Customer reviews for Poise Incontinence Pads for Women, Moderate Absorbency, Regular (252 ct.) forWish the outer package for each pad was bigger to cover when full.
Often if I sneeze or laugh hard I soak the pad. When I have to change it, the package is not large enough to fully hold it. If I'm in someone's home, I don't want to leave it in their trash can. I wish you had a suggestion of a proper way to dispose in public. Thank you!
Awful
Awful, used Poise for several years and the last I bought were way different. Now they have "my Little pony" coloring which fades on underwear, very scratchy elastic at the legs I have to cut out of each pad because I can't stand it and tend to wrinkle in the middle. Unfortunately I purchased two huge packages on Amazon, I had no idea they changed. Guess I'll just have to waste one and get something else. I have almost used one up but decided it isn't worth the agrivation to try to use them up.

No Wings!
I am using a cheaper off brand version of this product because I am using small amounts of various types of tape to hold the edges in place. This ruins underware. I used to love using Poise. But what's the point. I need to save a little $$ to help a bit with the problems of no wings. The "new" whatever does not work. I have an active job and life. The pads bunch up after a very short time. Then I get the edges of underware with spots of urine. Do you know how to get that out at work? I work 12 hours. It is NOT pleasant to smell like an old diaper. Embarrassing and disgusting.
ABSOLUTELY NOT AN IMPROVEMENT
I have used Poise pads for many years, currently using #4s. The new design is ABSOLUTELY NOT an improvement. It serves no purpose. Adhesive is scant, especially near the top, causing it to flip down and bunch. I never had this problem prior to this design change. The web site says that the new pads while thinner, have the same absorbency. They SIMPLY DO NOT! The narrowed shape change in the middle of the pad offers less protection also. I have had leakage problems at home or out for the day, and have to change multiple times during the day because of this as well as the lack of absorbency. I urge POISE to consider changing back to the old, and so much better product design. Until then, I am looking for a different brand..

Best Pads I've ever used
I had no idea that these pads were for incontinence. My mom tends to buy my pads cause I'm never really too picky about them as long as they get the job done. I tried my first Poise pad today and I've been in love. These make my period seemingly so much more tolerable. First of all the size is just right and there really is no bunching up. The only bunching up I've noticed is maybe a little bit around the butt area, but it's the farthest back area of the pad so it's only noticeable when you're taking your underwear off to use the bathroom. Secondly, the scent. These pads are scentless yes, but there is still odor protection. I have never seen or experienced a pad that actually delivers this. I change my pads probably 3/4 times a day on a heavier flow day and let me tell ya something, blood smells incase you didn't know. But this pad I have on currently is holding up! I can't smell anything! At all! OMG! Another thing is these pads are so comfortable. Some pads are very irritating while this pad is probably the closest thing to feeling like you're not wearing one. I've never been the type to have a favorite pad, all I know is I like long skinny ones with wings but these... they're amazing. They're also not overly bulky therefore could be used day and night. I just have to buy these again. I'm so glad my mom came across these because I'm loving them! Never change whatever magic these are made with!
Great incontinence product
Due to extreme medical conditions in my early age 20's thru my 40's, I have had numerous surgeries for a hysterectomy, bladder control, falling bladder, and other health problems, I have been using incontinence pads for 40 years...I tried many products but was never happy and always went back to Poise
Disappointed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new style with the blue strip in the middle are awful. They do not stay on place. I also can feel the bulk. Why change something that was good.. Bring back the old style.. I may have to switch products.

Revamped pad on #4
I have been using the #4 pad for years. Got a new supply last week and am very upset with the changes you've made! Why on earth would you make them shorter, put less glue on the back end so the pad flips onto itself and now the sides crush onto themselves to make a long lump in the length of the pad! The old style was just fine, why these horrible changes?

Allergic
Poise "very light", extra long, 10x drier, 3in1. This is the very first time I've had a reaction to any liner. Poise "very light", extra long, 10x drier, 3in1. At first, I wasn't sure it was associated. I had used them for about 20 days, and decided to change to another brand, not expecting my irritation had anything to do with this liner. After a week, I went back and used this liner again. Within hours, my reaction was even worse, like fire. I finally put it together that this liner was the issue. I don't know why it's the first time ever having a reaction. Is it possible a batch had the wrong concentration of bleach when being made? So, a couple of days

What happened to your product???!!!!!
I have been buying these for the last two yrs and have never had a problem until now. I was very upset that I felt like I had wet all over myself. I never had one fail me but this on did along with the rest of the package. I had just opened them that day and left to go to friends house. It is like the gel that is inside the pad that absorbs the liquid had been forgotten. So after I got home and cleaned up I took a few out of the package and did an test on the few I pulled out of the package. They failed just like the one I had on earlier in the day. I don't want to waste my money and go buy more but I am going to have to find something else to use that will work. I really hate spending money on stuff when they've come along and decide they need do something different to the product. Wish I had known that before I had opened a big new package and wet all over myself. Money wasted and now I have to spend more that I really don't have to spend. Please let me know what ya'll did to change them.
