Highly recommend
I buy these for my mother-in-law who has incintinence that can range from a little dribble to full loss of bladder control. We initially tried "depends for women - maximum absorbency - size XL" and while those are just fine for the dribble days, they do NOT contain large amounts of liquid and leak very easily. I have even had them fall apart coming off and the liquid absorbing gel inside got all over the floor and it was a mess to clean up! I initially only bought one bag of these abena anti-flex air to try bc they are more expensive, but we haven't had a single accident since switching so I will be sticking with these.PROS:1) 2 levels of absorbency and the most absorbent I have found on the market and they seem to absorb fast (the letter/number combo on the bag tells you the size & absorbency. ex.: L1 is large - level one aka "plus" which absorbs about 34oz of liquidL3 is large - level 3 aka "extra" which absorbs about 74oz of liquid2) plenty of elastic to keep these pants up even when substantially wet and the pull up style is easier to wear for someone who still uses the bathroom whenever possible. Although difficult to change when soiled bc you have to remove your shoes, pants, etc., I still find it easier than putting a traditional "tab style" underpant on an adult who is standing up.3) elastic leg cuffs prevent leaks...even watery bowel movements. Now that does not mean you've got all the time in the world and I don't know how well they would hold up if you sat down like that, but they'll hold long enough to make it to the bathroom without a huge mess. ALSO these have tear away sides to make cleanup easier and an extra tape tab stuck to the back to tape the diaper shut with after rolling it up.4) wetness indicator is very useful so you can see exactly where the undergarment is wet.5) my MIL had experienced some rashes and skin irritation while using the "depends" brand. That has cleared up since using the abena abri-flex air. These seem to keep the moisture away from her skin better and I don't notice any odor even when I know she needs to change.CONS:1) the are kinda pricey at $1.41 each (depends were about $0.65). We do use less of these bc they are more absorbent and hold up better so it's not too bad.2) they can be hard to open... it's like trying to open those little plastic bags in the produce dept! The trick is to open them from the leg hole and stick your hand through. Easy enough for me, but my MIL has Alzheimer's and can't remember so she's always complaining they're stuck :/ and she finds it frustrating.3) these do have a snugger fit bc of all the elastic so they are a little harder to pull up. On the one hand, that's what makes them stay up even when wet, but on the other, it's def harder for someone with dexterity, balance or flexibility issues to pull them all the way up. I have not had them tear while putting them on though which is good.All in all, if you can afford these slightly more expensive underpants, I would highly recommend them! Less accidents means less changing & less laundry for me and more independence and less embarrassment for my MIL. Win win :)

100% the best this for overnight protection and dignity
It is VERY rare I write a review. But I am doing it b/c I am compelled to help anyone who is going thru what I am right now. My 68 year old mother was recently diagnosed with dementia. On occasion she gets a UTI, which in a dementia patient is a completely different event for a younger women. They experience delirium, incontinence, and become very off balance. During my mother's last UTI - she lost all bladder control due to such elevated confusion. In addition there were a few incidents of bowel incontinence as well. In emergency, I ran to Walgreen and bought a variety of overnight adult pulls-up (Depends, etc). They were terrible. They leaked. They made her sweat profusely from all of the plastic against her skin even when dry. In an attempt to help my sanity and preserve her dignity, I google'd to death. I read a zillion reviews. And finally I bought these. BEST THING EVER. No leaks - no extra liner even necessary. No crinkling sounds. No sweating from gross cheap plastic elasticity. It was true to size and able to be put on lower in the front and higher in the back (what a women would need to sleep) without compromising protection. Which in turn could also be put on higher in the front and lower in the back to meet a man's needs. They didn't tear after numerous up/down for toileting. Yes, they are pricier. But well worth every penny. Less sheet washing. Less sore skin. I would never buy another thing to help my mother for this problem than these Abena overnights. Totally true to size and absorbency.

Comfortable
This company is AWESOME. Product is great, but their customer service is great as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. They were very kind to accept my return when my Mom passed and no longer needed them. Choose this company. :)

Great absorbency!
They are super absorbent. Very stretchy and comfortable. A little pricey but seems to be worth the price.

better than the best USA made ones...
There's nothing more embarrassing than having to ask "where do you keep the condoms" than maybe "where do you keep the adult incontinence diapers?" So some stores, like Fred Meyer, now have a sign for that aisle, to prevent the inevitable, "CAN I HELP YOU?" followed by loud blast of rack roaring vibes while customer service tells the whole store and all the customers in it what AISLE THE ADULT DIAPERS ARE ON. Incontinence sounds so much more medical. It IS actually a medical supply, but don't hold your breath for MediCare to pay.So, why buy this one and pay more? Because it lasts twice as long, does not get wet or leak. You end up taking it off because it's been awhile...not because there is anything wrong with the diaper. Also, it's softer and it molds itself to your body, looking and feeling more like, well, panties, which is what it is shaped as.Then they even provide this little tape band-aid thingie you can stick on your toilet and when you're "done" roll it up in a tight sanitary roll and tape it shut. You might not notice it, it took me awhile, it's a grey tabbie that pulls out, but it helps and no other diaper (adult or baby) has it. Abena thinks of everything, without having to make an embarrassing call to them to ask...um er...what do i do when it ________???Update April 2012...seller says they are also chlorine free, that is a claim no other adult diaper maker can or does make, so Go Denmark! (Danish company makes these).Gerson + Wells Press + Organics-to-you have helped me take off 10# of flab to date, and result for some reason is I have a bit less incontinence. So dieting does help with this embarrassing problem. It helps a great deal to have a pack of these if you're going to do a liver cleanse, coffee enema, etc. and you're not home all day doing it. Even if you are, it's a great help.There is one company I did locate who makes adult cloth diapers. I hope now I can wean off diapers and not have to buy cloth ones...in any event, you're not alone if you're reading this. I am "only" 53, have required these for 2 years, but looking for ways to improve health. There are a great many natural health and alternative health customer reviews on amazon.com now for readers and customers to self-educate. Of course, you do have to try it to test the product and the review. I encourage you to do that, start with one package, then see if a case is cheaper, normally it is as cheap as Costco wholesale to purchase by the case on amazon.com as a prime member, in my experience over the years. Plus, no embarrassing audio messages are blasted over any PA!

many kinds and this one is hands down the best I have found both for absorbency amd comfort
I have tried many, many kinds and this one is hands down the best I have found both for absorbency amd comfort.. He weighs 170 lbs. and totally incontinent, he wore the medium for awhile and they were good but when i tried the large it was even better. Still have not figured out what the little plastic tag on the outer back which it a little sharp and not meant to come off??? Could do without it.
