New 2014 DryEasy Bedwetting Alarm

After years of night nappies as well as lack of success with medication, we purchased this on recommendation from an NHS appointment. To say we’re amazed is an understatement. Having read reviews and the alarm instructions I was expecting this to take a few months, if it worked at all. Within 3 weeks my daughter was totally dry at night, including two weeks back to back nights dry. She is totally delighted as well. Some notes: -We used it on the vibrate setting as the alarm tones were very loud and shrill and we thought it would be a bit traumatising in the middle of the night! -We also had her in pull ups with pants underneath to attach the alarm to, to avoid wet bedding at the beginning. This worked fine and once she was dry for a few nights in a row we stopped the pull ups with no problem at all.

I have made a repeat purchase of this product and the same is working fine. The first purchase was made 2 years back and it worked well for the last 2 years. Hence satisfied with the product and reordered

Product doesn’t work

These used to sell on Amazon Australia for $40 which was an acceptable price considering they only last on average 2 months sometimes they only last for 2 weeks, however, the price has now risen to $112 it’s not worth the money because they do not last and if you’re in Australia, you cannot claim warranty either

I never write reviews. And I feel badly about it because I rely heavily on them when I make purchases. So this busy mama of four is taking the time to write this review because it has impacted my life in such a significant way that I have to share my story! My son is 5. I had him potty trained right before he turned 3. Mostly. He was NEVER able to keep dry at night. Everyone said it's a bladder maturity thing. Everyone said he will eventually grow out of it. Well 2+ years later and he is still peeing in his pants every single night while he sleeps and I am trying to be patient while praying and hoping he won't be 10 years old and still wetting the bed every night! So I did a little research. Turns out he wets the bed at night because he is a deep sleeper and he has not yet made the brain to bladder connection to wake up to go to the bathroom. So that is where this alarm comes into play. I admit I was quite skeptical. Or perhaps simply cautious in allowing myself any form of optimism? Anyway, this is how it works: you clip a sensor to their underwear, clip the alarm to the top of their shirt (or arm, with included arm band), and when they start to urinate while they sleep, the alarm not only rings, but vibrates as well. I chose this particular bed wetting alarm because it has customizable options. You can determine how loud you want the alarm to ring, which was important to me because my son shares a room with my 1 year old and I did NOT want my baby waking up. The unit never woke the baby on the lowest volume setting (I never tried it any louder). You can also choose to turn the ringer off completely and have it just vibrate, or turn the vibration off and have it just ring. So that was pretty cool. I chose to do both, volume set to lowest option. There is a cute little sticker chart that comes with the product, that for a 5 year old is super exciting. There are 3 sticker options: sunshine - for a dry night, partly cloudy - for a semi-wet night, and a stormy raincloud - for a wet night. A few days into week 1 and I wanted to give up already (LOL) because who wants to go back to newborn days of waking up in the middle of the night? Not me! But other reviewers said to be consistent, so consistent I was. It was hit or miss at first, in terms of how he did. The alarm went off every night for 9 nights, but some of those nights he had only barely started to urinate and he made it to the restroom! Exciting stuff! I still had to change his underwear because the sensor is super sensitive so any form of dampness and it'll go off. My husband thought it was ridiculous and borderline child abuse (exaggerating) putting this contraption on him every night, and it didn't help my resolve. Well then this happened: Day 10, 11, 12, ...seven days straight completely DRY ALL NIGHT!!! I am completely astounded at how well this thing worked. Last night my son and I were both so excited for him to go to bed without the alarm, and he did it again! He used it for a total of 15 days and we no longer need it. I do not think I can truly express how grateful I am to the creators of this alarm system, and to God for guiding me to purchase this! Its affordable, easy to use, and it really truly works! Here are a few tips/tricks: *As another reviewer recommended, I put underwear on first, clipped the sensor to that, and put a pull-up on over his underwear, so night time changes were a breeze and he could go right back to bed. Brilliant. *Also from another reviewer - if you are worried about your fingers getting too close to private areas, you can clip the sensor to the underwear before they put it on. It's actually easier this way so you don't accidentally clip something else by mistake. Ouch! *Some reviewers mentioned that they have sweaty kids and the sensor would go off from sensing perspiration. I do not necessarily have a sweaty kid, but what I did, that I think might work for those sweatier kids (those with boys), is I clipped the sensor to that extra flap of material in their underwear that boys have. I think it kept the sensor a little more away from his body, but still worked perfectly whenever he started to urinate. Just a thought. *Be positive and supportive with your child and dry nights are only a few weeks away! :-) I hope this review helps others not only choose this item (because it rocks), but also helps with application and just encouragement to power through! And my prayers that this works just as well for you!
