5.0 out of 5 stars The best thing I've done for myself this year, December 21, 2006

I LOVE this product.
As a person with sensitive skin, it is so nice to find a product that is as comfortable and easy to use as this gladrags kit.

I was reluctant at first to try this alternative to disposable sanitary protection---if, for no other reason than it was different than what I was accustomed to.

After my first day of using the product, I could tell a big difference in my comfort level. None of the chaffing usually associated with disposables was present in this soft, organic cotton pad.

Even though I do laundry only once a week, it was simple to rinse the pads and then place them in my regular laundry. They came out clean and fresh, and ready to use. Of course, there is some staining. Therefore I recommend getting the pads with the unusual printed fabrics as the staining with be significantly less noticeable.

Reportedly, from the website of the parent company, the pads will last for up to 5 years with good care. For me, that ends up being quite a savings. Since I am working hard to pay down my student loan debt, that type of savings is very useful.

Additionally, there is a positive environmental impact for using this products as opposed to traditional sanitary protection. Suprisingly, disposable sanitary protection causes more problems in landfills than even dirty diapers!!

It's a small step to save the planet. An easy one to make. And it is so much easier on you if you have sensitive skin, or are prone to allergies or yeast infections.

I highly recommend it!

I recently took the plunge and made the switch to reusable pads. These Glad Rags work well and are very well made. I specifically like the way the wings wrap around your undies and snap in place. I also like the multiple inserts provided because they allow you to choose how thick the pad needs to be. I've been sincerely satisfied with the product itself, but even at the price they are here on Amazon, I still believe they are more expensive than they should be (hence, three stars instead of five).

When I looked at the pads I recieved, even as well made as they are, I quickly realized it wouldn't be hard to make them and felt a little ripped off at the price I'd paid. I later found several websites that offer patterns and ideas for sewing your own at a fraction of the cost. So if you are looking to purchase these and you have even the most beginner's skill in sewing, do a little online research and ask yourself if it might be better to make them yourself. You could spend $100 or more to purchase enough of these pads to last a single period versus $10-$25 in materials to make them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lasts for years!, May 13, 2008

I bought these pads 8+ years ago and they are still in great condition. When I first tried them, I did not like rinsing the pads out in the sink before placing them in the hamper, so I switched back to the disposable pads. After 1 day of wearing a disposable pad again, I realized how much more comfortable the soft cotton pads were and I decided it was worth the inconvenience of rinsing.

They are super-absorbent (you can go all day without having to change your pad) and last for years! Great combination of eco-friendly, cost-savings and comfort!
