Smile anyone use/using CPF with success??

I have a prefold obsession & for this next bub I want to have a very simple stash of PF's, Tot's, BBB, Home made VB fitted & some OS AIO/Pockets.

Thinking of making bamboo PF's, but thought about getting some CPF's also.
I have been reading over at Diaper Pin & alot of mumma's use them there.

Anyone? whats your take??

I'll LYK in about 7 weeks time - not much help now though :-) I've made a few different types of bamboo prefolds, and was given a dozen bleached chinese prefolds (cotton), plus I've got some unbleached ones that I bought ages ago coming with some more fabric (in time I hope).
I've also been given some NB VB (erica's)....they are just sooo cute. Making some NB AIO's (fiddling with the shar's pattern) and I probably will do some more covers too.
And CONGRATULATIONS on your pregnancy!

I don't have any CPF but have been using my homemade Bamboo prefolds with great success.

I used CPF on Toby as a newborn and they were great. I do love the feel of the bamboo though and they work well as pocket stuffers or boosters later on. I found the CPF's didn't cut it for us as stuffers or boosters.

I have been using CPF with great success. In first few weeks I used them as is as I was changing so often. Now I use them with a booster.
I have always snappied them and have only had two leaks onto the covers.

I am now thinking that I will buy some bamboo prefolds instead of more fitteds as I have found prefolds so easy.

I have some infant sized Bambino Mio prefolds, though didn't ever use them as prefolds, if you know what I mean! I only got them when DS was 12 months or so, and we used them as pocket stuffers and boosters with a fair bit of success. I like them.

I thought CPF was 'chinese prefolds'. Not sure why?
