Huggies Ultratrim diaper is a nice diaper with a good sponge
factor. It is very thin in its composure and is not quite
comfortable. These may not be good diapers if your baby has
started crawling. However it is designed in order to prevent
leakages and it may be good for small babies since their stools
are quite liquid.
Pampers Swaddlers on the other hand is several times better
because of the comfort level that is being offered from the
thickness as well as the stretchiness of the diaper. Ultra trim
is nowhere close to swaddlers especially in this category.
The picture on the left shows soft tabs
and these are important for the saftey.

These diapers has nice and soft fastening tabs which hold the
diaper in place well and which do not pinch if they touch your
baby's body. However it could have more softness.
There is one major
drawback in this diaper. The back of the diaper has a hard spot
in the inner layer. This hard spot is not only hard, but it is
also grainy and some small sand like grains are sticking out of
the surface layer. It might not be that relevant if your baby is
rolling on the tummy most of the time, but it sure does matter
for the infant who is always laying on her back. Beach sand is
nice at the beach but not in the underwear!
Size wise all
Huggies diapers are quite small, and Huggies ultra trim is not
an exception. If you need size 1, you might as well buy size 2
and that will fit your baby just perfectly. Sometimes this makes
us wonder, if the manufacturer is doing this on purpose, to make
the consumers buy a higher size thus reducing the quantity of
the diapers inside a pack thereby making a higher profit. It
might not seem so, since the difference could only be in cents
rather than dollars on each sale, but when you sell millions of
packs, the difference could be in hundreds of thousands of
dollars. Again, this observation is based on the time while we
were writing this review, and things may have changed now. So,
please check it out for yourself.
While taking into consideration all the pluses this diaper has
(decent sponge factor, fine elasticity, decent looks, effective
leakage protection, gentle fastening tabs), one can conclude
that it is a decent diaper. We currently do not have the exact
picture of the Ultratrim diaper. The picture shown here is
another diaper from the same manufacturer. We think this diaper
may have been discontinued in some parts of the country.
Considering the cost factor, UltraTrim is not cheap since it is
a brand name diaper from Huggies. Like we always say, a premium price always
goes along without saying for brand name diapers. Based on
your test sample and experience you can decide if you really
want to pay the price for a diaper that does not score well on
the comfort category.
