Cloth diaper question

I have a washer and dryer and did not with my first child. I have a newborn, now. : ) I was wondering if there are good recommendations for what brand cloth diapers you ladies prefer. I have been doing some research. I have some ideas. Just looking for practical input from those in the "know". : )

*UPDATE* I am really liking what I see in the Flips. I like that they are adjustable and it seems like you really only need two covers (one that is set up ready to go for the change and one on the baby) and the ease of removing an insert. I also like the fact the insert can be washed and dried. No hanging anything to dry (except the cover if need be). I also like that they have disposable inserts for on the go! : ) Is this product all I am hoping for?

I wasn't a huge fan of prefolds, although I liked flats with covers. I now use Flip stay dry inserts inside my thristies covers, and bumgenius 4.0 pockets with snaps. I have a few kawaii baby os pockets, and a few fuzzibunz. I'm not a real big fan of the fuzzibunz, so I'm going to sell those ones. I stick mostly with the pocket diapers or the flips. After trying a bunch of different kinds, they are the easiest for everyone to use, and the most convenient for us!

I like flips with prefolds:) I have five covers and desperately need more.

I get my pocket diapers cheap from China. The site I buy them from supports an orphanage. Assuntastore.com

I like Prefolds and cover at home and pockets out & about and double stuffed pockets for night. It took me a while to get this down so don't get discouraged early on. I would buy one of a few different types of diapers to see which works better in real life. Some thInge look better on paper than in practice.
