Hours of support for medium-heavy flow
Comfortable to wear and provides hours of support for a heavy flow. Applicator is just as straightforward as the plastic one and throughout the day you will forget it is there.

All Tampons contain chemicals, do better.
I used to like these and I appreciate the cardboard much more than plastic however upon learning about the chemicals in most tampons I’ve stopped using them.

I bought these at a great affordable price
I really have a hard time finding these with the cardboard applicator. I prefer these, as the plastic applicator is shorter and thicker. I do not get the same coverage as these. I have a large flow and I really think these are the best quality.

Great product
This is the only brand that carries the Ultra size, that I find best for days 2-3 of my period. I love the applicator on all of their tampons! I love that they offer variety boxes to work for everyone as their flow fluctuates.

Comfortable
Easy to use, applicator is smooth allowing a gentle insert. Very comfortable and the absorbency is excellent which allows a high rating for leakage protection.

Leak free
I’ve used tampons since I was a teenage. I don’t think I’ve ever strayed from tampax and I don’t plan to start now. They’re great, absorbant, don’t leak and best of all, comfortable and I barely notice them.

Absorbing
I really like these tampons they have leg protection as they fit perfectly and they give me comfort and also always use them while I’m at work because I feel like it absorbs everything

No leaks and very comfortable
I've always been a fan of the tampox cardboard super size. I've never had any issues with leakages and always felt that it was very comfortable and absorbed well. I like that it comes in a cardboard sleeve so that I can also recycle it.

Absorbent
I found this cardboard applicator a bit of a faff. I found it would stick to the skin when inserting which made it painful. The actual tampon worked great like the other brands I’ve used

While we're glad the tampons were absorbent, we're sorry to hear they were painful when inserting, Jasmin! Safety is our top priority, and all our products are thoroughly evaluated to ensure they are safe when used as directed. Based on your experience, we recommend discontinuing the use of the tampon pack. Your comfort and satisfaction are important to us, and we'd like to learn more to share with our Quality and Safety Team, as this is not the experience we'd want or expect when using Tampax. When you have a moment, please give us a call at (800) 523-0014, 9 am-6 pm EST, Monday-Friday.

Long barrel but uncomfortable insertion
Absorption is great with this product but insertion can be uncomfortable. The barrel is long which is ideal compared to plastic applicators. Not my favorite.

Long lasting comfort
These are my go to menstrual product and I have never had an issue with leakage or absorption levels. If your flow isn’t exceptionally heavy these can last you many hours per one tampon. They are not noticeable and you can go through ur daily routine feeling comfortable.

Good
Tampax is my favorite brand of tampons. I have fewer leaks with them versus other brands. These old school cardboard applicator ones work well consistently. They're pretty comfortable, and as mentioned, don't leak on me. I wish the cardboard applicator was a tad bit sturdier, and it would be great if the paper wrapper were a little larger so that you could place the used applicator in the wrapper with greater ease. My most favorite tampons are the Tampax Radiant, but these are more economical, so I switch back and forth.

Love the cardboard applicator and product!
I have used this product for 20 years now and it is the only kind I like and am comfortable with. The pearl and the radiant do not work for me and I have leakage every time with the pearl or radiant. The ones with the cardboard applicator are a staple for me in my life and have been getting very difficult to find. Please, please, please do not stop making this product, I have several years left where I will need this product.

Always great absorbency
Great absorbency but not the best for use, I find the cardboard applicator isn't the easiest to use but other than that I can't fault the product.

Spend the extra money and get the plastic applicat
The applicator sucks! However once I got the tampon in it didn’t fit because it was loose and therefore was leaking the absorbency is fine but these are not comfortable.

poor design
This likely was designed by someone who didn’t use it. I tried to see if I could love the idea but after multiple trials, I should give this zero to 1 star, due to poor design, look cheap, rough and discomfortable insertion, half of the times with issues, softened paper cover, cannot launch it due to cardboard issue, pain…. If you cannot design this better, you should take this out of the market.
