These underpads have been a lifesaver for me and my family. They give us a lot of reassurance for our bed-bound family member and actually match the ones you will find in hospitals, unlike the weak, stretchy ones from drugstores. Yes, they are expensive (and the price keeps going up), but they are thick enough that there usually isn't any leak through, and strong and big enough that you can move the person by pulling it, even though you're not putting too much pressure on your back. Tip: double up on pads and just change the top one unless the bottom one gets stained. Read more

I bought these pads for my naughty cat, they are excellent quality. She likes to pee half in the box and half outside. I probably will get a little thinner next time, but these are worth the price and are very thick and sturdy and will last me a while: Read more
Many an elderly pet gets euthanized for incontinence, even though they're otherwise healthy. That's not a risk for my own 20yo cat, because as long as she's happy, purring, and in no pain, I'll deal with the urine, with or without these pads. But I get it; trying conduct life outside the home when you smell like a crazy cat-hoarder is a problem. Even the best pee-pads for animals can't control the odor -- doesn't matter if they're scented or lined with activated charcoal or baking soda or that NASA stuff they put on odor-removing air filters. Not when the incontinence happens during sleep and the pet's fur gets soaked in urine. My little elderkitten is functioning well, touch wood, but she's very thin due to age-related muscle wasting that also makes her lose bladder control when asleep. She's healthy but fragile, and I don't like to bathe her unless it's dire (she could get chilled and sick very easily). And with asthma in the house, scented products are verboten even if they did work. Oy, the STENCH of her pee-fur. It was queasy-making, especially after she marinated on a wet piddle-pad on her heated bed (which was most of every day). And it transferred to the carpet, the furniture, clothing, anything she touched. I'm relating all of this so you'll know just how gross and unsanitary it was. The final straw came when someone refused a ride in my car because she couldn't go back to work smelling of cats. I went on Reddit to see what nurses recommended, and read about Ultrasorbs. The cost made me feel faint, but I was in a situation. And what the hell, I'd already spent a small fortune on ordinary pads; I figured at least these were big enough to cut in half. The pics are of her majesty. In the relevant photo, she's snoozing on the first Ultrasorbs I put on her bed a couple of months ago. (Having just had a back-end bath-and-blow-dry, she was too crabby to let me arrange the pad. She was on it before it was fully unfolded, and what queenie wants, queenie gets.) Not an hour later, she peed in her sleep. I waited for the stink of toasted urine to arise . . . but there was nothing. And I do mean nothing. As advertised, the polymer soaks it all up and the top layer keeps the moisture inside. Dry to the touch, literally. Medicare, please please cover these when it's my turn to need them. The REALLY amazing part is the fact that the pad actually deodorizes her fur. If she gets soaked while napping elsewhere, sleeping smelly-side-down on an Ultrasorbs pad knocks out the odor, even if I don't get a chance to clean her up first. Someone who doesn't live with her every day could probably tell a difference between "deodorized by the pad" and "deodorized by a butt-bath," but I sure can't. Anyway. The length of this review is directly proportional to how much I love these pads. If you've made it this far, thank you for listening to my TED talk. Read more
These are totally worth the money. Because they are so strong, they can last longer than other bed pads. They are absorbent enough for me to squeeze some water on the the area I need to clean off as well as using wipes and they keep the bed dry and don't tear when I'm moving my bed bound friend. The large ones cover the width of a hospital bed (36") very easily and they are strong enough to use to reposition someone in the bed. I will be buying again. Solid, reliable product. Read more
Edit.. disappointed with the most recent delivery. The bag it comes I. Was slashed and partially ripped. I ripped it a lil more to be able to count them all. They were all there but still gives me the creeps that these were opened and than had another clear bag wrapped around it. So obviously someone shipped this knowing it was ripped and shipped anyway rather than sending a different pack. Have bought these several times and will continue to buy. We tried reusable ones but they made him very hot and itchy. They do wrinkle up under you but I don't see how that's avoidable if you are mostly bed bound and mobility is limited. These are more for just in case and ease of mind for us. So they haven't gotten soaked. A bag has leaked on one before and it didn't seep through so I think they would hold a bit of liquid without leaking. Read more
I bought these pads for my mother-in-law. She occasionally has some leakage. But the other day she did not make it to the bathroom and had to actually urinate on the pad. The pad held all of the liquid and it did not get on the bed at all. They can soak up a lot of liquid. I would definitely recommend for anyone needing something like this. Read more
These are FABULOUS‼️ THE BEST THERE IS OUT THERE, will save your linens on your bed, and will serve the patient well as they go through physical challenges and need assistance. The patient was me🙏 and was pretty much bedridden for 2+ mos. Many times I couldn't even get out of the bed to my handicap toilet so I'll. We found these, and it totally took away the fear of ruining bed linens. PLEASE give these a TRY, cause you won't be dissappointed Read more
