Product Description
Pack of 3 (purple, white, mint green)
The Snappi® is a safer, more reliable, EASY to use fastener for cloth diapers that replaces the nasty diaper pins. The stretchable non-toxic Snappi® hooks into the diaper material to make a strong closure. They work best with diapers that have a loose enough weave for the Snappi® to hook into. (Snappi® terry cloth diapers, cotton pre-folds, and others) Note they do not work well with flannel or other tightly woven diapers.
How to use your Snappi®:
To improve elasticity, stretch your Snappi® fastener a few times before use.
Step 1: Hook left
Step 2: Stretch across and hook right
Step 3: Stretch down and hook center
The Snappi® should go from a "T" shape to a "Y" shape when stretched properly.
Warning: Always use a cover over a Snappi fastener. Keep out of children's reach when not in use. Do not use a Snappi fastener on toddlers that have the ability to undo or take off their cover/diaper/clothes. Do not use your Snappi for longer than 6 months. Not UV resistant - exposure to the sun can reduce the effectiveness of the Snappi.
CAUTION: Any tear in the Snappi can lead to separation of a piece, presenting a possible choking hazard. Inspect the Snappi before each use and discontinue using immediately if there is any sign of cracking, tearing, breakage or wear of the teeth or any other parts. Do not cut a Snappi as this may cause tearing.

 The Best Way to Fasten Cloth Diapers August 31, 2010
Bonnie Taylor (Missoula, MT United States)
Snappi Fasteners are awesome! Every time someone sees me using them on our son's cloth prefolds, they comment what a neat idea they are, and how much easier they are than pins. They last a long time and we've never had one come loose. Instead of buying expensive, prefitted cloth diapers, just buy prefolds and use Snappis. It's just as easy to fasten them, and WAY cheaper!

the ultimate must have for a cloth diapering family!! No more pins to worry about and super easy. (especially on a squirmy, wiggly little one!)
Very useful for prefolds July 30, 2010

These little gadgets make cloth diapering with prefolds or flats so much easier. Changing a diaper using one of these is just as quick as changing a disposable once you get the hang of it. I use BabyKicks hemp pre-folds and these grip the material very well. Just a few things I'll point out, first emphasizing these are minor issues and I do recommend these to mamas who can't afford fancy pocket diapers but still want ease of use.
1. They are sharper than you would expect. They always seemed so soft and benign, until one day I caught the teeth on my finger during a diaper change- Ouch! It bled. However, this is much less likely to happen than with pins.
2. I do not recommend these for toddlers. My daughter is exceptionally bright for her age, and could unfasten a disposable or velcro pocket diaper by 4 months old. At 7 months old, she can easily unfasten a Snappi, as well as the velcro diaper covers, so we just have a rule in the house that she must ALWAYS have shorts or bloomers over her diaper. I don't believe this is at all a flaw in the product, I just have a very mischievous, bright little girl. But once your child gets to that diaper-removing stage, whenever that may be, these don't stand a chance against those wandering fingers.
Other than that, we love our Snappis. They are easy to wash, easy to use and take the hard work out of cloth diapering.
Good idea; Bad sizing July 20, 2010

I tried these for my grandson. They're great but the size 1 which says to 18 months doesn't fit my 4 month old (17 lb.) grandson. If they did, I would be quite happy. I believe there is a toddler size but I haven't been able to find it online.
My Husband "This is the best diaper invention EVER!" July 10, 2010
Katherine M. Lloyd
The velcro closures on our BumGenius are a bit worn and our toddler LOVES to take her diapers off, which is mostly fine... except in bed when the sheets need constant changing!
These snappis are great! I was worried they might mar the fabric of the diapers but they don't seem to at all.
It's summertime and baby loves to run around with as little clothing as possible, Snappis to the rescue!!
