Pea Pods One Size

Love the trifolds. I have always washed them on 40° and have had no issue with them lasting . They suit my child from 18 months plus very well. This is when I started using them because I was after something more absorbent. I haven’t tried the shells, just the inserts. I couldn’t find any other inserts that are as absorbent. Show details

Loved these nappies while my child was young he is now 16mths and I am having constant leaks, they are no longer fitting around the legs. Currently on the search for another brand to use even though these are only 8mths old, they are no longer doing the job Show details

Trifold insert is great but the shell isn't. Constant leaks – I got given some older style pocket nappies for free and unfortunately I've always had problems with the fit . It doesn't matter what snaps you tighten , leaks always happen. Insert seems to fall down at the front and back , meaning there is constant leaks from the back of the cloth nappy. Can't get a good seal of the legs and always get blow… Read more

outs . Even switching out to a different insert it still leaks . Shells aren't great but inserts are amazing . Even with all the awards pea pods have I wouldn't reccomend buying this brand .

Good solid cloth nappy – I have bought about 6 different styles of cloth nappy and found pea pods to be one of the easiest to fit and the insert is definitely the best. I see a lot of reviews saying the nappies leak first try. Cloth nappies aren't the same as disposables they need to be fitted differently and take a number of washes before they're fully absorbent. It… Read more

takes some trial and error to make them work for your baby but pea pods really work for us. I find the elastic in the legs easier to adjust a custom fit vs snaps on other brands. They are on the bulkier side for a cloth nappy, the shell is not as stylish and the insert isn't thin (thats why it works so well) but there is a newborn hack you can use to make them smaller, we started when bub was 5 weeks old and made them work (even if he looked a bit funny). I like the lining in the shells, its nicer on bubs skin than the other brands. I also like the option of snap in or stuffing the pocket. Tried it both ways and prefer the pocket. The prints aren't as 'cool' as some other brands but the price is good I think. We started with a 10 pack and I've now bought a couple more.

Worst customer service ever – Purchased a starter pack plus a few extra single nappies. After trying the singles with constant leaks i requested a refund on the starter pack ($199). Tried ringing at first but phone just goes straight to an answer machine which tells you their preferred contact is via email. So i emailed them only to have them reply 8 days after original… Read more

email. They said a refund would be given providing products were in original condition with tags etc (which they were) and within 30 days of purchase, which they also were.

So after returning them using overnight courier with tracking i was sent a message the following day saying my package could not be delivered due to incorrect address.

So again i tried contacting them via their preferrred method of email and to date still have not received a reply. This is going on almost 3 weeks now. So now my purchase is over their 30 day return policy. My return package is sitting in Newcastle, which i have now had to request it be returned. And once returned will be useless to me.

Would not recommend Pea Pods to anyone. For expensive products you would expect better customer service. Very disappointed!

Things you need to know about them – Firstly, don’t do what I did & think you needed them before your buns is born. There are plenty of nappy libraries you can access to find the best fit for your bins. I personally think they should stop selling them as OSFM from birth - they are too bulky for most bins until at least 4-8 weeks. I also have a side sleeper so I can’t use them at… Read more

night. Plus she is also a lean baby so I do have to be extra careful with the fit or they can leak.

Now this goes for all nappies. Soak the inserts in cold water for 24 hours & then do a wash to prepare them (so you don’t have to wash them a gazillion times first to get them to maximum absorbency). If you have a front loader, use the prewash setting. If you have a top loader do a short wash with a little detergent first & then a heavy hot wash with full detergent & they will be super clean. I dry pail them but poo soiled bits get a quick wash with detergent & a toothbrush.

at 15 months they’re still going strong for daytime use. She decided before 12 months that she hated lying down for changes & they are super easy to change sitting up in your lap.

I got a full time pack (24 nappies, some boosters & bamboo breat pads) at a baby expo for $300 so for the price I’m not complaining

Love these nappies – Have been using the OSFM (one size fits most) with the adjustable leg elastics. We have used these nappies from about 8 weeks of age (too bulky for a newborn). Bub is now 15 months and the nappies are still going strong. The trifold inserts are supet absorbant. I love that i jave the option to either stuff the insert in the pocket or clip it in.… Read more

We have had a couple of leaks, but mostly from bubs output not a nappy fault. I have found that I haven't adjusted the leg elastics to a larger size and they fit better. These are hubbies favourite nappies as there are no rise snaps to adjust or get confused with. These nappies have held up well in a stash of approx 30 nappies and washed at 60 degree for the main wash

Great product – We've been using Pea Pods with our son from when he was 3 months. We've not used disposables. The liners are very absorbent - we put the tri-fold in the pocket rather than using the snaps. They wash and dry well. The leg elastic works perfectly well. We found that use them overnight with an additional waterproof pilcher that we had left over from… Read more

his later newborn phase. This allows the nappy to fill overnight without leaking onto his clothes - this is usually 12 hours as he sleeps through the night. I'm not sure why people have such trouble with leaking. That hasn't been our experience.

Don't do the job – The bra strap adjuster for the leg tightness moves every wash, so you have to continuously adjust them every time you need to use them. Like a cheap bra. They leak urine and faeces, lots of clothing changes through the day. They are bulky and awkward. Tried a different absorber and it's the nappy case itself. I've made it so tight it has marked… Read more

bubs chubby legs and it still leaked. Emailed the company and their response is just it's the consumers fault not the product being faulty. I don't recommend.

