The SwaddleBees Outlet is one of my favorite places to buy 2nd quality diapers. These diapers supposedly have minor flaws. I've bought quite a few & have yet to actually find a visible flaw. While supplies last everything in the outlet is 50% off!!!
I purchased side snap minky pocket diapers for $12.50 each!!! I also purchased Organic Cotton Velour fitted diapers for $9 each!
The outlet is physically located in their headquarters here in the town where I live, so while I was there today, I also asked Casey McClure his opinion about getting rid of STINK. Casey is a great guy & very knowledgeable. He is of the opinion that a lot of the stink issues (ammonia) that I am currently experiencing are actually from using too little detergent. I have found ways to increase the amount of water my diapers are getting in my front loading washer, now I will try increasing the amount of soap & adding an additional rinse. I would LOVE to be rid of this ammonia!

That's awesome! He's probably right..I always use more soap than I was first told to use and have yet to have stink issues (knock on wood). Good luck, I hope it works for you :)
I just love their outlet, too! I wish I lived near headquarters. They had some amazing deals on OV fitteds and minky wraps today, and I just couldn't resist! We had ammonia problems for a while, too; it is definitely due to the diapers not being clean (from a chemistry standpoint, it has everything to do with the mess left in the diaper combined with the pH of fresh urine), and Casey's recommendation is a good one. It's hard to judge how much to use sometimes with HE washers. I switched detergents and added Calgon (we have hard water) and no more stinkies. I hope you find a solution!
I have shopped their outlet a couple of times as well! That is so cool you live close by to a company like Swaddlebees!
So I have a suggestion if you have stink! Try using some tea tree oil like 3-5 drops in your wash! I love this! It is an anti-bacterial and will kill the bacteria that can cause stink and rashes!
Also you can try to use some vinegar (1/4 c) in the rinse.
BUT the BIG suggestion I have is to hang them up out-side to dry! SUN them! The sun is amaxing! I have fresh diaper everytime!
