I love trying new diapers… it’s one major plus to writing SEBG because I love to try all different types of cloth diapers that are on the market that I probably otherwise wouldn’t get the chance to try!
This is true of the Charlie Banana diaper that I’m reviewing today. Snaps became my best friend once Sophia figured out how to undo the aplix diapers. But with Moreaya, I primarily reach for my aplix. I just think it’s easier to get a good fit and faster to put on her, well, until now!
When my One-Size Charlie Banana diaper arrived, oh my! The print! I just absolutely love the Robot Girl print on the Hot Pink! It’s so adorable in real life and I probably would have never taken a chance on the print otherwise, but I’m super glad it’s the one we got!
The adjustment of Charlie Banana’s are a bit different than any other OS on the market. It’s hidden inside the diaper, which is nice and is less bulky than snap-down OS diapers, but they use a “bra strap design” sizer.
It’s super easy to use and you simply slide the metal part to which letter “S, M, L”. This works so much easier than a numbered system, I think AND you only have one on each side to adjust. I’m actually using it in the middle of the Small and Medium setting for Moreaya right now and we’ve yet to have a leak in this diaper {and we have quite a few leaks from some of our others} because I’m getting such a good fit!
The OS comes with 2 microfiber inserts and we’re only using the smaller one right now. I know a lot of companies are switching to minky, and although I love the trimness of minky, I still think the microfiber absorbs and holds more.
This diaper is the first diaper I reach for if it’s clean and I’m most definitely going to be adding a couple more to our stash!
Charlie Banana also sells disposable inserts that can work with this shell, as it has a large flap at the front {where you stuff the inserts} that can hold the disposable insert in place. I haven’t tried that feature of the diaper, though.

12 weeks away from baby boy #1 and we’re on the cloth diaper route. Charlie Banana is at the top of our list right now.
We love our Charlie Banana!!! The handsome print is my favorite:-)
I love Charlie Banana! Our favorite is the construction print, but I would love to get my hands on the William Royal print.
I like the girl Cutie design for Charlie Banana.
We use the CB one size and they work so well for my daughter. I find them very easy to adjust, and the colors are great!
I have tried Charlie Bananas and love them!! The prints i want the most are the Orbit and Under Construction ones! They’re just sooo cute!
I love Robot Girl! (because girls can like robots, too!)
lovey & dovey on yellow.. too cute!
I only own 1 cloth so far (I’m 16 weeks pregnant) and it’s a Charlie Banana newborn. I can not wait to use it and I’d love to add more to my stash!
i like the under construction print. I have not tried charlie banana diapers yet
We have 6 OS CB’s and are very happy with them! I love the robot print especially since we call out dd “Bot.” My only issue with the OS is that the legs are cut for skinnier babies, dd is only 13 months and is already on the largest elastic setting so we probably won’t be able to use these through potty training.
I love CB. They never leak. We like using the black on our 11 mo. old Daughter E, even though it seems boyish it really makes her dresses and outfits pop!
I would love to have the robot boy print. I have never tried Charlie Banana before, but I would love to. I use cloth exclusively and always enjoy trying new brands and styles.
my fav colours are from the 6 pack of tutti fruitti! the colours are so bright and vibrant!
I love the Blue Petit Coeur on white!!!
Love the robot boy one – I do have 3 in my stash now:)
I like Lovey and Dovey on Yellow

Charlie Banana is one of our favourite diapers. They fit my daughter right from the start and to date we have not had any issues (7 months). They are a really nice fit. Favourite print is red petit coeur on green
