  • kushies review

    I wasnt sure about this brand of cloth nappy because ive only always used applecheeks and itti bitti. Quality was great. Theyre very simple to use and nice and absorbent for my heavy wetter. I would definitely purchse more cushies and recommend to other mamas looking into trying cloth nappies

  • Cheaper, no leakage and good for baby's skin

    We've used multi-fit mcns from the start with my son and Kushies are one of the brands we use. Multi-fits are so cheap in the long run, we spent less than $300 to see us through to toilet training. The nappies look cute, we never have a problem with nappy rash as the baby's skin can breathe and washing is easy once you get the hang of it. Another benefit is that we have never had a pooh explosion or leak, whereas friends who use disposables seem to get that happen quite regularly. I'd definitely use Kushies again and recommend them!

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE

    I had never used anything but disposable nappies and thought they were far easier and much more convenient to use than cloth nappies, but was actually given one of these in a hamper at my baby shower, and one day used it on a whim.. and have never looked back, just as easy and convenient as a disposable, baby has never had any nappy rash (that is why I chose disposables originally)

    Plus they have super cute designs. Super absorbent and leak free!

  • We moved house lucky my mail was redirected!

    The nappy is a little bit tight on my 21month old daughter the next size up would have been perfect.

    Im loving the nappy and liners though, its good that these can be used in a dryer as i noticed that depending on the weather they take a little bit longer to dry due to the inbuilt liner which i think is awesome, i like the fact that it already has the waterproof cover and they are so soft on our little girls bum must be because they are organic!

    The nappy liners are great too but we live on a property and can not flush these into the septic tank which i really wanted to try so we went to a friend house in town just to see how they went being flushed..so much easier!

    I would purchase more of these nappies they are one of the best cloth nappies ive used so far and it came in handy when i ran out of disposables and living out of town it saved me from a huge mess while we went to buy some nappies!

    Kushies in the bush!!

    Highly reccommend these to any parent or mother to be..love it i need to buy a bigger size so my daughter can continue to wear these and be comfortable in her correct size,.

    I think Kushies are worth the mess of having to wash cloth nappies they really are great!

  • Rather disposables

    I used these for a short time and I spent so much time cleaning and changing it was to hard with a newborn. I like the disposables even though they are not as environmentally friendly.

  • BRILLIANT INNOVATION

    My daughter is due early august and we have been looking around at so many brilliant ideas, but this is one I think is fantastic, especially when there is not much bin space,......a bin full of dirty nappies when it only gets emptied every two weeks..........40 degree summer days........I need say no more....I do think it is brilliant though that something has come up to meet the problem of disposable nappies and the cost.....well done.

  • Great designs

    I love clothe nappies. These nappies are easy to use, don't leak or smell and compact. Some nappies I find bulky and the baby looks like it can't move properly. You just have to make sure you have enough of a supply while washing and drying. I found at the beginning I was concerned with the cost of buying a complete set. I now understand why as my nappies have lasted me through four children, buying new ones here and there was less expensive than buying disposables each week.

    I hear people say gosh how can you do it? But that's how our mums did it and it worked well for them, so I can't see the big deal about people doing it now. I would recommend people hire some and try them out because they really are great. Then invest in a starter pack and you will never look back!

  • Saves so much money!

    It's so much cheaper that buying disposable nappies and if your baby is prone to nappy rash these are the way to go. The designs are supper cute and they are so easy to wash, you just need a few on hand to make life easy on yourself. Best modern cloth nappies I've used by far!

  • Absolutey supurb Nappies!

    Although I wasn't chosen for this review I have bought 2 dozen of them for my granddaughter and I got to say my life would have been so much easier had I had these for my 4 children, my gosh what a fantastic product.

    Light weight yet ultra absorbent, completely machine washable and able to be tumbled dry, just awesome!

    The amount I`ve bought will last her her entire nappy wearing years and than be used again for the next granny, if that's not value for money nothing is!!

  • Why did we not have these years ago.

    I hate using disposable but did so for traveling. These have changed my mind as they can be washed and less bulk then nappies plus leak proof these have now replaced the other nappies for my two younger children. The fact I can use them on either sex is great too. Takes up less hanging space on the line the cloth nappies. My ten year can change her siblings without having to fold the nappy for use. Even have my older sons doing the changes.

