you mean covers? oh, totally! They're great! Mine are polyester, actually, but they look plastic. Thirsties never leak a drop and the colors are lovely. But i like the bumgenius 3.0 pockets best, over using covers + prefolds or fitteds or anything else. they're so easy, and great for overnight/naps/being out and about (i hate diaper changes on the go). Plus, cloth diapering, i'm saving about $2,000 in disposables. I've only had to buy 1 pack of disposables for a long trip (came in handy during the ice storm power outage, too, when we couldn't do laundry).

ps i just read Deborah's account, and I really feel for her and her daughter! But I'd like to stop a myth from spreading. Good cloth diapers will keep the moisture away from that baby's skin. A Bumgenius diaper feels almost completely dry in the morning after 7-8 hours of my daughter being in it. The moisture goes straight to the inserts, where it remains. Other diapers are great, too, but, sure, you will probably have to change them every couple of hours. This is a good thing. For hygiene reasons, no baby wearing any diaper should go for hours on end without a diaper change. Even if mom and dad feel they can "get away with it." Maybe it is for this reason that cloth-diapered babies (these days, anyway) tend to get far fewer rashes than disposable-diapered ones. They've done studies! Now, I can imagine that rubber covers or other non-breathable materials would usually cause problems. Fungus, for one thing! But the covers on the market today generally deal with that using PUL (polyurethane laminate, I believe) and other breathable materials.
