Diapers4Me Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Looks like Paper Pak has finally bitten the bullet and decided to streamline their product line! http://www.attends.us/custom_products.aspx?id=6 They are also coming out with an "Extended Wear" brief....but it looks like it will have a cloth covering! That might not work well for those of us that like the plastic outer shell, and don't like the problems with chaffing and wicking one gets with cloth covered diapers! Oh well....looks like they haven't messed with their waistband style briefs any more..... Link to comment

Diapers4Me Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Looks like they will continue their classic line (just called Attends Briefs in the new line up) but looks like they will put easy fit tapes on them. According to their marketing deptartment (just spoke to them) the extended wear brief will be just like their breathable brief but with thicker and more absorbant padding. No padding in the wings and no plastic outer shell. Link to comment
Nappied Dan Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I recently tried the special care diaper and would have to say that there are plenty of better products available in the market. The biggest problem i have with this diaper is the fit. The diaper is way to narrow between the legs to be considered a true contender. Stick to the better brands. Link to comment
Diapers4Me Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 There really should be a separate listing for Attends (North America) and Attends (Europe) as the diapers are completely different..... I like the European Attends Special Care.....thought they were thirsty and nice and crinkly. Link to comment
diaperlover68 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I have been buying Attends from a local pharmacy for awhile now... and i noticed that they are strange. They are Attends' 3-tape Waistband style, but they don't have a wetness indicator, just some blue writing down the middle. What is it, and are these correct or weird? I've attached some pics. That one with me in it is from my myspace page - see my signature. Link to comment
Daphne Flower Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I used to love the attends brand, I would rate them above any other that is until last month. I bought a case direct from Attends, and I have to say that they were really bad. I would suggest trying Molicare super plus or Abena X-Plus, they are by far a better Nappy to wear. Link to comment

I took photos of them when they first came out. You can see them on my site (if you are a member-membership is free--just have to post so I know you are a DL) Link to comment
phogendpf Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I love attends waistband. Ive tried every other diaper and attends is by far the best. Put a depend booster i there and you have a winner. Link to comment
AbriForm Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Great, I order a case of Attends... and then I find out that they're finally making an extended wear. Oh well, great news all the same... more motivation for me to burn through a case in record time Link to comment
attends_99 Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Are Attends Briefs all cloth like backing now, or are some still plastic backed?? (Thanks! Link to comment
ChrisKnight Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Are Attends Briefs all cloth like backing now, or are some still plastic backed?? (Thanks! The 6 tape with waistband is still plastic backed. Link to comment
diaperdwayne Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 just do search diapers on google u will find tons medical stores that sell them... Link to comment
look4mommy Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 is it just me, or are the latest batch of 6-tape attends even thinner than before? Link to comment
storzech Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 I can not say yet I am still working on 4 cases I have ordered earlier this year. If you want I can order more and compare. If it is thinner I think they are going to try to drop the waistband style and cal it a bad selling product to force us to cloth backed. I suggest you contact them, and we can also try to coax Proctor and Gamble to get back into the adult diaper industry. Link to comment
attends_99 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 is it just me, or are the latest batch of 6-tape attends even thinner than before? It is sad what has happened to Attends. They used to be the best and I loved wearing them (hence my user name). They were thick, absorbent, and had that lovely baby powder scent to them. Now they are getting thinner and thinner and don't hold all that much...and worst of all most are cloth-like now Link to comment
jamestena Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I still want Attends Classics continued forever! Link to comment
Guest Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 those would be the old style ones with the 3 tapes and the 3 yellow lines for wetness indicationOK, since i wear attends often enough and have a place that gets what i like for me i will post this for ya The attends with 3 tapes per side and waistband ate given reorder #'s Larges 2 bags of 18 per case are BRW103036 Mediums 2 bags of 22 per case are BRW102044 They have gotten a bit thinner in original out of the bag feel, but attends has said that they found ways to keep the absorbancy and also to compress the diapers down in size and save packaging costs. The packaging is not like the above picture anymore Another tip: don't keep your diapers cramped up. when you put them in the cabinent, drawer, etc, allow them to have some room, they may expand now that they are not smashed up in that plastic bag and box I have never bought any of this specific brand before, and I know they change the colors with sizes on some other brands. Are all sizes of these white? Link to comment
Diapers4Me Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 All Attends Briefs with Waistband are White, regardless of their size. Link to comment
wetdiapermass5 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 what are the special 10 attends? curious, i know i have used the reg standards in past lol Link to comment
JBonn Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I wrote to Attends to inquire about the release of their new Extended Wear diaper, and also to let them know that I like their Waistband Style diaper best, as it fits well, but it could use a lot more absorbency. This is the reply I got: Thanks for visiting our website and interest in our products. Our newAttends Extended Wear briefs will not be available until December or January. We do not have any future plans to make any changes to our Attends Waistband briefs but your comments/suggestions will be forwarded to the appropriate departments for future consideration.

Heven Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Thanks for looking into it. I've been curious about those for awhile. Link to comment
meretrix Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I just bought a pack of attends 10 larges (they didn't have mediums like I usually get), and they have a blue plastic lining and they don't feel the same inside. What gives? Anyone else have this problem lately? They also have 2 tapes. Link to comment
thickdiaperedbaby Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 When was the last time you bought Large Attends Classics? They have been like this for awhile... Link to comment
cruxshadow Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I just bought a pack of attends 10 larges (they didn't have mediums like I usually get), and they have a blue plastic lining and they don't feel the same inside. What gives? Anyone else have this problem lately? They also have 2 tapes. Attends makes numerous different styles of diaper. The one with the plastic lining has been around for a long time. What you probably want is Attends waistband style (be sure to avoid "breathable" unless you like "clothlike" diapers.) Link to comment