  • Washable nappies are sooooo good

    I didn't use non disposable with my first son but did with my second and was really surprised how easy and good they were to use, and I was saving the environment too! I didn't use this brand (but wish I did, they are soooo cute!). No probs with nappy rash and they were so simple to use and wash. Would be great to see more non-disposable being used by mums

  • GREAT

    I used the same set of 20 Kushies nappies for all 3 of my kids - 2 boys and a girl and the nappies still have life in them! They are great from birth to toddler and the night nappies are a godsend. I would recommend these nappies to anyone looking for an all-in-one re-usable nappy as they really do work!! And they are comfortable :-)

  • Nice MCN

    I quite like the trim fit of this MCN. Most I currently use are quite bulky and cumbersome for a baby trying to roll and move about. I like the designs as well. The only gripe I have is that it doesn't last us overnight. I use a bamboo lay in insert to correct this and al is good

  • Modern Mums need Modern Cloth Nappies

    I was first introduced to MCNs when my second was 8 months old. With 2 in nappies it was getting rather expensive. We now have 3 in nappies and all MCNs. I thought cloth was too hard but for a little bit of effort its a lot cheaper then feeding the rubbish bin 50 cent pieces (price of a huggies nappy) and its better for my childrens skin, no nappy rash, and better for the environment too.

  • Yep I’ve been a member of purkle for years but don’t get much these days on it to be honest compared to what I used to het

  • Thank you for sharing this. I hadn’t hear of Purkle! Being a single mum and only working part time means every extra dollar is handy. I enjoy doing surveys and reviews in my downtime anyway, so I might as well earn while doing it! I’ve just joined, so hopefully it will be a good experience.

  • This is so helpful thank you so much for this entry! It was very helpful since I think we all need a side hustle in todays economy. Especially women who do parenting at the same time while working full-time, I appreciate you all and you are doing an amazing job!

  • Tried it before and it’s definitely one of the better companies to do surveys with. They make it so easy, the website is easy to navigate and the surveys are generally not too long. It’s easy to do whilst on the couch or filling in time! Definitely worth checking out to earn some extra cash.

  • Purkle is fun! Not a lot to earn from but if you like filling up surveys or voicing ypir opinions, it is definitely worth a try. Sometimes there are survey on music which are the most fun ones and also, these are the ones that reward the most. Not bad to earn a gift card or 2 in a year!

    Reply

  • I love Purkle. While the surveys don’t award massive sums, the surveys themselves are never long. Other platforms want a minimum of 10 minutes which can be hard to commit to during day time chaos. It doesn’t take long to accumulate a decent sum, and I use gift cards as a way to treat myself. They can be redeemed for grocery gift cards. I’ve cashed out over $200 in a year and a half. Give it a go!

  • I’ve been with Purkle for a few years now. One of my favourite survey and money earning platforms. Easy to build up a balance and redeem your earnings. Love sitting down and completing my purkle surveys, to see balance grow. I use this to treat myself or put towards presents for Christmas

  • I’m not having any luck with purkle. I tried to sign up for it and it just wasn’t working so I emailed them and didn’t hear back, I just tried again now and managed to create an account but then the activation email contained no link to click and actually activate my account. From the comments here it looks like I’m not missing anything anyway

    Reply

  • I’ve earnt a bit through Purkle and other survey sites. They are great passive income. I don’t mind that Purkle pays in gift cards as it provides a great opportunity for me to buy something for myself as opposed to putting cash away for expenses. But cash is always good!

    Reply

  • Surveys have been great to keep me awake while feeding my newborn at night but I agree with some of the comments that the time commitment is too high for the benefit. I do not believe i will continue using it once baby starts to sleep through and get through feeds quicker.

    Reply

  • I tried Purkle for approx 1 year and quite frankly it’s really not worth your time
    Very few surveys and very low amounts paid
    Worst thing is it only pays in gift cards so no cash
    I gave up and just stuck with my original survey site that I’ve been using for years
    It makes me $120 average in PayPal a week without too much effort and supplies the family with an annual holiday without touching the household budget

  • It’s a shame I’m already a member and can’t enter the competition. Surveys in general – including Purkle – can be a good way to earn some money, but just remember you won’t earn much from any one survey. It does add up over time though, and isn’t particularly difficult to do.

    Reply

  • This is a nice way to earn a bit extra money but you won’t earn a lot. Some surveys time out too which is annoying or hey just stop working half way through. If you have spare time and want to do it then why not. I sometimes do these on the train on my way to work and it slowly builds up to allow you to get a reward. It all helps.

    Reply

  • I joined Purkle ages ago but to be honest I have never used it and totally forgot that I joined let alone that I could be earning money and points while being at home. Any opportunity to make some money and try to help financially, off I go to rejoin I think!

    Reply

  • I have joined up and hope to gain some bonuses. I realise it won’t be a lot but it’s good to know from genuine people on here that have been part of purkle that it is a real site. So many scams out there so good to know this isn’t one of them.

    Reply

  • Purkle is a great surveys site. I’ve redeemed vouchers from there. You’re not going to make a fortune from it but you do definitely earn for your time. I haven’t done any for a while as I just haven’t had rhe time but I’ll definitely get back into it. The vouchers always come in handy.

    Reply

  • The inner sceptic in me will prevent me signing up! I’m not against a survey, however I would rather do one here and there when I can with the incentive of winning something big! Even a $100 voucher. At the rate I win, it works out better than signing up for this.
