Shield Prime Bedwetting Alarm Enuresis for Boys & Girls with Loud Tone, Light & Vibration, Blue

My daughter is 6 and has been potty trained since 3. She initially was dry at night after potty training but after a few weeks was having accidents every night. We decided to use pull-ups and figured she would outgrow the nighttime accidents. Fast forward to her turning 6 and we decided it was probably time to intervene since it didn't appear to be something she was going to outgrow. After reading all research, reviews, etc. it sounded like a bed-wetting alarm was the most successful of all methods and it made the most sense to me since it's teaching your child's brain to wake up when they have the urge to pee, so its a means of retraining rather then just having then pee before an accident happened.As I said earlier, you have to be patient. Using the alarm is a bit exhausting in the beginning. To help intervene as quickly as possible my husband and I took turns sleeping next to my daughters bed so that we could wake her up as soon as the alarm went off. We also assumed that she was only having accidents once a night but it was actually twice, so the first week we would have to get her out of bed, to the toilet, pee, change clothes, pull off sheet, clean alarm, put it back on and get my daughter back to bed twice a night. Depending on your child they may get annoyed with the alarm as well and shut it off themselves or just pull it off. After a few weeks of the process my daughter starting pulling it off since the part that clips to the shirt is pretty clunky. I decided to leave that part unattached but leave the clip on the underwear on in hopes that it would stay on but my daughter wouldn't yank it off. Thankfully that did work and we were able to extend the use of the alarm for a few more weeks.How long it took- We started on February 10th, and we were stuck on the 2 alarm per night for about a week.She had her first full dry night after 18 days (February 28th) of using the alarm. Since then she's gone 29 dry nights with one accident at the beginning of the process and over a week ago we have stopped using the alarm altogether at this point.. The alarm has really been a huge relief to us, it's difficult when you get through potty training only to learn you have to do it again with the nighttime bed-wetting. I would highly recommend using this product, it held up well and was very well priced in comparison to others. I did also use my own star chart to give my daughter rewards for every time she got up to pee when the alarm went off, so she isn't discouraged by the process and of course stars for dry nights.

This product is terrible. When I first received the package and went to snap on the clip that attaches it to your shirt, I wasn’t able to remove the snap on clip without breaking the tabs that are needed to hold it on. I emailed the company to let them know directly and did not receive any response. I used tape to attach the snap on clip and we tried to use the alarm. The alarm worked for one night and then it went haywire. The alarm would go off when there was no dampness. It was impossible to get the alarm to shut off. I watched the YouTube video that explained to remove the clip, remove the cord, and press the button. After doing this the alarm would stop and then as soon as we plug the cord back into reuse it the alarm would start beeping again. Doing this in the middle of the night was super frustrating. The alarm is now not working at all. I can hold the alarm under running water and it does not go off. And then randomly I hit the one button and unplug it and it starts going off and we can’t get it to stop. Total waste of money and again I emailed he company twice over two weeks ago and received no response. This product made a stressful situation 50 times worse. I do not recommend and would appreciate the company replace this defective product.

The sensor is not made well. The alarm only went off sporadically for our son. Even when he completely wet the bed it would not set off the alarm most of the time. We tried this for two months and even tried exchanging the first one we received. Poor design.

Wasn't sure if the alarm would work on an 11 year old. Didn't want to spend too much on other systems which I thought were overpriced. The Shield alarm system is very good. My son was told that he would outgrow his bedwetting since age 6. Every time we went to the pediatrician, they kept repeating that he would stop. Yes, his bedwetting went from 7 times a week to 5 and then to about 4 times a week, but did not go away. Using the Shield alarm was very effective and simple to use. He would sleep and every time he wet, I would run over to wake him up. This happened for several weeks till he started getting up by himself. Then a few weeks later, his accidents decreased until they were like 1 a week and then they stopped. Hes an older child, so he had better control on his bladder, but I suppose it would work as well on a younger kid. No need to pay for overpriced alarms that do the same thing, Shield does the job and does it well.

The instructions for this product says to place the sensor on the front center of the child's underwear. But, my child sleeps on her side or back, and therefore wakes up with wet panties on her side or the back side of her underwear. So, the sensor doesn't come in contact with the urine, and it does not activate. I will be returning this product, and going with a bed sheet alarm.

Product works exactly as advertised. Took my 6 year old 8 nights to learn to sleep dry. Highly recommend.
