Chummie Elite Bedwetting Alarm for Children and Deep Sleepers – Award Winning Bedwetting Alarm System with Loud Sounds and Strong Vibrations, Green

I have had a few bed wetting alarms over the past couple of years. All apart from one failed miserably. I achieved good results with a bed wetting mat but beware, the urine degrades the circuits and the performance of the mat deteriorates quickly. So my daughter has had a relapse which is not uncommon and I chose Chummie. It was sceptical about using a wired alarm. But taking everything into account this is an excellent product. Advantages: The one drop detection really works. The alarm sounds the second a drop is detected. Most nights no urine reached the bed, and if so it was just a very small patch so I didn't have to change the sheets till morning. The pad does not degrade. So if your child has a relapse you can use it again. The alarm is loud and the sound (and vibration) really irritated my daughter and apparently it changes randomly which she hated even more. The bottom line is it made her get out of bed! Disadvantages Positioning the pad on your child's underwear can be a little tricky to start with. On a girl don't place it too high. I mastered it after a couple of nights. The Chummie tape on its own will not hold the pad in place. I used it in combination with surgical tape. The loose wire will also need to be secured. I used the surgical tape to tape the wire in two places to my daughter's tummy. Without these measures the pad is likely to dislodge in my experience. Luckily surgical tape is inexpensive. My daughter started to have dry nights after a week and a half and I am very pleased. As long as you are prepared to help your child to detach and reattach the device at night, this is an excellent choice and value for money.

Very simply - this product is not fit for purpose. I have only given this review to save other parents experiencing this frustration. Within one hour of putting my boy to bed, the alarm went off. Initially I was very excited as I ran up the stairs to help him. When I ushered him in his sleepy state to the toilet, I noted that his underwear was completely dry. So, again, two hours later the same this happened. On both events his underwear was dry and there was no urine. I can only assume that the sensor picks up on perspiration but even so, his underwear was dry. The design is poor in that the child has to sleep with a plastic box attached to his chest with wires dangling about. Had I paid £10 for this product, I would not have felt so bitter.

Heard about these type of alarms from a friend who got one for her 8 year old boy. Hers was wireless and over £100. Was going to borrow hers but it had corroded so needed to buy one. Couldn't afford wireless but saw this in the mid price range. Better than clip sensors on underwear as it's a flat and bendy sensor but unfortunately not wireless. I was worried as I heard some bad things about false claims and broken wires, but I have had no problem. 5 year old girl liked she could pick colour as she was reluctant to wear one. Well first night she didn't wake up, we had to wake her, then went off again that night but she did wake. She woke every time after and it went down to only once a night straight from night 2. After a few nights she was dry all night. Something she has never done, her pull up is normally as heavy as a brick in the morning. Then it was on and off some nights she woke a bit wet (but still an improvement) others nights she was dry. Some of the dry nights she slept through and some she woke up for a wee without alarm going off. After about 3 weeks she has now had about 7 nights continuously dry (again sometimes sleeping through and sometimes getting up herself for a wee). She has even been ill in this time and not had accidents, she just woke for wee more. So hopefully she will be still dry in another weeks time and she can then stop using it (as it says to wait for 14 consecutive dry nights to stop use). This is when we go on holiday so she is looking forward to being dry for our Easter hol. So basically only took about a month, if she carries on. Would definitely recommend. Stacey

Am so glad we got this.my 6 year old is just a little too lazy when it comes to waking up for a wee but this alarm gets him up very quickly!!only flaw is that it does not come with enough sticky tape so order some as soon as you receive this.you receive about 14 strips and the only tape we found to work was duct tape!!!

Unfortunately this is too sensitive! It kept going off even though my daughter was not wetting herself. She gets very hot at night and when she gets sweaty the alarm will go off. We found that if her pants got the slightest bit sweaty it went off and we had to keep changing her pants. The result was that she was getting extremely upset by the whole process so we had to stop using it.

Having been a bit sceptical I am amazed how effective this little device was in helping our 5 year old lad to finally become dry at night. The first week was hell with the alarm going off several times each night and waking the whole house. After this though there was a gradual improvement and within the first month he became dry more often than not. It was £50 well spent although my only criticism is the Intellilex sensor plug came away from the wire after two months of use rendering the machine useless. Happily Amazon are providing a full refund. Very good customer service!

It’s highly sensitive, I notice the improvement on my son we had few accidents from now and then but it so much better, from the first wee, my son started to wake up at night to use the toilet. Although the alarm keeps falling from where it’s attached I have to check it from time to time.

This does not wake a child who sleeps deeply. It wakes me on the other side of the house but by the time I get to the child's bedroom, the bed is soaking. We've had this item for weeks and things are not improving.

È il secondo allarme che utilizziamo, il primo aveva una molletta che, a forza di essere utilizzata si è rotta e non rimaneva più attaccata alla mutandina. Sicuramente con l’utilizzo dell’allarme abbiamo eliminato il problema allagamento letto. Non abbiamo ancora risolti del tutto ma sono fiduciosa, quindi ho acquistato questo che mi sembra molto valido e resistente, il sensore è sensibile e quindi confortevole e soprattutto lo ho scelto per le suonerie variabili affinché non si abitui ad un solo suono. Unica pecca se si bagna anche pochissimo la muta da l’adesivo è da cambiare perché non tiene più...

Es un producto que nos encanto nuestro hijo al escuchar el ruido va al baño y nostors escuchamos para apoyarlo muy buena compra ,gracias

We purchased this for our very deep sleeper. He was 4 years old and was done wetting the bed in 6 weeks total, but I'd say he was getting the hang of it after only 2 weeks. Here are the steps we took for successful training 1. We purchased the orange arm band to hold the device instead of clipped to pajamas. Our son didn't like it on his arm, so we out it on his ankle, which was much more comfortable. 2. We put a piece of velcro to the back of the sensor and instead of taping it to his underwear, we put a pull up on him over his underwear, and the velcro stuck to the inside of the diaper perfectly. This also made cleanup after an accident super simple, because we didn't have to change bedding, just his underwear and a new diaper. 3. My son was a very very deep sleeper, so he slept right through the alarm,both the vibrating & the audible alarm. But it was still incredibly valuable, because it allowed me to KNOW when he was peeing and keep track of when, so I could quickly see a pattern. 4. I would set an alarm to wake myself up and have him go potty about 30 min before the pattern of when the alarm was going off. After reading the book "oh crap, potty training" I used her advice to not wake the child, and basically pick up your floppy, sleeping kid, and plop them on the potty chair and have him go potty while sleeping. I remember thinking to myself "how is this teaching him to go potty when he's sleeping through it?" but what it was doing was training his body to let the potty out in the potty chair and overtime it trained his body to wake him up. 5. The first few nights the alarm went off about 5-6 times but after about 2 days I noticed more of a pattern and could get him on the potty before it alarmed,.so it was down to 2-3 times a night rather quickly. Then for a week I was having him go potty before I went to bed and then one more time at about 2am. 6. Pretty quickly he was starting to actually wake up either to me getting him to go, or to the alarm and going on his own. 7. We kept the alarm on him for several weeks after he was getting it for just in case, and finally we just stopped because he was getting up and going all on his own.

Muy práctica y cómoda. Mi hijo de 8 años se despierta el sólo cuando la oye. Lleva una una semana con ella y estoy muy contenta. La pena no haberla comprado antes. Es fácil de usar y mi hijo se la pone y se la quita el sólito. Está cumpliendo mis expectativas y espero que mi hijo sea capaz de despertarse para ir al baño sin usarla en unos quince días.

Pas très efficace
