Look great on Aug 29, 2011
By A. Galindo
"SMILE"
I really like these diapers, I have 3, this is the first one I bought to try them out- adorable patterns, the owls are even more cute than they look in the pic. These are great to wear with a plain tee, they can make an outfit alone. They're really absorbent (I never use the second soaker) and the fabric is very smooth and soft. The hip bands are very nice and stretchy, and this is the most TRIM cloth diaper I've encountered, about the same as a disposable as far as I can tell. They're easy to wash and once you get the hang of it putting them on is quick too, great if you have a squirmy crawler.
BUT: They take forever to dry- I dry all my diapers on high for 50 min (mostly TotsBots and Tiny Tush Elite)and these are the only ones that always need to be hung up to dry the rest of the way.
The elastic has relaxed considerably over 9 mos- I'm guessing from the drying, even though they are often hung up.
They ride low- I have some really cute pics of my son flashing crack in these. His thighs are pretty chunky so maybe that's why but he's a pretty average size kid these days so I wouldn't think it's him.
They are very narrow in the crotch- I'm not sure which is more annoying, too wide or too narrow. It kinda makes the elastic dig into his inner thigh area on the newer ones that still have tight elastic. The relaxed elastic probably makes them more comfortable.
The elastic is bulky- inner thighs and back of the waist always has a big imprint from the elastic when I take them off.
When they're wet they feel WET- one pee and your soaked.
You have to be careful snapping the bottom snap or you can pinch their thighs.
Although Ive had no problems with leaking- and we dont use the second snap in soaker-I wouldn't recommend them for sleep because of how wet they feel.
I can't comment on the ability to hold in poo, we're doing Elimination Communication and he doesn't usually poop in a diaper and never enough to "blow out"- I strongly reccomend ECing for everyone, especially cloth diapering parents. I don't have to rinse poo out of my diapers, need I say more?
Overall, I prefer Totsbots / Tiny Tush for comfort and durability but these are the most stylish and easy to get on a squirmer.
Update: This is the first diaper that we are retiring because of wear. After about 1 year the fabric covering the leg elastic is tearing and falling apart. Still looks nice on the outside though.

My Favorite Cloth Diaper!! Feb 14, 2011
By Jenna I own many types and brands of cloth diapers and these are my absolute favorite. They are ridiculously soft and adorably cute. One of my favorite features of this diaper is that they are SUPER trim. Most cloth diapers are bulky under clothing, but even with the snap-in doubler these look great under my 4mo old's cloths. Also, we have a heavy wetter and this is my go-to diaper for long naps. Finally, they are very dad/grandma/newbie friendly because everything is built into the diaper. No stuffing required! I can't say enough good things about the Grovia-All-In Ones and I recommend them to all my friends who are looking to try cloth diapers.

I adore it! Feb 10, 2011
By Sarah T. Why has no one reviewed these yet? I am new to cloth diapers, so I bought some of everything to see what I like- prefolds, different brand covers, and several all-in-ones. The Grovia was amazing! The cotton inside is soft and super absorbant, the outside feels silky-smoth, and the best part is my son, who is a heavy wetter, wore it for several hours with no leaks!! And they somehow manage to be extremely absorbant without adding bulk. It is as thin as a disposable. I am definitely getting more of these- just wish they'd come out with more colors.

DO NOT BUY product doesn't last and horrible customer service Aug 28, 2011
By honestly Deeply disappointed in this product. I would never recommend it to a friend and will never buy a grovia product again.
I bought these diapers about 7 months ago and they started breaking apart about 2 months ago. I contacted customer service and sent some pictures that show the major tears (I will upload some here). They said I need to send my diapers for review which I did. When they received the diapers I got an email saying that they reviewed the diapers and that it's MY fault they are breaking apart (not in these exact words but pretty close)!!! After a good number of back and forth emails in which they accuse me of using brighteners/bleach because my diapers looked clean!! I got an email from the CEO saying they will be sending the diapers back and will not replace or repair them again because it's obviously my fault.
I do not appreciate being called a liar. I have followed the product care instructions to insure that they last through my first child. I explained that I was using Tiny Bubbles (which is their brand of detergent) and also used the grovia disposable liners which could explain why my diapers are clean (because the poop doesn't touch the diaper!!). I couldn't believe how email after email they would find something to blame on me (first it's how clean the diapers looked so I must be using brighenters, then it's my stash size because I didn't have enough, on and on). They repeatedly claim to stand by their product but they obviously don't. If you have issues they will tell you that you didn't follow the care instructions and return your diapers with no repair or exchange. For how expensive these diapers are you are better off going with another company that would really stand by their product. My diapers didn't come close to lasting through 1 year!
In short, I picked these diapers because of their design and the fact that they're organic cotton. If you decide to purchase this product know full well that they won't last and if you have any issues their customer service will point the finger back at you and tell you that it's your fault the product didn't hold up!

Super cute & no leaks but takes too long to dry. Aug 15, 2011
By NatalieMH I bought this diaper cause of the super cuteness! I love it! No leaks! My only complaint is that it takes forever for this diaper to dry! I generally line dry mine and this takes days to dry. I have been putting this one in the dryer and then letting it line dry for a day after cause the thing is still damp. Cute and I like it- but I will probably not purchase another.
