Certain brands last longer than others. I have some nappies that have been used on kids over a period of 7 years and are still going strong. I have only had a couple where the elastic has gone, but fixed those up myself. The ones I made over 6 years ago anre still going strong though, and adorn the odd dolls bottom

thats why we went with the Chinese cheapies. It was $4 per nappy (pockets) and we had our money back in 4 months.
That way it didnt matter if they lasted or not (2 years and still going strong!) |

My BBH bamboo fitted nappies and covers are onto the third child in under 4 years and are still like new.
My BBH Magicalls look new but I can hear the scrunching noise in the mediums which had some heavy use for my older two, no leaks though so they may see us through three kids. Small and large Magicalls are not used as frequently due to my preference for the fitteds for under 6 months and DS TT at 18 months so these are showing no signs of overuse. Cloth has certainly worked out cheaper than disposables for our family. |

QUOTE FWIW the BBH one size all nappies which were used and stored the same are in perfect condition! GGGRRRR Yep. I've got BBH fitteds that have lasted almost 4 years through 2 children and still going strong. They haven't been babied at all and were stored for about 10 month between babies and are all fine. Some others didn't last. I'm actually using Greenkids my sister gave to me . They are also almost 3 years old but not used as often as mine and are still going strong. I think I have lost the elastic in 1 of them only ( I have 13 or so from her) |

Apparently you are supposed to wash them every 3 months whilst stored.

BBH will almost certainly last multiple kids - they are the only brand I buy and is the reason I became a consultant.
I have the original BBH MA's, used for 2 kids and still able to be used for another. Will probably give them away to a friend as I am certainly not having any more lol |
