I used these on my son and like them very much. They are like Pull-Ups in terms of how you use them, are easy to pull on etc... They are, however, MUCH bulkier than disposable options. Wasn't a problem for my son, but a child not used to cloth previously might well balk at wearing it. One tip too, make sure that you get pj bottoms that can acomodate that bulk. We didn't at first and had leak problems from the pjs creeping into the pant at night and wicking out moisture. I then got a pair of fleece pj bottoms that were a couple sizes bigger (rolled the cuffs) and all problems solved! In the summer if it was too hot, I'd just let him go bottomless...
