Are the total drys the same as bambino line or different? Thanks
Trevor said:They have been the same as Bambino Bianco or Classico. Still are, as far as I know. Teddies were supposed to have a bit more SAP than the others.
bambinod said:I vaguely remember something about the Teddy (when they briefly had the stretch tapes?) claiming a higher capacity but I don't know if that ended up just being rumor or what. (I believe there was no truth to it)
Bellissimo are the only diaper with that profile that have higher capacity AFAIK, due to different (higher sap) padding.
Totaldry X-Plus is the base model the Classico, Bianco, and Teddy are based on. Only difference is in the shell art. Bellisimo are also the same model but with better padding.
Trevor said:I remember this coming from the company. It's still in their longer form promotional text: https://bambinodiapers.com/teddy-printed-diapers-c-8 so I think it's valid (10% more SAP). As to whether that makes any difference, I guess that's for reviewers to decide.
INTrePid said:Interesting, I thought the plastic on the shell was somehow different from the bianco or classico. So the only difference between the X-plus and the Bianco is the taping panel text/graphics?
Lestat said:The Teddy use to have 10% more. Now they seem to be are like the Bianco or Classico. Someone needs to test it out to find out. If you look at the cost. Those 3 diapers are the same cost. Even on a sale price.
bambinod said:I'd still wager they were only +10% if ever on the short run of stretch-tape teddies.
It'd be difficult to test for an additional 10% capacity. One would have to assume they mean they added in 10% more SAP to the pulp, but that'd be such a small amount (by weight) that you'd really need to get a precision weight comparison between two bags of diapers. I've weighed diapers to compare them, and they're not terribly consistent from one diaper to the next, not enough to catch this, so it would absolutely require an averaging of a larger sample. A bag would have to be the minimum, a case would be better. (and finding a precision scale that goes up to that weight is tricky)
My best scale is intended to measure food, but only goes up to 20oz, and its precision is 0.05oz. A Rearz Safari is about 7.4oz, so I can measure two of those together to average their weight, but three overloads my scale. An individual Safari diaper might weight 7.3-7.5oz though, which is a typical consistency.
I can only guess as to what percentage of a diaper's weight is accounted for by sap, although high-sap diapers DO weigh more. Maybe sap accounts for 1/3 of the weight in a high sap diaper?
Running those numbers on say, a Safari... that'd be 2.5oz sap. So 10% of that would be 0.25oz. You can see where that's not a lot more than the average variance of "identical" diapers off the line.
Trying that with a medium sap diaper (like the teddy) would drop that difference down into the mud where individual diapers vary from one to the next.
So you'd definitely need to do some averaging with a good scale to verify this.
