120 people entered, with 275 entries. I made a boo-boo and didn’t check the box to make the “favorite item” a mandatory entry on the form. I didn’t even notice since all of you followed my instructions and filled it out! Two 11th hour entries left it blank, which is what made me realize my error. Since it was my mistake, I let it slide. Oops!

Anyway, the winning entry is #74, which is Suki Lotti. Congratulations Suki, I’m emailing you now!

A Year of Fluff Cloth Diapers Diaper Covers Fleece Giveaway Made in the USA Review Sized Diapers WAHM made

Monster Fluff Embroidered Fleece Soaker/Diaper Cover Review and Giveaway Open to the U.S. and Canada (CLOSED 11/6)

>

Long ago and far away, I asked (on Facebook) what you guys would like to see me review, and Monster Fluff was mentioned!  I had found Monster Fluff myself on Hyenacart quite a while ago when searching for monster stuff, but I hadn’t pulled the trigger on a purchase yet! So, I was excited to get to do this review!

my son and the cover

I love monsters but honest to goodness, it’s not just me!  My son grabbed it from me when I opened it, just like he did with my (err…his) ooga diaper!

I received the Archie monster, embroidered on a size medium soaker.  The embroidered soakers retail for $22, and while the size chart doesn’t give weight estimates, the medium fit my 18.5 lb guy just fine.

The soakers are made with 100% polyester anti-pill fleece and each monster averages 14,000 stitches.  The soakers have an additional layer sewn into the wet zone, which also covers the embroidery backing.

Monster Fluff products are made by mom & daughter team Debbie and Amber.  Don’t let the name fool you, they don’t just have monsters.  They have tons of embroidery options available on soakers, shorties, longies and matching sets.

The craftsmanship of the soaker is really amazing.  I turned it inside out and inspected it, and the fleece is cut neatly and sewn impeccably.

The embroidery is clearly done by an embroidery machine, rather than by hand (Can you imagine?  Yikes.  Hand cramp!)  Even so, it takes skill!

The monster was centered and straight on the soaker, and there were no loose threads!

First, I tried the soaker on over the trimmest fitted I have, the Little Beetle Little to Big Diaper.

My son is about 18.5 lbs here and the diaper is on the largest setting.

I didn’t have trouble getting the soaker over the diaper, and it fit very well.  The first time I changed his diaper when I was using the soaker, the fitted was wet on the outside, but the soaker seemed clean.  Gross maybe, but I sniffed it and used it again!  If I were exclusively using fitteds, I would perhaps use 2 soakers per day and air them out between uses, of course washing them if they got smelly or soiled.  Otherwise, I’d just wash them at the end of the day!

Next, I decided to try the soaker over one of my fluffiest, most absorbent fitteds, my Heartland Dreams Fitted.

It wasn’t difficult to get the soaker over the diaper, but I did have to work it a little, it didn’t just slide right on.  Fleece isn’t as stretchy as wool, but it fit really well over both a very trim fitted, and a fluffy one!

The suggested care for Monster Fluff fleece is:  Turn inside out, machine wash warm, delicate cycle. Tumble dry low.  They suggest washing their fleece items with your regular laundry.  Oops.  I saw this after I washed, used and washed it again!  I didn’t turn it inside out and I washed it on the regular cycle with my diapers, so cold, then hot.  I hung it to dry with my shells/covers.  I’ll be more careful in the future!

I think the Monster Fluff soaker is awesome.  Not only is it a well made, very functional soaker, but it’s adorable too!  I’d love to have a custom with longies and a matching shirt!
