Summary: Love them
November 1st, 2009

I actually found these to be pretty absorbent, so I was surprised at other reviewers comments saying otherwise. I thought I leaked a lot, but maybe not!
They are very inexpensive and I can get away with just two pairs a day. The only negative for me would be that they feel quite stiff, I have noticed that other brands are softer and mould to the breast better. But at that price, i'm really not going to complain :)

Excellent value for money- I never leaked much but they were as confortable as other more expensive brands and not too thick. I will use them again!

Summary: Worked well for me.
July 5th, 2009

Interesting to read the reviews from very negative to very positive.

My experience is positive. They were the first breast pads I ever bought & 3 months later I am still using them. They are economical & last all day for me, even though I hav a fair amount of leakage.

They do not stick overly well and sometimes they have bunched up on me.

They are also individually wrapped in plastic (not in pairs) and this I am not happy with as it is such a huge waste of packaging.

Everyone will find their experiences different so try to buy some small packs until you find the pads that are suitable for you.

I didn't like this product as it made my skin very irritated and itchy.

Summary: Cheapie but a Goodie!
March 4th, 2008
These were so good. They came packaged kinda...unattractively... in their box, but they worked as well as the other disposable breastpads I was happy with (Pidgeon), but they cost next to nothing compared to other brands.



They, and the Pidgeon ones, were the only brand I tried (I tried all brands my local supermarket stocked) that didn't make my nipples super-itchy.



I think they were fabulous.

Summary: Hopeless!!!!
January 30th, 2008
These were really hopeless, i just leaked through. I wish that i had known at the beginning, by the johnson and johnson breast pads they really are the best, the lasted me all day and were super comfortable, no horrible plastic like the other ones and they don't hang out of your bras..... In the end i think breast pads are like nappies, you really do get what you pay for!!

Summary: Good for minor leaks

These are great if you are not leaking alot.



I wish I'd known at the start that some brands are more absorbant.



But now I find these are great value for my $$ and I buy the bulk pack!

Nothing much to say about these except they were totally crap!

When my milk came in I was changing pad every 10 minutes.

These worked fine for me. Nice and cheap. I do find that they do lose there shape a bit, but for the price you can't expect much.

Summary: yuck!
December 11th, 2007
I used these early in my feeding days, and didn't like them at all!! They felt very bulky, and didn't keep they're shape very well. Also weren't very absorbent, at least, not for me, I regularly leaked through them! And they constantly felt wet. Quite cheap, which was why I bought them in the first place, but after a couple of days use, I chucked 'em, didn't even keep them for emergencies.

Summary: Not very absorbant
November 26th, 2007
I bought these because they were very cheap but I quickly regretted it. They were not very absorbant at all and became soggy and crumpled within an hour of putting them on. I had to change them a lot more than my regular pads so they were not good value for money at all.
