I need a highly absorbant pad. Are these more absorbant than average chucks?

Yes, these are more absorbant than any pads I have ever found & used. They are GREAT and very THICK...holds a lot of liquid, they are the BEST pads! JD in TX

if you need a very absorbant pad, i find they do not have great absorbancy. they are thin. but for the purpose i use them for they are sufficient.

They do absorb some liquid and the plastic barrier keeps it from going through, but they are really cheaply made. The stuffing is thin and uneven and the edges on several pads weren't sealed, so it got all over the floor. We have a tiny old dog so they work for us, but I think they would bunch up if used for a person or a larger dog, or an active puppy. The only good thing going for them is the price.

These are the best I have found. The size is good, durability is good, and the price is good. These look kind of thin, but the absorbancy is great. We use them for an individual and also use them as potty pads for our dogs. We have been buying them for about 2-3 years and are very pleased. We tried about every brand available before we settled on these. Also, when you order, they arrive quickly.

Have never used chucks so don't know how to compare. I can tell you these are very absorbant pads. Hope this helps.

They absorb better than the ones at Walmart; better quality. As far as odor; they are also better, but no pad can eliminate all odors because of urine ammonia. These are the best I've found also, reading reviews of this product and other brands.

I really didn't think that they were that absorbent. The first heavy day I would have to take it out every hour or so and then always made sure I had a pad to go with it.

I bought them for their absorbency and workhorse quality. For show? Perhaps if they were freshly washed. I don't do much for show so can't really comment.

I'd say they have a sponge-like quality since the material is chamois-like. They can absorb liquid but I mainly use them for wiping down surfaces and light scrubbing.

I have them in work boots. Can't tell how absorbance they would be. Not plastic or rubber like.

They are incredibly absorbent. I use(d) them mostly while nursing and there wasn't anything they couldn't sop up. The only thing that I've found to be better are homemade ones with flannel, chenille and a layer of natural batting in between.

Both, after using four paws weewee pads for years I decided to try the staydry ultra underpads. Not only did I find these pads to be more absorbent for my two dogs but more economical as well, the dog pads cost 3 times more. Hope this info helps

The pads have a thin backing and the top is absorbent. The pads are soft and pliable--not very thick and definitely not stiff. I often put a pad on my davenport under a throw as my furry kids often sleep there.

Super absorbent however, my daughter stated that they weren't very "flexible".

they're pretty absorbant, haven't tested exact volume but they'll take a poodleful. Have to change after urination of course, but we leave our dog's on overnight and for 3-5 hrs during day

Not at all as soft as a diaper but very absorbent, I use mine as kitchen towels, they are finished.

Not sure, for the most part these are the best i've found, the extra absorbent ones didn't work for me, I have an older small dog, so imagine no more than 1/2 cup, haven't tested how much they would hold.

No, these pads work much better wet or at least dampened. Ater use, and when left to dry, they can become hard as a rock!

This is not absorbant but will provide a good waterproof backing, and if used along with an absorbant fabric like Zorb, will be very effective. I also use a diaper liner fabric that wicks the moisture into the Zorb, and is more comfortable to sleep on. Sew all three layers together and you will have a really absorbant and comfortable pad. I suggest small Velcro fasteners to attach it to the sheet or mattress.

In a word No & Yes. Let me explain, These pads are built with 2 layers. The White Top layer absorbs Fluid ( Urine, Etc...) & The Bottom layer prevents this fluid from passing threw to the surface it's laying on. Much like a Babies Diaper with built in Waterproof pants/liner. Except of course, these are washable & reusable.

Yes. I like them very well. A great deal for the money. One reason that towels lose their absorbency, is due to fabric softener, which coats the towels and they are no longer absorbent. If you stay away from the fabric softener, they will last a long time.
