This is the size 2 Flexitot nappy which is suitable for use as a Birth to Toddler for all but the smallest child.

Tots have put a lot of thought into this nappy and have backed it up with extensive testing, so it seems sensible to let them introduce it to you in their own words.

"The FlexiTot - Putting performance into nappies, so nothing gets out!

Everything we know about textiles, nappies and babies have been bundled together in this amazing new design. Activflex technology provides the optimum balance between absorbency, containment, fit and drying time.

The nappy has a unique multitextile core. It's the way in which these materials work together that make FlexiTot as thirsty as you'll ever need:

• Bamboo velour - Whilst this is the softest, yummiest fabric we have ever made it also provides an absorbency rate that is second to none (over 60% more absorbent than cotton fibre). It is also naturally antibacterial which is just perfect for nappies.
  
  
• Microfibre - The layers of this fabric provide all the capacity needed whilst being incredibly quick drying (the fabric will hold twice as much liquid as cotton per gramme so you get all the absorbency you need without the bulk)
  
  
• Technical outer skin - Usually only seen in sportswear and the like this material does amazing things for the performance of FlexiTot. It stays dry around baby's waist and helps keep wetness within the terry core whilst remaining completely breathable. NB. This is not a waterproof layer but resists penetration by wetness a wrap still needs to be worn over the top.

Because at some point all babies like to get up and groove, all the fabrics in the nappy have multidirectional stretch. This ensures a super comfy, glove like fit every time no matter what size/shape baby is. The nappy also has a trimmer design than a standard Tot and is far less bulky around the waist and hip area.

Snap in booster for extra absorbency - great for night time, car journeys etc.

Easy to use Aplix fastening on super stretchy, stay dry waist tabs so no excuses for dad! The Aplix has also been curved to trim off any corners."

From my own testing, I can vouch for this nappy's amazing absorbency. It's a great nappy for overnight and it dries quickly too. The "technical outer skin" that Tots mention above really does seem to lock in moisture so that the nappy feels dry to the touch on the outside even after 12+ hours in use.

The other thing I really like is the superb fit. It really is superstretchy and looks super comfortable too. The snug fit means you won't get any leaks making this a very reliable nappy.

The design puts all the bulk of the nappy between the legs, so its very slim around the waist and is a good nappy to try if you don't like bulk plus the ability to vary the absorbency and bulk via the snap in booster liner makes for a very versitile nappy.

The only downside? Well it's not the most attractive nappy in the Tots Bots range, but I'm certain that this won't put you off. I see this as being a real "workhorse" nappy. You'll use it at night (because it's so absorbent), when you go out (as it's so leak proof) and as a slim fitting daytime nappy too. This nappy is so much more than a pretty face!
