Advantages: Good absorbancy

Disadvantages: Falling apart at the seams

There are made by Procter and Gamble and l think Gamble is the right word!!I have written this under general because l have used a multi-pack box. It is said to be 'The right choice of protection for your entire period - in just one box. Always multibox offers you a combination of three different pad types - all in one box. You choose the pad that is right for you, when you need it' (written on the box). This includes
10 normal
10 normal plus
and 8 long plus and they are all pants. They were falling apart, l certainly wasn't falling about laughing either.

The towels are a pleasant enough shape and do not feel uncomfortable to wear. The absorbancy is ok and it is a good idea to have all the different shapes and sizes in one box (at an offer price of £1.99). They have an open weave fabric which is very soft and the sticky bit on the underside sticks well.

The problems start when you try to change one. It is not a pleasant job at the best of times but with these products it is made 100 times worse. As you remove (sitting in your ever so graceful postition) one from your knicks it falls apart, the top mesh comes completely away from the bottom, the cotton woolly bits drop everywhere and if you cannot juggle and catch bits quick it will end up all over the floor of your loo and then you have the unsanitary and just not nice job of picking up the stray bits. UGHHH!!!!

Each one that l tried whether it be normal or with wings or nightime, the same thing happened. I thought l had got clever in the end and took it off while standing and holding it over the loo but that caused its own problems as l (well you can imagine what happened then) if not tough, l'm not going to elaborate.

This company definately need to go back to the drawing board with this one. Whats the use of having a product to use for something as personal as this when you spend all your time worrying about whats going to happen when
you change it!

I know we always expect a lot but come on they say always, (always what?, a mess)!!!!

Maybe it was a faulty pack. Perhaps l should contact Always.
Thanks for the feedback.

I've used them for years too and never had this problem :) Maybe it was a faulty pack?
