Has Anyone Tried Costco, Kirkland, Diapers?
Hi I am just wondering if any moms have tried the Costco, kirkland brand diapers? I just want to know if they measure up to the name brands. I like a lot of the Costco brand, but diapers are too expnsive to buy and try without any knowledge, in my opinion anyways. So if you have tried them please let me know what you think THANKS!!

I've tried the Kirkland diapers ... generally, they're just as good as Huggies, but I've had several of the diapers in the box come untaped while my son was running around which caused a river to flood all over my floor ... which is beige and I can't change it because I'm renting. They aren't bad though, just be prepared for 20-30 of the diapers to have really bad tape on them.

Ive been using diapers from Costco for a few months now and they work good for me. Plus it's a little cheaper to buy them in bulk there rather then 2 boxes of a larger quanity at Walmart. HTH!

I LOVE Kirkland diapers! They are all that I buy for my two boys. I have struggled with my kids peeing through their diapers in the middle of the night no matter what brand, size, style, etc. that I chose and have found that though no diaper keeps it from happening, that the kirkland diapers hold up much better than others. My kids don't pee through them half as often as even Huggies or Pampers. Plus they run just a little bit cheaper than the name brands and the case lasts me three weeks with two boys sharing it, cutting down on shopping trips!

Yes, my son is 2 and I have used the kirkland diapers severl times. If you like huggies, then they are comparable to huggies. The only thing that I noticed is you need to make sure that the elastic on the inside is pulled away from the diaper to prevent leaks.

I did not care for costco diapers, but I did get the CVS brand before and I really like those. They are the best of the cheaper diapers in my book. I had three kids really close together, so I had to cut cost where I could. And after having bad luck with target brand, walgreens brand, costco brand, I was really scared to get the CVS brand (not the playskool brand, hated those too). Hopefully whatever discounted diapers you get work out for you. You know you can order diapers at 1800diapers.com. Those are name brand diapers at a great price and FREE DELIVERY!!! Good luck.

Hi H.-
We use the Kirkland diapers all the time and love them. To me, they are very similar (if not the same) as Huggies. The Sam's Club brand is like Pampers, which we don't like as my daughter leaked out of all the time (both Pampers brand and Sam's).
Watch the price of the diapers at Costco. The last time we bought diapers there it was actually CHEAPER to by the Huggies than the Kirkland ones. The price per case was more for the Huggies, but there were more diapers in the case so the price per diaper was actually less. I mentioned something about it to customer service when I left, so we'll see....

Use them all the time and we love them! We also use the Kirkland formula. We checked with our pediatrician first, and he said it's just like Similac - only you get two cans for $20 instead of one for $24. Anyway, good luck with your shopping sprees!

I agree with you completely! I hate buying a whole box of diapers only to be disappointed with the quality. First let me say that every child's body is different, so what works or doesn't work for me, might be different for your child. However, I did tried Cosco brand diapers about 2 years ago with my daughter. I absolutely hated them! We were over at some friends house and here comes by daughter down the hallway(in Cosco diapers), poop dropping down her leg as she comes. I felt so bad and what a mess it was. Since then I haven't ever bought anything but pampers or huggies. I've been quite leary of off brand diapers since then! Right now though, I'm the process of trying to find something cheaper since my son is now going to be wearing sz 5. A friend gave me a few white cloud diapers from Walmart to try out and it actually hasn't been bad. A friend of mine has also recommended Members Mark from Sams. So that is just my experience. I hope you find something that works well for your child.

I have been using size 3 since my son was big enough for them, and plan to use them until he grows out of them. from what i've read, most every mother who used to buy pampers at costco until they they stopped selling them, turned to kirtland and loves them. us too. good luck!
