Fabric Bandage, Oval, 7/8" x 1.75"

Very good product. The little band aides have a nice size gauze pad and they stay in place until you remove them, even staying in place after getting wet. I very seldom write a review, however, I do think these little oval band aides are an exceptional product at a great price too.

Dealmed Oval Bandages are just what I needed to help heal from a minor surgery. For some reason or another you can’t find these on the shelf at most drugstores. JS

Stick on skin well

I've been using these Dealmed Fabric Oval Flexible Adhesive Bandages for quite some time for tiny wounds, blemishes that may have opened or after taking my "T" injection. They stick well and stay on, even in the shower. Pros: Adheres to the skin, stays in place, perfect for small wounds, blends in with skin tone and is economical. Cons: If you use a salve or Neosporin and it gets on the adhesive, they tend to not stick as well. Make sure if you use ointment, you apply a very small amount only on the pad.

Perfect for protecting my elderly mother's skin lesions.

I play guitar and use the fingernails on my right hand extensively, but during certain sport activities they get chipped and broken, so I'll wrap all five 'picking' fingernails, during some of those activities. And may wear a glove in addition. For my use the adhesive is a bit too strong, and leaves residue on my fingernails, when on for hours, which may be fine for most uses and is not a deal breaker for me. I would prefer that the pads were a bit thicker, but again, not a big issue and not an issue at all for typical intended uses. I will likely by these again. I do wish though that bandaid makers would offer a rolls of bandaids that simply peeled off the roll without us having to deal with each package individually. You can imagine perhaps, the clutter and tedious task of picking up or trying to pick up 15 pieces of wrappers each time I need to 'suit up' lol.

Bandages are sturdy and stay in place longer than others I have used.

UPDATE: I am downgrading these bandages from 5 stars to 3 stars. I've been using them more, and have come to realize that I'm not crazy about the adhesive! They DO stick well, and are VERY sticky. But that's the problem. They stick so well that they leave a residue on my skin when I remove them. And if they get wet BEFORE removal, they leave even more residue! And just the act of pulling them off when wet causes them to shred and leave little strips on my skin. If I had known this before my purchase, I think I would have stayed with Coverlet despite the price difference. _______________________________________________ The Dealmed Oval Bandages are less than half the price of Coverlet. BUT ... I have used Coverlet for decades and was reluctant to try something different. Since these were more affordable, I decided to give them a try. I'm happy with them, and would buy again. Length: Same as Coverlet - 1.25in Width: Slightly narrower at 7/8in Color: Slightly darker Pad size - Same as Coverlet They are nicely stretchy, and easily moldable to your place of application. They are definitely sticky enough to stay on even when wet. The box was NOT sealed so, because I'm not a naturally trusting person, I counted them to make sure I got 100. I counted 99, but that could have been my error - close enough - didn't want to count again! The individual wrap of the oval is the same as Coverlet. The only thing I can't attest to, as yet, is whether I would have any reaction to the adhesive. Even with the Coverlet, I sometimes get redness or itchy-rashy. It's not consistent, so maybe just my body chemistry or location at the time. But, since the width of the Dealmed is smaller, that reduces the amount of adhesive contacting my skin - so I'm good with that. To sum up ... These Dealmed Oval Bandages compare favorably to Coverlet, and are much more affordable, and I would buy this brand again.
