Motherease Sandys nappy

Multi-sized shaped terry nappy. Price from £8.00 or £7.60when you buy 10 or more (5% discount off all sizes)
This stretchy, terry towelling knit nappy is multi-sized, giving a good fit and level of absorbency for your child at different ages. A very high performing nappy, it has three inbuilt layers of soft, short-pile terry between the legs and is made from 85% cotton and 15% polyester for added durability and softness. It has gentle elastic all around the waist and legs to ensure good containment. The Sandys fastens with multi-positioned poppers at the sides, fastening separately for the waist and thigh allowing a good customized fit. Made in Canada by Motherease.

Sizing
Two-sizes (the small and the large) will suit most babies from birth to potty. There is also an XS/newborn version for smaller babies or a very neat fit, and an XL for bigger toddlers or for a night nappy for older children. The weight ranges for the four sizes are as follows:
Extra-small 6 - 12lb (2.7 - 5.5Kg)
Small 8 - 20lb (3.6 - 9.1Kg)
Large 18 - 35lb (8.2 - 15.9Kg)
Extra-large ('Toddle-ease'): 35lb+ (15.9Kg+)
If your baby is of quite a large build or tall and grows out of the small size early you might want to consider going straight to the XL size and missing out the Large.

Options
Available in a creamy natural, unbleached colour in all sizes. White is available in Small and Large sizes only. The extra soft and luxurious organic cotton Sandys is available in Small and Large sizes. Organic cotton has less environmental impact in its production than standard cotton and makes for a stronger, more flexible and durable fibre. (Click for more information on why choose organic fibres.)

Advantages & disadvantages compared with other shaped multi-sized nappies: Slim fitting and durable. Sizing allows for good fit, but means you need to buy multiple sizes. Being quite an absorbent nappy it takes a fairly long time to hang dry. High in the rise (height) and covers a large area of the nappy area, so lots of absorbency without being bulky. The leg cuffs come relatively low down the thighs giving good containment - more of a 'briefs' cut than a 'bikini' cut!

We think this nappy is hard to beat for containment, staying in place and slim fit ~ one of our favourites!

What else will I need? You may choose to use nappy liners (either disposable or reusable e.g. fleece). You will need outer covers/wraps. You may also need boosters for heavier wetters or for night times. There is plenty of room in the nappy for this. Any sit-in style boosters are suitable, but the Motherease booster matches the nappy or try the Mother of Eden fleece-topped microterry booster for maximim comfort.
Suggested wraps The higher rise (height) wraps Motherease Rikki or Air Flow probably suit this nappy best, though Nature Babies Classic Covers and Tots Bots Fleece wraps also work provided they are big enough to cover the nappy well e.g. the medium Nature Babies wrap would be best over the small sandy's nappy on 'average' sized babies.
Re-sale value Good.
