Bummis Super Whisper Wrap Review & Giveaway (CLOSED 1/27)
I've been wanting to try one of Bummis wraps, even though I really don't need any more diapers. I got a gift card to an online cloth diaper store for Christmas, so I snagged a super whisper wrap in the celery dot pattern, newborn size (7-10 lbs.) The wraps are also available in small (8-15 lbs), medium (15-30 lbs), large (30 lbs) and extra large (40 lbs/white only.)
Bummis has 5 types of diaper covers, and this chart compares them all, to clear things up for confused people like me!
The super whisper wrap has aplix closure tabs that can cross over:
It has 2 mil PUL laminate sandwiched between 2 layers of polyester for added durability, and it feels quite sturdy.
It has a fairly generous cut, and can be used with prefolds, inserts or fitted diapers.
Bummis notes that the newborn size of the super whisper wrap is good for bigger newborns, but the Super Bright (exposed inner PUL, leg gussets, more lightweight, great for skinny babies), Super Lite (1 mil exposed PUL, trim fit, very lightweight) and Bummi Original (coated nylon and polyester mesh, very lightweight, very very trim, no elastic, use with inserts/prefolds only) will fit smaller newborns or preemies, starting around 4 pounds.
Here's the Super Whisper Wrap Newborn size measured folded and stretched:
I called in my usual diaper model for help:
Here he is in a newborn disposable for comparison:
Here's the wrap over a Kissaluvs size 0 fitted:
and over a trifolded prefold:
Here it is compared to some other newborn diapers (to compare size):
The cut/shape reminds me of the Bummis Swimmi swim diaper. I can't put the newborn cover to the test of course, but it is a very sturdy, durable cover, and a great value at $12.95!
I will accept entries until Tuesday, January 27th, 2011 at 9:00 P.M. Eastern. I will select a winner using random.org's true random number generator and notify him/her by email.

Bummis Swimmi Review and Giveaway (CLOSED)
I actually bought this Bummis Swimmi swim diaper over the winter, when I thought we were going to do swim lessons at the YMCA (we didn't.) Notice the strange color of the first few photos, that's because there was snow on the ground reflecting light into the windows!
The small fits 9-15 pounds, medium 15-22 pounds and large 22-30 pounds.
I got the turtle print, since it's all I could find in a medium. It is cute though!
Like other disposable and reusable swim diapers, the Bummis Swimmi is not absorbent, and is simply designed to catch solid waste. It has a polyester mesh lining, sandwiched nylon and a printed cotton outer. It has very easy to use hook and loop closures.
This is my little guy at about 17 pounds and 28" wearing a medium.
There's not much to say about it! It's cute, fits well, easy to use and should do the "job" fine! I would use it under a swimsuit if your baby can open velcro!
Want your own? Win it. I'm buying a Bummis Swimmi for one lucky blog reader.
