Washing and Caring for Cloth Diapers


ecoAble cloth diapers are very easy to use, wash and care for. I am going to show you a very easy step by step process on how to wash your ecoAble Cloth Diapers. 


How to wash ecoAble Cloth Diapers:

Step 1) Knock solids into toilet, and store into your dry cloth diaper diaper pail.

Step 2) Soak/wash the ecoAble cloth diapers in your washing machine with cold water.

Step 3) Wash the cloth diapers again in the washer with hot/warm water (approximately 95 degrees F).

Step 4) Tumble dry the ecoAble cloth diapers on low, or hang dry the cloth diapers.


Things to keep in mind before/while using ecoAble cloth diapers:

  • Never use bleach or fabric softener on ecoAble cloth diapers.
  • Use a liner with your ecoAble cloth diaper if you are using a diaper rash cream.
  • Never boil microfiber inserts, charcoal bamboo inserts or blended inserts. Avoid washing your diapers in very hot water and line drying outside on a very hot day.


  • Prepping cloth diapers:

    ecoAble cloth diapers are ready for use just after one wash- However, because of the natural oils in the fabric, some of our cloth diapers needs multiple washings before reaching maximum absorbency. 


    Stripping cloth diapers:

    Do several (4-6) hot water washes (no detergent) to get rid of most residues. For extreme hard water build up you may need to use RLR Laundry Treatment.


    Troubleshooting:

    If you have problems with leaking or repelling cloth diapers, please refer to our Troubleshooting Guide or contact us for assistance.
