Essential dressing for poorly legs
I use this frequently after having ulcerated legs. I find it easy to use, helps keep the skin protected and underlight compression, used with other compression dressings and it does give comfort.I have bought the larger content this time and find it is a reasonable price. Found the packaging rather too muchfor the size of the item, although most recyclable. Would not hesitate in ordering this again when needed.Would recommend it for anyone with a need for dressing the legs.

Great buy
I have Celitis in my right leg which I use for driving etc I also have a swollen foot and ankle and lower bottom of my leg is swollen. I have dry skin on my shin and the cream I need to use can leaves a grease-mark on my clothes as it takes a while to sink in. I am 6 foot tall with mainly long legs. So being able to cut whatever length I want off the roll is fab. I cut double my leg length and fold over my leg to give me 2 layers. The cream soaks into my skin and a little on the bandage but stops the grease on my bedding and clothes. It washes well on 30 or 40 deg. It doesn't frey much when cut, dries in no time and doesn't lose its shape or elasticity. Not tight ring marks on my legs. Very stretchy but also good grip on my skin. Spot on for the job.

Sleeve bandage useful to hold dressings in place --- ometimes.
This is effective for retaining non-adhesive dressings on the leg at a fixed place or places, provided the dressings have rough or textured surfaces facing the leg or there is a wet wound facing the dressing. If the dressings are smooth facing the leg and the wound dry, additional holding means e.g. surgical tape is needed for the dressing, as the sleeve is less effective and some alternative or additional means to hold the dressing in place is required.

Does exactly what it says; excellent quality, strong & stretchy
Non-adhesive, very stretchy, generous 10m. Fantastic.I've been struggling to find a bandage for my dog's injured hind leg. Everything fell off. This slides up and stretches over the upper part of the leg, holding an absorbent pad underneath. It's just the right amount of tension, enough to hold things in place but without pinching. My dog can sleep with this on overnight, no trouble at all.The fabric is soft, pliable and easy to cut with scissors. I had to cut two small holes in the Comfi bandage to insert a tie to hold it up, and was very pleased that the holes in the Comfi fabric did not tear. The stretched, but easily held. Very impressive.I also have made a longer bandage that goes from the front left leg to the dog's hind right leg. This holds it in place. (I cut a slit in the the Comfi fabric that the dog's legs could slide into.)Fantastic product, escatly what I needed and so hard to find elsewhere. Five stars all around.

Great bandage but "sheds" a lot
Miles better than other tubular bandages I've used. The material is soft & comfortable, and lightweight enough that double/triple layering is not a problem. The fact that the elasticity only works one way (so you can stretch it widthways around the limb but not lengthways) is really helpful as it means it stays in place better than other bandages. Considering I've paid a similar amount for just one metre of lower quality tubular bandage before, this is great value. Unfortunately it just "sheds" a lot of small pieces of material, this seems to be worst when you first cut it and gets better over time but never quite goes away. I wouldn't recommend placing this directly over any open wounds as the debris could get inside and cause complications.

Good.
Excellent product. Soft. Good size. Holds dressings in place. Only downside is although it does wash it shrinks in length and looses elactisity which makes it expensive for every 7 days a week use if need to keep buying a new box

Great for holding catheter bags
I'm using this doubled over to hold a catheter bag. You can put a hole in the bottom for the drainage or just lift the bag out from between the layers. The actual leg holders that are made for the purpose are more than this price and here you get 10 metres of the same stuff. This is the best price too as others are only selling 5 metres for this price. You can also use for holding dressings etc.It's stretchy and holds the bag secure so I'd recommend it.
