]]> Comment on For the beginners out there. by Caitlin http://www.clothdiaperhut.com/blog/2009/12/18/for-the-beginners-out-there/comment-page-1/#comment-34 Caitlin Tue, 22 Dec 2009 02:05:14 +0000 http://www.clothdiaperhut.com/blog/?p=15#comment-34 I totally agree that prefolds are the best way to go for newborns. My babe was born at 5 1/2 pounds and since he's skinny at the waist the one-size diapers didn't fit him until closer to 10 pounds, even though they advertise 7 or 8.

It's actually a deterrent to see something listed as $0 and then find out when you click a little further that it's really $56. I also noticed quite a few spelling and grammar mistakes. These kinds of things are fine in your blog, since it's meant to be more informal, but if I was the owner of BabyHawk, for example, and came to your site to find you selling Mai Tai's instead of Mei Tai's, I'd probably be a little upset.

Sale? For some of these items, that's not even .5% off. Also on this page: http://www.clothdiaperhut.com/packages.html the first three items appear to have a $0 price. You should probably fix the way that appears. Other than that, I think things look good.

The wetbag description doesn't mention material, closure, etc. The more info the better! Same comment on the Mai Teis. 2. The compare function is great, but hardly helpful when it just reiterates what is on each items' page. If there were categories like- price, sizes, fabric, color choices, inserts included, inserts/boosters recommended, cleaning, drying time, etc. that would be very helpful and put you far above other sites in my opinion. 3. I really enjoyed reading about the history, etymology, and modern types of cloth diapers, although the One Size section had a lot of repeats and really did not make any sense of pocket diapers to me. (I did use pockets for my 1st, but I wouldn't have understood it from that description if I were a newbie.) 4. I've never heard of the Wonder Wraps covers before and are intrigued by them, but the photos don't really give a good view of how they work or how they're constructed. Same comment on the Thirsties All-in-One pockets. 5. I really like that you have a New To Cloth section which has information about the cost, benefits and care. You could probably expand on the benefits in terms of health issues ie rash, practical issues ie less blowouts or leaks and include in the care info about not using rash creams with certain fabrics, etc. 6. A link from the site to the blog and more personal experience or reviews for the items in their descriptions. You've got a lot of great things on your site, just some tweaking would make it better. Good luck! I like the overall look and functionality of the site, but here are my suggestions:

Great to know it exists. I will be new to cloth diapers in June 2010! BTW LOVE the Mai Tais! Will definitely plan on adding that to the wish list. I prefer PayPal. See you on Ravelry! :) Nice site.

I would want to see more pastels and bright colors and less black lettering and dark green on the masthead. Good luck!

One thing I would like to see is a price range on the kits rather than $0.00 as the "price" which is a little miss leading. The other option would be to way "Price: Varies" to let the customer know that they will have to explore further to find out the price. I don't mind using paypal, but I understand some people might want to have other options, which can also be nice. One last thought... I can't seem to find a link to the blog on your site, and if the blog is supposed to have all the explanatory articles about different products, it would be really helpful to have it clearly linked. Maybe I'm just missing it, but if I am missing it, I'm sure others are too. That's all for now, good luck with the business! :D I think the site is set up quite well.
