Its the same stuff in nappies?

It isn't as good as a sand bag as the density of the bag will be the same (near as) as water. If you have a flood and want to create a barrier to pump over, these things will just float off into the sultry English summer. They don't illustrate this scenario.

A sand bag will be heavier/denser than water and will sink, hold fast and create a barrier, you then can pump over the top.

I wouldn't like to try them out for the first time when I had a flood.

I guess the selling point is they take up less space than sand and some bags.

Given the weather I think investing in some sacks and a few bags of sand, some thick plastic etc etc wouldn't be a bad idea.
