Review:
I TRIED to do a video review, but the sound and the video weren't matching up well, and quite frankly, I didn't have the time to go back and do it again, SO you get a typed up review, which I hope is equally as stellar! (I will try my darnedest to do a video review next time, though!!)
Sizing/Rise:
OH MY GOODNESS!!! What a wonderful diaper! It has 4, not 3, FOUR different sizes, making it truly a OS diaper. I can totally see this fitting a newborn (Rump Arounds' website even claims a preemie can wear it!) all the way up to a 3 year old who is still in diapers! The weight range Rump Arounds says it will fit is 5-35 lbs (depending on the height/width of your child.) I can TOTALLY believe this to be true. Max is 21 months and a semi-lanky fellow. He has a littly belly, but not much. He wore he diaper on the "medium" setting (one snap from the top) and about halfway in on the snaps for the waist. it fit him snuggly, but he was not uncomfortable.

Fit/Trimness/Look:
I LOVE the fit of Rump Arounds diapers. So far, I've tried the
2 Snap Pocket Diaper and the C.D.L.C. They both fit about the same, which is absolutely amazingly! They are snug, without cutting into baby's back or legs. They do not leave red marks on baby's belly. With one insert in, the bulk between the legs is minimal and has never bothered Max in the slightest. He is super active, rough and (like most boys that are almost two) and has never behaved differently in a Rump Arounds cloth diaper compared to when he wears 'sposies. He actually seems to prefer the cloth diapers. (See the image in the slideshow below where he's examining the diaper? After he looked at it he said, "Good!" Ha!) Adding inserts in for nap/nighttime will make the diaper bulkier, but that is the case with all cloth diapers. There's no getting around it! Even with doubling the insert, though, the diaper doesn't gap from the waist and/or leg holes! (Using two microfiber inserts.)
Absorbency/Length of Wear:
Using the microfiber insert that was provided with this diaper, Max made it for 7 hours (I highly recommend changing your child more often than that!) with this diaper on, which included his nap (3 hours or so.) Max, as he's gotten older, has turned into a heavy wetter. In 'sposies, if I don't change him right before he goes down for nap, he wakes up soaked and often times soaks his sheets. If he goes to bed in anything but a night time 'sposie, he and his sheets are soaked. (Not trying to be gross, just making sure everyone understands how much of a heavy wetter he is!) In this diaper, he could have gone another couple of hours and still have been fine. The insert was only 3/4 "full" and the lining of diaper was dry! I would very easily put this diaper with two inserts on Max overnight and have all of the confidence that he and his sheets would be dry in the morning! Plus, with the double gussets, poop is MUCH better contained and HIGHLY unlikely to leak. (Max never pooped in this diaper during our trial period, but I have no doubt in my mind that the inner double gussets would have contained the poop no questions asked!
Recommendation:
I whole-heartedly give my 100% approval and recommendation for this product! 2 thumbs up! 5/5 stars! Gold medal. Stamp of approval! If you're looking for a premium cloth diaper that is cute, (c'mon! it says Rump on the butt!) high quality, fits well, budget-friendly, and kid-tested, mother-approved, I highly recommend the Rump-Arounds C.D.L.C. OS Pocket cloth diaper!
