If you’ve been a follower for a while, you know that although I’ve developed a love for most type of cloth diapers, I hold a special place in my heart for hook and loop all-in-one diapers. Hands down, they are my favorite. When I recently heard about Chelory’s diapers and then saw them, it was over. I knew I NEEDED to try this diaper!
Where might the name Chelory come from? As a romantic at heart, I love this story. You see, the founder of Chelory, RaCHEL, married her high school sweetheart, cORY. Can you see where it came from? 
I love meanings behind names! 
Rachel and Cory now have two children. She knew she wanted to cloth diaper before her first was born. When her second was a boy and her husband refused to let him wear pink and purple diapers (sound familiar? It does here! LOL) Rachel sold her girly diapers and the buyers loved them. Soon after when those mamas who bought the diapers NEEDED more Chelory was born. Chelory offers both AIO and AI2 diapers.Rachel kindly sent us the AIO diaper for review with baby Addy. Here’s what Chelory says about their AIO:
The Chelory Organic AIO allows only natural fibers to touch baby’s sensitive skin. The ultimate absorbing capabilities are due to the unique combination of Bamboo and Zorb. Zorb is a revolutionary new product that can absorb 10 times it’s weight in less than half a second — that’s 20 times faster than cotton. It has the amazing ability to wick moisture evenly throughout the entire absorbent surface area.
When I saw these diapers online, I was impressed. When I opened the package I received in the mail, I was in love.
These are some of the best sewn diapers I have seen. Not only the best sewn, but some of the best AIOs and some of the best hoop and loop closure. It is a one-size diaper and has three snap rise settings for a small, medium and large sized diaper and is said to fit babies from approximately 12-40 pounds.
This is the diaper snapped on the medium setting for our 21 pound baby girl. I LOVE this combination of zebra print and pink color! It’s one of my favorite combinations recently and when I saw Rachel created a Chelory diaper like this there was no doubt which diaper we wanted to review! The hook and loop closures are high-quality and have innovative fold-back “SMART TABS” that are really easy to use and keep the hook from sticking to everything else in the laundry. They seem like they will last a LONG time! I love that you don’t have to fold any part of the “wing” over to get the laundry tabs fastened. It’s JUST the hook/loop that you fold over, which means less wear on the diaper.
The inner part of this diaper is organic and oh so soft! You can see how it’s all one piece and requires no folding or stuffing! It’s ALL right there, in one piece! <3
If a fit can be adorable, this is it! The Chelory AIO fits amazingly well and in fact has quickly climbed the ladder to be one of our absolute favorite diapers. The fit really is amazing: the legs, the waist, all of it and there are no openings anywhere that allow for leaks.
That is one cute fluffy bum, now isn’t it?! Again, the combination of print/color is gorgeous!
You can see from the side view it fits around her legs perfectly and has no openings there either.
The diaper is SUPER daddy friendly in this house. It’s easy to use and quick to put on. It’s really no different than a disposable in terms of use and grandparents, babysitters and husbands all around will appreciate this diaper! Laundering the diaper is similar to all of our other diapers. Because of the natural fibers it does need more initial washings to reach it’s full absorbency and because it’s an all-in-one diaper with a few layers it can take longer to dry than pockets. In my opinion, it’s all well worth that extra bit of work!
