Life-Changing
Are you tired of spending a fortune on disposable pads and tampons? Do you find a menstrual cup uncomfortable? Do you have heavy flow that can't be stopped? Are you looking for more comfortable period products? Are you looking to reduce your plastic waste?If you answered yes to any of the questions above, this is the right product for you.These things have transformed my life. No joke. I will never buy a box of pads again. Ever.For roughly $10, you get 6 reusable cloth pads and a wet bag. First, this is the best deal around, even among cheap and low quality products. For the price alone, you should try it. Second, all of the products are super well-made.I have extremely heavy flow. My periods last about 2 weeks, and the entire time, I soak through the large, thick, Always overnight maxi pads in under 2 hours. It's ridiculous how much blood I lose. Believe it or not, these things hold up to it way better than the off-the-shelf products. If absorbency is your concern, these stand a good chance of getting you to at least 2 hours. For lighter flows, expect a single pad to get you almost through the entire day.As for leak protection these pads are not overnight and do not extend all the way back and they do not have gussets. However, they do have a large absorption area, have wings, and have a waterproof layer.The pads are incredibly comfortable. As opposed to feeling like a diaper is sliding around in your pants and feeling sticky plastic wings stick to your leg, these feel natural and secure in place well. You don't suffer from chafing, awkward folding, and sticky plastic. Rather, you get to enjoy the feeling of wearing normal cloth underwear while still having protection.The pads fold and travel nicely. To make the pads more compact, simply fold it up into thirds, fold the wings in, and snap shut. They can tuck easily into a bag or purse, but may not fit well in a pocket. On the go, the wet bag is large enough to hold all of the pads, but small enough to remain portable, making this friendly for days out.If you are worried about the washing being gross or challenging, it isn't. At home, when you're done with a pad, simply run under the faucet and stick in the wet bag. If you want a more thorough preclean, then you can wring it out or gently rub it out under water. When out and about, simply slide the used pad directly into the wet bag and either clean at home, or skip the preclean altogether. The pads get thrown in with the rest of the wash so long as there are no strong scent detergents or fabric softener, come out clean every time, and can be dried with the normal laundry as long as drier sheets aren't used.The pads are discreet. Rathe than announcing to the world that you are bleeding as you attempt to open the crinkly plastic wrapper of traditional pads, these are a quick and quiet snap measure.For the pure look of them, my friends have seen these out in the open and not known they were pads (while folded up). There are multiple cute pattern sets to choose from, and even if you get a set with a white pattern, the blood washes off clean and clear, keeping it a pristine white.On top of it all, these are an environmentally friendly alternative to pads and tampons that are intuitive, have little to no learning curve, and don't come with the discomforts of a menstrual cup.Honestly, I would normally spend more than this on period products for one cycle alone. The fact that there are 6 pads gets me through a whole day. When washed at night, these can used again the next day, which allows for this one purchase to last the entire cycle- no extra pad purchases necessary. Moreover, after the costs are recouped, every time you use a reusable pad, you save yourself more money.After a few months of use, these things work and seem to hold up (no loose seams, snaps falling off, discoloration, reduced absorbency, etc.). As long as you can stomach seeing your own blood and carry a purse around, these are a great option and I highly recommend giving them a try. You may never go back.

Not impressed
I’m not impressed. It felt awkward to wear, didn’t stay in place easily. Felt bulky in back. (Afraid it felt like it stuck out like a sore thumb). Maybe it just takes time to get used to.

