I love the brown, vanilla, and green. My favorite feature besides less environmental waste is the velcro closure around the back. I can't wait to give them a try when our newest addition arrives in a few weeks!

The "Got Chocolate Brown" are very cute.

Nice contest!

I love the Golden Orange and the Global Blue. When I checked these out a local shop I thought, "Ah ha! A solution!" I just love the idea of "no garbage, and no guilt"

I ahve always wanted to try these, they seem very interesting

patsmandy at yahoo dot com

By Blogger Amanda, at 3/05/2008 6:17 AM  

These are just the greatest diapers. I've really been wanting to try them on my 4 month old. I like the idea of half disposable/biodegradable, half cloth. I couldn't see switching to 100% cloth, but I really can't stand more diaper landfill. I like the velcro in the back feature - great to keep your babe from pulling off the diaper. All of the colors are fun too. I'm especially fond of golden orange, goodwill green and vanilla bean.

Thanks for considering!

The goodwill green is cool. I just love that they have come up with an economical and environmentally friendly option!

By Blogger Bebemiqui, at 3/05/2008 6:48 AM  

I totally love the orange and cream. The blue is nice, too, and so is the brown. I am registered for this kit but I would LOVE to win it!

By Blogger Keri, at 3/05/2008 6:49 AM  

I like the more stretch in the waist and leg feature. You can get a good fit on any size baby.

All of the colors are wonderful. I like Garden Lavender, golden orange, genuine Vanilla Bean, and got chocolate brown.

lacelk at sbcglobal dot net

By Blogger lace, at 3/05/2008 6:51 AM  

I love the chocolate and the orange. I live in an apartment with a coin-operated washing machine. Cloth diapers aren't an option, but I'd like to use a diaper that's more environmentally friendly than disposables, and these seem perfect! I've only heard rave reviews from other moms.

By Blogger salty c, at 3/05/2008 7:27 AM  

Oh my gosh, I LOVE these!! I wish they had been around from my first baby. I love, love, love the environmental component and the flushability of these. So convenient, esp. on the go! My favorite colors are the chocolate, orange and vanilla. Thank you!

By Blogger Smellyann, at 3/05/2008 7:39 AM

Golden Orange is my fave and I love that they are less wasteful than a sposie, but a little easier than a normal cloth dipe. yay.

I have been wanting something for my kiddos to wear at night! Cloth doesn't hold much for us, and we hate using disposables because they don't compost. I really hope I win these - thanks for the awesome giveaway, as usual!

As for color, I like them all, especially the chocolate brown and the lavender.

I love that they're not bulky like most cloth diapers are. I also love that they're a greener option than standard disposables.

My fave colors are brown, orange and vanilla!

the elastic in the back- no garbage- completely compostable!! Yay- it horrifies me how much we generate with one in diapers- as we expect another- UGH- thats a lot of trash! jbubolz-miller@hotmail.com Jenny M

By Blogger jbubolz-miller, at 3/05/2008 9:22 AM  

The new lavender color is nice. I do like the fact that you can choose to compost or toss the liner, for those of us who are not sure we could make it to the toilet to flush it every time.

Love the garden lavender and the flushability!

By Blogger Brooke, at 3/05/2008 11:42 AM  

It's so great that it's compostable. The Goodwill Green would be our choice - nice and gender-neutral. :)

The Orange, Chocolate and Green are great colors!

We've been using gDiapers for a few months and LOVE them. I like that I can compost the wet flushables. The color we like best is vanilla bean but I haven't bought any lavender yet.

It's nearly time for my daughter to move up a size so I'll be needing some more....

By Blogger Kim, at 3/05/2008 1:17 PM  

These are awesome!!! I love that they protect the environment but they aren't a burden on tired new moms!! Love the lavender and orange.

By Blogger Jules, at 3/05/2008 1:18 PM  

Love the Goodwill green and Chocolate brown (better to hide stains!! yuk).
I also love that the inserts are flushable and the wet ones can be composted.

By Blogger Kathleen, at 3/05/2008 1:25 PM  

Are you kidding me!! I LOVE THESE! Of course my favorite feature is that they are easy to use without filling up our landfills! carter.katelyn(at)gmail.com

By Blogger Miscellany Mom, at 3/05/2008 1:53 PM  

I love how gDiapers has updated their design. I used the old ones and I loved them. I have yet to try composting th wet ones, I love all the colors!!

By Blogger Kanga Ranga, at 3/05/2008 2:15 PM  

I love the innovative concept of these diapers. Truly a life changing product for everyone on the planet. I am about to have my third child and can't wait to try these diapers out. There were no alternative diaper options other than the pesky cloth diaper 6 years ago when I had my first child. I love the goodwill green.

