PG - Our bathroom/wash room is literally right next to O's room so we keep the pail in there. Obviously that makes it much easier for us to rinse. You have quite the trek! I won't lie, there's a little bit of a learning curve to the prefolds and I was happy when we were able to switch to OS, but they weren't hard by any means. Just a little more time getting them on. We just did a trifold in the beginning. Like you said, the fitteds are so much more expensive compared to prefolds that I just couldn't justify the expense for the few months that we used them. O was about 8 pounds when we brought him home, but I think the Duos would be just fine for a smaller baby too.
We use cloth wipes. We don't worry about a wipe solution, we just wet them in the sink before we change him. His poo is so stinky that we nearly always know before we change him whether we need to wet a wipe. I do have disposable wipes on the changing table in case I get a surprise poo and it's too hard to get to the bathroom. That's only happened twice and I didn't see that the disposable did a better job than the cloth by any means. We have Diaper Lotion Potion just in case we need a little extra spray, but rarely do.
