No difference between this and name brands
Our three-month-old loves this formula! We have noticed no difference between this and name brand formulas. She eats it just fine, no digestive issues. Great product at a great price!

Sudden price hike unreasonable
I am extremely disappointed in the sudden price hike in this product. It was an amazing deal. But suddenly, it costs $20 more! I've cancelled my subscription.

Good formula, bad container/scoop design
I've never tried generic formula before, but I researched it and felt comfortable trying it knowing that they are the same as national brands. We have had problems finding an infant formula that doesn't give my daughter bad gas pains while also not producing bad BMs.We originally used Enfamil infant formula, then Enfamil newborn, the. Enfamil Gentlease. None of these helped her gas pains. So I switched to Similac and found that Similac Total Comfort helped the gas issues, but has a really bad smell and produced pretty awful BMs. This Good Sense seems to ease the gas pains AND doesn't smell bad or produce those horrible diapers!My daughter takes it fine - it must be just as palatable as other formulas.The powder dissolves ok in water. Similac dissolves better, but Good Sense and Enfamil dissolve about the same - a few solid flakes are noticed at the recommended water/powder ratio.We have not noticed any tummy issues, including gas pains or bad diapers.I really don't like the way the scoop is held - the end of the handle is slid into a holder above the powder. I don't like that you have touch the scoop part to slide the handle into it's holder. Although I wash my hands, I just thunk that avoiding holding it by the scoop is adding unnessecary unsanitary practices.The scoop handle is longer than necessary and made from a more flexible plastic, so it will give a little if you hold it by the very end. This is not a deal breaker but it could be better!I also don't like that there is a lip around the top of the powder - when you get low on powder in the tub, you can't dump it over into the next tub because of this lip.The powder/water ratio is the same as the other brands so you will easily avoiding mixing mistakes.There is a foil liner on new tubs that is easy to remove using the plastic zipper-like closure.I do like the closure on the tub. There is a visual and audible cue that it's closed completely. This is a better design that either Enfamil or Similac.Overall, I'm happy with the formula and excited that it is so much cheaper than national brands, so I can overlook the obvious failings in the tub and scoop design.

Great subsititute!
We have four kids ranging from 11yo to 7mo, and each one had different dietary needs as infants (breastfeeding, types of formula, etc...) I have two little ones that currently consume formula: my 7mo drinks Enfamil Gentlease and my toddler still drinks one Similac Advance bottle nightly. I've always been a little reluctant to try generic formulas, but I researched the USA manufacturer, Perrigo, and felt confident giving this GoodSense brand a go, and even more interested in trying the NON-GMO version (which has identical ingredients.) Honestly, formula is expensive, so this alternative, especially in the bulk package of six, is a great deal. I found the comparison chart on the package very helpful -- we actually compared it our container of name-brand and found it identical. The notable difference is the use of Palm Olein in this generic, which is thought to reduce calcium retention, however, it also has high oleic safflower/sunflower oil which is likely to balance that out. The GoodSense brand have all of the same vitamins and minerals as the Similac, and is a perfect substitute. My picky toddler did not notice a difference.
