Side by Side Comparison of: Luvs vs Pampers

I have been using LUVS diapers for years now.. When I use it the first time about few years ago for my second baby, they were more thicker and softer..and we have no complain at all especially for the price..it did the job well..We've been using again now for our latest baby, and I could say it's way more thinner and feels more plasticky..fortunately they are still doing what it supposed to do, doesn't leak or make a rash on our baby..For the price, it's still a good diaper. I use Luvs after my baby passes his 2 months mark (or reach size 1), and use different brand for the newborn phase since they are more softer.

I love those diapers bc for the price they do get the job done! They are cheap and they work ---what more can you ask for of a diaper. I do however DO NOT recommend them for the night as they do leak- protection is not good there at all- hence I took off one star. But quality is ok, they are not as stiff or good as for example pampers- but again as a day diaper they work, and they are not generic- they are pampers just the lower shelf pampers. I keep recommending them to my friends and family bc they really are good FOR THE PRICE.

I love these diapers! We have always been a Huggies family after we switched from cloth diapers to disposables, but after looking to save some money we tried these. They have a distinct (kind of annoying) baby powder smell which is why I gave them only 4 stars. It's not my favorite smell, but neither is poo so the smell ends up being okay after a #2! The hold an amazing amount and NO leaks! My 11 month old is a very heavy wetter, couldn't find a cloth diaper that worked for him and even sometimes he would leak in Huggies. But not these so far! He sleeps 10-13 hours at night in 1 of these and we have had no issues with leaking, and they fit true to size! Will be buying these again.

We use these as our night/long trip diapers. Our child is extremely sensitive to diapers and will rash when left too long in one of these so we use another brand for our everyday diaper. These are the absolute workhorse of long lasting, never explode, can make it through 9 hour nights and hold like 4-5 cups of fluid without leaking. Seriously, a few times our daughter has sat down in her splash pool or ran through sprinklers in one of these when we did not have a swim diaper on and they got huge and heavy but never once exploded. We love these diapers and would use them all the time if we did not have such a sensitivity issue. They have a cute purple cross hatch design and not a strong scent but do not have a wetness sensor.Pros:- long lasting never explodes- perfect all night diaper- nice not heavy scent- soft and comfortableCons:- higher end pricing- no wetness sensor- can cause some rashes on sensitive or allergy prone children

They may not absorb 8 gallons of water, but the quality has been fine through sizes 1-5 on two different kids. I'd rather change a diaper more frequently than have some ridiculously expensive diaper, changed less frequently, that claims to be super duper absorbant. In the end, there's pee and poop strapped to your kid, and no matter how much a diaper absorbs, it's a good idea to minimize the time that stuff is touching their skin.If your kids pee a lot at night and soak through the diaper, then buy nighttime diapers for night.If you find that your kids pee finds its way out of the diaper, it might be that you strapped them in incorrectly. Some other diapers may make this easier... but in the end I find reviews that say positive and negative things about all diapers, some people are naturally able to strap their kid in right with one brand, while others with another brand. With some practice you can make any of them work.Disclaimer: If your kid has an allergic reaction to a diaper, obviously don't use it, but it isn't the diaper's fault. That'd be like saying peanut butter is bad because your kid is allergic to it. It is quite common for kids to get skin rashes, it can be from contact dermatitis from a million things, or even from food, it may not even be the diaper causing it. Sometimes hard to tell, but better safe than sorry is a good approach.

*11/21 It now looks like in regards to the rash that it might be the toilet seat cover that we have for her. Our son continues to now get very very few rashes ever since we switched to luvs*I will need to revisit this later and my initial review is below.Prior to this change I had loved luvs and would tell anyone I knew to switch. But like many others I am not ecstatic over this switch too less diapers same price. Due to having a superior experience with them for so long with my son I was able to still look past the price because they are still relatively cheap. My daughter has had far better skin then my son and to date had not gotten a single rash. Now at 1 and half she suddenly seems to have this minor rash that isn't bothering her much but seems to go away and then pop back up. It's only been about a week so it could be the cold possibly but I am not sure. After reading other reviews I am inclined to want to point the finger at the diapers but I am not yet doing that. On top of this we have also had some leaking lately which I chalked up to us goofing... Well after other reviews I am again inclined to want to point the finger.I will update this soon after some more time with them and leave my initial review in which I raved about them because I could be wrong.*Initial review*I and my kids truly do love luvs! We had noticed early on that my son got very bad rashes and had always chalked it up to being very sensitive skin alone. So we would go about trying to buy the most expensive brands assuming they must be the best which lead to the mistake of skipping on luvs because they just seemed like too great of a price. It was almost instant though for my son, within days of saying lets just give it a shot they are cheap why not his rashes had finally gone away. It was such a relief to not hear him scream like from a horror movie over simply being changed.On top of the diapers not causing rashes anymore they honestly seemed to hold the best out of all the brands we tried which was another big win for us. With both my son and daughter in diapers the fact these diapers are the cheapest every time and to us seem to be the best quality it has been a great switch that has saved me lots of money over time

