Consumer Reports tested 37 brands of
condoms for its March 1989 issue, putting
about 10,000 condoms through a battery of

each model, projected from the failures, fell
well within the government's tolerance of
four failures per 1,000 condoms.
The condoms also were given the uirbursl
lest, in which condoms are inflated under
