Customer Reviews of Malem Ultimate Bedwetting Alarm - Blue 1 Tone w/Vibration

Customer Review: I had no faith that this thing would work...but it DID!!!
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this out of complete desperation. I did not think it would work, and really felt that I probably just wasted $100 of my hard-earned money. Man, was I wrong!!! I don't know how it worked, but it did, and I am thrilled. The alarm was for my 7 year old son, who never had a dry night in his life. The first 15 nights were brutal....he either woke up screaming from fear (the first few times it goes off, it seems so incredibly loud), or he slept thru it (hard to believe, I know). Then, on the 16th night, he woke up BEFORE the alarm went off...and went pee. This has now happened for 5 nights IN A ROW. I'm not waiving the Victory Flag quite yet, but all signs are that I will be able to wave it soon.

I gave the alarm 4 stars (not 5) because I think it could use some improvement, plus the thing really comes w/very few tips on how to use it successfully. I had to search all over the internet for those tips, and I will pass them on here (a bit later in the review).

The alarm is pinned on to the pj's, w/a big, old-fashioned baby safety pin. Not only does that look dorky, it puts holes in the pj's! I would think some sort of magnet (like they have on name badges) would work much better, and look better too. The instructions tell you to pin the alarm on the OUTSIDE of the pj's, but when you do that, it flops all around. And since the pin is on the top of the unit, it has a tendancy to "flop" around if it's pinned to the outside shoulder of the pj's. So I pinned it to the INSIDE of my son's jammies, to kind of hold it in one place, which seems to work.

The instructions tell you not to unplug the "jack" portion of the alarm (they never say WHY you shouldn't do this) to get it to stop alarming, but that's exactly what I did, just to save some time, and to get the thing to stop screaming as quickly as possible. When your kid has to pee RIGHT NOW, the last thing you want to be doing is fumbling w/the "clip" around the crotch of their undies. I just had my son take off his wet underpants, and I undid the clip at that time. When I got the dry underpants all rigged up w/the clip again, I just plugged the "jack" back into the alarm unit, and pushed the reset button (the reset button does NOT turn off the alarm). Also, I found that the "sensor" had to be blown-dry (for about 15 seconds or so) after it went off, or it would just alarm immediately, even on a dry pair of undies. That entire process can be quite cumbersome in the middle of the night, especially when you have to do it 2,3 or even 4 times per night. That's why I did not give the alarm 5 stars.

And now for some tips:

1. Do NOT allow your child to hoodwink you into making the alarm use vibration alone. They will sleep thru the alarm (trust me on that one).

2. Do NOT put on a pull-up OVER the underwear. Part of the learning process is letting the child "feel the pee".

3. The second week is harder than the first, so don't be discouraged.

4. Do NOT turn the alarm off until your child is standing at the toilet (or sitting if it's a girl), ready to pee. The child needs to REMEMBER the alarm going off, and then getting up to go pee. If they don't remember that, it's not going to work.

5. Do NOT withold liquids a few hours before bedtime. In fact, do the opposite.

6. If your child does not wake up when the alarm goes off, then turn on the light in their room, and say their name over and over. Don't whipser their name, but don't scream it either...just said it in a normal voice. If that still doesn't work (this happened w/my son during week #2), then get a washcloth wet with cold water, and swab their face, arms, legs until they DO wake up. Make sure the alarm is still alarming during all of this. VERY IMPORTANT!!! They have to learn to listen to the signal that their brain sends, telling them to get up and GO PEE.

So there you have it. Like I said earlier, I had ZERO confidence that this thing would cure my son of bedwetting, but it proved me wrong. Yeah, it's expensive, but it is so worth it!!!

Description of Malem Ultimate Bedwetting Alarm - Blue 1 Tone w/Vibration

Compact and lightweight (less than two ounces including two AAA batteries) with all the advanced features and advantages of the world famous Malem alarms. The alarm is connected to a small, comfortable clip-on sensor which quickly detects moisture.

Compact, lightweight alarm unit is attached to the shoulder and sounds continuously until the 2-step turnoff is completed.

The ULTIMATE alarm uses inexpensive AAA batteries that last up to 10 times longer than standard "button" batteries found in nearly all other bedwetting alarms.
