I have been using Depend Guards for many years. The new "upgrade" was actually a downgrade in my opinion. Yes they are thinner but the absorbency is not like the old guards. The new pads get saturated quickly. There have been several days that I have had to change the guard mid day to prevent leakage. I will continue to use these guards until I am able to find another company that makes a similar product to the old guards.

Mens Depends Guards were modified and are not as good as original. I have used about half of 52 pkg. and had them leak 4 or 5 times. This did not happen with the original version. The new version is thinner and NOT leak proof. The original version was much better and I didn’t have this issue. I will go back to Assure pads that are not as good as Depends original but much better than the new Depends pads. You need to bring back the original Depends pads.

No confidence in the newly designed men's pads. I've been a Depends user for over 20 years and the new design is awful. Doesn't hold nearly as much as the old style. I'm looking for a replacement for my Depends pads. Sorry you had to change a previously good product.

Apparently no one did any field testing of this complete failure. the new pad has a wide top, (which might work for those with a very small P P) and a very narrow lower ( which is where I dress) and no cupping in the lower portion. I have been caught by surprise 3 times with a pad that failed my field test. I have been using this product for 9 years with no problems and was not aware a change had happened. I purchased two bags of the 84 count and will return the unopened one to the point of purchase and trashing about 60 of these inferior pads.

Number one I bought this product because I've been using it for years. I have lost cancer a younger age. Do not like the new pad plus when buying online still shows the original pad. I'm stuck with a whole double box because I didn't open it in time bought it again opened it. I am returning it. Do not like them. They leak they move. Don't hold me in place. So I am buying a different brand.

I have to agree with most of the reviews,in that the old product was better. I need to change 3-4 times a day with the new ones. Plus they do not stay in place. Maybe the odor control is better. But when the new ones leak it becomes very embarrassing

I am very disappointed with the new Depend Men Guards with Max Coverage. They are narrower and less absorbent. I have switched to another brand while waiting for Depend to realize their mistake. Please bring back the previous product: Depend Fresh Protection Guards for Men

I have been using Depend Guards for more than3 years. I had a prostatectomy. They have always been reliable. I was surprised when I could not find the old packaging. Once I opened the new packaging, I found out why. Some "engineer" decided they new best and completely changed the design and overall product. The new product is less absorbent, does not give the same coverage as the old design, and leaks excessively. I was down to one pad per day with the old design. Now I am using two to three pads per day. BRING BACK THE OLD DESIGN, OR AT LEAST MAKE IT AVAILABLE AND FIRE THE "ENGINEER" AND MANAGERS THAT CHANGED THE DESIGN! Your responses to other negative reviews are laughable and show that whomever is answering the comments really does not care what the consumers think. I would think that with the number of negative reviews, you would already be going back to the old design.

Why did you change a good product so drastically for the worse? Your new style of Guards are about as useful as stuffing a paper towel down my pants. They are too thin and small to stay in place or to ensure adequate coverage. For me, they don't stick well to the underwear and they practically ball up. Please bring back the old style or refer me to a competitor that isn't as progressive.

I have been using the redesigned Depends Guards for about a week. They are AWFUL. I have experienced frequent leaking. They don't last anywhere near as long as the old style. They are not much better than the Depends Shields. I will be looking for an alternative.
