 Luvs Diapers are a product of the Proctor and Gamble Company and are diapers that advertise that they are much better and less expensive than most other "name brand" diapers like Pampers and Huggies.  So much for truth in advertising.

Fast Facts about Luvs Diapers

  • Contour shape that fits snugly to your babies bottom with a double wall of protection on the elastic edges to keep wetness inside.
  • Cotton like inner lining.
  • Comfortable against a baby's delicate skin.
  • Outer liner feels like a sturdy clothlike paper.
  • Tabs with Velcro and sticky stuff-makes it easier to attach and reattach and they stay locked into place.
  • Decorated with Blues Clues.
  • Faint scent of baby powder.

My Viewpoint:  Luvs Diapers are very thin in design, making you wonder how your baby could stay dry with all the "output" they normally have - especially as you get into the toddler years. I wondered no more, as they diapers were ok as my daughter was a baby, but not exactly the best protection from leaks as we grew from baby to toddler.  Many mornings we wake to a wet bed, nightgown or if I am lucky a very close to overflowing diaper that I manage to change before an accident occurs.

There are many different sizes available and the thinness of the diaper is quite nice.  Luvs Diapers are one of the cheapest of the major brand diapers, but at this point in time they are not my first choice, but they are definitely better than my experience with White Cloud Diapers.

Luvs Diapers aren't the best, but they aren't the worst either.  They do have some very nice features, but I can't say that I would actively seek them out to purchase. It's more like, I would buy them if my choices were limited or I really needed to save a few dollars that month.

In response to dovey's comment from Apr 7, 2009 at 1:44PM:

Look at it this way -- you didn't buy the white cloud! See there is a silver lining :-D hopefully they will hold up for you to get through the pack. I didn't think they were THAT much cheaper (ok yes with the coupon and a few more diapers in the pack) every little bit helps.

lisa, I just bought these! I haven't used them yet. I was on a tight budget this week and baby was running low on Huggies. I use Huggies for the night time and babysr us brand during the day. I am worried about her leaking through a LUVs now at night. Darn it!
