First Impressions:
At first glance this nappy looks identical to the original Sized Peapods Pocket Nappy, but once you open it up, you see that it's different.  I love the idea of the adjustable leg elastic - it takes away the bulk from the front of the nappy - and along with being able to use it as a pocket or AI2 makes this one of the most customisable nappies I've come across.  I'm just wondering if the slide will move in the wash - I don't want to have to re-adjust it every time.
UPDATE: The slides stay put just fine :)

Design:
So let me explain the design in more detail.  It starts out as a normal pocket nappy with a trifold bamboo booster.  There is an opening in both the front and back to make for easy insertion (pic 1).  The bamboo booster is topped with microfleece (just the top 1/3 when folded) and equipped with snaps so it can also be snapped into place at the front of the nappy for use as an AI2 (pic 3).  When not used as an AI2, a layer of microfleece covers the snaps, so they don't irritate bub (pic 2).
Right near the snaps there is also a slide on the leg elastic which can be pulled up or down to tighten or loosen the leg elastic and at the same time the rise of the nappy.  XS,S,M, L are marked on the elastic so you can easily make both sides the same (pic 4). 

Size/ Fit: 
With 4 size settings, and separate leg and waist adjustment, you should be able to get this nappy to fit most bubs.  I reckon on an older/taller child it might become a little hipster though - it doesn't seem as long in the rise as some of my others.
It fits my 18mth old very nicely on Medium so she's got a bit of growing room yet. She's a little chubby, but there's still plenty of room.


Absorbency:
The tri-fold absorber is 2 thick layers of bamboo - lovely and soft but holds a lot of wee :)

Washing/ Drying Time:
Easy to pull apart and wash.  The covers dry in no time at all and the boosters take a full day in the sun (not that we get a full day of sun that often here :))  I guess that's the bonus about AI2 and pocket systems - you can buy extra boosters and re-use the covers while the others are drying.

Other Comments:
I'm looking forward to seeing how this fits on my newborn - only 6 weeks to go! - I reckon it'll be one of the earlier fitting One-Size nappies.  The quality of material seems good, although I think I personally prefer micro-suede to microfleece as an inner layer - my micro-suede nappies don't seem to have stained as easily, but that might be coincidence :)

UPDATE: I had this nappy on Cha Cha at 5wks and 4kgs. It fit her nicely on the XS setting both around her legs & tummy. The trifold bamboo insert seemed like overkill at that stage, a Peapods night booster would probably have been enough, but the nappy still wasn't too bulky for an OSFM. There was a bit of excess material at the front, but it didn't affect how well it worked. It was nice to be able to make the legs fit exactly right and still be able to snap the tummy to fit right too.

Summary: 
 I really like this nappy so far!   I love how customisable it is and it's very practical for Tassie weather.  The price is also very reasonable! I'd definitely recommend it!
