Name brand vs store brand diapers?

Hi all, first time mom here. A question I have is, what are the differences between name brand vs store brand/value diapers?
Pros and cons?
Do you recommend a certain brand?

I use to use pampers but once I had 2 kids in diapers I switched to parent choice its the walmart brand...I like it more then pampers and it is way cheaper like 13.97 a box....I think the off brand are sometimes better then the brands. same with wipes I use parent choice and they are just the same as the other wipes
Costco Kirkland diapers and wipes!!!

It depends on how sensitive the kid is.

Target Brand are the best store brand. I used pampers for a long time and a friend told me about them...I think they are actually better than pampers. I've tried Walmart brand and hated them, also I don't know if you have a BJ's around you (like SAM's or Costco) and they have a berkley and Jensen brand diaper I also hated.
For my 6 year old, we mostly used Pampers but switched to Walmart brand when she was in between sizes. I never noticed a difference back then and they had the nice stretchy tabs. This time around, we're going to explore cheaper brands. I have some from Walmart, Target and Luvs. I got 2 packs of Little Ones (?) brand from a friend and I have no clue who makes them. As Olivia grew, we switched to Huggies Overnights because she was peeing through the Pampers.
But, every child is different, and you'll more than likely have to "experiment" and find the one that is right for your baby. Also, if your baby has sensitive skin, that may limit which diapers you can use, also.
I used to like the Target brand, but they seemed to have changed a couple of years ago and after that I didn't like them as well.
I personally hate Luvs (I think they smell funny) and don't care for other store brands.
I think it kind of depends on the type/brand and your child.
