Disposable nappies are good but why make them so we are only be able to use once? The answer is simple because they are cheaper to make. You may be thinking "but that's stupid," well the only thing manufactures care about is money, they will do anything for it for example they will try to rip you off with expensive prices and they will bend the truth.
