Tissue thin. These gauze pads are advertised as 12-ply but are only 4-ply and that's of a thin gauze with a very loose weave. Maybe if you put three or four together you've got a useful pad, but that makes them about double the cost for a quality gauze pad at the drug store.

Don't waste your money.

The review by M.P. Gill for the very similar DKL1312 - Sterile Gauze Pads, 3x3, 12 Ply, 100/BX, White is very apt for these Dynarex gauze pads. Like those pads, these Dynarex pads are also made in China (maybe by the same manufacturer), and are extremely thin and porous.

In comparing them to 4x4 CVS brand gauze pads (which are also made in China), I'd estimate the Dynarex pads are only about 1/4 as thick (i.e.; four of the Dynarex pads stacked together are about as thick as one CVS pad). The CVS gauze pads I bought comes in a box of 25 and sells for a couple dollars less than these Dynrex gauze pads, so depending on how you use them, these turn out not to be a very good deal. In other words, these Dynarex pads aren't very cost effective for dressing larger wounds, but they're pretty practical when folded several times for smaller jobs (e.g.; for use in your mouth).

One final thing to note though: these pads have a chemical odor to them. I'm not a sterile gauze pad expert, so I don't know if this is normal or what, but the CVS brand gauze pads that I have (which are also sterile) don't have any noticeable smell at all.

great product here, ships really fast and the number of them in the box is amazing. in a regular store you pay this price for 10 of them, i will continue to order this as long as the price stay great

The pads are packaged indavudially as described but they are very thin. It would take several to really pad a wound. I will probably not be buying this item again but will go with one made in USA.

The item came as described in description and pictures, received in perfect condition, everything was wrapped and package perfectly. Would purchase again..

item is not as described. it's too thin than normol pad you buy at cvs or other drug store. almost useless. thank god it's relatively cheap. so not loss that much.

I bought this specifically to clean my dogs ears. They work very well! The one downside is that there is only one gauze per sleeve. So you have to open each gauze one by one. The previous guaze packs that I bought came two to a sleeve.

The product itself was a very good deal, and shipped quickly, and had no problems with the order, although, it was not what I thought it was, and was disappointed when I received it. That was an error on my part.

Not worth the money. The 12-ply pads in the retail stores are more expensive but are truley '12ply'. You have to use several of these to get the same absorbancy/padding as the more expensive ones. Unfortunately, these are not worth buying.

There are sometimes when smaller band-aids will not work, some bigger scrapes or cuts, so I keep these and some tape around the house for scraped knees and other things.

There are many bandages in the package, so you will always have more than enough on hand. Fortunately I do not use these very often, but those times when they are needed they are nice to have around. Folding them also helps add a bit more protection.
