 Happy with these pins Oct 20, 2011
By Michele
I'm giving these 5 stars....not because they're as good quality as the ones I used on my kids in the 80's, but because, as a grandma now in 2011, I was surprised to be able to buy any at ALL lol (most people who use cloth diapers now seem to use those very expensive "designer" nappies with velcro) and, with that in mind, they were better quality than I expected to find for a product I thought was obsolete.
True, the safety lock is not as good as the ones of long ago, but is better than a regular safety pin and seems to be good enough until my granddaughter is potty-trained.
Note about tip sharpness of these pins: I'm using homemade prefolds & birdsey diapers I made from my old flannel sheets, and that may be harder on the pins than the prefolds & birdseyes you buy....a couple of times the pins became difficult to push through (after many times of pushing through) but if the pin becomes dull or the tip gets bent, you can fix that by sharpening them on an emery board/nail file...i'd sharpen the pin, putting the tip on the file and running it downwards, turning the pin and filing more, checking visually by holding the pin in front of the t.v. and gently poking my finger on the sharp tip to know when it was sharp enough.

Great for swaddling May 14, 2011
By Nathan Beauchamp
"ConsumerAdvocate"
Our son (aka the escape artist) is really adept at getting loose from his swaddling at night. We've started using a single safety pin to secure the blanket, and that has worked wonders for keeping him snug, and consequently helping him sleep longer. These are fairly standard safety pins, and do their jobs very well. Other than the one that our cat chewed to pieces, they're all working as they should.
PROs:
1) Sharp!
2) Do what they're supposed to do
3) Help us get a few precious hours of additional sleep
CONs:
1) Not cat proof

 Not sharp enough Nov 05, 2011
By Bindu
I bought these pins to use with prefold diapers and have found them to be terrible.
First, they are too blunt and hence useless. I had to use force to just push them through two layers of a prefold diaper. That is not something you can work with, especially when diapering a wiggly baby.
Second, these are too big to use on even a two year old - so there is no way I can use them on an infant without them poking out.

These pins get the job done! Feb 10, 2011
By Linda Brown
Good bargain pricing for diaper pins that are functional and get the job done. The pins close easily and also open easily (when an adult desires to open them.) The pins are not quite as sharp as some vintage models of diaper pins, but these pins certainly are perfectly acceptable and easy to use when diapering your baby.

Good enough. Sep 30, 2011
By J. Wissinger
I thought, because they boast a "locking closure," these would have a little plastic top part that you could push down onto the needle, kind of like a pen cap, which would hold the needle in place. Instead they have a little groove that you maneuver the needle into, but if the needle is warped or aims slightly off, it can still slide or pop out. Thus the "safety cap" is not as secure as what I envisioned, but they're still quite functional and the price is good.
