Spinoff from another thread....
Do you like the new curved FRER? I think they are easier to pee on (not like peeing on the old type was hard) but am now hearing issues of them not getting very dark.

I did find it easier to pee on. But I have no ideas on the darkness, because it was a (thank goodness!
)
ETA: just did a quick Google search, and some of the stories about them are not good! But it seems like if there's color, you're OK. Most of the problems seem to be coming from indents.

@LovelyPlum: yeah I read those too! I got positives on the regular FRER too but the positives on the curved ones seem light for having missed my period. I didn't realize that was a thing until I posted the other thread!

Noo! There was something so quintessential about the look of the frer. I haven't used the new one though so I'm talking purely aesthetic. I guess I don't like change

I don't like the new ones. I always peed in a Dixie cup then put the test in the cup, so I guess it never mattered for me if it was easier to pee on. They don't sit flat the whole way anymore while you're waiting the 3 minutes though. That annoys me for some reason. I got my BFP on a new one, however. If it works then I guess it doesn't really matter.

@Anya: agree FRER was the best! Why change a good thing?!

I swear they're less sensitive. I got a positive on a wondfo and a digital before I did on a new FRER. I don't understand why they changed a good thing! And they just look weird

No, I had a bad test the first time I used one. I was dumb and peed on it instead of using a cup. And I NO lines. Not even a control one, but I swear I peed on it for long enough. The 2nd one I used a cup though and didn't have the same problem.
