Thanks Mama is a family owned cloth diaper and natural parenting store based in Boston. A lot of the items that they sell, they also own and use in their own family. Thanks Mama offers a wide variety of cloth diapering and natural parenting items as well as toys, baby gear, and even furniture.
Thanks Mama graciously sent me a Tots Bots Easy Fit diaper to review. I have wanted to try a Tots Bots for a long time and I wasn’t disappointed. The Easy Fit is a one size all in one diaper with a snap down rise and a hook & loop closure. At this time the Easy Fit only comes in H&L but is coming out with a snap option very soon.

The insert is what I would call a tongue style. The “tongue” can be tucked into the pocket opening and will come out in the wash. Just take the diaper off and throw it in your wet bag or pail. No need to unstuff it

The inside lining is made up of two layers. One layer is rayon from bamboo and is super soft. The second layer is microfiber. This creates a very absorbent yet very trim diaper. We didn’t add any extra absorbency and haven’t had any leaks yet this is the trimmest diaper in my stash by quite a bit. It’s easily as trim as a disposable diaper.
Hardly any bulk in the bum
I am a snaps fan but this hook & loop is great! K-Dub tugs at the at the front of his diapers and this didn’t come loose at all. The laundry tabs are fabulous and stayed stuck in the wash. This photo was taken the last time he wore the diaper and look how new the hook & loop looks after being washed a few times! No fraying or fuzzies because is stays stuck and doesn’t fold up to catch little lint balls along the way. This diaper would be a perfect choice for daycares since they are easy to use and maintain and won’t look ratty after a few washes.
- Very soft against baby’s skin
- Super trim yet absorbent
- Great colors and prints
- High quality hook & loop
- Very easy to use
- Daycare friendly
- Dad friendly!
This is a fantastic diaper that lives up to everything that I’ve ever heard about it. The only negative that I have to say is that the bamboo lining holds stains more than microfleece or other types of linings, but this is true of all of the natural fiber diapers that I own. The fact that a snaps version is coming out very soon is a great option.

I’ve never seen a “tongue” design like that before! I’d love to try it.
I like the selection of items in their store, especially the Sustainablebabish bamboo fleece diaper.
I love my Tots Bots! I have two and they are nice and very trim!
The Easy Fit is one of only a couple diapers I have been dying to try – love the planet print too!
i can’t wait to try out the tot bots tiny fit on my little guy when he comes in june. So far based just on e design and prepping, it’s my favorite newborn dipe!
I have always wanted to try the Bummis Easy fit… i also think the tiny fit looks great! I have not gotten around to trying one yet… have to wait till i can convince hubby to let me buy another diaper… or if i win one 🙂
I’ve wanted to try Tots Bots for a while, but this is the first time I’ve seen it in snaps. I really want it now.
I love that Tots Bots is now doing snaps and have new prints! They are such great diapers!
Love a pocket style you don’t have to unstuff before washing! I would love to try these.
I love how they have baby carriers and of course many different cloth diapers:-)
I love Tots Bots, one of mine (and the hubby’s) favorite diapers!
I have always wanted to try a Tots Bots! The tongue insert looks really intriguing and the hook and loop looks super sturdy! I would be really interested to see how tiny of a little one this diaper would fit on!
ahh… i want to try tots bots someday. i love the look of them! newborn on the way means it’s as good a time as any! : )
Thank you for the giveaway!
I’ve heard so many good things about this diaper! I’d really like to try it.
I love that the tongue style inserts that come out in the wash. I haven’t tried them yet, but I’m sure interested!
This diaper looks great! It’s nice to hear how strong the velcro is.
I love that they carry baby carriers! The totbots is one diaper I have heard great things about. It is definitely something I would love to try. Love the strong velcro too
I love that you don’t have to un-stuff it before you throw in the washer. Thanks for the review!
I really want to try a Tots Bots especially before the new styles come out. I’m not as excited about the new style b/c I’m not a fan of the minky lining.
I really want to try a Tots Bots. I love their prints and I’ve heard that their aplix is really well made. That’s great b/c normally I’m not a fan of aplix.
I haven’t seen hook and loop style before. Looks interesting! I’ve come to hate velcro – whenever grandma changes diapers, she forgets to press the velcro together, and it always ends up ripping other diapers in the wash to shreds. Boo!
The Tots Bots look very well designed, the prints are adorable and the training pants look really well made, too! (dad-friendly…ha!)
That “tongue” design is ingenious! And there is SO MUCH variety at Thanks Mama!
I have one Tots Bots and love it! I’m excited to try out the new one — and their newborn for Baby #2 due in July 🙂
I’ve heard about Tots Bots Easy Fit but no real information on them. Great review! I really like this idea of not having to unstuff the diaper. I have yet to use a pocket diaper so this feature is a plus for me. I also really like how the aplix matched the diaper. I know it isn’t a big deal, but it is still a plus for me. 🙂
You had me at ‘no unstuffing’! 🙂
like the fact that this diaper is like a AIO and a pocket diaper at the same time!
I really like the Tots Bots design. Plus the fact that there is no need to unstuff is definitely a plus in my opinion. They come in so many cute prints too!
My sister and brother-in-law live in Brookline! When they have a baby they’ll have to buy their CDs from Thanks Mama. :o)
No need to unstuff, that’s pretty fantastic!
That looks like a great diaper and looks like a great store – I’m going to have to go visit.
I have one tot bots easy fit and I LOVE it! It’s so trim and absorbs so well! I’d love to win more!
tots bots is on my “must try” list. i typically prefer snaps as well, but i have heard many great thigns about tots bots aplix. i’ve only ever had one other diaper with the “tongue” style insert, and i hated it but the pocket was very narrow so it was hard to stuff…these pockets look wide enough for it to not be an issue.
That diaper seems to fit your son great! 🙂 I think I want one for my little girl.
I had never tried to the Tots Bots because I didn’t know anyone who had used that brand before, your review intrigues me enough to try it! I am glad they’re coming out with snaps though, my LO loves to pull at aplix. But I think I might try them anyway, they look really cute!
i love tot bots.. they are awesome. nice review mama.
I love that these don’t have to be unstuffed. One less thing to do!
Wow they do look super trim I love that! Looks like a good diaper to try out
Love how trim these are!
Wow I love the variety of items you can purchase!
I have been wanting to try to Tots Bots aplix. I’ve heard it is one of the best.
I like the color of that KaWaii Baby Bamboo Minky
The tots bots diaper looks really nice and trim. The design looks really nice too. I have heard good things about this diaper, and would love to have one! Thanks for a great giveaway.
These are wonderful diapers. I’m so excited to see what the new minky ones are going to be like!
I’m so excited about the new tots bots that are coming out. The prints are so cute – how awesome of Thanks Mama to sponsor one
I really like how the tongue comes out in the wash!
want to try the kawaii bamboo minkey!
Their prints are so adorable! It’s been added to my must get list!
I love Thanks Mama!!
I love all your products, specially the plan toys creative blocks!
I really like that this AIO diaper has a pocket so that I can add extra absorbency!
I love that the Tots Bots Easy Fit diaper includes bamboo! I am starting to really like bamboo and would love to try one of their diapers!
I’m so glad you said this is a really trim diaper. I got one as a gift and it looks so nice and trim, and I really want to have some trim diapers in my stash!
