So i may have asked this in amoungst another thread but i cant be bothered hunting them out so il ask again...
For those of you using itti bitti delish - do you prefer the sewn in or snaps and why??? Im getting the trial pack so i can try for myself but i want to hear other opinions too  (as soon as the MI lady gets back i will also be ordering a 6pack and dont know if i want 3 of each or 6 of one...)
TIA |

i only have the sewn in and i love it and am not considering getting a snap in at all.
i have the bitti boo - fitted - and that has the snaps tho and i hate having to always find the bits cause i dont wash it snapped. ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

I prefer the sewn-in, but the snap in are great if you want to get more for your $$ (buy 1 extra insert per nap) -------------

I only have the snap in and I love them. At first I thought they were a bit fiddly but now I don't find them any more fiddly than matching inserts to stuff a pocket. I bought 2 nappies & 1 extra set of inserts, which really comes in handy. I can also use the extra set to boost my night nappies if needed

I have two snap ins and one sewn in and I prefer the sewn, just because its all in one piece no messing around and much easier for DH to work out how to use. I don't find that it takes any longer than the snap in to dry either. I do like the idea of buying extra inserts for my snap ins though. -------------

that was going to be my next question - i find that my bitti boo takes a bit longer than usual to dry so figured that the sewn ins would????? |

What I find is the hemp part of the snap in (the bit with the purple poppers) which is the bit that is enclosed in the sewn in takes just as long to dry even out of the nappy. Ok I hope that makes some sense. So all of the rest of the snap in dries quicker than the sewn in its just that one part that takes just as long.

I find that my sewn in dries quicker than the pieces of the snap in, but I also think that the snap in is a bit more absorbant than the sewn in... So I have just bought an extra insert for the snap in so that I can use them again (but he poos in it nearly everytime and blows that theory out the door! But in saying all that I like both of them! ------------- Mum to two beautiful kids

I read on the MI website that in the description of the sewn-in it says that the sewn-in part is mf & bamboo, whereas I'm sure the trifold part of the snap-in is just bamboo?? Maybe this is where the absorbency level differs slightly? Vic xx |

Interesting, must go have alook. I was wondering if they had the same amount of layers of absorbancy as the sewn in does seem a little trimmer. But that could be 'cos they are all squished together (if that maks sense). ------------- http://lilypie.com">
