    I wish Australia had Uhaul pads ready to buy and are affordable. I'm trialing fleece, matress topper with cotton fill for the absorbent layer, and a waterproof mattress protector for the base as kmart sells them cheap. But I think your tips on what types of fleece to buy is going to make a big difference. Loving this series👍

    • @TheTinyHerd
      @TheTinyHerd  3 роки тому +5

      I think I might do some experiments on different absorbent layers here soon. The uhaul pads I've been buying lately aren't the same as they used to be!

    ive used polar fleece for my liners, because here in the UK, im guessing that is what blizzard fleece is called. We dont have uhaul but ive used the furniture removal blankets/pads from ebay and they look similar and work fantastic.

    • @TheTinyHerd
      @TheTinyHerd  2 роки тому +1

      That's great! I'll keep that in mind, people from outside the US have asked me what to use instead of uhaul pads so that's good to know!
