Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max Review, Giveaway

With two little ones in diapers, I know how important it is to have a diaper I can count on. Sure, I want to save money, but not at the cost of leaks or the comfort of my kids.

Recently, I was given the opportunity to test out the new Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max before they hit store shelves. Starting this month (March 15 is their official launch), they will be available to the public where diapers are sold.

This is what Pampers says about their new Cruisers:
Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max is the brand's first high performance diaper and the biggest innovation for the Pampers brand in the last 25 years. Pampers has invented the Dry Max technology and applied it to the current Swaddlers and Cruisers core, which allows the diaper to be 20 percent thinner than current Pampers Cruisers without sacrificing any performance. This hard-working diaper locks wetness away and is Pampers' driest diaper ever. New Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max have game-changing benefits for mom, baby and the world. 

I received a sample package of the size 4 Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max and tried them out on my 1 and 2 year old toddlers. The first thing I noticed is they seem quite thin, but don't look skimpy like some off brand diapers do. They are adorned with Sesame Street characters and have stretchy tabs that seem durable (at first glance). The inside of the diaper is a light purple color and the lining is quite soft on the skin.

Putting Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max to the test:

My children have two different body types. My 2 year old is tall and lean and my 1 year old still has some baby chub and isn't as tall as his brother. They are both fast movers and active little boys. I noticed that the diaper tabs stretched without breaking and were easy to adjust to just the right fit. I also liked that they were full coverage and went up high enough to help avoid leaks. Throughout the entire week I used these diapers, I only had one leak. I checked and I had not put the diaper on straight so that one was probably my fault. I compared them to a Luvs diaper in size 4 that I had on hand and noticed that the Pampers Cruisers diaper was larger and also covered the babies well. The diapers are not at all bulky under clothing and don't impeded their movement. I like them a lot! Would I buy them? Price is always my major deciding factor so as long as they are competitive in price, I will definitely buy them.
