The Winners of the 2025 Cloth Diaper Community Choice Awards Have Been Chosen!
The Cloth Diapers for Beginners community has voted and chosen the winners of the 2025 Cloth Diaper Community Choice Awards!
Why Do These Awards Exist?
The Cloth Diaper Community Awards exist because the cloth diaper community is extremely helpful and supportive. Learning about cloth diapers and their care is tough, especially in today’s world where laundry science is a mystery to most folks.
As I’ve built the Cloth Diapers for Beginners brand over the past 10+ years, sure I have updated and refined my own recommendations for the best cloth diapers, but our community is over 100,000 strong over Facebook, Reddit and Subscribers! The amount of experience, and knowlege our community has together is far greater than anything one person could manage.
The Cloth Diaper Community Choice Awards capitalizes on the cloth diaper community’s strength to give a leg up to those just beginning their diapering journey. They help newbies know exactly what cloth diapers and accessories to spend their time on, and offers a natural rating system to help them make decisions they will be happy with, long-term.
About the Awards: How The Winners Are Chosen
The Cloth Diaper Community Choice Awards follow a simple process to identify the most loved cloth diapers and accessories in the community:
Step One: Nominations
The nomination phase allowed members of the Cloth Diapers for Beginners community to suggest their favorite products for each of the 15 categories. Whether it’s the softest prefolds, the best overnight diapers, or the handiest diaper pail, this is the time to let your favorites shine.
To keep the awards fair and community-focused, the following rules were put in place:
- Self-nominations are not allowed. Company owners, employees, representatives, and ambassadors cannot nominate their own brands or products.
- A company or product can only compete in two categories. If a business or product is nominated in more than two categories, with the same number of nominations in each, we may reach out to the brand to determine their preferred categories.
- Correct categories are essential. For example, an all-in-one diaper cannot compete in the pocket diaper category. Nominations that don’t match their category will be disqualified.
- Eligibility requirements apply. Businesses must have been operational and online for at least one year and have a functional website.
In 2025 we received over 200 nominations from individuals who wanted to promote their favorite cloth diapering retailers, products and brands enough to take the time to nominate them!
Step Two: Voting
Once the nominations are in, it’s time to vote! During this phase, the community will has the chance to select their favorite products and brands from the nominees in each category. Voting is done on the website, using polling software that limits each member to one vote in each category, but voting in every category is not necessary (we want votes based on experience using the diaper or product only).
Step Three: Winners Announced
Once the voting is complete, the winners are announced and the winning brands and products receive a digital badge to brag about their win. These awards highlight the products and brands that the cloth diapering community truly loves, helping parents everywhere make informed decisions.
