I have never tried a flexi but have recently got two stretchy from here and they were as new. I have found them to be pretty good absorbancy wise :D They are nursery nappies :D They do take a while to dry though, but then so did my old bamboozles :D

I prefer the stretchies too. I'm not a huge fan of the outer of the flexi tot. The stretch fits Max like a glove and is soooo squishy :)

I have used the Flexis and really liked them for their fit and absorbency when Max was younger. I tried the old Bamboozles and didn't like them but I would like to try the new Stretchies.

we love our flexi's here. DS is really skinny - so a great fit.
really absorbant
haven't tried a stetchie yet - but did wash & dry one for a friend (her DD leaked whilst here and sh'ed forgotton wetbag so I put in my bucket!) - she tumbles, but I line dry - and the stretchie took sooooooo long to dry indoors.
twice the length of time as my bamboozles

i have 10 flexitots and love them! only thing i would change is i'd have got them in a size 1, i got them in a size 2 see. they are so much better than the stretchy ones, i found the stretchy quite bad really all round, whereas the flexitots seem to just go on forever. i really want to add some size 1's to my stash, i have tried most of the tots range of nappies but was very let down in the stretchy one. keep checking bargainbots on ebay for great prices on the tots range.x
