Customer Reviews of Huggies Pull-Ups Training Pants with Learning Designs
Customer Review: Good product, but not necessarily helpful for potty training
Summary: 4 Stars
Because of the fit, this is the one Huggies product I preferred over Pampers. (I'm still loyal to Pampers' Swaddlers and now Cruisers for the twins, because the Huggies that we tried had leaked some weird gel "bits" or "pellets" when wet).
The Huggies Pull-Ups stretched better to fit my son, and if he opened the sides, we could reclose them with the velcro. The Pampers Easy-Ups absorbed well, but the tear-away sides couldn't be re-attached once he ripped them -- and they ripped pretty easily, sometimes just when he was pulling up a new one -- so they could be pretty annoying.
But our best discovery was Wal-Mart's White Cloud brand pull-ups, because they also had stretch sides with velcro AND were a lot cheaper (normally I don't like the store brands for diapers, but for us they worked as well as the big brands). The only negative was that my son loves Cars and Buzz Lightyear, which Huggies have (and Wal-Mart's pull-up training pants have Bugs Bunny).
But NO pull-ups helped with potty training. Not even the ones that say they make your toddler feel "wet" or "cool" when they're wet -- probably because they work too well at being absorbent.
Real underwear -- along with our big washing machine, and patience and time -- are all that did the trick for us.
Update as of Oct. 1, 2009: In response to a commenter who said her training pants from Walmart did not refasten, I went to check my son's current package of training pants (which he now uses only while asleep, just in case), because it HAS been about a year and a half since this was originally posted. Although I would not expect the exact same model of merchandise to still be available a year and a half later, I still am finding reclosable White Cloud training pants at my Walmart in central Illinois. They DO refasten, although the other person is correct about the strip not being Velcro (TM). It is a blue velcro-TYPE refastenable strip, and not a Velcro-brand (trademark name) fastening strip. And the current design being offered is no longer the Warner Bros. trademark Bugs Bunny. It is now a generic monster truck picture on the front. The sides are still nice and stretchy as I remembered.
Customer Review: not really useful...
Summary: 3 Stars
i dont think this is useful for potty training cuz its true that why he had to use the potty when he could pee in the diaper.And those stars are freakingly terrible.Although my son find it cool,he use to dance around and see the planets too.And he would not wake up when i call him to go to the toilet.And the annoying part is when i wake up,i get a soggy bed.So i decided to stick to pampers pull up,they absorbed more urine,but the bad thing is my son Michael always rip them off by the side cause he complain it is very hot,and i have to keep helping him wear till he finally wear it.But in night he will rip it off again as he find it hot,though i put powder.So i still stick to normal pampers as he could not take it off,he need me to help him take it off.So i think pampers are the best.Customer Review: Best disposable training pant
Summary: 5 Stars
Huggies Pull Ups are the disposable training pants that you want. The "velcro" on the sides is useful for changing accidents. Note that it goes the opposite way from most diapers, so you need to "wrap" the pants the opposite way when you are changing them. The pants also don't rip after a day of being pulled up and down. We were loyal to Pampers with the diaper phase, but Pampers Easy Ups have no velcro sides (so you must wrap each "accident" in a plastic bag, and the soiled training pants are harder to remove), and Pampers Easy Ups are very flimsy on the sides and tear easily, so even if your child has no accidents, he still will need several Easy Ups throughout the day, since they will keep tearing and falling off. Buy the Huggies Pull Ups and each one will last all day.Customer Review: A Little on the Large Side
Summary: 4 Stars
These are great if for no other reason than the graphics. My son loves the movie and is happy to put them on and show off his 'Big Boys' and the cars on each one. Also, they're good at holding in leaks and loads, which is why I gave them 4 stars instead of 3.
As compared to similar items, the Velcro sides are nice but they can be a pain if your child figures out how to open them. The other brand has sides that rip easily along the seams if you need to use them as a diaper but don't allow little fingers to open them too early.
Also, my son is 40 pounds and these are a little bit big on him. The age is about right on these but they better fit kids who are 38 to 45 lbs.
Customer Review: Easy on and off; good absorption
Summary: 5 Stars
I like these very well. They are not bulky and can be taken on and off, open and reseal. The absorption is quite good as far as training pants go. But traditonal or overnight diapers would still be needed at night and for naps. I started my son with these during the day several weeks ago. They appear to be comfortable and my son likes the Toy Story characters.
Just one thing. I wish all of them are Woody and Buzz. My son refuse to wear those with Just Buzz and no Woody. I now have a pile of Buzz only diapers sitting in the cabinet.
