Tots bots Reusable/Cloth Nappies
by WhichNappy.co.uk
TotsBots is a UK-based family-run firm that has been producing reusable nappies since 2001. Tots bots was one of the first firms to introduce bamboo nappies in 2003 and was the first cloth nappy ever to win the Mother & Baby gold award. Tots bots nappies are produced in Glasgow and the product range includes easy fit (incl. limited edition), bamboozle, flexi tots, teeny fit, wraps and others.
Easy fit and Teeny fit:
Easy fit is an "All in One" nappy - it has no separate wateproof wrap and the booster is attached. Teeny fit is a similar nappy but for smaller babies. Easy fit is available in 7 colours, 6 prints and features:
- Shaped design with Elasticated legs & waist;
- Integral waterproof outer and Aplix fastening;
- Slim fitting with multidirectional stretch;
- One size from birth to potty on most – simply adjust the height using the poppers on the front;
- Fold out core for fast drying and wick proof edging to prevent leaks;
- Optional bamboo insert for night time.
Bamboozles:
The Bamboozle stretch nappy is made from stretchy bamboo and because there’s only soft fibres next to baby’s bottom this nappy is ideal for babies with sensitive skin. The nappy has very good absorbency yet slim fitting and will last the night with the addition of an extra booster. This nappy won the Mother & Baby Gold award in the Best Reusable nappy category 2010/2011. Bamboozles available in Size 1 (6-18 lbs) and Size 2 (9-35 lbs) and features:
- Slim fitting with multidirectional stretch;
- Leakproof design with Elasticated legs & waist;
- Aplix fastening;
- Optional Birth to potty — The Size 2 fits from 9lbs by adjusting the poppers on the front;
- Hidden microfibre core and pop in bamboo booster increases absorbency and speeds up drying time;
- Fabric is more durable than terry bamboo and stays softer longer, great for hard water areas;
- This nappy requires a waterproof wrap.
Flexitots:
Flexitot has been designed to strike the optimum balance between absorbency, fit and drying time. The new improved version of Flexitots has a fold out absorbent core for quicker drying and an neater fit. By folding on the poppers on the front you can reduce the size of the nappies covering a broader weight range. The size one nappy is now perfect for tiny babies fitting from 5lbs to 18lbs. However if you have a baby that is 9lbs or more, skip the size one all together and go for the size 2 as a birth to potty option. Flexitots features:
- Activflex technology for better fit, comfort and containment;
- Slim fitting with multidirectional stretch;
- Quick drying with fold out booster;
- Very durable and perfect for hard water areas;
- A great night time nappy with additional booster.

Reusable nappies can be made from natural fibers, manmade materials, or a combination of both. They are often made from industrial cotton which may be bleached white or left the fiber’s natural colour.
