Heavy flow and I’m sold! I love it!
I have officially made the switch. Never again will I buy disposable pads from the store. I normally buy the overnight super long pads bcs I have a heavy flow that WILL spill over if I don’t, but the sticky parts always get shifted. These heavy flow cloth pads have stayed in place, they are super comfortable to the point you I can barely feel them in my undies and they hold in my heavy flow! I’ve only had a little overflow once and that was my fault because I was in a rush and hadn’t positioned the pad properly.The instructions say they are most absorbent after 4-5 washes so I washed them 3 times the week before knew my cycle would start. I recommend either hand washing them daily or collecting them in the little bag for a couple days MAX and then washing them. To clean them I soak them in a baking soda and water mixture for at least an hour (neutralizes any stuck on scents) and then washing them on the delicate cycle using Dreft (infant laundry detergent). I could make time to hand wash them daily but I don’t feel like it. I dry them on medium heat for a 45-60 min cycle and they’re as good as new. They will feel a little plush after washing, I thought they were still wet so I kept drying but I think that’s the filling plumping up after washing. It’s not been an issue and hasn’t produced a moldy or stale smell so I think it’s meant to feel that way.Side note: Tampons have always been uncomfortable and they always make my cramps WORSE. Even the cups make my cycle more miserable than it already is and taking them out is always messy. Pads have always felt more comfortable but having reusable ones is most cost effective and healthy considering all of the unnecessary chemicals they throw in the disposable ones. I will 100% be buying another couple of batches of these. They are so cost friendly that you could realistically replace them every year (or even every 6 months if you’re a stickler) and STILL spend way less than replacing disposables every one to two months.

These are amazing!
I've been using cotton flannel ones for the past 10 years. Back in the day, when you could only find these from an Etsy seller. It was time for a new set and was a bit skeptical about trying these but the price was too good. Well, they are comfy, they don't shift or scrunch. Now mind you, I only wear full brief panties so I can't comment on using these with a thong or bikini style.So, I've used these for 2 period cycles before reviewing and so far they've exceeded my expectations. No leaking, no scrunching which means no suprise spotting on my underwear. So the way I wash these... everytime I change one out, I bring it to my utility sink where I keep a squeeze bottle of liquid detergent and I thoroughly rinse and hand wash, wring out and set in a small plastic box until I do my laundry on the weekend. Then I wash in a load and make sure I add a pre-soak to the cycle. I was worried about the plastic snaps warping in the dryer but nope, stayed exactly the same.I think if you're curious about cloth pads, this could be your entry into trying them out. It's cost effective imo and who knows, maybe you'll have a "wow, ok" moment.

