Amazon.com Product Description
A baby in disposable diapers puts an average of 6,000 diapers into the landfills by the time he or she is potty trained -- and those plastic-based diapers take about 500 years to decompose. What's an environmentally conscious parent to do? With gDiapers, you can have the convenience of disposable diapers and avoid doing damage to the planet. In fact, gDiapers even help the environment. Get started with this gDiapers Starter Kit which can be used on babies or toddler 26 to 36 pounds in weight.  | gDiapers offer: - Flushable, decomposable diapers that offer an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional disposables
- Breathable, non-plastic diapering system that keeps baby's skin healthier
- Starter Kit that contains everything you need to begin using gDiapers
|  | |  |  Flushable, Decomposable Diapers
The gDiaper consists of a machine-washable, reusable cotton "little g pant" and a snap-in, reusable waterproof liner, which contains the diaper refill. These refills are decomposable. Containing no plastic products, they're made from sustainably farmed wood fluff pulp, sodium polyacrylate (SAP), which provides absorbency, and cellulose rayon. And they can be flushed down the toilet, which has a couple of wonderful benefits. First, it eliminates the need to keep smelly diapers around in a diaper pail. Second, it keeps unnecessary waste out of the landfills. And finally, the entire contents of the diaper gets processed by sewage treatment plants, which return treated, completely sanitized solids to be converted into valuable fertilizer. It's recycling at its best! If you're unable to flush the liners, they can still be thrown in the trash without guilt, since they will decompose in 50 to 150 days -- a much better turnaround than their plastic counterparts. And, if you're a gardener, you can simply throw the wet liners in your compost bin. (Note: for sanitary reasons, never put poopy diapers in the compost.) As Easy As Traditional Disposables -- but Healthier
The "little g pant" itself sports an adorable style and trim silhouette, and it's available in several cool colors. With easy-to-use rear Velcro closures, the little g pant is just as easy to put on a baby as traditional disposable diapers -- no pins to deal with here. Plus, its breathable qualities help keep baby's skin healthier by minimizing diaper rash. Get Started!
Everything you need to get started is included in the handy Starter Kit: two little g pants in trendy "Great Orange" and "Vanilla Bean" colors, suitable for boys or girls, each with two snap-in liners; 10 flushable diaper refills; a "swishstick" to aid with flushing; and a Handy User's Guide (H.U.G). The "Large" Starter Kit is for children 26 to 36 pounds in weight; small and medium sizes are available for babies and smaller children, so you can start with gDiapers in any stage of your child's pre-potty-training life.  | Starter kits come in three sizes: |  |  |  |
Tips for Successful gDiaper Use
Some plumbing systems may have problems with the flushable liners, including systems with tree-infested pipes; non-standard plumbing systems, including grinders or house traps; and septic tanks, which require close monitoring to make sure the outflow is clear. It is recommended that only poopy diapers be put into septic systems, and wet ones be composted. But even if your plumbing system won't accept the gDiaper flushables, you can always simply throw them in the trash where they'll quickly decompose, making a much more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional disposable diapers. | Stock up on flushable diaper refills: |  |

 Love gDiapers! March 13, 2010
bluegrassgrl (South Windsor, CT)
I've been using these since my baby turned 3 months old in Fall 2008. She started in medium gDiapers, and eventually moved into large. I've always flushed the poopy ones, and thankfully, haven't had any issues with my toilet (on city sewer). In the warmer months, I compost the non-poopy ones.
Yes, it's true that the gDiaper snap-in liner often gets dirty unless it's a really solid poop, but it washes off easily enough. I just invested in some of the gCloth refills to use on days that we're not out and about so much, but I still find the disposable refills convenient for when we are on the move.
I feel so good about not throwing hundreds of diapers into landfills, not to mention that I'm not enclosing my baby's bum in all kinds of chemicals and plastic. I really think that my baby has experienced less diaper rash since these are so breathable. I have another baby on the way, and he/she will definitely be a gBaby too.
Another gDiaper success story: A fellow mom was using plastic disposables (boo) and was complaining that overnight, her son would pee so much that the diaper often exploded and all the gel stuff would seep all the way into the footies of his pjs. So, I mentioned that I've never had that issue with gDiapers overnight up to 12 hours (I usually use 1 1/2 liners at night). She went out and bought a starter kit the next day, and was happy to report that there are no more explosions! If only I could convince her to use them all day too!
Pretty good diapers March 13, 2010

I got these and used them on my daughter from 2 weeks to about 3 1/2 months old. They worked pretty well and were super cute! I also used them as covers with my cloth prefolds. However, since I used a cloth insert, I found it easier to just use all cloth. The snap-in liners were just annoying to have to wash separately rather than throw in the wash with the cloth insert and cover. I liked to have them to use the disposable insert to throw away when we were out, but at home I'd rather just use all cloth. It's much easier. Also, we never flushed the inserts because they are so big. My husband has worked with plumbing and said you shouldn't flush something like that! Unless you are on city sewage (we aren't) then maybe. To mothers who want to try cloth diapering, I would recommend all cloth, prefolds and covers. It's much easier than you think and you can throw it all in one place when they are dirty. Not to mention much cheaper than gdiapers or disposables!
Nice hyrid for us. March 5, 2010

We love our gdiapers! They fit our kiddos better than several other types of cloth diapers and are SO cute! We use them with both cloth inserts and with the disposable inserts: the disposable inserts are less bulky and more absorbent for us. The liners definitely do get dirty w/ poo (but hey, it's poo...what else would you expect?) but our covers only rarely do (again, though, it's poo - I'm okay w/ washing it).
Interestingly, after reading some reviews, g's contain my son's blow-outs...disposables do not! With disposables, it's an entire outfit change.
Yes, they're expensive but at least they don't have plastic & you can flush them and/or compost them.
gDiapers ,Good, but hard to get used to February 23, 2010
A. Hall (Ware,Ma USA)
My baby wore the diapers with disposable liners without a huge problem. Now after a few weeks She is getting a terrible rash all over her behind. I'm assuming it's the inserts because when I switched back to disposable conventional diapers it cleared up considerably in a day and a half. Before going back to disposable I tried everything to clear it up. SO after that I thought that maybe she was ready to go back to the gDiaper for a second try and within a day she got the rash again. Also, the baby has never had a history of bad rashes before and I DIDN'T switch to cloth/natural diapers because of a rash problem. I think MAYBE it was the liner irritating the thighs and maybe it traveled all around her butt area! I can't figure out how the disposable liners would do worse than bleached non-biodegradable liners, to have caused the rash without irritation! I am willing to give it another go and get cloth inserts or even prefolds from gerber! I hope for the best because I really love the idea of the diapers. I didn't have a big problem before with them besides a few leaks, as it is difficult to get a hang of putting them on the baby right.
 LIsting misleading. February 6, 2010

I was a little disappointed to find that this item did not include the flush-able refills as advertised. You have to buy them separate.
