We got these to motivate our 3 year old daughter to potty train. She loved the characters, but the white ones with the group of princesses "painted" on the front, the princess pictures melted and flaked off in the dryer.

They have all fallen apart --gotten holes in the cotton part and the elastic has detached. Granted we have had them a while (6 months?) but all the other varieties we purchased at the same time have held up fantastically.

The elastic in these isn't covered with cloth so a child with sensory issues would probably be bothered. They fit more on the small size and did shrink a little. They also tend to ride up and give her wedgies which leads to her shifting around and trying to fix her underpants constantly.

At the same time we purchased some of the Gerber cotton training pants and some of the Under the Nile Organic Cotton training pants. Both of those have held up much better and work just as well as regular panties. They also cover more and don't give her wedgies.