Detailed Review
I will make this review as detailed as I can. Here's some info about me that may be helpful. My period lasts 5 days. My bleeding is light to moderate depending on the day, and I'm very thin (around 95lbs). I don't have any disorders, diseases, etc that affect my cycle, and I've only used disposable pads up until now. I don't workout, so I'm unsure of how well these hold up when doing vigorous activities. I usually change my pad 2-4 times a day.APPEARANCEI bought the medium pack of 6. They are around 8" or 9" long. There were 2 of each color (mustard yellow, gray, and green). They have grips on the bottom that are supposed to prevent shifting. It's the same rubber stuff you find on the bottom of socks sometimes. The wings are not in the center. They're towards the top and they have 2 buttons so you can make them fit around your undies looser or tighter.The wet bag that comes with it is small enough to fit in a moderate sized purse and it fits about 4 pads inside once you fold them up. It comes with a little paper that explains how they work, how to fold them after use, and how to wash them.COVERAGEI'm a stomach sleeper, so at times I have leaking at the top of my underwear towards my belly. However, I've never had this problem while standing upright until I wore these.I didn't stain my underwear while wearing these. However, I kept noticing streaks of blood at the top edge of the pad, so I dodged leakage by a centimeter multiple times throughout the day and night. Either the medium size doesn't have enough coverage for me or the issue is this: I saw 1 review complaining about the wing placement being towards the top rather than at the center. This is a problem. I believe that's why blood is gathering at the top of the pad and nearly causing leakage even when I'm not laying on my stomach. To help avoid this, what I did was pull the pad further up my vulva. This creates less protection for your butt though, so it's not an amazing solution.These are a bit thick for my liking. Also, despite there being grips on the bottom, it slides towards your butt occassionally. I just wear tighter underwear to keep it more secure. It's tolerable.SMELLThe pad itself well smell like whatever you used to wash it. When using it, the only thing you will smell is the scent of your own blood and body odor. Depending on the person and their hygiene, that may or may not be noticeable or bad. Speaking of body odor, these pads are not super breathable. I sweat a lot, especially at night. So, I'm not too happy with wearing pads in general because of that.ABSORBANCYThe absorbancy is great. I have no complaints. The 1st day of my period is pretty light, then it gets heavier over night and onto the 2nd day. I started my period in the afternoon and was able to wear it until noon the next day. I don't know if it can last longer. I didn't want to go that long without changing it.WASHINGWith any reusable pad, it's recommended that you wash them before 1st time use. A google search or the instructions paper they provide with the pads can give you info on how to wash them properly. However, I was too lazy to read as there were many different answers to this online and the paper, to my knowledge, did not address how to combat stains.When I 1st got them, I put them in the washing machine with laundry detergent. No bleach. They came out fine. No damage. Then, I layed them across my dresser to let them air dry. They were completely dry within a full 24hrs or so, and my bedroom is a bit cooler than room temp.Immediately after I finished using 1, I drenched it with cold water and gently scrubbed at the blood stains with an old toothbrush. I did this until the stains were as faded as possible. I squeezed the pads until the water ran clear to make sure any blood absorbed into the 2nd layer was removed. A lot of blood came out. It looked like I was dumping a bowl of blood into the drain. I was impressed because it didn't seem like it absorbed that much. I felt dry the whole time I wore the pad.Then, I put them in the washing machine with laundry detergent as soon as I could. No bleach. To prevent blood from setting in the fabric, I kept the pads wet with cold water and in an open bag until I could throw them in the washing machine. If you will keep them wet, it's important you keep them in an airy environment so you don't get that mildew or rotten scent going on. They were left like this for about 4 days.After throwing them in the wash, I let them air dry. Doing this caused no damage. However, stains were left behind, so leaving them wet for days didn't work (as I suspected lol). They were much lighter than before, but still noticeable since these pads are light colored.I don't prefer staining but it is what it is. They're pads that no one will see other than me. I was too lazy to do the extra work to throughly remove and prevent the stains. If staining bothers you like it does for me, I recommend buying dark colored pads. None of my dark gray pads I got from another seller have visible stains.OVERALL THOUGHTSI've been looking for ways to save money, be comfy, and worry free during my period. This was my 1st time using reusable pads after hearing so many good things about them, and it's going to take some getting used to. For the 1st 2 days of my period, I found myself wishing that I bought disposable pads instead. Then by the end of my period, I was okay with them.The reason why I initially didn't like them is because I was annoyed with soaking and rinsing the pads right after use. It's of course more work than just removing a disposable pad and tossing it in the trash. I found an easier solution which is rinsing my used pads while I'm in the shower. That made it less annoying, but there are instances where I can't always do this such as when I've already taken a shower earlier and need to change my pad again.I briefly read online that it's best to rinse reusable pads immediately to avoid staining, but considering that I won't always be by a shower or appropriate sink to do this, staining is inevitable (maybe unless you know a special technique to get them out).Overall, I SOMEWHAT recommend these specific pads if you don't mind the minimal coverage, wing placement, thickness, and light color which makes staining more obvious. I won't be buying these again. Here is why.Along with these, I bought some more from a different seller and I prefer those a lot more. The other ones have more coverage, have their wing placement in the center, are dark gray so the stains may be harder to see, and they're thinner thus more comfortable to wear. When I scrub it with a toothbrush, it also seems like the stains come off easier. Instead of keeping those wet, I just rinse them and throw them right in my laundry basket with other dirty clothes, but I make sure they stay on top for atleast a day so they are getting air to dry. Overall, using those put me more at ease.

Good quality
Absorbent, quality fabric. It's best to rinse/ hand wash first, then put in the washing machine. It takes a lonnng time to dry, I have to put them in the dryer and still have to hang them up to dry after. The carrying pouch is very nice quality and they fold easily. They don't stay in place when wearing them, but that is to be expected with reusable pads.

Excellent for small bladder leaks.
I'm guessing they would work on most days for menstruation pads. Wouldn't trust them for a flood, but they are very durable and washable. I only wish the skin contact side was rayon or cotton. It seems like polyester fleece. Good product for the price! I would buy them again.

A year and a half and still holding strong!
Been using for a year and a half and still love them! Some stains but that is to be expected. I use them for my normal period days, which are still heavier than some people.
