I finally received my order of AFDC's U3 Ultimate. I am BLOWN AWAY. The diaper fits as if it was custom made only for my body, which it was! There is no extra material, no velcro scratching. It's a bit snug at the waist if I close the sides furtherst to the center, but if I close them close to the end its not as bad. But WOW! Fit is amazing. But Rob, you ask, what about absorbency? Again, I give it a 10. It held one of my very large episodes with only a small flow through into the diaper cover. Most of the time, diapers I have tested with a morning flood that were fitted diapers only absorbed half of the wetting before transferring it to the cover. Which would result in a very large puddle when the diaper cover was removed. But, with this diaper, when I stood in my bathtub and took it off, less than a few ounces fell out of the cover. This tells me with just a small booster, this diaper can handle anything a bladder can throw at it, provided its a smaller void, or you change after a flood. This is IMPRESIVE considering how thin it is. If you ever wanted to give flannel a try and want a custom fit diaper, I recommend these. The custom fit is well worth the wait.
The cost and time to manufacture are the only cons, and makes this somewhat of a luxury item. It fit WAY better than the ACD Leakmaster AIO. It certianyl fit better and performed better than InControl's twill diaper. I am a beleiver in flannel now. After I see how soft and absorbent it is. Longer drying times, be darned. I will not buy anyomore right now, as money is tight, but when I'm looking to replace my diapers in a few years, these are definetly an option to consider. The velcro panel did come off just a bit.. and the diaper did have some loose threads, but these are minor issues in my opinion.
Peace out!
Rob
