the planet. In fact, gDiapers even help the environment. Get started with this gDiapers Starter Kit which can be used on babies or toddler 26 to 36 pounds in weight.

gDiapers offer:
  • Flushable, decomposable diapers that offer an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional disposables
  • Breathable, non-plastic diapering system that keeps baby's skin healthier
  • Starter Kit that contains everything you need to begin using gDiapers
Flushable, Decomposable Diapers
The gDiaper consists of a machine-washable, reusable cotton "little g pant" and a snap-in, reusable waterproof liner, which contains the diaper refill. These refills are decomposable. Containing no plastic products, they're made from sustainably farmed wood fluff pulp, sodium polyacrylate (SAP), which provides absorbency, and cellulose rayon. And they can be flushed down the toilet, which has a couple of wonderful benefits. First, it eliminates the need to keep smelly diapers around in a diaper pail. Second, it keeps unnecessary waste out of the landfills. And finally, the entire contents of the diaper gets processed by sewage treatment plants, which return treated, completely sanitized solids to be converted into valuable fertilizer. It's recycling at its best!

If you're unable to flush the liners, they can still be thrown in the trash without guilt, since they will decompose in 50 to 150 days -- a much better turnaround than their plastic counterparts. And, if you're a gardener, you can simply throw the wet liners in your compost bin. (Note: for sanitary reasons, never put poopy diapers in the compost.)

As Easy As Traditional Disposables -- but Healthier
The "little g pant" itself sports an adorable style and trim silhouette, and it's available in several cool colors. With easy-to-use rear Velcro closures, the little g pant is just as easy to put on a baby as traditional disposable diapers -- no pins to deal with here. Plus, its breathable qualities help keep baby's skin healthier by minimizing diaper rash.

Get Started!
Everything you need to get started is included in the handy Starter Kit: two little g pants in trendy "Great Orange" and "Vanilla Bean" colors, suitable for boys or girls, each with two snap-in liners; 10 flushable diaper refills; a "swishstick" to aid with flushing; and a Handy User's Guide (H.U.G). The "Large" Starter Kit is for children 26 to 36 pounds in weight; small and medium sizes are available for babies and smaller children, so you can start with gDiapers in any stage of your child's pre-potty-training life.
Starter kits come in three sizes:
Tips for Successful gDiaper Use
Some plumbing systems may have problems with the flushable liners, including systems with tree-infested pipes; non-standard plumbing systems, including grinders or house traps; and septic tanks, which require close monitoring to make sure the outflow is clear. It is recommended that only poopy diapers be put into septic systems, and wet ones be composted.

But even if your plumbing system won't accept the gDiaper flushables, you can always simply throw them in the trash where they'll quickly decompose, making a much more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional disposable diapers.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - gDiapers are wonderful
I purchased a 4 pack of the inserts and we love this product. We are doing our part to help the environment and encourage others to do the same. If you are looking for a diaper that is a cross between a cloth diaper and a disposable...look no further. My daughter was getting diaper rashes each week with the disposable diapers. Since we have been using the gDiapers she has not had the first diaper rash. She loves them as much as we do.

gDiapers: Changing the world from the bottom up
Diapers, a hot button issue among eco-minded parents. Cloth? Disposables? How about a new, middle way: flushing baby's waste the same place as the rest of the family?

gDiapers are flushable inserts fit into adorable cotton g-pants. The inserts are absorbant and, with a practiced bit of tearing and swishing, flush down the toilet. Or the wet ones can be composted; they biodegrade completely in about a month! No diaper pail, no overflowing ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Maybe Even Less Hassle Than Disposables!
My wife and I use gDiapers for both our newborn and our one year old and we love them!

With cloth diapers you have to keep a bunch of poopy diapers around till you wash them, and with disposables, you have to keep a bin full of stinky diapers around until trash day.

The great thing about gDiapers is that you flush most of the gross mess away instantly and, at worst, you're left with a slightly soiled liner or cloth outer.

I was worried that the flushing would be a hassle ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Green, comfy and cute!
We switched from regular disposable diapers to gdiapers a few months ago and we love them. My daughter has very sensitive skin and used to get diaper rashes at the drop of a hat. No more. She used to stick her hands in the legs of her diapers all the time, but she stopped doing that once she started wearing gDiapers. She is so comfortable and cute in these diapers. We use cloth inserts at home and the flushies at daycare. Once I showed her caregivers how to put them on her properly they said it was actually easier ... Read More

gDiapers are great. i don't much like the new style gDiaper velcro. it's aplix but i don't like aplix.

otherwise, they're very soft, very nice. good for the environment and cute. i wish they did come in more colors.
