I much prefer my Joey-bunz to my gCloth inserts, now that I have a few more years experience under my belt. The gCloth are no where near absorbent enough! Today, I thought I'd take the time to answer the questions from my last post. My friend Heather asked:. One question, what is your favorite insert? BabyKicks vs. gCloth. Dry in about half the time.
