These super absorbent cloth diapers are tops for your baby's bottom. Made out of 100% super soft heavyweight cotton.  I think that these prefold diapers are as close to perfection as you can get. Perfect to use with diaper pins or a Snappi. Great folded inside Velcro closing covers! This diaper is diaper-service quality, designed to survive an industrial washing machine - for hundreds of washings! They can last for several years (and kids) in your home washing machine.

Use with Prorap Classic, Bumkins, Pocket Diapers,Bummis Original or Bummis Super diaper wraps. If you pin your prefolds or use a Snappi - try the Bummis pant. Click here to see how to use these diapers with a velcro closing cover.

They come to you looking very stiff and flat. You need to wash and dry them at least twice before using them.  They will undergo a transformation and quilt up into thick, soft and very absorbent diapers. That quilty look is created by the way that the diaper shrinks when dried. Diapers dried only on a line will not get the same look as the ones that are dried in a dryer. See how much thicker they are than store bought DSQ Diapers.

The style of the diaper refers to the number of layers in the diaper. A 4x8x4 style diaper has 8 layers of fabric prefolded and sewn in the middle and 4 layers fabric folded and sewn on the sides. Made in China.
Prefold diapers need to be soaked and/or washed in hot or warm water in order for them to absorb properly. When you are getting them set up, you can wash them with your regular loads of laundry if you are not using fabric softeners. Just wash them separately before using them. Each time that they are washed, use a little detergent. They need to be dried in the dryer after each wash load. If you have a smaller capacity washer, don't overload it with diapers when you are getting them set up, they need some room to agitate. All prefold diapers shrink after washing. The amount of shrinkage may vary from batch to batch.


Which size should you buy? 

  • Smaller newborns can use the Preemie diapers.
  • For most newborns, either the 4x8x4 newborn or the 4x6x4 regular diapers. The newborn size diapers are easier to fit into newborn covers. The 4x6x4 regular diapers will fit into newborn covers and can be used until your baby is potty trained. You may find that the 4x6x4 regular diapers look bulky until your baby is a few months old. You may have to add washable liners as your baby gets older for extra absorbency. The preemie diaper are an easy fit into a newborn cover, but they will need a liner for more absorbency in just a few weeks.
  • For babies older than 4 months, either the 4x6x4 regular or 4x8x4 premium. If your baby is a heavy wetter or if you are looking for a nighttime diaper get the 4x8x4 premium diapers. The 4x6x4 diapers will give you a slightly trimmer look. For older babies, I think that the 4x6x4 regular diaper is great for daytime and the 4x8x4 premium diaper is great for nighttime.
  • The toddler diapers are best only for toddlers and young children.  Because they are so large and thick, the toddler diapers will only fit into extra large, toddler size and up covers.

Will a heavier diaper really absorb more?

To prevent moisture transfer a cover is required with this diaper.

We want cloth diapering to be affordable!


We calculate our shipping rates by weight and destination. Prefolds are heavy and the shipping cost can really add up, especially for those shipping to a different coast. For some orders we can package your order in a Postal Service Flat Rate Box or their Large Flat Rate Box.
If you have ordered prefolds and only a few other small items that will fit into a Flat Rate Box our shopping cart will show you a "Prefold Saver" shipping option that will save you some money over our Standard Rate which only calculates weight/distance.
If you live closer to us, you may not see this option since your rate by weight is less expensive than the Flat Rate Boxes.

Does not qualify for free shipping. A $2.50 charge will be added to your shipping charges for each dozen diapers ordered.

I used these diapers on my kids from when they were about 5 months old until they were potty trained. They lasted through three kids and are now happily used by my husband for cleaning his car.

I tried the regular dsq diapers at first, but found that these fit into most covers that I had better when my baby was a newborn. Very flat when they came, but they fluffed up well after washing.

Author: marie@...

I thouhght I'd like AIO's, and have a few of these forbackup, but I like these better! Theey are much more absorbent, and with most covers seem to fit better. And with sharp pins, or a velcro (no pin) cover, they are much easier to use than I expected.

Author: jstaraitis@...

This is a must have for every new Mom, even if you're using disposables! Not only are they great inside Fuzzi Bunz and Bummi wraps, but also they are wonderful burp cloths. They are so-o-o soft and get even better wash after wash!

Author: KyleTeddy@...

I use these prefolds with my Bummis Super Whisper Wraps. The prefolds soften up quite a bit after laundering. I was a little scared when they arrived completely flat-looking, but they fluffed right up. These are much better than the Gerber brand prefolds which I have also tried - for some reason, the stains come out of these prefolds much easier.

After trying every different kind of cloth diaper, these are one of my favorites because of their absorbancy, ease of cleaning, and they are very versatile.

My diapers measure differently than the ones that I bought last time. Did you send me the correct diapers?

Garden DiapersJuly 9, 2011

Diaper Service Diapers can vary quite a bit in dimensional size. When we buy them, it is based on how much the diapers weigh per dozen. The DSQ manufacturers are working to get a certain weight of diaper, so you may get diapers that are noticeably longer or shorter than the ones you have used before. The weight and absorbency should be very similar.
