Double gussets are often a prized feature in the cloth diaper world. Double gussets are an additional row of elastic at the leg of the diaper that offer an extra layer of protection to help contain messes. Sometimes the double gussets are internal and made of the same material as the lining of the diaper, while other double gussets use the same material as the outside or cover of the diaper and are finished the same way as the outside leg elastic.

ReplyDeleteTiny Tush diapers also have double leg gussets!
ReplyDeleteThe Organic Caboose One-Size Diaper and Cover In-One also has gussets. Just ordered it to try it out with my 4-week-old.
ReplyDeleteFunkyFluff have the double gussets too!
ReplyDeleteok I did not like the diapers with double gussets. It seemed as though my baby had too much between her little legs and less room to move when she moved. Those made it harder for her to crawl and walk with because of the excess bulk around her legs. I went back to the regular ones with only one gusset.
ReplyDeleteGlow Bug also has this feature.
ReplyDeleteJust Simply Baby also has this function on their cloth diapers. http://www.justsimplybaby.com/?Click=1858 (the link offers 10% refund to new customers. It shows up as a refund after they confirm you are indeed new). Love them!! =]
ReplyDeleteWhile it works for others, I find that double gusset irritate my son's behind. I can understand it, as there is some bulk in there. I also find it hard to clean , when the poops is messy, dirt goes in those little space where the extra gussets are . Personally I prefer a well fitted diaper for my baby without those extra gussets.
ReplyDeleteI realize this post is old but has anyone ever found a hybrid fitted with double gussets? Tia
ReplyDeleteWell it seems that “double gussets” is a positive feature of cloth diaper brands as per your words, but I am some obscure about the convenience of the baby while wearing it. I think baby may not feel comfortable under it. What do you say?
ReplyDeleteI personally do not like double gussets. My son cannot move around in them. They are the last diaper I use
ReplyDeleteIf you are buying for a newborn it seems the double gusset maybe beneficial. However if your baby is older than say 6-7 months the yes the double gusset would make it harder for an older baby who has mobility
ReplyDeleteMy baby did great with the Rumparooz newborn that has the double in it. I bought some of the bigger size for him to try and he is now 7 months and cruising like crazy, we found they work better than the Bum Genious I have, mainly because he has no chunk. He is all length and skinny, so its been hard for me to find diapers that fit him well and dont leak. I just did a bunch of looking online through Amazon to find double gussets, didnt know what it was called before the research, and bought a bunch to try. Glad I found this article to check out some other kinds.
