question about covers

[mooncharm]

I've decided that my favorite cover is the Capri size 2 with snaps. However, I have only tried the Blueberry coverall and RaR in addition to those. One of the reasons why I like the Capri is that it has the flap for holding a padfolded flat or whatever else I want to put in there. What else is like this? Is the Flip like that? If so, then how does that compare with the Capri?

The flip has flaps too, but they are less "structured" and a little smaller, especially the back flap. IMO they don't hold prefolds/flats as well as Capris do. They only really do a good job with the flip inserts.

Nicki's also have flaps, but I find the cut to be much different than Capris. Skinnier in the crotch and with really long "wings".

The flip has flaps, but I find them kinda useless especially the back one.  I have aPW cover,it has front and back flaps, and they seem to be more substantial than the flips. I still haven't used it much yet. .. it seems like every time I put it on,  there's poop. Asuntan has a Tuckable cover with flaps. I haven't tried it, but I know my friend likes it. The other Assuntas have a front flap, but I don't think it's meant for tucking, but I have.

I just like to say flip flap. Flip flap, flip flap, flip flap.

Okay I think I will just get some more Capri covers since I like them. Unless of course I need an excuse for a good tongue twister!

The Diaper Safari ones and I think the Diaper Junction ones have the flaps too. I like my DS cover and I haven't tried a DJ cover. I like doing a happy anteater fold with my flats and tuckable covers more than the standard pad fold.....but that's just me.

Oh yeah, DS, I like theirs better than flip too, at least the flaps.

Capri's are my top covers too! I love them for using with pad folded flats. I'm not using them as much lately because ours are all aplix and C is at the stage wear he wants to try to take them off. There is a WAHM on facebook and etsy called Borrowed Planet and she does AI2 covers that are basically covers with flaps (I don't have the inserts she sells, just the cover). The flaps are really nice, structured, almost superior to Capri flaps. I hate the one Flip I have, the flaps suck (as does the elastic).
