Pampers Cruisers Vs. Baby Dry-- Huggies Supreme Vs. Regular

My 2 year old and my 9 month old wear the same size diapers and my husband and I have found that Pampers fit better. There isn't much difference between between the regular pampers and the cruisers other than the cruisers are made for babies when they start moving, however, the regular pampers work just fine. Huggies are good too, but are generally more expensive ... especially the huggies supreme.

Hi Lisa, I've tried them all and I prefer the huggies supreme over them all. I didn't particularly like the fasteners on the pampers diapers. I used Huggies Sup. with my first son who is three and my 10 month old has used them since birth.

I've found that I like the Target brand of diapers just as well as the pampers ones. They're about $10 for 80 of the size 3 - about 1/2 the price of the pampers and they work just as well if not better.

Hi Lisa,

Really it all depends on what works for your baby. My son wore Pampers Baby Dry and they were great, Huggies didn't work for him, he would leak BIG TIME! But now my daughter uses Huggies, either Supreme or Regular (all depends on what's on sale or what coupon I have :) or if I go to Costco to buy the big box). She totally leaks when she wears Pampers. So I would have to disagree with anyone telling you to go with one over the other, I say sign up on Pampers.com and Huggies.com and use the samples they send you and see what works best for you. Also, both Costco and Sams Club have their own brand of diapers. Costco's didn't work for us, I thought they were cheaply made and the adhesive tags ripped more times than I would have liked, but some people swear by them and they are very cost wise :) Plus if you use a few and don't like them, Costco will take them back and refund you your money, which is what we did.
Good Luck and just remember, do what works for you baby :)

Personally, Pampers have always leaked on all 4 of my kids. The best buy for your money I think is Luvs. The cheap brands are just that, cheap. Huggies is more, but it doesn't do anything that Luvs doesn't, granted, Luvs isn't a whole lot cheaper, but it add up over the course of a couple of years. Good luck!

I used pamper cruisers with my first daughter and they were great but with my second pampers didnt seem as good as they used to be and I just tried huggies and I hate them for her, too baggy on her!! and she smells worse in them. I prefer Luvs they are the best and cheaper, never had a blowout So i will continue with Luvs

It depends on the kid. I have two boys and the ONLY diaper that they did not leak through were pampers. The cruisers are good when they're crawling and just learning to walk since it does eliminate the waddle a bit and doesn't interfere with their walking straight. We tried all the others and they all leaked with my boys, who were chunky babies. Other diapers might work well for your kids, so I would try getting small packs of a few different kinds until you find the one that is best for your child. Be weary of the off-brand ones only because some of them use material that is not very breathable and my kids actually got rashes from that. Pampers are almost like women's pads, they are very breathable. Good luck!

Ive always preferred pampers but if your looking for cost efficiency Target brand diapers are very cheap and work just as well as pampers do.

That is so funny! My daughter fits the pampers perfect, but my nephews only fit in Huggies! I think there is more "package" room for boys in Huggies.

I've always used the pamper bady dry diapers, I love them. I did buy 1 package of huggies and hated them. Stick to the pampers.

Hi Lisa,
You know I use huggies just because we usually get them as costco....I haven't tried pampers in awhile. My son is also average. Sometimes he leaks but only if his diaper is REALLY soaked. I think I have noticed that the supreme vs. the regular huggies are actually the same price. Same with the pampers. Maybe I am crazy or there is not as many in the pkg. and I just am not paying attention. I do not notice a difference in quality between the two. I have been contemplating trying LUVS b/c they are less expensive but I don't know any moms who use them....I think it really depends on the shape of your child. Good luck.

My daughter used Huggies regular and never leaked. My nephew couldn't use huggies had to use pampers. I don't think there is much difference in regular compared to supreme. Save your $ and use it towards the college fund or family trip.

i've always preferred pampers baby dry. i tried other brands but they still couldn't compare to pampers. i've noticed that the cruisers have less diapers in a bag than the baby dry also. so financially speaking, i've stuck to the latter because i wanted more bang for my buck. i hope this helps.

I have a 2 year old boy who has a tiny bottom half. I use Costco's Kirkland brand exclusively. I have tried all the premium brands and still prefer Kirkland. The only thing Kirkland doesn't have is the powdery scent the Pampers have. One time I bought Huggies because at Costco the unit price was actually cheaper than Kirkland that day. I totally regretted it and after I finished the box I went right back to Kirkland.

I've used both cruisers and baby dry. Pampers did a major improvement on their baby dry over a year ago and they fit snuggly around the waist now. My son is very thin and that was the issue I have having. Now with both cruisers and baby dry I get no leaks. I would save your money and purchase baby dry.

I think they are worth the little bit extra, honestly. Esp if you have a super soaker like my boy. My kids fit into diapers the same way as yours, my girlie was better in Pampers but I've switched to the Huggies supreme for my son who's a chunk. He was having a lot of blowouts in the regular Pampers.

Okay, four kids...oldest is 18, youngest is 5. I have tried every other brand out there and ALWAYS go back to Luvs. Do NOT know why I kept trying the others. None of them worked for me like Luvs. For me anyway, Huggies were horrendous. You wouldn't believe all the changes in the almost two decades I bought diapers (and now nite pants). Through it all, I would always go back to Luvs. Hey...maybe I should try out for some comercial. lol HTH

I've tried all the different diapers on the market. I'm always looking for a bargain! I found with my son, that some of the cheaper brands like the Kroger Comforts work just as well as the expensive brands in terms of leakage, but do not fit around his waist as well. In terms of the expensive brands, I prefer Pampers Cruisers or Pampers Baby Dry. They seem more flexible and comfortable for my son than the Huggies.

Just my 2 cents,

Hands down - LUVS

I have tried every diaper with my kids and Luvs was the best price and they always fit well and stayed dry.

It varies from child to child a good deal, I believe. I really dislike both huggies supreme and pampers cruisers, as they both leave a lot of lint on my son (2). I second Luvs.. The bearhug flex ones have stretchy tabs like Pampers baby Dry (which are also favored in my home)... and those are the only two my son doesn't leak through.