Better than plastic pads, but....
I've had these for about 7 months now and I waited to review till I could get at least a few uses. Overall, I think these pads are good. I don't regret buying them. There are some negative aspects though; I'll list them by pros vs cons.PROS:**Quite absorbent. In my experience, they will hold a lot of menstrual flow. I have quite heavy periods, (for the first 3-4 days of my period, I have to use super or super plus tampons and double up with pads) but these soak up a lot before I have to change one. I was afraid that 6 wouldn't be enough to last on the heavy days, but they work fine.**Easy to wash. The thought of using a cloth pad that had to be washed felt kind of strange and gross at first, but I'm glad I went ahead and bought them. Because they are so absorbent, like I previously mentioned, they don't feel all sopping and gross like the plastic pads. They rinse well and launder easily. Usually what I do is in the morning, after having worn one all night (usually in conjunction with a tampon), I just rinse it in the tub while I shower. Warm water cleans them quicker than cold. But I never use hot water or dry them in the dryer as per the instructions. I just throw them in the washer after having rinsed them out and then hang them up to dry.**Economical: Probably the biggest pro about these. They cost only about as much as the super Always Infinity pads but they last SO much longer. The fact that I haven't had to shop for pads since I bought these is just awesome. Plus I do feel better knowing I'm not filling up landfills with more plastic.**Quiet: The Always I used to use sometimes made noise when I shifted around. I hated that. Not being made of plastic, these don't make noise obviously.CONS:**Size: I bought these cloth pads because the reviews were good and the price was good. I don't regret that decision, but I wish this seller had a multi-size option. These are great for normal flow days or on heavy days if I use a tampon. If I use these alone on the heaviest days though, my underwear and pants will be soiled. The size I got (medium 9.2 in X 7.2 in) definitely isn't ideal for overnight use. I'll probably end up getting another pack of the longest ones for that purpose. Either that or I'll follow one of these online tutorials to make my own. I would make mine more naturally contoured and maybe that would help with the leaks. Just an aside: I'm 5' 4", about 120 lbs so that should give you an idea of my size as far as how big a person I am relative to the size of the pads.**Kind of bulky: They do feel kind of bulky, not excessively so, but they definitely aren't like the Always Ultra Thins. I'd say the bulk is like a maxi pad or maybe an overnight pad.NEUTRALS:**Comfort: I can't say the comfort of these is a pro or con. Unfortunately, in that area, they have most of the same issues that plague plastic pads - bunching, shifting and twisting at times. They don't shift more than the plastic ones I used to use though, so I won't mark them down for that. They are soft, so I appreciate that. I noticed some reviews complaining about them being hot...I can't say I experienced that too much. Definitely not more than a disposable pad. I live in the southern US where temps can get upwards of 90+ degrees Fahrenheit too so it's not like I live in a cool climate.**Leaks: Again, in this area I feel they are similar to plastic pads. For some reason I've always had to deal with minor leaks no matter what type of pad I wear. It's always where excess fluid will bleed onto the wings and then end up leaking onto my underwear. I haven't found a pad yet that didn't have this issue. I hoped these wouldn't have that issue, but alas, nope. Maybe it's because my periods are so heavy.FINAL THOUGHTS/MISC:Overall, a good (not great) buy. Basically, I feel these are like plastic pads that can be washed and reused. Not worse, but not outstandingly better. Then again, from a money-saving and environmental stance, these are a must-have. I would have given them 3 1/2 stars if that was possible.

WAS A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT... 😏
These are definitely very comfortable and I like the designs on them but as far as absorbency goes I don't use these for heavy flow days. I did find some on Amazon that really seem to be working great for heavy days. They are more pricey than these ones but they do last.With the way these are made I was a little concerned about leakage.. I would only recommend these for light days or just as a panty liner as they do not seem to be highly absorbent. Also, when they are snapped onto underwear they are not very wide at all and so that was another reason that I was concerned about leaks with the design of these particular ones.. I would also recommend wearing tighter underwear while using these so that they stay in place and do not move around which could also cause a leak.As far as cleaning goes, right after use I'd rinse these in cold water until the water runs clear and then wash. I add a cup of baking soda to my laundry load to help with stains. These do not look bulky under clothing so that's a plus. If you are thinking of making the switch to cloth pads I would do research on different brands and invest in some of the best ones that you feel will really last. I was so glad to find cloth pads a few months ago.. I wish I had of found them years ago! I will say it really hasn't been any trouble using cloth. Also, it saves money, it's better for the environment, and no chemicals at all. Yay!Hope this review helps you☺👍

Comfy and odourless!
First time trying reusable pads and I am surprise at how much more comfy it was than the disposable ones. The only gripe i have is I cannot see how heavy is my flow cuz of the pad colour if I wish to monitor my flow, but am willing to forgo that given the high comfort level. Its definitely more absorbent than the disposable ones and surprisingly dourless too!

Excelente opción mas ecológica
Solía utilizar toallas desechables, pero me empezado a causar reacción alérgica y me decidí por esta opción, obviamente con muchas dudas, pero la verdad es que me sorprendieron, tienen excelente absorción, aunque no tengo un flujo muy pesado así que no se como funcionarían con alguien que lo tenga. Yo compré las medianas y son del tamaño de una toalla regular.
