Guest Post:  mama{love} Miny Moe Review

8/17/2013

Thank you to Lauren of mama{love} for this great post and review! You can check out her profile at the end of the post :) ~Heather

I had heard about diaper samplers, but never actually tried one, so I was super excited to receive a Size 3 sampler from Miny Moe in the mail this month. We have always been a Pampers family, for both my son and my daughter. Besides the occasional pee-through overnight, we had no complaints, but I was looking forward to seeing what else was out there. The Miny Moe package included 6 individually-wrapped samples of 5 different brands of diapers: Pampers, Huggies, Luvs, The Honest Company, Target "Up & Up", & Walmart "Parent's Choice" in my daughter's size: 3. A score card was also included to rate each brand's price, softness, fit/absorbency, design and eco-friendliness, which I thought made the whole process so fun.

Each day I tried a different brand on my product tester, Harper, 14 months. At the end of each day, I put our rankings on the card and in the end we actually decided to stay with our original choice, Pampers Cruisers. Across the board they were the best for us in all of the categories minus eco-friendliness and cuteness/design. I loved the look of The Honest Company diapers - cute anchors over cartoon characters are a great complement to any baby outfit, but any mom knows function wins over fashion.

Why it's a mama{love}:

1. When you're a first-time mom you usually buy the diapers other moms or experts tell you to buy. The sampler lets you decide for yourself. Every baby's needs are different based on their gender, size, activity level, etc. Why not try some on first? 

2. The Miny Moe sampler saves moms money in the long run. The largest expense beyond childcare is disposable diapering. Testing the product prior to investing in mass quantities avoids spending money on the wrong brand. You may find that the Target brand does just as good of a job as Pampers, but saves you a good amount per diaper. 

3. It's fun! Use your baby as a "product tester" and track your observations with the scorecard.

4. If you like the sampler idea, Miny Moe also offers nursing pad samplers for breastfeeding moms. Choosing the best nursing pad for you can be just as essential as choosing the best diaper for your baby.

5. The sampler is a great shower gift for expectant moms, especially the NB/Size 1 combo sampler. Moms will get enough clothes. This is a unique gift that they can really use to educate themselves.
