A Budget-Friendly Option for Wound Care Needs
I'm currently in the middle of addressing some modest wounds on one of my legs and was excited to get the chance to try out this JJ Care Premium Gauze Roll 30-pack.<br /><br />These arrived nicely packaged. Each roll is individually wrapped and is 4" wide by 4.5 yard long. The promised roll of free medical tape was also included, though it's a mere .5" wide and certainly wouldn't be a factor in my decision-making regarding this product.<br /><br />These gauze rolls are noted as being longer and thicker than many rolls. They also are noted as featuring breathable gauze. They are noted as 100% polyester and free of latex. I appreciate that JJ Care mentioned the latex free feature as I do have a latex allergy.<br /><br />The first time I used a gauze roll I actually applied it myself. As a paraplegic with somewhat limited fine motor skills, this can be difficult. I found these gauze rolls to be flexible and I was pleasantly surprised with how easily I could wrap my own wound. I was a little disappointed with the overall thickness of the gauze as I could easily poke a hole through the gauze and had to be ultra-careful to not do so. This ended up also being true when a friend of mine helped me wrap the wound as she also was pretty easily able to poke a hole through the gauze simply by trying to apply it.<br /><br />Overall, however, I was pretty easily able to adapt to the thickness issue and I don't necessarily think that's wildly different from other gauze products including name brands. I actually expected much worse considering the price point here and was pleasantly surprised by the product's performance.<br /><br />The gauze adhered to my skin without sticking to my wound. It also was able to wrap around my bandage and firmly hold my bandage in place. I'm not quite willing to call this a 5-star gauze roll set, though I'm quite impressed by it and it easily performs better than I expected. There's no question I'd purchase it again.<br /><br />I really like that these are individually wrapped, latex free, and 4" in width. It ideally meets my needs and definitely has me looking at and exploring other JJ Care products. These are much more durable than I expected and they are definitely a quality, affordable addition to my wound care needs. I've purchased these twice and I've been happy both times.
