Which Try-It Kit Fits Your Baby?

The Esembly Cloth Diaper Try-It Kit is designed to give families a simple, low-commitment way to start cloth diapering. The main difference between the two kits is the size range they cover. Size 1 is intended for babies weighing approximately 7–17 lbs, while Size 2 fits babies approximately 18–35 lbs. Choosing the right size depends on your baby's current weight and how long you plan to use each stage.

Side-by-Side: What Each Kit Includes

Both kits contain the same types of items: three organic cotton Inners for absorbency, one waterproof Outer for containment, a waterproof drawstring pouch for storing soiled diapers, and a small bag of Esembly Washing Powder. The Outer can also double as a swim diaper. The key difference is the sizing of the Inners and Outer—Size 1 fits smaller babies, Size 2 fits larger toddlers.

  • Size 1 Try-It Kit: Fits babies approx. 7–17 lbs. Includes 3 organic cotton Inners, 1 waterproof Outer, 1 waterproof pouch, and 1 small bag of Washing Powder.
  • Size 2 Try-It Kit: Fits babies approx. 18–35 lbs. Includes the same components but sized for older babies and toddlers.

Making the Choice

If your baby is under 18 lbs, start with the Size 1 Try-It Kit. It gives you everything needed to test the Esembly system without a full commitment. For babies already over 18 lbs or if you're preparing for the toddler stage, go directly to Size 2. Each kit is designed to be a complete starter set, and the included washing instructions make laundry manageable—just two loads per week with the provided Washing Powder.
