Washing BumGenius Diapers

Here are some Tips for Washing the 4.0 One-Size Diaper Directly from BumGenius

Simple Wash Routine

Remember, wash at least every other day and rotate your stash evenly.
  • Wash once in cold water with no more than 1/4 cup detergent.
  • Wash once in warm or hot water with no more than 1/4 cup detergent. Optionally (and only occasionally), add 1/4 cup of bleach to this cycle.
  • Add an extra rinse to remove any lingering detergent in the diapers.
  • Tumble dry on the medium setting.

    What detergent can I use?
    You should only use detergents that are free of dyes, enzymes, perfumes, whiteners and brighteners. Using detergents containing these ingredients will cause damage to your diaper including elastic failure and leaking. Recommended detergents include: BumGenius Diaper Detergent, Country Save, Allen's Naturally, Mountain Green, Planet Ultra, Arm & Hammer for Sensitive Skin, Purex Free & Clear, and Sun Free.

    What should I avoid?
    Do not use extra additives in your wash (like baking soda or vinegar). These ingredients are unnecessary and will cause problems in your diapers. Do not use fabric softeners.

    My Tabs aren't as Sticky as I'd like
    Wash your diaper and then dry it in the dryer on medium heat. Be sure to let the diaper cool completely before using. This causes the hooks to recontract and become "sticky" again.

    "What an absolute delight it was to stumble across your website and blog this afternoon. I was ecstatic to find all of your "green" (safe!) products and your blog. I am 17 weeks pregnant with my first baby and have been a bit overwhelmed trying to sort through the insane amount of baby stuff in the world to find things that are safe and practical."  Arika - Denver, CO  More testimonials
