Bumble, Bimble & Bumper



My ds wearing a well-boosted Bumble with the fold out booster, a microfibre cloth and a 3-layer hemp booster. He is eating a red elastic band in the first photo?

I love my bumbles! You can stuff them to make them more absorbant and the fleece lining leaves baby's bottom really dry. Lovely as a night nappy and an excellent fit.

Bimbles are cute but super tiny...they don't fit up to the advertised weight range in my view, apart from that they are ace if you have a tumble dryer and a bit slow drying if you haven't

I love these i thought i loved tots bots untill i tried these they are just as good as tots bots but if you need more absorbacy through the night you can stuff them more or you can just use the booster for daytime when you need a slimmer nappy also i started to use them as my son kept getting big blisters on him bottom and fleece liners were not working but they dissapeared once i started using these.

Fab, stuffable for night use, fleecy built in liner, excellent. Not made as well as some of the other nappies, poppers came off after a few months use. Easy Peasy (the manufacturers) did fix them free of charge and send a freebie in the post though so can't complain too much.

Bimbles are lovely! So cute, so soft and one of only two brands that fitted my newborn from day one! I actually dyed a couple of mine and they took it really well. Bumbles on the other hand I found a disapointment as they seemed bulky and ill-fitting in comparison to tots bots.

Bimbles are very cute but very small. Lovely if you want a cute slim look on a newborn but won't last long so a bit of a luxury if you're on a budget.

Bumbles are FAB!! Better fitting than tots for my chunky monkey, longer in the rise so fit for longer. Love the fleece lining too. I use these well boosted for nighttime and unboosted for a lovely slim daytime nappy. All round probably my favourite nappy!

The Easy Peasy Bumper is great. My two year old DD is a super heavy wetter and had weed through heavily stuffed minkis and Fuzzis.
She goes into a Bumper and we use the fold out booster plus a microfibre towel and a two layer hemp booster. It works a treat.
DD is a big girl on 98th centile for the past couple of years and this is a great nappy fitting her beautifully.

Currently using a bumble as a night nappy. We boost it with the poppered booster supplied with the nappy, and another towelling booster, plus a couple of microfibre towels.
I like that it is a nippa waist, so I can get a close fit. The other day I think I over-booosted it between the legs as it leaked poop, so wasn't thrilled about that. The fit seems good, perhaps a little slim between the legs for nights, to accomodate a lot of stuffing.
I am not very happy with the white fleece, stuffer and outer, it stains and stains. I think I would buy a coloured bumble in future, hopefully this would be less of a problem.
Overall I think this is a nice nappy, but find the stuffie a better fit for nights.
I haven't tried it in the daytime.

Bimbles are very cute and such a sweet little tiny nappy, don't really last for very long though, much less than the Diddy Diaper.
Bumbles are great, very versatile for day or night, probably my favourite nappy overall.

The bumble did fit us a bit longer than a tots size 2 as we have been in size 3's since 51/2 months. Lovely nappy and I also loved that you could nippa it.

As an update to my last review, we now use the Bumble frequently for nights. I have changed the way I stuff them, only putting padding in the front - for a boy and the containment is ok. TBH most nappies that are too heavily stuffed between the legs will gape around the leg holes and the containment will suffer. I think the bumble is a bit slimmer than my other night nappies, but still works well with enough stuffing.
I think as a day nappy it looks fairly horrid, and seems kind of baggy, but does work. The absorbency is moderate with the poppered booster and lasts around 2.5 hours with my 17 month old.
I do kind of like this nappy it is very simple and works well, and looks silly when it isn't stuffed, but in a cute way.
The terry is not as nice as tots terry, it looks kind of aged after about 6 months of regular wear. I have one that is a year old and it is totally bald.
So not one for looks, but very versatile and a good alrounder, oh and dries fast.
Having a fleece liner is great for nights as well.

Very disappionted with these. On my three day old the bimble leaked after 20 minutes - thank goodness I also had fluffles! CHeap nasty fabric, not very absorbent.

I only use this when I've no others to hand as it's so bulky and I wish the fleece layer was terry instead as despite their size, they're not absorbant enough.

I love these - as they seem to work well as a birth-potty nappy. Very generous sizing, but not as bulky as tots size 1 when poppered down.

Anyone tried the new bamboo easy peasy nappy?

Thanks for the info about the new bamboo nappies. I have started a new thread, so if you try one, let us know what it's like. :o)

I really like my bumble. The terry has kept quite soft, and it can be boosted accordingly. It has a great fit with a nippa and the fleece liner keeps my son nice and dry.

I have a couple of these that I bought second hand because so many people raved about them.
I have to say they are OK, but that is it. I do like nappies that can be boosted by stuffing the inside, but I don't find the fit is particularly great, even when the waist is tight the legs don't fit that well.
I was also dissapointed with the terry, it is not good on the ones I have -Supposedly only nine months old, the terry looked threadbare and thin.

I love my Bimbles and have all three sizes (most people seem to think they onyl do tiny ones). I almost never tumble and they dry pretty quick. Also I don't find the fleece stains, and any stains come out with a bit of sunlight.

My only criticism is that the size 2 don't seem any larger round the waist than size 1, just thicker and more bulky with more layers. They are perfect as night nappies but I don't think I'll want to use them in the day when she grows out of size 1. Plus I don't they'll fit for long.

I have a bumble nappy and I can't fault it. This nappy is a really good all-rounder. Not pretty maybe but practical and easy to use. Pull-out booster makes for quicker drying and the terry has stayed nice a soft.

Bimbles are adorable, great for newborns - but unless you can get them really cheap (I got mine for £4 each) they may not be worth your while as mine grew out of them in two months.

I find the bumble very absorbent but very bulky so I use mine only for nightime.

I tried to use bimbles but they drove me mad as they leaked every time I used them. The fit was good and they dried quickly, it's just a shame that they didn't seem very absorbant.
