Let me tell you, as someone who's gone through more puppy pads than I can count, these Absorbz pads are a game-changer. The first thing I noticed was how thick they are compared to other brands - no flimsy dollar-store feel here.

My 8-month-old golden retriever puts these pads through the ultimate stress test daily. What amazed me was watching them handle his 'morning tsunami' without leaking. The WETLOCK technology actually works - when I roll up used pads, there's zero drippage (a miracle with a big dog).

The size is perfect for my wiggleworm pup who never quite aims center. Even when he hits the edges, the multiple absorbent layers catch everything. I keep one under his water bowl too - no more soggy kitchen floors from enthusiastic drinking sessions.

Now about odor control: while not completely scent-free, it's way better than most brands I've tried. The neutralizer works well unless you're sticking your nose right in it (why would you?). Pro tip: I sprinkle a bit of baking soda underneath for extra freshness.

After three months of use, here's my verdict: these are the Cadillac of puppy pads. They've survived everything from puppy accidents to my clumsy coffee spills (don't ask). Worth every penny for the peace of mind they bring to house training.
