Cloth diapering pros and cons??

Wi

Anyone care to share their Cloth diaper experience? Is it a pain in the ass? Cheaper or more expensive? I like that it creates less waste however washing them costs money for electricity and water too so I would love to compare and also which is easier?? Seems like disposable would be easier than taking dirty diapers home to wash when we are out and about... I really want to go green and be earth friendly however
