I researched many brands of cloth diapers before finding this brand.  I purchased several products from this manufacturer and I'd have to say that although I like the concept of these fitted, velcro diapers, I don't find them to be any more absorbent or convenient than a plain old tri-fold.  I don't think they are as absorbent as they appear to be.  I have had to purchase doublers, liners, and anything else I can get my hands on to desperately try to make these diapers work for me without leaking or getting soaked too quickly.  I have not found anything that really helps yet.  If I had known this before, I would have just paid the money for the more expensive brands & styles.  This bargain isn't really a bargain when you add up all the extras you need to buy!
