Absorbency

Pros:

• "These are super long and absorbent without being heavy."
• "Amazed how much this thin comfortable pad absorbs & wicks away!"
• "Product is soft and absorbent; one is relatively unaware of it once it's on."
• "These pads are not super thick, but still manage to absorb really well. They are just comfortable."
• "As far as absorbency goes, they do what they are designed to do, and well."
• "They really, almost instantly, make you feel dry."
• "Never a sign of odor, they adhere perfectly to panties, and the absorbency is amazing."

Cons:

• "These should NOT be allowed to be sold as incontinence pads. Ok if you use 4 or 5 at once."
• "These WILL NOT HANDLE MODERATE situations. They are for LIGHT situations only."
• "Terrible product for incontinence! Should be marketed as a panty liners or absorbency 1."
• "After a recent illness, septic shock, I needed a more absorbent pad, this one is useless."
• "Despite being 'moderate' and long I woke soaking wet."
• "If you need a 4. These will not work..they do not absorb leaks."
• "I am 100% dissatisfied with these pads. They do not absorb..."

Adhesion

Pros:

• "I've been using pads for years and I find these to be much better than Poise in terms of adhesion - these stick to panties but don't become PART of them."
• "The sticky part on the bottom covers the whole width and length of the pad, which I really like."
• "The Always adhesion is much better than Poise."
• "They have a good sticking power, stay in place where I put them all day without shifting."
• "The adhesive backing sticks to your underwear really well and doesn't shift around."
• "They adhere very well, no problem."
• "The adhesive backing is wide and the entire length of the pad. It stays in place and does not move or cause a wedgy."

Cons:

• "The glue does not hold. It causes it to crumble on each side and can be very uncomfortable."
• "Most noticeable hardly any adhesive leaving the pad mobile with any movement: hence accidents, runs and errors."
• "The problem with these pads is that they are difficult to remove."
• "I bought a package of these on sale and they did not stick to any of my undergarments, whether cotton, nylon, etc."
• "The adhesive strip was useless."
• "Buying this product was a waste of money! The biggest issue IS that they don't adhere effectively AT ALL."
• "The adhesion is terrible. They don't stick to your underwear very well so they move around and then it causes leakage that way."

Comfort

Pros:

• "With these, I'm not forced to waddle-run to the bathroom every time I sneeze. I can walk calmly."
• "I love how comfortable these are."
• "I feel very comfortable and confident when I wear them."
• "They are comfortable and not bulky."
• "They're comfortable, very thin, very absorbent and stay put without twisting and bunching."
• "They are much thinner/flatter (and less noticeable) than the other pads claiming the same protection."
• "They are comfortable."

Cons:

• "First, they are too long. I’m a petite person, 5’3”, and these pads are just too long to be comfortable."
• "This product is thick and long. It felt like I was wearing a diaper."
• "The long lengths cover too much of my body and result in less air circulation and more itching and infection."
• "They are too long, too thick, and they stink."
• "Holy cow these things are like a giant old school pad."
• "The regular length is a touch too short, these are much too long."
• "This pad is too long for this petite lady which is disappointing because it does everything it claims to do."

Scent

Pros:

• "These pads work very well and have a fresh scent."
• "It's really nice to have the odor control too."
• "They do have a bit of a scent, but it’s not over the top."

Cons:

• "Now they phased out the previous design to these new odor lock which smells like a rest area restroom!"
• "The product description says 'fragrance-free', but these are, in fact, pretty heavily scented."
• "While they are absorbent, they are unpleasantly scented and magnify what is leaking from me."
• "Why do they think we want to smell like a gas station bathroom? The fragrance on these pads is SO STRONG and unnecessary."
• "It is now so extremely highly scented with the the most putrid perfume that you can actually smell it through the plastic bag!"
• "scent???!!! THEY STINK, odor is overwhelmingly strong and not at all pleasant."
• "I've bought these many times, but the recent box had a new perfume and it is like 10 times as strong as previous purchases."
