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

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

(6yr old boy; no dry nights ever) This is the first alarm we tried. We did not want to use medicine for the bedwetting so our doctor suggested using an alarm. After looking at different reviews the Chummie brand looked like the best. We went with this alarm (Elite) because my son (6yr) does not have trouble waking up with his morning alarm (has not gotten use to the sound/pattern) so we figured he wouldn't have trouble waking up to this one as well. He has been using it for a month now and I am amazed at what a difference it has made! First off the alarm is small with a good tight fitting clasp you can attach to the back to clip onto a shirt but my little guy moves around SO much that it was coming off every night and would unplug. Once it took forever to find because it was stuffed in his pillow case!! Crazy kid! haha! We ordered the armband and that fixed the problem (we did have to use velcro to attach it to the armband because it would still fall out sometimes). The alarm is loud and I can hear it a few rooms away (I'm a light sleeper). I though it would wake the 3yr old (next room over) but as of yet we have had no problems. I was having to get him up every time at first but now most of the time he is at least awake if not up by the time I get in there. The sensor is super sensitive! Really, one drop sets it off. I did go out a get more underwear for him because we have to use two pair each time. The first pair has the sensor attached to the outside of it and the second pair goes over that to keep the sensor in place. (Did I mention my guy moves around like there is a freaking earthquake or something!). The first few weeks we were changing his underwear up to three times (6 pairs of undies!!), just be prepared! We bought a second sensor but not sure if it was necessary really. It was nice to have it for a quick change but you can dry it off really good and use it again. Three weeks in and we were not even using the second one. It took a few days to get the hang of everything but we had our first dry night on the 7th night! My guy has not had a dry night EVER so everyone was super happy!! The next two weeks we only had a few more dry nights (we bought washable bedwetting pads to go over top of the sheets so we were able to get back to sleep quicker) but by the 4th week he was staying dry all but one night! He has even had a few nights now were he as woken up before the alarm! We are going to wait the full 14 days of dry nights before trying without the alarm but I'm betting by another month he will be off of it! So wish we would have tried this product sooner!!

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