We've been buying Luvs for our kids for many years. They were such a good value that we subscribed to receive monthly shipments of them... Until recently. I noticed that the last few packages of them were different. The diaper itself has changed to a much thinner material, and that saggy/floppy bottom that Pampers is making a big deal of in their commercials is actually starting to happen when my toddler wears Luvs. Even the smallest amount of wetness will cause this to happen, and it wasn't this way until recently. We are so disappointed to have to switch to a different brand now.

I was so excited to try these again now that my daughter is older. We had originally purchased Huggies Snug and Dry and Cruisers. Huggies did the job and kept her dry and more importantly - NO LEAKS! I had read wonderful reviews about LUVS and they were cheaper so we purchased these for my Mom who keeps her during the week part-time and another box for here at home. What a disappointment!!! On the car ride home from my Mom's she leaked all over her brand new car seat! Then two days later she woke up from a nap (I change her right before naptime) she leaked all over her bed! These LUVS are not worth the extra work of having to do laundry and clean over and over. (Not to mention how difficult cleaning car seats is.) Throwing these out and going back to Huggies.

The only thing that i like about Luvs is the customer service that is when you contact them through Facebook, when you call them they offer you a 2.00 coupon. I really like the price that is why i bought them in the first place, what i didn't like was the fact that my son was in then for less them 2 hours during the night before we woke up upset because the diaper leaked, through his clothes and bassinet into the floor I had no clue that was even possible, I called them and tried to explain what had happened and the lady said it must be a defective pack of diapers....we are gonna offer you a coupon, i am pretty sure that the on the box it states money back guarantee, I bought a big back of 148 and 325, and they offered me 50.00 gift card, not my money back but i took it, never again will i buy luvs. Horrible.

These really were a major disappointment! We switched from pampers because the price seemed high. We tried these for four months, they have NO leak guards and often after two hours of wear would have to change my daughters entire outfits. We tried a bigger size and same results. We are now switching back to pampers. We thought we would save money but after you add up the cost to do laundry more often the extra cost is worth it. These diapers are no better than the store brands.***Update***back around December of 2015 I originally wrote my review for these diapers see above. I was then contacted by email by their online customer relations manager stating how sorry they were and implying that I didn't understand the diaper sizes. So I called Luvs and the woman said I did understand diaper sizes thank you and that for my troubles I would receive a $50 Citibank visa gift card! UNFORTUNATELY THAT NEVER HAPPENED, we are in April now! So needless to say the diapers were awful and so was the customer service. The woman on the phone even told me to keep one or two so they could see what the problem was. Well after 5 months give or take those went in the garbage were they belong.

The sticker part is unbelievably sharp, it made a lot of cuts on my baby's belly (see pic). Although he's a very active boy, but none of previous diaper ever hurt him like this. The old pack of Luvs is fine, even good actually, so I subscribed this. I didn't thought the new one has this much of difference. Besides, the size are different, the new size 4 is definitely smaller than the old one.

What happened to Luvs? Have used these on both of my grand children one boy and one girl for the last three years. Always worked great...but this last batch of size 4 diapers was VERY different. Extremely thin and leak as soon as she pees one time...nothing absorbs into the diaper, it all just comes out the inside of the legs where the "leak guards" are supposed to be.....did you forget the absorbing gel on this last pack of diapers? Definitely NOT THE SAME as the size threes she just used. Those would absord and expand with the pee....these just pour out! Extremely disappointed.
