LuxButt organic one size cloth diaper review

I had the opportunity to be a product tester for a new brand of cloth diapers. Here's my review:

100% Canadian designed one-size ORGANIC pocket cloth diapers that are LUXurious, stylish, affordable and best of all EASY TO USE. LUXbutt one-size organic cloth diapers are an adjustable one-size fits most that will fit your baby from newborn to toddler (approx. 8-40lbs). Made with LUXurious 100% certified organic cotton velour and waterproof PUL. LUXbutt diapers are super easy to use and oh so LUXurious on your baby’s butt! Just stuff & snap and you’re good to go!

Features (from their website)
-one size pocket diaper (fits most from newborn to potty training!)
-inside: super soft LUXurious  ORGANIC cotton velour
-super easy – just stuff and snap!
-Place your fav LUXinsert on top of pocket and use as a hybrid system (only changing the insert until the cover is soiled)
-Each diaper comes with a super thirsty LUXhemp insert
-Super wide back elastic to hold in the messiest of messes!
-breathable
-waterproof  PUL outer
-durable snaps (tons of sizing options!)
-modern color collections
-good for day & night use (additional inserts available for heavy wetter’s & night use)
-most of all comfy & super trim fit!

Pros
-Super soft inside of diaper, especially if it goes through the dryer. 
-Absorbent insert (lasts through naps without a problem).
-Very trim fit.
-Huge size range with easy-to-adjust elastic.
-Nice colors (though I would have LOVED a black one...).
-Very large opening to the pocket. Makes stuffing the diaper so easy compared to other brands of pockets we have tried.
-Snaps cross over in the middle, which allows for more variability in the fit.


Cons
-Only comes with one insert. It works well for Miles at almost 19 pounds, but I would like to see how well it fits in the diaper at the smallest end of the size range, or how absorbent it is at the largest end of the size range.
-I couldn't find a guide on where to set the elastic for the appropriate size for Miles, so it was a guessing game. Unfortunately, that led to a leak in the process because the elastic was set a bit large on the legs for the first attempt.
-Price (for me) is a little high ($24.95 Canadian), but the diapers are great.

We have used this diaper for almost 3 weeks. Overall, I would recommend it to a friend.
