Heya all.
Just wanted to send out a quick PSA (Public Service Announcment) that I'm hoping might save someone, somewhere from making an *expensive* mistake...but--
Rearz Safari and Rearz InControl+ are NOT the same base diaper. The InControl is, in fact, a significantly cheapened version, that I suspect uses a similar SAP/padding composition as the Safari, but just about everything else has been cheapened.
I bought some of the Incontrol recently, as I had heard that they were identical to the Safari's aside from prints--and being a bit cheaper. But upon arrival, they have substantially weaker plastic backing...which I found to tear VERY easy and far worse tabs. The backing is so weak, I found the tabs simply separated off it, even when fastened intentionally loose, after just an hour or so. They're also noticeably thinner, out of the package.
For something that's marketed as a 'nighttime' diaper---and is around $3USD per diaper, this is obviously a no go.
For those thinking of trying them--please be aware, they're decidedly NOT the Safaris.
