IMPROVIA® Washable Underpads, 34 x 36 (Pack of 4) - Heavy Absorbency Reusable Bedwetting Incontinence Pads for Kids, Adults, Elderly, and Pets - Waterproof Protective Pad for Bed, Couch, Sofa, Floor

Love the size, the softness, very niice

Exactly what I ordered, work great.

I use this next to my litter box for the cat that does not like to going into the litter box and prefers to go just outside the box. I place disposable pads on top of this and that extends the time between needing to swap out and wash it.

*This is going to be very long, due to my thorough testing of various brands, but the information learned is worth it if you want to save money/save environment/save yourself a ton of trouble* Two factors that lead to my experiments with various brands of pee pads: 1.I’m poor, and I wanted to find the most economical/“bang for my buck” brand and 2. I work long hours and have two VERY large dogs that normally get taken out to potty, but are also trained to go on pee pads if nobody is home and they have to go. Let me tell you- these guys produce as much urine per pee as a large beer-drinking adult male lol. Needless to say, I’ve tried many different brands to see if they’re up to the task, and I’ve had to clean up SO many overflows, even if I do 2 or 3 layers of disposable pee pads. So far, the Simple Solution “All Day” variety (NOT the regular kind) have been the absolute best at absorbing the largest quantity of urine without leaking for their size. I’ve also done my own tests to measure the max limit of cups of water each brand can absorb, and the “All Day” pads by Simple Solution far out-absorb their competitors. I could get a full 8 cups before it started overflowing or leaking. The next best brand was Four Paws “Wee Wee Pads”, but their normal pads and their “extra absorbent” pads had VERY little difference in the actual quantity of water absorbed. 2.5-3 cups in regular vs 3.5 in the extra absorbent. Psh. But they did perform better and prevent more leaks than a bunch of other lower end pads I tried. After a few months of buying pee pads and seeing how many trash bags I filled up each week, tossing them out each day, I felt so guilty for the constant amount of plastic waste that it was producing, and I also got tired of paying for another box of pads each week! So I forayed into the world of washable pee pads. There are an endless number of brands and some are labeled for people (bedwetting children or the elderly, etc) and some labeled for pets, but as far as how they function and their absorbency, THERES NO DIFFERENCE except the ones for pets may have a cute bone pattern. (Some claim they have an attractant, but my dogs peed on whatever I put in the area they were used to having pee pads in, so I can’t verify). I tried multiple brands of reusable pads, with a wide variety of quality and absorbency (some were just complete trash) but the absolute BEST one that I found was the IMPROVIA reusable underpad. Unlike others I tried, it has special channels that wick the wetness to the outer edges, where the fabric ALLOWS THE WATER PORTION TO EVAPORATE. WTF!? I was skeptical as always, but after putting it out during the day, when I came home it almost felt dry! Not soaked and heavy like the other brands I had tried. Not only that, but it didn’t stink of pee in the house, either! It blew my mind! Now of course, it has its limits, but so far I’ve even had the dogs use it for a few days in a row before washing it, and it’s blown me away with its absorbent capabilities and the evaporation function. And after washing in the machine, it air dries in an hour (as opposed to other brands, that come out heavy and soaked and take days to air dry). I’m not a bot, nor do I get paid for any of this info (but once again, I’m poor, so hey, Improvia, if you want to send a little money my way for raving about you to every pet owner I run into, that would be great! Lol). But really, I’m just a pet owner who wants to pass on some helpful info, and also encourage others to pick something more environmentally friendly than disposable pee pads. You don’t have to be a hippie to want to help the planet that you live on- every little thing you do counts! So I say, give the reusable kind a try. If you hate them, no big deal- it’s Amazon- just return them! But you might find that they’re actually better than the disposables, and will save you so much money! And if that happens, all I say is “pass the message along”! (And mark this review as ‘helpful’ so it can be seen by more people) :D TLDR: Best disposable- Simple Solution “All Day” variety. Better option- IMPROVIA reuseable pads (last all day and then some!) Will save you hundreds of dollars in a short amount of time, and will also help the planet :)

I bought these for puppy training. I have a litter of 10. The old pads I have been using get wet after only a few hours and then have to be washed. I am amazed that these pads are ok for several days each because they dry so quickly, the only reason they need to be washed is for odor. Sure saves on washings. So far they have been washed 4 or 5 times each and still look like new. Well see how they hold up to 100s of washings. Highly recommend.

Bought these for an elderly relative who wasnt having success with the disposable bed pads. The disposables were uncomfortable, wouldnt stay put, and the adhesive corners stuck to the sheets and left a paper and glue residue thats impossible to remove. These are 100 times better. And the larger size offers better protection. Their absorbency hasnt been tested yet but so far theyre working out very well.

Exceeded my expectations. Good value for the price.

I foster nursing litters for an animal rescue. For puppies, these are superior to the typical plastic-backed pee pads. Puppies have a habit of putting front paws on the pad and peeing right at the edge, or just off it. With traditional plastic-backed, pee runs UNDER. With these, the underside is just absorbent enough to minimize that. I prefer the plastic-backed for adults with larger capacity bladders. Washing was a little tricky in my top load no-agitator washer. They dont really absorb water like a towel. They dont become pliable and squishy like towels or sheets, so I had to rebalance the load often. They spun inconsistently. Pad only loads might improve that, but I was running two mixed puppy loads a day to keep up, so never had a chance for that. Because they were inconsistent in moist/dry after washing, I hung them in shower to dry. Caveats aside, I liked the first four pack so much I bought a second. I had two out for use, two on deck, and four in various states of drying for the last few weeks.

These are large and heavy enough so they dont bunch up. Very absorbent so they catch leaks or bleeding. Husband on blood thinner so least little place can bleed a lot. Easy to wash. Multiple pack gives backup in case of leaks or Spills.

Love the way they absorb. Stay where you put them. The only draw back is they dont absorb odors. When they are wet you know when you walk into the room. Ive bought these twice. 1st pk was to try them and the 2nd pk was because we liked them. I will buy them again if I need to. They hold up well. Washing and drying hasnt changed them either.
