BEEN USING DEPENDS FOR 12 YEARS FOLLOWING SURGERY TO CORRECT A SIDE EFFECT OF BRACHYTHERAPY. THE NEW VERSION FELT THE SAME AS THE PRODUCT IT REPLACED. UNFORTUNATELY, MY EXPERIENCES HAVE NOT BEEN GOOD. I USUALLY BUY 4 TO 6 PACKAGES AT A TIME AND THE PREVIOUS PRODUCT LASTED ABOUT A MONTH FOR EACH PACKAGE. I DID NOT KNOW THE PRODUCT HAD BEEN 'IMPROVED' UNTIL I RAN LOW AND BOUGHT 5 MORE PACKAGES. HERE ARE MY PROBLEMS: I HAVE GONE THROUGH 2 PACKAGES IN 5 WEEKS, SIGNIFICANTLY MORE EXPENSIVE! I DO NOT BELIEVE MY LEAKAGE HAS INCREASED AT THE SAME TIME AS CHANGING PRODUCTS, BUT IF I COULD FIND THE OLD PRODUCT I WOULD SURELY TEST THIS POSSIBILITY. THE PRODUCT HOLDS LESS VOLUME. WITH THE PREVIOUS PRODUCT IN 12 YEARS I HAD ONLY 2 PUBLIC ACCIDENTS WHERE THE URINE FILLED AND LEAKED (I CARRY SPARES) I HAVE HAD 6 ACCIDENTS IN THE PAST 5 WEEKS WITHOUT WARNING AND BEFORE I COULD GET TO A RESTROOM. IF THERE IS A TRICK TO USING THE NEW ONES, I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIND IT.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These leak guards for men from Depends are INCREDIBLE! Before offering them for use by my male relative, I had to test it out. Using a saline solution at 99°F, I was able to "leak" the warm solution at a rate of 16ml/sec onto the pad. It will safely hold more than 32 oz of liquid. After 36 oz, liquid begins to leak if you apply pressure. I've been showing everyone i know because that is an insane amount of fluid! Certainly more than the size of your average human bladder! I feel confident that this product will work for my loved ones.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These guard pads from Depend are great for providing protection against leaks. I use them for an elderly relative and these give him more confidence. They absorb well and keeps things dry. They fit good and are comfortable. I would definitely recommend them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great for absorbing and super comfortable, according to what I’m told! They are very thick and easy to use. No odor detected! It’s a huge bag with many many pads and this is worth the money!

I used to wear the shields but as I got older they were no longer able to protect me from wetness. I had tried the old guards a few years ago but found them very uncomfortable. The new ones are great for absorbency but I still find them uncomfortable because of their length they bunch up in my crotch. I wish you would make them about two thirds as long.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My father is almost 70 and I gave him a couple of the Guards to test and try out. He told me they were very easy to put on. They felt very thick and durable. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who has a weak bladder. They are great for accidentals! I’d give them a try if you know anyone struggling with leaks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great protection guards for men. These have been most helpful especially after a surgery. It helps to have these so he can make it to the bathroom slowly and not have to feel rushed. Also for night time sleeping. They are thick and very durable. It has a soft pillow like feel for comfortable wearing. It holds in odor. Good quality material for what you pay.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm impressed by the absorbency strength of these pads. It doesn't cause odors and it adheres well. It feels very comfortable and you don't notice it showing through your pants. Feels secure and the length of the pad is nice. The cost isn't too high either for 52.
