Loading... Please wait...We love cloth diapers for their many benefits. But after speaking with many cloth-diapering parents, we realized they were still buying disposable diapers for certain occasions, such as holidays and drop-offs with grandparents.
Charlie Banana® diapers are a “2-in-1” reusable diaper system. It’s a cloth diaper but with a smart front panel that gives you the option of tucking in a disposable pad for those special occasions.
With Charlie Banana® diapers, you get the best of both diaper worlds!



What makes them so special?
Charlie Banana® One Size or Size diapers are a 2-in-1 system. You can use washable inserts or disposable inserts. It's a diaper with options!
We recommend you stuff the inside with reusable inserts. However, we know there are times when you need to be able to use a disposable insert, for instance while traveling or when leaving your child with someone unaccustomed to cloth diapers.
Sized versus One Size?

Love the softness, front pocket, adjustability, and of course - the prints are awesome! These may be our new fav pocket diapers!

I was originally going to buy FuzziBunz One Size, but was encouraged to try Charlie Bananas as well. I ultimately decided to buy all Charlie Banana diapers for several reasons.
1. Easier to adjust. They only have elastic in the legs, not the waist. The flap in the front on the inside of the diaper keeps the elastic and button away from your baby's skin. For a tighter waist, there is a crossover button on the front which works very well.
2. Inserts stay contained! Because they load from the front and there is a flap to secure the insert, you don't have to worry about the insert sneaking up in the back, or never being tucked in in the first place (as with FuzziBunz). We have avoided lots of leaks this way, and the grandmothers overall have an easier time with them.
3. In all other ways these seem very well made and comparable to FuzziBunz One size.
