I haven't tried the larger pads yet as I already have a stash of cloth period pads and menstrual underwear, but I've being using the XS as liners or when my flow is trailing off. The Purple Reign print is gorgeous (I have the matching nappies), they wash well, and are as good, if not better, than any other cloth pad brand I've tried. I'll have to get some larger pads soon as well.
