They work! Not sure what the 1 star reviewers were doing wrong, but these work frighteningly well. Like magic.I'd been contemplating buying some activated charcoal underwear, but at $55 for a single pair, and reading how hard they are to clean, I just couldn't justify it. But for $16, these were worth a shot.TMI, but the first time I tried these, my wife (sorry!) verified that it was a "bad" night, so I put one in before bed, and the next morning we were both in awe. Not a single smell all night.Yes, it is a little awkward having something wedged in your cheeks, but not uncomfortable or painful like some are saying. The freedom to not have to excuse myself every 5 minutes from a conversation is life changing.I will say, the small circular ones are kinda a bust, but the larger rectangles are where it's at. Like I said, a part of me thinks these were invented by a wizard. I don't understand how they can work so well.I should have my wife write a review, as she is the one that truly benefits the most from these.

First let me say that this product is in no way a joke. It is not for gag gifts and does not employ "strange marketing," as one reviewer suggested. It was designed to prevent embarrassment due to flatulence, and at that, it excels.I have suffered with severe flatulence most of my life, and of course, while I am asleep, I have no control over it. Many is the morning I've awoken to find the bedroom windows open and the ceiling fan going full blast. My long-suffering wife is supremely patient with me and an absolute angel, but there have been times when one might have classified this as tantamount to psychological abuse.I previously used a very different product to help with this and give her a little relief. It consisted of a pair of underpants with a carbon filter sewn into the seat. The material was semi-permeable, which was designed to force the flatus out through the filter. This was only partially effective, as gas could escape from the waistband and leg openings, but it was better than nothing.Recently, though, the company went out of business rather abruptly, and I was forced to seek an alternative. That's when I came across DiscreetZ and decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did.DiscreetZ has completely eliminated the odor associated with my farts. My wife reports not one whiff in the week and a half that I have been using them so far, which is absolutely unprecedented. As a bonus, they have reduced the noise associated with passing gas to the point that she is usually unaware that anything has occurred. This has the added bonus of no longer requiring me to work to hold gas in while awake, which was difficult and painful. DiscreetZ is a little miracle, and I am only sorry I didn't find out about them sooner.I do use them on the "highest setting," as recommended by the manufacturer. This consists of a small, thin round pad folded in half and tucked against my anus, then one of the larger, rectangular pads folded three times to form a pleat and nestled in the fold of the round pad. Those whose gas is milder may find either one sufficient, but for me, both are required. Double-sided tape is included with the pads, to help hold them in place, but I have not found this to be necessary.The sensation of having something tucked between your cheeks is one that requires a bit of acclimation, but after a few days, I didn't even notice they were there. For anyone who may be considering purchasing DiscreetZ but wavering due to a sense of squeamishness, I would urge you to give them a try. I have rarely found any product that so perfectly fulfills its mission, and the relief from both odor and embarrassment (not to mention the guilt over what I've put my wife through), is well worth any minor discomfiture of this nature.The manufacturer is also gratifyingly responsive and helpful. I reached out with a question shortly after receivng the product, and had a reply from the company president within an hour, on a Saturday. That's rare customer service these days.In short, I can't recommend DiscreetZ highly enough. It is an extremely effective product that has been an absolute godsend for my wife and me. The topic may be one that few want to think about, let alone discuss, but it's time we grow up and be adult about this. I find it unfortunate that the highest-rated reviews concern using it as a filter for face masks. Obviously, if you buy a product, you can use it for whatever you'd like to, but when over 40% of the reviews concern a use other than the intended one, it makes me wonder whether people are taking this seriously. Believe me, if you suffer from a condition like mine, you should.

I suffer from excessive and foul-smelling flatulence. I work in a call center, and we're not allowed to just take breaks whenever we want. (Not that I would be okay with making an ass out of myself and getting up and going outside/to the bathroom every couple minutes).But with that background out of the way, this has been my anecdotal experience:Day 1: I tucked the round one up against my anus and pushed a little bit, so that it almost went in but not quite. I also combined it with one of the larger square pads, folded accordion style. On this day, my many farts were completely smell-free.Day 2: I did just a square pad folded accordion style. It was mostly effective, but I did have a couple farts that still slipped by and either smelled. This could very well be because I didn't position it right or because it slipped out of place with my sweaty swamp butt.Day 3: I again used just a square one, and it seemed pretty much totally effective in terms of scent. No complaints or leaked smells that I noticed.As far as comfort goes, I pretty much forget about it for most of the day except a couple times. But it stays in place perfectly fine just being held by my small and unimpressive cheeks.So i think they're definitely onto something with this product, and it's a lot better than nothing, but it's not quite a 10/10 product... My main complaints are 1) There aren't really any clear instructions on how/where to position the pad, 2) the price per unit is way too high, unless you spend a ton of money anyways and buy in bulk.

Don’t waste your money on the packages circular pads. They are hard to place correctly, move out of place, and VERY uncomfortable. The rectangular ones work well but it’s a ripoff when you get mostly circles which are quite useless. They are non refundable, so I’m stuck with a lot of useless circles which makes the purchase price of the few rectangular pads in the package outlandishly expensive. I’m checking other sources.

I'm an active woman in my 70's who is "addicted" to dark chocolates sweetened only by monkfruit. Downside: they make me produce disgusting flatulence. Since I'm reluctant to give up my chocolates, I tried Discreetz. THEY ACTUALLY WORK!! Embarrassing as it is, I just had to share this in case others think these might be too good to be true. And they aren't especially uncomfortable. I have very sensitive skin, and these are fine.

This product works as well as can be expected...it does take some getting use to. The pads must be slightly inserted in the anal cavity to work, & you have to remember to remove it prior to using the restroom, & to reinsert it after. I will purchase again.
