5.0 out of 5 stars This bandage is the best!, November 1, 2009

Why is that?

- The fabric moves and stretches with you. Other bandages do not and pull off.
- The adhesive is strong. Albeit, I only use it on adults as it might be too strong for my kids.
- The gauze is absorbent and does not stick to the wound.
- The fabric breaths. I stay away from the waterproof types under normal circumstances as I want the wound to also get some air.
- The bandage stays put. I put it on and never worry about it coming off before it is time to change it.

Foam bandages are a nice second place, especially for kids, but for an adult, there is no better bandage.

This review is from: Band-Aid Brand Adhesive Bandages, Tough-Strips, Extra Large (1.75-Inch Wide), 10-Count Bandages (Pack of 6) (Health and Beauty)

I am a serious runner (1200 miles a year) and occasionally take a spill when I am on an uneven surface. My knee recently got a large scrape that required an extra large bandage. I used this product for several reasons:

1. It is easy to apply ointment to this bandage, and easy to apply this bandage to your skin.

2. This adheres very well, and as another review notes, stretches with your skin. The knee is a very tricky area for any bandage because every time you stand up or sit down you move your knee. I have had other bandages come off after repeated movement, but not this one. I probably sit at my desk then get up then sit back down, etc. more than a dozen times a day, but this bandage stays in place.

3. After the scrape started to heal, I went running, which meant that I was constantly flexing my knee. This bandage stayed perfectly in place.

However, before you use this, keep the following in mind:

1. For a large scrape or cut that is "oozing," I use a waterproof bandage because nothing leaks through, as will happen with this bandage (this is not a defect, just a normal characteristic of any non waterproof bandage when dealing with large cuts or scrapes). That is what I did for the first few days after I got the scrape on my knee.

2. The adhesive on this is very strong, so if you put it on an area of skin that has hair, you will definitely pull some hairs out when you remove it. Ouch!

Bottom line: This works great for active people so long as you don't use it on a large cut or scrape that is "oozing" (which may leak through) or on an area with lots of hair.

(What's this?)

"I am stuck on Band-Aid because Band-Aids stuck on me." These are great and I never pick up any other brand. I liked these big ones.
