Gerber Baby Boys Infant Toddler 4 Pack Potty Training Pants Underwear

Im editing my review for the product. The training pants are legit and work well. I prefer gerber pants for potty training as they are thick and absorbent. I like gerber because they soak up most mess and I usually have to clean up is residue or a small puddle vs other brands ive tried and every small potty accident is a huge mess. I also add a small amount of bleach in with the load of laundry and the colors and fabric seem to be holding up. I am not that happy right now. I got the shipping package on time, opened it, took the items out, and put them in the dirty laundry (still in their original packaging) until I had a full load to toss them in with. Well today was laundry day and when I opened the bag I nearly gagged and my eyes burned. It smelled so strongly of vomit that I immediately dropped the bag, washed my hands and scissors, returning with gloves, mask, and bleach wipes before continuing. I was very tempted to just bag and trash the items, but we really needed them for my potty training toddler. The smell has permeated my entire house and is still lingering, despite tossing the bag immediately in the outside dumpster. It was so bad I could taste it and showered thoroughly. My family even wondered "who threw up?" based off the smell. As a consumer, right now in the midst of the covid-19 pandemic I am lividly ticked off. I am literally about to have a baby any day now and have been told if I get corono virus I would be separated from my infant for 2 weeks, or worse, get my infant sick and in the hospital. This is one of my worst fears. I am angry with the people who made/ packaged this item for not having any sort of quality control or health control. I am really peeved at the fact that companies keep outsourcing to other countries with zero concern for their consumers health. I understand how outsourcing is important, but, really, there has to be some way that you can somewhat control the environment that your products are made in. If I get sick I am going to be ultra pissed. As far as the items themselves, I don't know yet. I haven't had my child use them yet, but we have used Gerber training pants for all of my other 3 kids and loved them. I will try to remember to write a review on the item whenever I feel like I am over this vomit anger. However, based off of the fact that there was someone spewing vomit while they made/ packaged the item, I am skeptical on their quality regulations as well. Read more

I washed and dried these as soon as I got them and I think they are great quality. They are super soft for my son and I'm happy the elastic is covered (softer around his waist) My son is 2 1/2 & 25 lbs. He is somewhat small and they fit with some room to grow as well. I would say they are true to size. The padding is great! It is a little bit of padding but it can make the difference because it catches just a little more. I wouldn't even expect these to catch a full accident and I don't think anyone else should either. My son is pretty close to being done potty training but sometimes he tells me he has to go pee after he started to and then stopped because he realized he was peeing in his underwear & these are perfect for his stage in potty training. But I think they would work well in any stage of training. I think uderwear training is what sped up my son to being so close to done with it, wish I would have had these in the beginning! Definitely recommended! Read more

Very good material, fit. Thick enough for training. Wish they had more colors Read more

My son loved these! They handled accidents pretty well and since he felt the wetness, honestly I feel it helped train his faster. They are very soft and comfortable to him(he is quite picky with clothes and certain materials)Highly recommend! Read more

We are using this item on a 5-month-old, 18 lb baby. We have been doing EC with him for 2 months. Having the training pant is very helpful, as it is much easier to remove and replace than other kinds of baby bottom covers that use fasteners (like diapers or diaper covers). The pants are smooth and soft, with enough absorbancy to catch accidents when we miss his cues. Since these are actually intended for an older baby that is probably walking and has a different body configuration, the fit is acceptable, but not perfect. The leg openings don't have a lot of elasticity, so they can't simply be pulled up into position--his legs are too chubby. On the other hand, the smooth leg openings are very gentle on his fat little legs and never leave red marks or restrict his movement. He has a very nice derrière for a little guy...and the pants don't really have any shaping. It would be nice if there was a little more room in the buttocks, and a little less rise in the front. I realize that if I want a "designer" product, I should expet to pay much more. I'm not complaining--we are happy to have this smaller size because he really looks cute in them and he is obviously so much more comfortable than in steamy, moisture-proof diapers or diaper covers. We weren't really considering going diaper-free....until we read about EC and decided to give it a try. Now that the baby knows that we are willing to respond to his cues to eliminate, he has become very consistent with letting us know when he has to go. It's amazing! It would be nice if Gerber also made these in 12 months size or smaller. For more information on EC, search for Natural Infant Hygeine (NIH), Elimination Communication (EC), or Diaper-free Baby. Unfortunately, the networking groups are not very active. But when your family and friends find out that your baby prefers to stay clean and dry, and they notice that the baby is happier and your diaper/laundry/footprint are reduced, they will be proud of you and your infant. I also purchased the less expensive version of this product (not "sport"). The fit and performance are the same. Read more

These are great for potty training. They are thicker to help absorb some leakage but they aren’t fully absorbent. Read more
