Luvs diapers are the most affordable brand name diaper on the market. Manufactured by Proctor & Gamble, the makers of Pampers brand diapers, they are comparable to Pampers Baby Dry diapers. When I wanted an alternative to the more expensive Pampers brand diaper, I turned to Luvs diapers.
Since Luvs diapers are made by the same company as Pampers diapers, they have many of the same benefits as Pampers, but for a lower price. Luvs diapers recently underwent some changes that customers weren’t very happy about. In response to their customers’ dislike of the changes, Luvs has gone back to their original diaper scent and lining color. This explains any difference in diaper packages.
Luvs diapers have a sweet, baby soft scent that masks the odor of urine in a full diaper. Luvs diapers claim to fame is their Ultra Leakguard guarantee. Luvs offers a money back guarantee if the diaper leaks. What could be better than that?
Luvs diapers offer the absorbency of the more expensive diapers at a lower price. The lining around the leg openings of Luvs diapers is added protection against leaks. The leg openings are stretchy for a comfortable, yet snug fit.
Luvs diapers contain an aloe additive to help prevent diaper rash and sooth baby’s delicate skin. The lining is soft so that it doesn’t irritate baby’s bottom and the absorbent core pulls moisture away from the skin.
Luvs diapers have Velcro® tabs that are easily refastened for convenient wetness checks. The design on Luvs diaper is Blue Clues and features Blue in doing different activities such as snorkeling and going to school. My children love Blue Clues and are always excited to see which design will come next. Luvs diapers also has a blue quilted pattern which is unique while most diapers are plain white.
While Luvs diapers run in sizes Newborn to six and fit babies from birth to 35+ pounds they do not have stretchy tabs or backs and may appear to be too small if the child is on the brink of the next size up and the parent is used to diaper with extra stretch and flexibility. I have found that Luvs diapers fit my babies until the weight advertised on the package, only the spacing of the tabs when the diaper is closed becomes further apart as they grow.
Luvs diapers’ most attractive feature is the price. Luvs makes quality diapers at a price that is lower than other diapers with the same quality. They have recently begun to offer coupons at the request of their customers. I have found that Walmart and Target have the lowest prices on Luvs diapers and with occasional sales this diaper is very affordable.
I would absolutely recommend Luvs diapers based solely on their price. However, Luvs diapers redeeming qualities go way past their easy-to-take to take price tag. The great scent, aloe additive, and high quality tabs that resist tearing of Luvs diapers make this the perfect diaper for families on a budget.
