leaky pop-in dream dri

Postby litlestar » Wed Feb 24, 2010 4:50 pm

my dream dri has started leaking - not at the legs (unless the elastic as shot and i haven't noticed) but it seems to be at the seam on the underside of the nappy.

i've never tumble dried the covers, only dried on airers near the radiators.

any ideas?

Sometime PUL needs 'resetting' in the tumble dryer. This would be a good first port of call i think :wink:

:oops: I don't have a tumble dryer so I haven't tried it to honest. Just going by advice given for bumgenius that I have seen. I have just checked the label and it does say do not tumble dry or radiator dry. I must admit I dry mine on one of those radiator dryer things and they are fine. Never had a problem with leaking round the stitches either though :-?

Wouldnt tumble...my OH accidentally tumbled one of the Pop-in outers and it went crinkly. Its still fine but I wouldnt risk it as they seem particularly sensitive to heat for some reason.
The stitches havent degraded or anything have they?
