I purchased this cover and some thirsties duo inserts. They don't seem to go together. Does the duo insert just lay in the cover? No way to secure it

Yes. There's a little flap in the front you can tuck the insert under, but other than that, they just lay in there.

mmm, no, the insert are for those cloth diapers that have pockets. Watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r15KaJmssKM this is where I learned a lot. No affiliation with the girl in the video, I don't know her, but I like the video. If you watch at minute 01:55, then after minute 09:40, you will know what I mean. The one we both have is designed to be re-used several times, while the ones with pockets you use inserts then put the whole thing in the wash. What you need with these are prefolds. Either buy them (some are really bulky, I regret buying them) or make your own. ANy cotton material should work. mmm, no, the insert are for those cloth diapers that have pockets.

It just lies inside the cover. The cover can be used over prefolds or with Flip inserts. I use it with Nickis prefold in large and it's very good. My LO is 7.5 months and it just fits her well. She's 18lbs. I think the duo inserts can be used for them.

I would refer to the Thirsties website for specific info, but you could always try laying the insert inside of the cover and see how it works. I use my cover with fitted diapers and prefolds with a snappi. The covers do a really good job of holding moisture inside.

I had this problem and just decided to screw the cover, the tailpiece which is supposed up slide on is what you are referring to I assume. Mine would just fall off because it wasn't crimped properly. You can try using pliers to adjust the edges of both the cover and the base if its important to you.

It's just like the Econobum or Flip covers - you can use either a prefold or an insert inside of it. We found that the Thirsties covers were really great for when our baby was very small, because they have extra coverage around the leg holes. But, he's already grown out of them (by 7 months).

Mine works fine. It took me a bit to get it to line up right, but then it seemed fine. If I remember correctly (I bought it for my mom and she lives far away so I can't check it) you have to clip it on. You slide it in, but then you latch it to secure it in place. Just keep messing with it. You will get it.

not properly, it wouldn't snap on like the other one i had. looks like a manufacturing error. The fit it Ok but one push from the top part of the cover and its off.

The cover does fit but not very well. I was expecting the cover to fit a little tighter than it does. I use it but the cover will move around. I hope this answers some of your questions

I was about to post this question as well. I was hoping it would get a reply by now, but apparently it hasn't. Did you get this cover still?

It's not easy to get it, is it? Without instructions what we did was put the cover on top (after threading the string through the holes) and then tied the string tight so it stayed. I was not happy with the cover and have since tossed it...it sagged in the middle and trapped rainwater that would turn muddy and it was impossible to remove the cover without getting muddy water in the pool. The cover design needs improvement. Good luck.

I have both inserts and cover for best bottom & buttons .. The large insert for the best bottom doesn't snap too well on the buttons, also the BB insert is larger than the buttons . Hope this helps (:

I personally used both the duo wrap and diaper covers do not come with inserts, the cover has a smaller weight range than the duo wrap because the duo wrap has bottons (as well as the Velcro) to make it bigger as you need it

Ive covered mine with a cover I bought for like 20 dollars on amazon. Obviously wait till its completely cool before covering it. The Covers helped so far !

I bought mine a few months ago and I always keep it in the cover and I never had an issue. I hope that was helpful.

OK - let me try to answer this (without pictures:-) Slide the "cover" back to show the end of the steel tube. Try to align both tube ends together, this is tough, they wiggle and are somewhat off center to each other (if they are kind of aligned it will work). Slide the "cover" back over both ends of the steel tube. The cover will be around both tubes holding them together. This is a really tight fit.

Yes. I haven't used the covers much, but I have them, and I checked one, and it seems very tight. Maybe even turn it upside down tight.

Not sure if you can visualize this, but I folded the cover insert in half, but also folded the thin spine section inward to get it to fit (so the actual face of the cover would fit, but not with any of the spine part sticking out).

Cannot help here. Bummer. I do not use that, so cannot tell. Can say the cover fits pretty snugly.

I have the same issue and have not been able to find a cover anywhere. Please let me know if you find one.
