| Attends have a unique square leg cut that looks odd but is very comfortable for most people. Great padding coverage, double waistbands and six tapes make this a long-standing favorite where discreetness and comfort are priorities.
| Compared to the old Abena, the new Abena has a larger leg opening that fits some people better. Less padding area but more gel make the absorbency about the same, while cost per ounce has gone down compared to the old product
| The Abri-Wing performed admirably in our test. Although no thicker than Attends, it absorbed almost twice as much liquid. Cost per ounce is about average, which is surprising considering the additional cost of the velcro fasteners.
| The Molicare super was the surprise of the test, offering incredible capacity in a very slim brief. Heavy 'gel' construction makes it slow to absorb, but the performance is good nonetheless.
| No surprises here - the Molicare SuperPlus performs very well, as it should. The generous paper pulp + gel construction makes it a champ at wicking; allowing more of the padding to be utilized before needing to be changed.
| Another strong performer from Abena. The Super offers very good capacity in a much thinner package than the X-Plus. Cost per ounce is among the best, and press-out performance is outstanding.
| Although a bit expensive per piece, the Attends extended wear proves it self as the most absorbent made-in-USA product we have tested to date. High capacity brings the cost per ounce absorbed in line with oter premium adult diapers.
| The Abena Abri-From Extra slots into the Abena lineup between the Super and X-Plus. Althought it takes a bit longer to absorb, nonetheless holds nearly as much as the X-Plus without the extra initial bulk.
| Abena's vlaue line certainly does not skimp on performce. Although the Delta lacks the waistband of the X-plus and gives up some press-out performance, it nonetheless runs neck and neck with the x-plus for absorbecy, at a lower cost.
| Still the the best adult diaper on the market, The "original" Abena X-Plus has come back to claim the title of "most absorbent brief" in a big way. Soaking up over 1/2 gallon of liquid, it actually emptied our test container, yet under the weight of 150 lbs. just 1 ounce of liquid was forced back out.
