Are you getting into prefolds and flats but can’t figure out what diaper fastener to try?
After cloth diapering for 5+ years, I’ve had plenty of time to test out both Snappi and Boingo fasteners.
I’ll dive into the differences of each fastener so you can better decide what is best for you!

Snappi Fasteners
* The Snappi Diaper Fastener (Amazon aff link) secures from three sections of the diaper.
* Snappies are stretchy and have tabs you can use to stretch on each side when securing the diaper.
* They have protective covers that you can use over the combs while not in use.
* Snappi has released a few new colors, and now come in two sizes!

Boingo Fasteners
Check out my full review of the Boingo Diaper Fasteners here!
* You only have to purchase one set. They are a “one size fits all” type of option.
*Boingos (Amazon aff link) come with a three month warranty and you can sanitize them by boiling for three minutes.
* You can extend the use of your prefolds by using these when your snappi will no longer reach.
*Boingos come in a lot of funky colors which include glow in the dark, glitter, and the new Solid Gold color!
A quick video highlighting the differences between the Snappi & Boingo. The Snappi and Boingo are an alternative to using safety pins with your prefolds or fitted cloth diapers.
The Snappi was created in South Africa by a father who was tired of dealing with safety pins. Snappi’s are made of 100% degradable materials and stretch easily to secure the diaper.
The Boingo was created by a mother of 7 children (Stacee Magee) who diapered for over 16 years! You can use the Boingo on prefolds that are almost too small extending the use of them. They are also great for newborns that have a small waste. Both diaper fasteners have their place and advantages.
Good morning, do you sell Boingo diaper fasteners?
Can you send in Portugal?

Hi Paula, I don’t currently sell them directly from my site but I would love to in the future. I know the owner of Boingo Baby really well and I can reach out to her and give her your email. Thank you for reaching out! 🙂
I have used snappi fasteners in the past and had an issue with my clothes getting snagged on them. Is that less of an issue with the boingo.
Yeah, I believe the snappies are a little bit sharper than the boingo fasteners. They can be dangerous if you’re not careful, I’ve snagged my fingers before!
