What types of cloth diapers do you prefer?

Question by Astragalo: What types of cloth diapers do you prefer?
There are so many different types of cloth diapers, and I don't mean brands. I mean prefolds, pockets, AIO's, fitteds....what type do you like best and why?
I'm considering making the switch and would like to hear your experiences.
Thanks so much! And yes, I have researched diaperpin, diaperswappers, and looked at numerous websites.

I use unbleached Indian prefolds and Momma made flannels fitteds, with dritz pins. They are not the fanciest or the easiest to use, but they are the cheapest options. I put my money into cute wool covers, as they are really what you see. I have a couple All-in-Ones, but the really cute all in ones are pretty pricey.

  I'm a huge fan of Fuzzi Bunz. Baby's bum stays just as dry as with a disposable, and rashes are very rare. Nice trim fit, too, and you can increase absorbency for naps or nighttime by adding an extra insert (or two). But you MUST use the detergents recommended by the company, or you'll end up with nasty residue problems. (Charlie's Soap was a lifesaver for me.)
  For a newborn, I prefer Kissaluvs fitted diapers with a cover. They prevent poo leaks better than anything I've ever tried. They're thick, though, so you have to be diligent about extra rinses in the wash, and they take forever in the dryer. They're also pretty bulky, which I don't like for a baby learning to sit up -- they can't bend in the middle! :)
  For sheer economy, I like the good old Chinese prefolds with a cover. Very easy to wash, very cheap, very durable, very easy to use. The diapers also make great burp cloths, and when you're done using them for the baby, you can use them for dusting, staining wood (they're actually perfect for applying stain), soaking up spills, etc.
  I've also used Bumkins AIOs. They're convenient, especially for a bullheaded, squirmy toddler, but sort of a pain to wash. (Lots of layers, with a waterproof layer on the outside.)

  I prefer pocket diapers for day and fitted diapers with a wool cover for nights.
  Pocket diapers are nice during the day because they are convenient, keep the baby feeling dry and the absorbency is easily adjustable. I stuff all my diapers immediately after washing and drying them so that they are always ready to go! I prefer to use hemp in my pocket diapers because I find it to be the most absorbent. I have some AIOs but they have cotton soaker pads in them and I find they don't hold as much. Also, yes you can add doublers on top of the AIOs but I find they bunch and move around a lot. All the absorbent layers stay neat and in place when stuffed inside a pocket diaper.
  I also love how fast pocket diapers dry because they absorbent layers are separate and that you can get diapers that are "one-size."
  I mostly use Baby Kanga one-size pouch diapers:

  And I also use bumGenius 2.0 one-size pocket diapers:

  I like bamboo fitted diapers at night because they are also super absorbent, some places say bamboo absorbs 60% more liquid than cotton! I pair them with a wool diaper cover as wool is a nice natural fabric and breathes really well to make sure the baby stays cool! My daughter sleeps 8-14 hours straight at night and she is a heavy wetter so she needs a really good night diaper! Lots of people use pocket diapers at night too, but I like the fitted diaper and wool cover better at night as it breathes more.
  I use a Totsbots Bamboozle fitted diaper:

  And a Sckoon wool cover over top:

  I used plain white towel nappies. The ones you have to fold and pin your self.
  They worked fine for my twins. They are allergic to everything!!
  All I did was fold them into the kite fold, and lay a liner where their bum goes. Then pin and put a plastic cover over.
  Yes, made me have extra washing, but when you already wash all day, it doesn't matter.
  The best feeling was hanging my beautiful white nappies out on the line. I felt so proud.
  I know I need to get a life!!
