I'm So Glad These Are All The Same Size
DISCLAIMER : Giving my opinion of the product. You may disagree, but this is not a review of the product on the whole. This is just my personal experience with the product.These are great. The place I work at has terrible plasters, constantly buying them from pound shops. I grabbed these for myself because I end up bleeding most days. They are waterproof non-fabric plasters, so they are more like electrical/insulation tape. I much prefer this because the fabric ones end up getting dust in too easily and fall off. On the other hand, if you handle lubricants (I noticed it with furniture polish) they can have a tendancy to lose the adhesive. Depending on where you put the plaster, friction can warp the elasticity out as well (I noticed it when having one near the end of my finger and using a screwdriver).I'm still giving them 5 stars because I feel that these "limitations" are necessary for them to work as well as they do. They stick so hard that most days I have to cut them off because they shred if you try to pull them off like a normal plaster. I don't really know what else I can say, they are plasters and they stop the blood really well, better than fabrics.

Strong Plasters
These are strong and waterproof as stated. Stayed in place while showering. Good size too.

Excellent quality
Always have a big stock of these in. They're not particularly waterproof, but I've never found any plasters that were

Decent plasters
A plentiful supply of cheap plasters in skin tone to apply when you've got cuts and insect bites in prominent places. Stick quite well where they should and don't stick where they shouldn't. Useful this time of year when I seem to get bitten by bugs/spiders coming into the house as they stop me from scratching the bite mark and making the infection worse.

Look elsewhere
Excellent plasters, I like the fact that they are all large and as other reviewers have said there certainly are enough of them. They stick to the skin well enough although I haven’t yet tried them in the bath, will come back and report LOL I have attached a photo of the plaster as one is not really available in the description.UPDATE Okay as I mentioned above I would come back and update my review once the plaster had a bath and we could test the “wash proof” element. Unfortunately it failed miserably. The plaster does not really stick to the skin after a few hours wear and certainly it does not stay on once subject to water. So if you’re looking for a temporary fix and you don’t need a plaster to stay on for more than a couple of hours, these are great. If you’re looking for something which will stick with you - or more aptly, stick to you - for more than a couple of hours, then I’m afraid you will have to look elsewhere.

thin, flexible, easy to use
Great for covering any wounds, don't fall off easily even if going to gym or exercising.

Very cost effective bulk pack
A large pack of probably the most often used and most useful size of plasters. You may get 6 or 8 in most multi-packs and they are always the first to go so other sizes build up when additional packs are bought.As luck would have it, only one has been used thus far and it stayed on for two days with occasional contact with water; with more frequent contact with water, it may not last as long. Most others, even those from the famous brand, seem to last a few hours at best.As a bulk pack, they are potentially very cost effective. The same quality is known to be offered in a slightly smaller size.

Good size plasters, but can peel on touch with water
These plasters are a very good size for small cuts typically to your finger / thumb.However, the adhesive weakens and the plaster eventually comes off if you wash your hands.
