Really, really nice covers.
They don't leak, are very adjustable, super durable and *so* cute.

I use these diaper covers over pinned/Snappi'd prefolds and fitteds. The size large fits my 3 year old at the largest setting and my chunky-thighed 8 month old at the smallest setting. I love how the snaps give me so many sizing options; being able to adjust the waist and thigh settings separately is a huge plus. The elastic casing does a great job of containing diaper disasters but is still soft after many washings. The covers are well constructed and have held up great under my wash routine with no wicking.
The prints are adorable, and the covers easily squish down under clothing. I use them with onesies and t-shirts during the summer and have gotten many compliments on the designs.

I purchased these covers for my now 19 month-old son because of all the great reviews posted here. They are not completely bad covers, but there is one major issue that I have with them: THEY LEAVE RED MARKS - EVEN ON THE LARGEST SNAP SETTING.
And my son is below 50th percentile for height and weight for his age. He only weighs 24 lbs at 19 months old. His legs do not have rolls, they are quite skinny compared to some kids. So the elastic is just too tight, I guess. Also, there isn't soft material around the elastic. That said, the covers have other excellent qualities (but for me the red marks are deal-breakers). For those interested, the PRos are:
1. hold up well in the wash
2. very cute prints
3. side snaps are convenient
4. haven't had a single leak yet (but we use fitteds that fit well and we're past the poop-splosion stage, so they haven't been truly tested)
Maybe I'm overly sensitive about the red marks, but once when my DH put one of these covers he didn't scoot the cover up close enough to my DS's crotch area (so he was wearing the cover like shorts) and the red marks were quite deep. I will be selling these covers and buying something else - with soft leg casings (like the stacinator so simple - it's not that attractive but it definitely doesn't leave red marks).

i love these covers. the prints are adorable, they're very well-made, and because of the side snaps, my girls can't strip down during nap time. mine have been washed several times and they're holding up just fine. the only times i've had leaks have been when i've gone too long between diaper changes (my girls are very heavy wetters). we use them over prefolds with a snappi and the fit is great. i'll definitely be buying more.

I've been using GEN-Y covers since he was in smalls, and we're now heading toward outgrowing the mediums so I recently ordered a couple larges. These are fantastic covers. They're gorgeous, the prints are fun, and they work really well. We've actually not had a single leak in these (we have had a couple with our pocket dipes). I love that they snap and I don't have to deal with hook and loop closures (which I really don't like very well). Overall, they're fun and beautiful. They're not the cheapest cover, but if you really want something both beautiful and functional, this is the cover to get.

Once we hit the ""medium"" cover size mark (which I anticipate we'll be staying at for many months), I wanted to find a cover made with snaps. Velcro starts to wear out no matter how carefully you launder it. The absolutely adorable prints led me to try the Gen-Y cover.
My son has very trim legs but a nice sized belly and we get a great fit with this cover. It does not have gussets (which I generally favor) but the leg fits snugly enough to avoid blowouts. The inside is lined with laminate which makes them easily reuseable with wet diapers, just wipe it out, let dry and use again!! The outside is cotton so if you have a ridiculously wet diaper, it will start to wick from the leg hole, but I have only found that to happen twice when my prefold was sopping wet (and I was a bad Mommy and didn't change soon enough!!)
These covers are very generously sized and fit well over fastened prefolds and fitted diapers. I don't think these would be good for people who trifold due to the side snaps which can leave a small gap. These are a lot like the MotherEase AirFlow covers but soften and in far cuter prints!
My only negative would be the price They are a lot more expensive than the other covers I use, but they use adorable designer fabrics. You won't find a cuter cover out there and they work well. I look forward to adding more as I can afford them.

I love almost everything about these covers! The fabric is gorgeous, the cover is very well constructed and the snaps are awesome and the fit at the thighs and waist is great due to the 3 snap positions. My only complaint is the overall fit - I'm using trifolded prefolds and prefer a trimmer fit - I find these quite baggy. That said, my little one is toward the low end of the weight range and these may fit better as she grows. I think these would be awesome over fitted diapers!

This diaper cover was my favorite. It fit my son well and had the cutest pattern. Unfortunately, moisture began leaking through the cover after about 9 months, rendering it useless. I follow washing instructions exactly for my diapers and covers. I don't think the problem was due to my washing routine as my other covers are working just fine.

I LOVE these covers. I've been using them for over a year now. They fit great, are super cute, and very unique. I love the fabric selection. We have Chocolate Lollipop in Small, Medium and Large since I loved the print so much. We also have Fresh Cut, and Kashmir. These are my favourite covers and I love that they have snaps instead of aplix.

I am so glad I ordered one of these covers. After reading all the positive reviews I just had to get my hands on one. Well it came in the mail today and I'm so happy. It's so beautiful, well crafted, and the size is perfect(ordered a large for my 26lbs. 20 mo. old). I love the way there are 3 size ranges for the waist and the legs, we'll get lots of use out of it. Now my LO won't rip it off 'cause no more velcro!
And Elizabeth, I cannot say enough good things about the way she handles her customers! Perfect customer service, fast and sincere. I own my own business as well and know it's hard to be ""personal"" with your clients. But she went above and beyond to answer my questions and help me out. Great lady & great company!
I am looking forward to my next purchase from Gen-y!

I had 2 of these-- the chocolate lollipop and fresh cut -- for my daughter in small. They fit for about 5 months and she was/is a big girl. They are very pretty and I love how thin and comfortable they are. They are the priciest of all the cover I tried so that would be their only downside. If price is not an issue, fabulous covers.

