Cloth Diapers? What's the Deal?

I really want to try cloth but my mom and hubby are totally against it for two reasons 1/hassle 2/cost. help me out!! which brand do you use? do you wash them twice (saw that on several of the sites)or just run them thru regular wash? are they really cheaper than disposables? i use pampers and they run me $20 for 82, so about 25 cents per diaper. i really love the environment part of cloth and they look WAY cuter (esp when dresses ride up!) pls give me some feedback...thanks mamas!

Cloth Diapers: Any Recommendations or Warnings? I'm Thinking of Experimenting

I am finally considering cloth diapers. We are hoping for 4 kids, so it seems like a decent investment. #1 is starting to have success on the potty, yet sporadically; #2 is 14 mo.; and #3 is due in April. Kids #1 & #2 could easily both wear size 3 or 4, so i was thinking of just buying one size to experiment with, but they are so expensive that I didn't want to mess up. Although they do seem to sell on ebay easily. What are the good brands? Do you have to use inserts or covers. And how are they with leaks? We have had some trouble...
