"Keeps the odor away they are thin but seem to be ok for my little guy."

"These pads are so thin & have practically no absorption. Two uses and the carpeting underneath is now damp and requires deep cleaning. Very disappointed with this purchase, complete waste of money. Not up to Chewy's usual high standards."
