Great for guinea pig cages
Review by Kristina Demsile on 11/24/2015I bought this material to make liners for a guinea pig cage. It works a lot better than the old microfiber drying mats I was using. Zorb is exactly what it says it is - super absorbent. It's working so well I may by another few yards so I'll have more time between washer loads. The idea is simple: sandwich a sheet of Zorb between two pieces of anti-pill fleece, sew together, and voila! Instant small-animal-cage liner, without the mess of wood or paper shavings!

- Great for menstrual pads
-
I use this for menstrual pads. Thicker is a little better in this case because a thinner absorbent core paired with a PUL bottom layer and wicking top layer don't always have enough body to keep its shape and stay in place. But this zorb does. Though 2 layers does feel a bit bulky. For period underwear I do think even one layer of this is too thick and prefer the thinner newer gen zorbs.
Overall Value - Love it!

I WOULDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING OF IT

I love this fabric! Super absorbent, easy to sew and of quality!!!
Overall Value - Love it!

I love original zorb.. It's easy to work with and has minimal stretch.. I just wish it could be a little more affordable..
I use it as an absorbent core layer for reusable cloth pads that I make for donation and sometimes myself.. 1 layer of Original Zorb = moderate absorbency and 2 layers of Original Zorb = heavy/overnight absorbency.. I combine it with flannel since Original Zorb can be susceptible to compression leaks..Overall Value - Good Product
-
Its amazing absorbent and dry fast.

Has amazing absorbing strength. Wish gen one original zorb had silver too.
Overall Value - Worth the money
-
This fabric is fantastic for the absorbent layer of cloth pads. It holds a lot of fluid and cleans well. The untreated version does not hold odor and lasts for years.
Overall Value - Nice product

I love how trim this fabric makes my diapers. I like it with a layer of hemp fleece.