Not only are these covers beautiful, they do their job better than any other cover! I have yet to have a single leak and find myself reaching for these first! I love how the snaps give you so many options depending on how your baby is shaped. We've been using the XS since birth (6lb10oz) and they still fit perfectly(12lbs8oz)with plenty of room to grow.
I have gotten so many compliments on the Bremen cover..my fave! We've got the 3 Little Pigs for the next size up and I can't wait to use it!
GREAT customer service also!!

When I saw these online, I thought they were so cute! I love them even more now that I have them in hand. With summer here, my little one doesn't normally wear pants just the diaper. I was a bit worried about fir as my guy isn't as round as some babies but they fit wonderfully, just snug enoug to keep the messes in. DH really likes them too! I bought the Jolly Roger and Bad Luck covers. I still want to get the one with the Dia de Muerte pattern!

This is my 4th cloth diapered baby and I have tried many, many covers. I have never felt compelled, until now, to write a review, even though I rely on these reviews myself.
I absolutely love these covers! I use wool at night but these are what I use during the day. I used to get bummed when I had to cover the adorable diaper prints (Good Mama or Bagshot Row Bamboo) with blah covers, but not anymore!
This style cover is the most functional I have found. They are great for the trim fitted diapers, pinned prefolds and also the bulkier diaper. I am so excited to have them in stylish prints - both the hip & edgy or cute & vintage prints. Such a great product.
Bonus - They look super cute by themselves with a t-shirt or tank in the warmer months!

I like these quite a bit. I have them in the sugar skulls (las calaveras) and the tattoo print skin deep. These are offered in a wide range of interesting and ever changing prints, if you like one you may as well get it since it probably won't be around forever. I liked the ME air flow cover in the newborn stage so I knew I'd like this style. They are similar but thankfully with bigger leg openings, sort of a puffier fit than a Thirsties type and not to be used with a non-snappi'd prefold for example. I'd assume they provide more air circulation too, which I like.
They have cotton fabric on the outside instead of the synthetic fibers on many PUL covers, so they do take a bit longer to dry if you lay them out, but they also work fine in the dryer. They might fade more quickly than the all synthetic types due to the cotton outer, but they also come in way cuter prints, no need for bloomers under the summer dresses anymore. :) I've been using mine in daily rotation for 4 months now and they still look great.
And Elizabeth at GEN-Y is really great, I bought a second and had a snap issue, and she fixed it very quickly. She definitely stands behind her products.

I love, love these diaper covers. I really recommend the wetbags and the laundry bags as well. Super cute prints. The maker of this stuff has really good taste and knows how to make adorable items! They are also plush and fit well on my baby, don't leak and work great with both fitteds and prefolds. The sizes run kind of big, so be sure to check that before ordering. Can't wait to try more!

Love these covers and the prints are adorable. I love the snaps because they don't rub on baby's tummy like velcro covers do. I would have rated it a 5, but the binding gets really snagged and worn after a few months. I wish it didn't!

I LOVE this cover! First of all, how cute are her prints?
Second, this cover fits my dd perfectly. I have a big girl- with a small waist and chunky thighs. She is 15+lbs now at almost 4 months and I still have room to grow in the small. I put a smaller fitting sustainablebabyish fitted on under the cover, as well as a too-fat HHHH and BOTH work nicely. Her elastic is so soft and leaves no redmarks- and that goes for the snaps, too.
Third, Elizabeth is an absolute pleasure to do business with- very prompt with emails, questions and shipping. And her prices are extremely reasonable! I am her newest loyal customer!!
Oh, and I purchased two of her lap-t dresses for a little diy embellishing to go with the diapers- Elizabeth went out of her way to help me out with scrap pieces!! She just rocks!!

I have had a terrible time finding covers that don't leak after 30 minutes of wear by my very heavy wetting one year old. These covers are a miracle. I put it on my daughter 2 hours later I realized she had not leaked. The fitted was heavily saturated but the cover locked it all in. I just ordered some more because my husband and I are constantly using this one and bummed when it is in the wash. The other great thing about this cover is that they are side snap!!!! Wonderful feature if you have a little one that is constantly taking off any aplix diapers and covers. She can't figure out how to get out of it and I LOVE that. They come in beautiful prints and are very cute. I have taken so many pictures of my daughter with this cover on. Thank you to the maker of this cover, it has been a godsend.

These covers have everything rolled into one great package - durable, good fit, no leaks, and very cute fabrics. They are a bit pricier than Thirsties, but not by much, and I find them to be better at containing blow-outs and leaks. I used a small cover on my son from 2 months until 6 months, and it still looked great. Also, Elizabeth is great to do business with - quick shipping and friendly service. Love it!

This is a great cover. The print and quality of the fabric are super. My favorite part, though, is the fact that the snaps for the waist and thigh areas can be individually adjusted. My daughter is fairly slender on the waist, but her thighs are a little chunky. That's not a challenging fit with this system. Love it!

GENY covers have by far the best fabrics of the sites I looked at, and the covers are so well-made! Elizabeth was super helpful and provided great customer service, I would definitely recommend buying from this seller!
The cover fit really well over both trim prefolds and bulky fitted diapers, and I had no problems with wicking or leaking. I especially like that the leg and waist openings can be adjusted individually, as my son has medium chubby thighs but a skinny little waist.

When I first got this cover I thought it would be huge but I was wrong! This diaper fits great. I bought a size S and at 3 months with really chunky thighs, the baby is still on the tightest snaps so we still have a lot of use left in this. We've never had any leaks, wetness or a blowout and we use it mainly with prefolds. The cover also looks really cool and it's the first one my husband grabs when he changes the baby.
