I suspect that there were different materials involved, possibly at different manufacturing plants. The bright colors are newer than the pastel colors, so even though both diapers were ordered at the same time it doesn't mean they were manufactured at the same time.<br />Certainly the leakage, chemical smell, etc. are all due to care--but don't despair if your BG 3.0's have icky velcro! It's not your fault, ladies!Ashley F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03255448733436490380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3903781551657311059.post-28645373971067182742010-12-20T18:38:15.759-06:002010-12-20T18:38:15.759-06:00I have BumGenius 3.0's also.

I think the top loader really beats up diapers with the agitator and ages them a lot faster. When I go to my mom's now, I won't wash diapers anymore because it seemed to cause the curling elastic and the pilling.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07285528063146772997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3903781551657311059.post-72076416153687109762010-12-20T16:05:45.539-06:002010-12-20T16:05:45.539-06:00BG's instructions say to just wash once to pre...BG's instructions say to just wash once to prep and to use bleach once a month... just sayin'.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577362063266395278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3903781551657311059.post-32566989664380412622010-12-20T15:28:39.499-06:002010-12-20T15:28:39.499-06:00I have 10 BG 3.0s that look like Jane's.

I have some I bought in April and they are not as nice as yours, but still in great shape. I think my washer beats them up!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08383794307397419415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3903781551657311059.post-1361851252328152232010-12-20T14:35:25.893-06:002010-12-20T14:35:25.893-06:00I own about 8 3.0 BGs, I have ONE lonely light gre...I own about 8 3.0 BGs, I have ONE lonely light green diaper (like the one above). I care for all of them the same, and this ONE lonely diaper looks like "Jane's" but the rest look like yours. It's almost like they used a different Velcro front and different laundry tabs for this one diaper.-Tracy-https://www.blogger.com/profile/01232354180929304542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3903781551657311059.post-63440365442335126412010-12-20T14:11:15.009-06:002010-12-20T14:11:15.009-06:00I'm with you guys on the BG Velcro - I only ha...I'm with you guys on the BG Velcro - I only have one, but mine looks horrible. I have some nubunz velcro dipes, and the velcro looks fine, so I think it was the type that BG used. Most of my diapers are snaps though. <br /><br />I can't imagine washing diapers with my regular clothes. Mainly because i try and wash my other clothes on cold, and i use hot with an extra rinse and less soap on the diapers.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02927704946324512023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3903781551657311059.post-88387435921764466172010-12-20T13:27:56.607-06:002010-12-20T13:27:56.607-06:00Well, in principle, I totally agree with you. Howe...Well, in principle, I totally agree with you. However, I have the same BG 3.0s, and mine are about 12 months old. I have followed the manufacturer's directions exactly for 12 months, and my diapers look much more similar to Jane's. The velcro does still stick just fine, but it's very pilly and curly. I truly have no idea how you've kept yours looking so new. It's just not a guarantee that following directions and being careful will make your diapers last longer.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00385491400476662618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3903781551657311059.post-24969493135065509362010-12-20T13:23:18.240-06:002010-12-20T13:23:18.240-06:00My question is, i have BumGenius 3.0 as well, and ...My question is, i have BumGenius 3.0 as well, and do all the correct washing instructions and "some" of my diapers the taps look like that..
