i am thinking about getting mayb 4 AIOs for the diaper bag (really just for my own entertainment. he is still pretty easy to change...) what are the most economical AIOs? i don't want bad ones of course. just the least expensive that still work. anyone use proraps? i have been really happy with my prorap covers and there are some proraos AIOs on ebay now.

You could look at www.cutest-cloth-diapers.com
The aren't that expensive and they're cute. I haven't ordered from her in months, so I don't know if she is taking orders or what, but you start there.
Also, the Bumkins AIO are out there, but I'm just not a fan of them, but they are functional.

RE: cheap AIO
I found Proraps AIOs to work fine. They are plain but inexpensive, and didn't leak on us. I have mixed feelings about Little Lambs - they are so cute and inexpensive, but I have had quite a few leaks with these. Granted, Jennifer has a great return policy, so there is little risk.

Just yesterday i was wondering if I should have ordered some Mom and Me's AYN before I got my stash.
Her AYN stands for All You Need and is an AIO...they look nice on her site.
Edited to say I love her customer service...I know she is slammed with orders and baby on the way , but maybe you can sneek an order in...

RE: cheap AIO
Neve, those look terrific, but I couldn't hide them in a diaper bag! I've heard great things about her nighttime wool cover, in particular.

An AYN will be too bulky in a diaper bag IMHO dont get me worng they are awsome(got one used) but i think they are a bit bulky for my taste. But im a super freak i dont use the same wool cover 2 times unless it has had time to breath so i would have to carry at least 2 wool covers plus the additional bulk that wool does on clothes etc etc etc...and they arent cheap....I have AIOs from Nessas Nappies and i got them for less than 10.00 each. I also had a prorap one and believe the velcro one wouldve worked better than the snap one i had..They are bulky though. But relatively inexpensive. I didnt like the inner fabric of the prorqaps though for some reason i found it quite scratchy when i washed it since its not a Quick Dry it takes very very long to dry and in that proces also crunches up the fabric a bit. My stash is Quick Dry AIOs and CPFs now and im loving every second of it. I just got the honey boy pattern so i can make my own(substitute the fleece for PUL and you got a great AIO)...Also the little lambs ones are right now on sale for 8.00 each and they have been working great for us up until now granted i dont trifold the soaker i double fold it and add a fleece topped doubler.
I love my AIOs cause the hemp is covered with fleece and nothing touches Ari but the fleece. Plus the added bonus of absorbancy and dryness...

I love these! I got the hemp ones, and nary a leak so far. I posted earlier that these have become my favorite CDs. And she always has some instock. I've been very happy with the fitteds, as well. If I ever switch to cloth fulltime, I will probably get the AIOs for daycare.
