I'm not that impressed to be honest, I have always thought I'd prefer poppers as that was the one thing that annoyed me about my BGV3, but it's also what made them totally nursery and grandparent friendly, so I'm not sure I'd be able to replace them with poppers even if I wanted to :roll:

Can't believe the new colours either, Zinnia is my favourite which seems to have gone - might just have to buy a couple of V3s now they are cheap instead! Not going to rush out for a new one to be honest.

great about the snaps. Why not use better elastic in the 1st place, Weenotions elastic seems far better..........

I agree - I don't want to have to change the elastic in my nappies, I want them to last! :roll:

Before you rush off to buy some old brights, read this. Just been posted on the BG FB page

"Hey people, the bright colors are COMING BACK. We haven't disclosed this yet because we don't have a date for when they will be in stock again.

I like to have a date for you before I share info... but, because you need to know.. now you know. :)"

I wondered this too! But I suppose it's still nice to have an easier way to change it. I have 3 BGv2 that need changed (and strip washed before being added to the 2 sz1 LL's :oops: ahem :giggle: )

And I have to say, while prints and 'pretty' nappies are lovely. I do like the look of a plain, crisp cloth bum under a dress *ducks the flames*

Its a weird marketing ploy isnt it! Personally, I've never had an issue with the elastic but I'm beginning to wonder if I will :-?
