What is everyones opinion?
I had brite a long time ago with my boy and they eventually started leaking right through but am now using thirsties on my boy and have been great so far. I've seen people on here raving about the brites though so wondering which to get for the new baby. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

It probably boils down to personal preference. I have a medium Super Brite which I love, but alas its finally getting a bit small for my toddler. It still works really well, despite the elastic starting to go in the gussets.
Haven't tried the Thirsties, so can't really comment on those. |

| I haven't tried Thirsties so can't comment on them. I used to love the Super brites, have used both small and medium. But I'm really dissapointed in the last couple I bought, the velcro is not as good quality. It's not because of lint stuck in the hook bit it's loop part that stops it from working. So to be honest I don't know if I would buy them again, I have ben looking at the Thirsties but don't have any money at the moment. |

I've got both, I prefer the thirsties. The gusset is fanatsic. I have a duo though which has the OSFA snaps. It fits both my children, I snap it down for DD. AND thirsties have the snap closure as well as aplix and better patterns. ------------- Sarah Mum to, Boy 07/2008, Girl 03/2010, Boy 05/2012, Angel 07/08/2014

I'll be going thirsties as well. Love the gusset. No poo leaks at all through a fitted nappy so very happy with that result -------------
