After trying many different brands of training pants, I must say that these are the best. They protect the clothes and furniture from little accidents. They are very absorbant but still allow the child's pants to become a wet if they have a bigger accident, which is good for learning. They wash very nicely, feel soft even though there is a PUL layer inside. Our daughter regards them as underwear, unlike some of the other types with PUL on the outside. Overall a great product!
