Chummie Premium Bedwetting Alarm for Deep Sleepers – Award Winning, Clinically Proven System with Loud Sounds, Bright Lights and Strong Vibrations, Blue

My nearly 6 year old son has never had a dry night. He sleeps like a log and just had no clue when he was wetting in the night - we potty trained him at 2 in the day and he did this relatively easily, but thought to do the night time as well at this time would be too much for him. Since he was say 3.5 to 4 we have had several attempts to get him dry in the night, did the usual reducing the fluid, no drinks after 6pm, dream weeing etc. We wouldn't get any improvements so would try again in a few months time. In Jan 2014 we decided to go cold turkey, just get rid of the pull ups and use the diposable bed sheets and in a few weeks he would be able to break the habit. But after 3 weeks it was actually getting worse - this really affected him as he felt like a baby and really wanted his friends to be able to sleepover. I did a bit more searching and originally ordered a much cheaper alarm which when delivered just didn't work. This was half the price of the Chummie, but when I saw this alarm I just thought to hell with it, we were ready to try anything and I didn't want to consider possible medication. I talked my son through how it worked, he loved the little book and being able to colour in the pictures. We bought some t-shirts with little pockets in to clip the alarm and keep it more secure, and for the first few nights put a pull up over his pants to keep the alarm in place. It is very sensitive which is great as it went off when the tiniest drop of wee hit it - the first few times it did make us jump, but it had to be that loud (and vibration is great) to wake my son. First 3-4 nights he woke 2-3 times, and finished his wee on the toilet. On the 4th night nothing, we lay awake until 1am expecting to hear the alarm! At 6am I woke up and had to go in and see him as was convinced it had stopped working (or hubby hadn't switched it on!)...but lo and behiold, our first dry night! SInce then he hasn't looked back, and it hasn' gone off once. since then Tonight is the 14th night - we did take the alarm off 2 nights ago which I know was a little early but we wondered if fit would make a difference. This has just made something 'click' with him, and it's made his brain realise whe hemay need a wee and he's just holding it. He's not even waking in the night to go to the toilet (he did do that once, on the 5th night but it was about 6am) - I really cannot rate it highly enough, my son is so much happier, and now Daddy has to buy him a new bed! For anyone in the same predicament just get it - it really has worked miracles :) x

Early days yet but it seems to be working. My child is a super heavy sleeper and to start we had to dash and wake her and start the conditioning that way. Two weeks in she is getting some of the alarms and responding. I expect the process to last a few months. Could do with better instructions, better website, user forums etc but product sound.

Im not normally one to write reviews but I'm so bitterly disappointed with this product that I felt I needed to. My 7 year old has been struggling with bed wetting and is getting quite upset over it so I decided to try an alarm and after reading lots of brilliant reviews for this one I decided to bite the bullet and fork out the £65. The actual alarm component is poorly made, the button on the side to control sound, vibration and alarm tone is flimsy and gets stuck easily, I thought I could live with this if the thing did the trick, however, after 5 nights perseverance I'm giving up. In addition to the alarm being flimsy, the sensor component is also poor. The sticky strips provided don't stay stuck to the underwear, particularly if your child fidgets in bed, which most do, so on 2 nights the alarm didn't go off because it had become detached from the underwear. I've tried using 3 of the strips to stick it down (you're only supposed to need one) to 100% cotton knickers (instead of polyester or any with character pictures stuck on) but this still didn't work. We're going on holiday in 10 days and I was hoping this was going to prevent accidents in the hotel bed but that's not going to happen. In my opinion this alarm was a complete waste of £65 and I shall be contacting the manufacturer to complain.

Our 6 year old boy was bed wetting multiple times a week before we got the Chummie system. We worried a bit that he would be embarrassed about using it but he was actually very happy - calling it his alarm. Unlike other viewers is didn't cure him over a few days - we were using it for several months but when we stopped he has been completely dry since. Some random points to note:- no more wet sheets! the alarm really does go off before more than a drop of pee has appeared - fantastic- your child really needs to wear bed clothes, the wire needs to be tucked under a top in order to not get tangled/pulled and the beeping device needs a proper (e.g. t-shirt type) neckline to attach to- you'll need more than one box of the sticker tapes- we also used Brolly sheets (which we had before we got the Chummie) they're an added insurance and if you only have a random bedwetter might be sufficient in themselves. They're also very good at protecting pillows/sofas from vomit if your child has a sickness bug
