To me, all prints are cutesy. I'm happy to see that they can be bought in plain colors. Now I have to decide what color I want.

Well Hopefully not bright orange, or pale colors. You will walk in the room and the pad will accentuate the terd right smack dab in the middle.! lol

I love T.Bumpkins pads! Just getting ready to order more, and I honestly love the prints. They look adorable and I never smell anything from them! I had cheaper pads, but I kept noticing a pee smell in the rooms where they pads are. Once I switched I no longer noticed any smell.

Haven't ordered washables yet, still debating, but these reviews are getting me convinced to do it. Someone mentioned a discount.....how do you get that? Also, I'm assuming they have a protective backing to protect hardwood floors, am I right? And, by the way, mom2twinz[B], I live about 20 minutes from Philly in Pennsville, NJ, (and used to have chickens! I miss my girls. )

The pads do not leak...but they will get wet underneath if the pup piddles at the edge. I am sure you could find a solution for that. T Bumpkins pads are awesome!

Here is a copy of 107barney's signature line regarding the discount:

I ordered 2 && LOVE them, As far as leaking. They wont leak. Like a user posted... The pup/dog may puddle on the edge. So in order to prevent that. I place my pads in a small litter box. Hope that info. helps.... : )

Is there a trick to washing washables? I admit mine are a different brand but I haven't had too much trouble with smells in the room, BUT the washing machine smells after washing twice with Tide and my housemates are starting to notice a dog pee smell in clothes washed after I use the washer... I just tried soaking them in a bucket outside, which is a fairly messy and unpleasant process... There must be a trick?

Add 1/2 cup of borax to your wash. Add a second rinse also and see if this helps. We haven't had any issues with ours so I'm glad you pointed out they are a diff brand. Good luck!

HeidiLee · 09-17-2013, 12:16 PM

Thanks! I was thinking about it and my problem might not be my pads, it may be the washable diaper can liner bag I put them in. That bag is what smells the worst... I'll try the borax though and see how that works.

HeidiLee · 09-18-2013, 02:04 PM

There's no option to edit/add to previous posts? Odd... Anyway, if anyone else has my problem: don't wash super absorbent things on the lowest water setting. Should be obvious but I didn't think about it. They were just absorbing all the water and then flopping around instead of washing. Whoops... Feeling fairly stupid now...

I really messed up with Tucker when I brought him home. I had washable pads ready for him, once he used them, quite easily.....he wanted to use anything cloth on the floor! I had to remove all of my throw rugs bath mats etc! I went to the disposable ones ...waited a week or so and tried my rugs again....no...he thinks it is his pee pad! Now I have no rugs and I use disposable pads and have no problems! Just wished I had not started him on washables to begin with and I may have saved all my rugs!

HeidiLee · 09-26-2013, 08:00 PM

My boy has a preference for throw rugs too but that started before I got washable pads.

buffy512 · 09-27-2013, 05:03 AM

I could never myself buying disposable ones anymore. I would highly recommend the T. Bumpkins ones.. Matter of fact I need to order some more!

I'm excited for the website to be back up

I'll keep checking but I'd love it if you can message me when it is back in action. Thanks!

How long do these last before you have to replace them? I currently use PeePee Pads and can get 100 pads for about $15. One box lasts about a year. I would have to buy at least 3 to cover where the disposables are now and 1 for a washing backup so basically that would be a little over $80 shipped. I could buy about 5 years worth of PeePee Pads for the same cost so was just curious if it would be worth it or is it just the principle of washables?