Too many leaks – Found the nappies to be poor quality with loose and uneven stitching and experienced so many leaks. Tried bambino mios and can even use them overnight with no issues! Cared for the pea pods nappies exactly as instructed but we get at least one leak a day. Also cannot get the nappy to fit nicely. Do not recommend. Show details

Too bulky for Newborns – The absorbent inner liner is too bulky and doesn't stay up on a newborn even with a onsie, resulting in leakage out the legs. I could not get my newborn comfortable in these. They need to come up with a better design for the inber liner.

They leak badly – The nappies leak pee and solids. Not useful at all. Show details

Great inserts, hopeless shells – Received as a gift and was impressed with the softness and absorbency of the inserts. Stay dry later seems to work a treat. However like many others I’ve found the shells hopeless - PUL is leaking after a handful of washes!!! Will try to extend the shell life by laying the insert on top of the shell stay dry layer (rather than using it as a… Read more

pocket) but the last time I did that the trifold folded in on itself, resulting in a leak anyway.

In short, don’t waste your money on pea pod shells but inserts are good

Terrible leakage! – I got a mixture of pea pods and another brand because I'd read that they'd won an award for reusable nappy of the year. They are terrible, they leak after no time at all, the insert bunches at the top and the liquid doesn't pull through the length of the pad it just gets wet at the top and leaks through onto my baby's clothes which means we have… Read more

to change outfits with the nappy. The other brand I use is much better. Read reviews before purchasing!

Great inserts, average shells and washing instructions! – I’ve been using pea pods for 10 years straight now, about to finish with my 3rd child. I wanted them to work, I didn’t want to contribute to land fill and we lived in central Australia (perfect drying conditions!). I persevered following the company’s washing instructions with my first 2 kids, finding them ok absorbency-wise but struggled with… Read more

stains and smells and ammonia burns on my poor bub.

Third child someone put me on to Clean Cloth Nappies advice and now I do a warm prewash with detergent to rinse nappies and then a long hot wash with extra detergent and with the machine properly loaded to get them cleaned properly! No more stains, smells or, most importantly, any ammonia burns. Excellent advice based on science with evidence to back it up!!

Would highly recommend pea pods update their washing advice to be based on the latest scientific evidence.

Waste of money – I've tried these nappies on both of my children (baby boy & toddler girl), and they leek through in under an hour! They're bulky and poor quality. One of them arrived with a broken press stud! I've since tried another brand and had no trouble. Don't waste your money on Pea Pods, I wish I didn't! Show details

Terrible and horrendous customer service – First, nappies leak all the time. Quality of workmanship is terrible, some of the adjustable components were sewn in incorrectly making it impossible to adjust without unpicking some of the threads (the adjustable strap was sewn onto the nappy. Second washing instructions followed as per website and the wash bag left little red stains on all… Read more

nappies, this shouldn’t happen I’d advise to wash on warm.

Very bulky too!

Lastly, when you call the customer service number it always goes to voicemail and the response via email is terrible. I wrote clearly and the pretence I didn’t know what I was talking about from their part was disgusting.

Don’t bother. There is many brands out there and I’m sure there is better!

Leaks – Leaks almost immediately, does not matter what sizing i use (s,m'l) this is with the trifold, cover and nightbooster... my bub 8 months have tried to use but to many leaks. Prefer alva which is only 1/3 price of peapods. Show details

Shells always leak - inserts are the best thing about them – Cannot get a good fit with peapods unfortunately, no matter how I adjust the elastics or how I'm putting them on. I only use them with a PUL cover now because I don't trust them, even for 2 hours, to not leak around legs. The inserts are decent - I often just use them in other brand nappy shells that I get a much better fit with. Show details

These leak! – I bought these at an expo in 2018. They leak after 1-2 hours. Even going through pants. Quite disappointed with these. I still use them, but have to change often. Show details

Very leaky – The trifold inserts are too bulky and the nappy doesn’t seal around the legs well, even with the adjustable leg holes. They just leak all the time. It is very frustrating. Show details

Leaky hard elastic nappy – The elastics get harder and harder to tighten. They leak more then any other brand I've used so far.i do like the wet bags and inserts but that's about it really Show details

Leaking after 1-2hours – Keep tightening the elastic around the legs but starts leaking after 1-2 hours. Seem to be 10 times less absorbent campered to the cheapest disposable nappies. Such a waste of money. Show details

Very happy with these nappies – We were using other cloth nappies (more expensive) beforehand and they were leaking all the time, which was really annoying. Then a friend recommended Pea Pods and gave me one to try. We didn't have any leaks even after 4 hours (trying to push for the limit) and I bought a whole stash straight away. Have been using them for the past 6 months. I… Read more

guess every baby is different and it's trial and error, but Pea Pods are perfect for my baby and I highly recommend them. I bought the first 11 new and then some more second hand.

Leaking – Leak after 1.5 hours first time using them with a 6 month old. Followed instructions so no user fault. Very disappointed in the product and feel like it was a waste of money. Show details

Not perfect but nothing is – Have used these on my 6 month old for about a month. Do get about 1 leak per day from around the legs where the insert seems too wide and bunches up, but was getting *at least* one leak per day with disposables too. Definitely improves after nappies have been through the wash a few times. Has gone 12 hours at night with little leakage, again,… Read more

similar to or better than she was doing in disposables. Not sure how they will go as she grows, but pretty happy for now. Starter pack comes with loads of nappies but you might want an extra booster or two.

Do not buy this product – I purchased a huge $300 starter set of these nappies. I put them in the wash so I could use them. I found about 20 press studs that had come off during the load. They literally fell apart. Terrible quality Show details