By Blogger Barbara, at 3/05/2008 3:37 PM  

With twins on the way to join my 3 year old tot, I am really looking for ways to not load up our landfills with traditional diapers, but I also need something manageable since my hands will be FULL!. Gdiapers are perfect and the orange color is so mod!

Hmm, there are some really pretty shades. I like Genuine Vanilla the best though, because it's unisex, which equals hand-me-downs--which equals environmentally-friendliness, of course. I love how good these are for the environment. I was talking to my mom the other day about possibly using cloth diapers to be a little more eco-friendly, but this sounds like a more practical option.

By Blogger Kait, at 3/05/2008 8:12 PM  

I'm REALLY hoping to use this with my baby on the way. We use Seventh Gen. now but these g-diapers look awesome. I'm loving the chocolate or vanilla bean ones!

Hi, again! Great posts! The more we can do to encourage and remind each other about doing our part for our world, the better we can all work together!
I hope I'm not bugging you, but I'd love to include your comment to the retiring Google Blogger employee about how blogging helped you through cancer, but I want to be sure I'm understanding you. Would you like to contribute it? And if so, would you like to edit it at all first (heading, closer, etc.)? Thanks so much!

I like that these are good for the enviromant, you can flush those or compost those.

By Blogger Hedi, at 3/06/2008 10:18 AM  

I love all their colors, especially global blue and chocolate brown since I have a baby boy. I've been looking for something like this for awhile - much more earth friendly than disposables without the extra hassle of cloth diapering. I'm so glad someone finally came up with this!

By Blogger K.T., at 3/06/2008 2:39 PM  

So psyched that they are compostable. My plants will be happy! The orange is so nice and sunshiney!

By Blogger art-sweet, at 3/06/2008 5:09 PM  

Love your chocolate brown. Thanks.

By Blogger Uniquely Yours, at 3/06/2008 7:46 PM  

This looks like a great solution. The FAQ section on toilets was interesting!! Ok, I like the brown, green and vanilla (the orange lettering is great!). Baby number two is coming in 8 weeks so this would be good timing!

By Blogger Deb, at 3/07/2008 5:16 AM  

The colors are just so peaceful. I like that there's a compromise between disposable and reusable. It's definitely something I'd like to use. The "goodwill green" is my favorite.

i love that the tiny gel capsules will never
rupture in an over-saturated nappy again! the back closure is ingenious! it is nicer than having to wash those ookies in your machine and Oh the stick! All the colors are great.

By Blogger elisa, at 3/07/2008 6:25 AM  

I love that they are the perfect solution for meshing disposable with cloth. There are times when a plain cloth diaper just won't do! I refuse to buy disposables, but I would buy these for sure. Bonus: the overcloths are just darn cute.

By Blogger bmommy1, at 3/07/2008 11:12 AM  

This is a fantastic alternative to the conventional diapers! I love all the colors and I do have a compost in the yard, so it would work beautifully! Thanks for the opportunity to win:)

By Blogger orange you lucky!, at 3/07/2008 1:43 PM  

Sounds like a perfect option for moms like me who want to be more environmentally friendly, but don't quite have the courage to go cloth.

I like goodwill green.

By Blogger Mandy, at 3/07/2008 4:53 PM  

I have been looking into these for my son. We do cloth now, and I would love to flush. So that is my fav feature. Plus I just love the bright green colors. sevenarches.blogspot.com

By Blogger Rebecca R., at 3/08/2008 9:14 PM  

My favorite feature is that they are biodegradable and you can compost the wet ones! Keeping disposables out of the landfill and without the hassle of cloth diapers should be a model for the feature of diapers. I like the chocolate brown and orange colors. meganberka@gmail.com

By Blogger megan, at 3/08/2008 11:04 PM  

I love that they are a great compromise between cloth and disposable. My husband and I have definitely decided to go with gDiapers for our baby due any minute, so a free starter kit would be great. I plan on reviewing them on my blog, also. Oh, my favorite color is the chocolate brown - with summer coming who needs to worry about buying organic clothing with these cute little things on your kid's bum!

By Blogger Gray Matters, at 3/08/2008 11:20 PM  

I love that you can throw the poop away without having to deal with washing it out! I also love that you can flush these so it is much more sanitary as well.

My favorite colors are the gender neutral ones. :)

By Blogger uhhleksuh, at 3/09/2008 9:21 AM  

Goodwill green, global blue...gotta love those names! The best feature is (starting from day one with a new baby) the biodegradable part and just the knowledge that one is doing SOMETHING to curb the landfill issues! Thanks for the contest and thanks to gdiapers for addressing the need for options to disposable diapers!
