Wellness Briefs - not really impressed
Just received my first packet of wellness briefs. After using Tena Maxi Slips for a while I'd heard all the hype about wellness briefs and thought I'd give them a try. I don't mind the colour (for me being medium fit they are green), however I was disappointed with a couple of things.
Firstly, the fit was a little unusual and I found that they would fit ok across the back but end up somewhat loose across the front, no matter how I taped them up. The Second problem was the crinkle factor. Whilst this is not an issue around the home or in bed, I found that the plastic rustled A LOT (not so bad if you want the crinkle but a problem if you are a professional attending meetings all day).
There has been some discussion on the strength of the plastic outer shell, and I found the plastic to reasonably rugged. The dual action tapes secured quite well and the overall thickness was thinner than the Tenas.
In conclusion, I'll be sticking with the Tena Maxi Slip as I find them more comfortable, less noisy and capable of holding a comparable amount of liquids.
