Little-to-Big Wool Cover Review

It's time for my favorite fiber (wool!) to make another appearance on here in the form of a Little-to-Big Organic Wool Cover by Better For Babies review.

As a quick refresher course in the wonders of wool you can check out this post that I wrote about it.


❝ While its beginnings were nurtured overseas while living abroad in Wales, Better for Babies, Inc. now has its roots firmly planted, and growing, outside Atlanta, Georgia.
 
In 2007, Leah opened her own manufacturing facility near her town’s square allowing her to see to fruition a dedication to local and sustainable production, fair wages, green business practices, and an uncompromising commitment to quality products, innovation and customer service. From there, Little Beetle organic diapers and wool covers are born. The Tres Tria Co-sleeping Solution came next, followed by a growth spurt resulting in Better For Grownups.❞

Fit: This cover has an adjustable rise, hook and loop closures, and a crossover tab for the hook and loop closure for skinny babes. This cover will definitely fit any babe, little to big. The leg elastics are not too tight like some other covers, no red marks on Eli's chunky thighs. It's a little on the "fluffier" side, but I love fluffy bums so I am ok with that, Eli will be wearing just a diaper as the weather gets warmer anyway.

Performance: It's wool, it's amazing! Really though, this cover is great. Elijah has worn it during the day and at night and we haven't ever had a leak of any sort.

Ease of Use:  In my opinion, wool is easier to use than PUL covers. They don't need to be washed as often unless they get soiled with #2, and I always wash mine in my washing machine on the delicate cycle cold then lay out to dry. No harder than caring for my cloth diapers or regular clothing laundry! The cover itself is very easy to use. I put the rise settings on the snaps that fit Eli the first time I used it so I haven't had to do it again, and this cover has a hook and loop closure so it goes on as quick as can be!



Value: This wool cover retails at $38.95. This is pretty much the average price of an organic wool cover, except most wool covers that cost this much are not one size, so by buying the Little-to-Big wool cover you are getting a better deal, this will last you from birth to potty training!

I've been cloth diapering for a few months now but have yet to try wool. I am thinking about it though! Good review!

I highly recommend wool! Once I tried it that was it, I became obsessed. I think a fitted with a wool cover will be great for the summer because it's so breathable (and wool keeps you cool when it's hot!)

wow. thanks for this review. so far we only use disana for night time and i'd love to have some less -bubble-butt-inducing wool for daytime (we LOVE LOVE LOVE our disana covers though!)
