IMPROVIA® Washable Underpads, 18" x 24" (Pack of 4) - Heavy Absorbency Reusable Incontinence Pads for Kids, Adults, Elderly, and Pets - Waterproof Protective Pad for Bed, Couch, Sofa, Furniture, Floor

These underpads have been wonderful. They are large enough to cover almost the entire twin bed that we use them on and seem to be ultra-absorbent since they have protected the mattress from multiple accidents. They machine wash and dry beautifully, no shrinkage, no stains. After buying one package of 2 underpads, I found I liked them so much that I bought a second package so I don't have to do laundry quite so often. These are a great product!

*This is going to be very long, due to my thorough testing of various brands, but the information learned is worth it if you want to save money/save environment/save yourself a ton of trouble* Two factors that lead to my experiments with various brands of pee pads: 1.I’m poor, and I wanted to find the most economical/“bang for my buck” brand and 2. I work long hours and have two VERY large dogs that normally get taken out to potty, but are also trained to go on pee pads if nobody is home and they have to go. Let me tell you- these guys produce as much urine per pee as a large beer-drinking adult male lol. Needless to say, I’ve tried many different brands to see if they’re up to the task, and I’ve had to clean up SO many overflows, even if I do 2 or 3 layers of disposable pee pads. So far, the Simple Solution “All Day” variety (NOT the regular kind) have been the absolute best at absorbing the largest quantity of urine without leaking for their size. I’ve also done my own tests to measure the max limit of cups of water each brand can absorb, and the “All Day” pads by Simple Solution far out-absorb their competitors. I could get a full 8 cups before it started overflowing or leaking. The next best brand was Four Paws “Wee Wee Pads”, but their normal pads and their “extra absorbent” pads had VERY little difference in the actual quantity of water absorbed. 2.5-3 cups in regular vs 3.5 in the extra absorbent. Psh. But they did perform better and prevent more leaks than a bunch of other lower end pads I tried. After a few months of buying pee pads and seeing how many trash bags I filled up each week, tossing them out each day, I felt so guilty for the constant amount of plastic waste that it was producing, and I also got tired of paying for another box of pads each week! So I forayed into the world of washable pee pads. There are an endless number of brands and some are labeled for people (bedwetting children or the elderly, etc) and some labeled for pets, but as far as how they function and their absorbency, THERES NO DIFFERENCE except the ones for pets may have a cute bone pattern. (Some claim they have an attractant, but my dogs peed on whatever I put in the area they were used to having pee pads in, so I can’t verify). I tried multiple brands of reusable pads, with a wide variety of quality and absorbency (some were just complete trash) but the absolute BEST one that I found was the IMPROVIA reusable underpad. Unlike others I tried, it has special channels that wick the wetness to the outer edges, where the fabric ALLOWS THE WATER PORTION TO EVAPORATE. WTF!? I was skeptical as always, but after putting it out during the day, when I came home it almost felt dry! Not soaked and heavy like the other brands I had tried. Not only that, but it didn’t stink of pee in the house, either! It blew my mind! Now of course, it has its limits, but so far I’ve even had the dogs use it for a few days in a row before washing it, and it’s blown me away with its absorbent capabilities and the evaporation function. And after washing in the machine, it air dries in an hour (as opposed to other brands, that come out heavy and soaked and take days to air dry). I’m not a bot, nor do I get paid for any of this info (but once again, I’m poor, so hey, Improvia, if you want to send a little money my way for raving about you to every pet owner I run into, that would be great! Lol). But really, I’m just a pet owner who wants to pass on some helpful info, and also encourage others to pick something more environmentally friendly than disposable pee pads. You don’t have to be a hippie to want to help the planet that you live on- every little thing you do counts! So I say, give the reusable kind a try. If you hate them, no big deal- it’s Amazon- just return them! But you might find that they’re actually better than the disposables, and will save you so much money! And if that happens, all I say is “pass the message along”! (And mark this review as ‘helpful’ so it can be seen by more people) :D TLDR: Best disposable- Simple Solution “All Day” variety. Better option- IMPROVIA reuseable pads (last all day and then some!) Will save you hundreds of dollars in a short amount of time, and will also help the planet :)

These work amazing for wee pads for my dogs, they don't leak through and wash out completely. I have 12 of these and have had 8 for more than a year and they still work just as good as day one. They stay put pretty well except for when the dogs get the zoomies then they will move but that's to be expected.

