Considering cloth diapers but boyfriend is a hard no

So i have sensitive skin and I'm concerned that our baby will, too. I saw that cloth diapers might be a good option, and I'm thinking it might also be more cost effective than disposables.

When I asked my boyfriend, he said no, don't want to deal with it. Then he said it would take some convincing. But I'm not entirely sold on the idea yet, either. So, please share some of the pros and cons of using cloth, especially if you have experience using both

TIA
