I've seen this same diaper with either 3 or 2 snaps in the front. Does this one have 2 or 3 snaps? Any pros to snaps vs velcro?

There are two snaps on each side. But they are only in a single row. So they go horizontally they are not vertical. There are rise snap so you can adjust for a smaller or larger babies and there's two settings but three snaps vertically. As to the Velcro versus snaps: for ease of use I always find myself grabbing Velcro first. It just is so much easier to get the perfect fit, and it's just easy. Except you do have to remember to use the laundry tabs when they get yucky so that means when they have poop on them and you want to just put it in your diaper bin you have to remember to fold the tabs and which kind of sucks, and my husband always forgets. Another downside to the Velcro is they really will not last as long as snaps. I have not looked into it but there's a lot of videos on how to supposedly, easily, repair the Velcro. I have repaired elastic on my diapers and it's pretty straightforward so that should be similar. That being said I prefer to buy snaps, with the hopes that they will last longer. On some of our diapers I've noticed even after only two months of use, and using the laundry tabs, that the Velcro just isn't the same. that worries me. With my first child we got by with only snaps and it was just fine. Hope that helps!

Just checked the diaper. There are three snaps on each side of snaps at the base. Ten snap up along the top. Two snaps on the tabs. We've been using them pretty hard for eight months only had to replace a few of them. We are still in size one.

The ones we have have two snaps on the tabs and several (I wanna say six but I'm not sure and not near one) on the front to allow for a good fit. We prefer the snaps as our little one quickly learned how velcro works. He likes to "help" with the diaper, and so far he can't undo the snaps.

This diaper cover has two snaps on each tab. The front of the diaper has two rise settings and each rise has three snaps. As far as velcro, i havent tried it with this brand, but i have tried it with two other brands. I do not like velcro. It wears out over time and if it becomes unfasted in the wash it snags onto things and can really mess other diapers up. Hope this helps.

This isn't the type of diaper that gets inserts, like a pocket diaper, this is just a cover. It would go over a prefold or something similar. Nothing but the cover is included.

Some people have said that the snaps will pop open, I have cut a slot between the two snaps as wide as a belt loop, the snaps go on either side of the belt loop. I have not had any problem with it opening up and it doesn't slide around on your belt. And I wear it everyday.

There is no velcro :) The front flap secures by way of a hook/latch, while the smaller pocket flap (located underneath the large front flap) secures with two metal snaps.

No ponchos have male and female snaps along each side. If you connected a male snap of poncho 1 with the female snap of poncho 2 the female snap of poncho 1 would be separated by the connection from snapping in to the male snap of poncho 2. Why not just buy a tarp?

Are you just trying to make the disposable diapers "cute"??? Because that seems like a wast of money to me. You can get outfits that come with covers. I'm not sure why you would want to use it over a disposable. It works great with prefolds and cloth inserts though! I have two and they've been GREAT!

There is a very small white piece with buttons at the ends and you snap them when you wrap it around the baby. Really great! Can't get in the way of being a burp cloth and super easy to snap on the baby if you want to use it as a bib!

I've bought three..two in 2009 and one in 2012. Only one bought in 2009 has the snap closures. The last one I bought - August 26, 2012 - has Velcro. I don't know know what they're shipping now, but I would imagine Velcro.

I like the Snappy Fasteners http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=snappy%20diaper%20fasteners. The best part is that you can change them in the dark by feel alone. Just don't pull them too tight, or they can hurt the diapers after a while.

Yes. The pic on Amazon must be an old one, it shows snaps. On mine, the web wraps around the top & bottom and has velcro to hold it on.

The velcro makes it easy to open and close. I always left the very bottom closed so it would stay attached and open the rest of it to easily get to my baby. Hope that helps!

To be honest, I thought the same thing and bought some myself, but never used them. I think you use them on the insert and then put the cover on? Never tried it that way. I do use the snappies on the other cloth diapers we have from our second child.

You have to wash the prefolds every time. You can get several diaper changes out of a cover, until you get a major poo. The rule of thumb is 3 or 4 prefolds for every cover. PS The econobum prefolds are my favorite so far. The cover is so-so.

Here's a link to a video that explains how the rise snaps work. One Size Cloth Diapers- How Should They Fit?: http://youtu.be/tSg9RS7OoF0You have to adjust the rise. The last three rows of snaps are for adjusting the rise. For a one month old the smallest rise setting should be used. So that means the first row and third row should meet together.Also, I found these diapers to be sort of big on my one month old but now a couple of weeks later, they fit better. They're just so little when they are newborns. If you still don't like the way the diaper fits, you could get some newborn cloth diapers. I never got the newborn cloth diapers because they grow so quickly. My son wears these diapers just fine now. Here's a link to a video that explains how the rise snaps work.

It comes with one insert per diaper, that is enough for a new born maybe but if you have a heavy wetter I would look at buying additional inserts. I use two for my 16 mo old during the day and 3 inserts at night. But when he was little I used 1 during the day and 2 at night.

both velcro and snap. they are the same strap, neither or both. fairly easy to unsnap, I do it with my thumb every time.

Personally I like snaps better because Velcro tends to pick up any and all lint and eventually looses its staying closed power.