Soft, wash well, did the job perfectly. I like the darker color for hiding leaks and stains before they are washed. Always make things look tidy and fresh and are comfortable for the patient

The pink color goes with my little girl pup's decor perfectly and looks much better than those industrial blue puppy pads that she habitually chews up! I can't believe how fast it absorbs wetness and it is really easy to wipe up any brown stains. I ordered a four pack and this is perfect for 2 pads per week. The only thing is, she is only 3.5 lbs and I tried this with my 7.5 lb male dog, and his pee is much heavier and causes visible stains. You'll need a much bigger size for the bigger animals and I would think about the color choice. My vet recommended washable pads and these are life-changing, seriously!

these are great soft cover washable only complaint is they are a little stiff and can curl bit but definitely waterproof, pretty happy with them

Bought a second set in another size because they actually work that well. Every other brand I’ve bought leaks. My 5yr old is a very heavy wetter and also a very deep sleeper. Thickest pull-ups I can find and he still pees through almost every other night. These actually stop the pee from getting onto his mattress. I ended up moving the smalls I bought first, to our bed for when he wakes up in the middle of the night and crawls in on my side. No more pee stains on my side, and no more shampooing two mattresses first thing in the morning 😭. Also, I used one to cover the temporary dog bed while her main one was in the wash. Even with the flooding from a 60lb pit-bulls full bladder, the blankets underneath weren’t even damp or the slightest hint of smell. The look and colors are pretty much identically to the pictures. Good sizing too, they actually cover the majority of the bed. The smalls are almost the width of a twin bed, and the mediums (34x52) are about 3/4 the length of it. Only downsides is I wish they made them all like 3-4 inches wider, so they could have a little bit extra to cover from seam to seam on the sides. Then I wouldn’t worry about my son wiggling and rolling in his sleep and possibly getting to the edge where it doesn’t cover. I wish they would make these as fitted sheets as well. That way I can put it on and know that even if he wiggles to the foot of the bed or ends upside down, and pees where the underpad isn’t at, that the bed is still protected.

We have seven (7) dogs due to combining households. We took out the dog door due to adding cats to the home. This has caused some confusion and dog pet messes in the home. This pad is a lifesaver! I had been using old towels, but the dogs chewed on those (and lightweight pet pads). The dogs leave these pads alone. No destruction. They soak up everything! They are easily washable. As a disabled adult, these pads have saved my life. No more washing the tile floor several times per day.

ممتاز جدا وقد تم الشراء منة عدة مرات يمتص بشكل ممتاز وما يسرب الملاحظة الوحيدة انه بعد الغسيل يحتاج اكتر من 3 ساعات حتى ينشف وهذا منطقي بسبب طبيعتة اللي تمتص السوائل

The mats work well . However ! After an initial wash ,one of the mats tore on the underside . I contacted the seller and all I got as a reply was that they would pass on my complaint to manufacturer to see if they could improve the quality in the future . The mats are not cheap and if the durability is poor they will soon need replacing

I am a disabled senior who has severe incontinence issues, day and night. I have purchased the little incontinence bed pads from Walmart and they are a waste of money, pure and simple. I have tried many other incontinence bed pads and I would always soak right through them. I took a chance and ordered these Improvia washable underpads and LOVE them!!! To be very blunt, I use one at night and will be honest, I hang it up in the bathroom to dry. I put 3 papers towels under neath the bottom of them so any liquid can drip out. But they prevent all my bed soaking at night. I also notice they do not smell of the urine. I am impressed and am ordering myself another package of 4. I may or may not need the extra ones, but I do have 3 beds and live by myself and will not take anymore chances. It might not seem like a big deal, but I am now able to sit in my living room and watch tv using one of these Incontinence pads under where I am sitting. To me they are well worth the purchase. And these are completely washable in the washing machine.

A bit smaller than measured which is fine. Not great quality, doesn't have that absorbent feel other brands have- it's quite thin with a waterproof backing.

Super absorbente, no traspasan los liquidos a la tela, recomendable
