The Rumparooz Pocket is a top performer in our absorbency tests. It is an easy-to-use cloth product with a soft microfleece lining on the inner side. The Rumparooz comes with two microfiber soakers for customizable absorbency. They offer a quick absorption rate that, in our tests, wicked away moisture and locks liquid away from the baby's skin. The inserts feel dry to the touch even after use. This cloth option has a double gusset for explosive poop containment and four rise and five waist adjustments for a perfect fit as your baby grows.
Unfortunately, pocket diapering products require a little extra work and can feel bulky compared to other types. Adding inserts can boost absorbency, but it will also be harder to fit under clothing. We think that this option runs a little small, reducing its lifespan, but this could also make it ideal for smaller babies. This cloth product has far more benefits than flaws making it one we think parents and babies will love, even overnight.

The Rumparooz Pocket is a top-scoring diaper in our absorbency tests, impressing us with its overall ease of use. The Rumparooz absorbs liquid quickly and does a great job trapping moisture away from the skin. Almost all moisture is wicked away from the baby, and the inserts feel dry to the touch. The two microfiber soakers can work together or separately to achieve the preferred level of absorbency. The inner surface of the cover has a soft microfleece liner throughout. We love the double gusset that helps prevent leaks and blowouts. With four rise adjustments and five for the waist, you can adjust the sizing to fit almost any baby.
Although there is much to admire about the Rumparooz, it is a pocket diaper. Pocket diapers require extra steps to deal with the inserts before and after every diaper change. Also, this diaper can seem excessively bulky, making it difficult to fit under regular-sized clothes. Users frequently note that this diaper runs a bit small, reducing its usage range. However, this may mean it could be a better diaper for smaller or younger babies, possibly replacing newborn-sized products sooner. Despite minor flaws, we believe this diaper has more positives, and it will keep caregivers and babies happy.

The Imagine Baby Pocket Snap  is one of the top-performing cloth diapering options from the products we tested and has one of the lowest prices &#40;win-win&#41;. This product has a 4-layer microfiber insert that soaks up liquid and locks it away like a champ. The soft micro-fleece liner fabric keeps your baby dry and cozy. This product has a larger pocket opening that is easier to stuff and allows for quicker changes than the similar style products we've seen. We like the double row of waist snaps, and the single gusset had no leaking issues in our tests. 
The Imagine Baby can run bulky, but the added bulk translates to more absorbency, which feels like a small price for better leak protection. All pocket options require more prep work before changes as you must stuff in the insert, but the overall performance can make the extra effort worthwhile. The Pocket Snap offers above-average performance at a budget-friendly price, making it a top competitor for any cloth diapering family.

The Imagine Baby Pocket Snap is one of the top-performing diapers in our tests and one of the lower-priced products. This pocket diaper has a four-layer microfiber insert that soaks up liquid and locks it away from the baby's skin and earned a relatively high score in our absorbency tests. The soft micro-fleece fabric lines the entire diaper and does a great job of keeping the baby comfortable and dry. The pocket opening is more expansive than some competition, making it easier to stuff and prepare. It is large enough to allow more than one insert inside to accommodate a heavy wetter or overnight use. We appreciate the double row of waist snaps that keep the diaper in place. This feature also helps to relieve single points of pressure around the tummy. Although it only has a single-leg gusset, we had no problems with leakage.
The Imagine Baby can be bulky, and we wish it came with a smaller insert for younger infants. However, for older babies, this extra bulk means extra absorbency. Without it, the diaper wouldn't be nearly as absorbent, and we feel this is a small price to pay for better absorbency. As with any pocket diaper, you'll need to put in a little more work before a diaper change. You must take the time to stuff the insert, which is the price you pay for performance. The combination of above-average performance and a budget-friendly price tag of the Imagine Baby make it tough to beat.
