New Design is HORRIBLE!

The new design is horrible! Removal of the elastic side gathers and elimination of the true cup shape, means they leak extremely easy. The new product was issued without warning or announcement on packaging. New design will double my cost and mean I am never safe from leaks. Horrible way to treat 40 year customers.

Dependable and Good Protective Guard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The men protective guard pads works well in my daily activities especially when I am doing outdoor activities for a long period of time. The fitting and size fits well and does not cause any discomfort when in a mobile situation.

Great value with good absorption

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I shared Depend Men Fresh Protection Maximale with a very impressed neighbor. He praised its comfort, secure fit, strong absorption, leak protection, and discreetness. Overall, he recommends it for reliable overnight protection and a quantity of 52 pieces.

Poor product!

New design VERY disappointing. They do not contain, leak around edges. They are now on par with the most generic product from your dollar type retail outlets. A consistent user for 16 years - no longer.

New design sucks

The new design sucks. They leak out the sides before they’re half full. I can’t believe you took the best product on the market and made it the worst. Did anyone actually test this design??? I will not buy this version of the product again.

A Complete Product Failure

Absorbency and Dryness - poor A complete product failure in a new design. Will Depends go back to its previous Guards design, or will it improve the product. This new product doesn't accomplish the one job it has, which is to keep men dry.

The worse pads ever

I'm praying that you don't discontinue the old one's, because some people need the extra padding and don't want to have to use full depends. I am washing more clothes than ever now because of leakage.

Bring Back the Old Guards

Where can I buy the old style of Guards. I hate what you have done to the product. It is less absorbent. It doesn't fit properly. I have to change it more often, and it is not comfortable. Bring back the old style.

Low profile, breathable, gentle on skin all day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Low profile, not bulky under clothing. Very breathable material that is gentle on the skin with no irritation. Held up well throughout the day. Good for sensitivy.
