RMS401 Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 kckmedical has them even cheaper: http://kckmedical.com/index.asp?PageAction...mp;ProdID=17502 Bo, don't forget about the shipping, which KCK charges a minimum of $16.50 for, and that brings their price close to $60. Not that good a deal when you factor everything in, as you can see. Now you can see what a great deal XP is offering on these! -RMS Link to comment
tndyperboy Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 thanks for the heads up; I just ordered 2 cases for myself. Can never have too many diapers on hand. Link to comment
Cindy333 Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I have been using x-plus continuously in the past months but either I need to change pretty frquently throughout the day or my diaper obviously leaks. I have read about putting baby disposable diapers inside the one you use, but I was thinking if wearing one or two x-plus at once would simply solve the problem? Please give me some info!

wetvinyl Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 One XPlus usually lasts all day/night for me, but I've tried that, once... I hadn't wet yet but saw that the outer plastic had gotten ripped somehow (probably caught in the zipper of my jeans). Didn't want to waste an otherwise perfectly good diaper, so I taped another over it. It was obvious THICK-- forget about people not knowing you're wearing a diaper! Then, after I'd worn it all day, it got pretty heavy (just pee) and I had to re-tape the outer diaper... they were sagging pretty low. My plastic pants helped keep them on, but if not for those and having to re-tape, they would have eventually sagged right off... they got REAL heavy. But they never once leaked... wore them for 12+ hours! XPlus are pretty expensive per diaper to be doing that all the time... yeah, I'd just try stuffing with baby diapers instead, or try plastic pants... good luck! wv. Link to comment
Baby D Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Wearing plastic pants helps to keep you from leaking, but if you're looking for extra absorbancy, you could also try boosters that are made especially for that purpose. They're relatively inexpensive. Or you could use baby diapers as stuffers, but I find that the boosters are easier than using baby diapers. Link to comment
redneck diaper boy Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 It sounds like a plan but it also sounds really expensive. I have been using x-plus continuously in the past months but either I need to change pretty frquently throughout the day or my diaper obviously leaks.

puffy_bottom Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I just went to xpmedical.com and on the front page they show an X-Plus with backward printing. The diapers are fine, but Gary is selling them at a discount of $47.99 per case, shipping included! This is an unbeatable deal, it seems, for the right person. The hitch? They're only in medium and, of course, the quantities are limited. The fact that they're mediums makes them useless to me, but I'm hoping to be able to help some people here. Go check it out! -RMS I'm happy to say that these were still around after pay day. I picked up a case at the discounted price. Awesome. Link to comment
kreor Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I was just wondering if anybody had any info on the Abena AirPlus. XPMedical started selling it recently, and they make it sound like it has air ventilation, feels comfy, and will hold 10 liters, but somehow I doubt it's that nice. However, since it's from Abena, I bit it's well worth the money. Has anybody tried these? Link to comment
Diaperteddy Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Hello Do not trust it. Abena is a danish diaper, and Abena diapers can max hold 4 liters. Anyway it could be fun to walk around with 10 liters between the legs. Link to comment
Torgen Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 The tapes are the same as the plastic Abenas, so they're not as good on the clothlike cover as on the plastic. They should have done something velcro-like with the tapes. Link to comment
Repaid1 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I'll look them up in a sec, but 10 liters, that's gotta be a typo???? my x-plus's would be lucky to hold 2 liters, course I'm in a small but geeze thats about 2.5 gallons (10 ltr) isn't it??? (didn't look it up yet though) thats just crazy!!! Link to comment
thekid1 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Abri-Form AirPlus X-Plus if this is the one you mean it is the same as the Abri-Form x-plus but with a cloth like cover has the same Absorbency as the Abri-Form x-plus. Link to comment
kreor Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 hehe...sorry...I thought about putting something like "and it will change the diaper for you", but held off. Now that I think about it, 10 liters isn't quite as implausible as it at first sounds ^^ Link to comment
digger58610 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 my order of x plus was screwed up, and instead of sending me a case of plain x plus, they shipped me 2 cases of x plus air plus. i love these, the same absorbancy, but the velcro tapes dont come undone, there the balls Link to comment
Ccwick Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I never had that problem with Abri-form, what I found wrong was the tapes; they just would not stay on! At first I was loving the look and feel of my nappy but after only about an hour both tapes had given way! I thought that maybe I'd just not done it properly so I carefully refastened making sure they were very secure, but they cam undone twice more before I got fed up and changed They did hold a lot which was nice, but the padding appeared to be the sort that breaks apart if you stay in the nappy too long. ABSOLUTELY CORRECT! this is exactly what happens with abena. The newest ones i think have softer plastic but the inner absorption padding/material does break up if you're in them long enough and the tapes are still an issue with these diapers/nappies. Once you tape them on you better not retape cause they will not hold up. Still love the thickness and feel and absorption and all that stuff though. Link to comment
gizmachi Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I have been using the Abriform Super for quite some time now and I find the padding and tapes hold up quite well. I have had a tape pop off once in a while but I can usually refasten it and it holds up ok. I just tried some samples of the air plus in both super and x-plus. The tapes really suck! If one pulls of, it takes some of the cloth covering with it and it's impossible to get it to hold again. Bleh... Although the air plus helps with sweating and all that, I'll stick with the originals. Link to comment
Bendami Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 How does one pronounce Abena? Ah-been-ah? A-been-ah? Ah-ben-ah? A-ben-ah? Thanks! Link to comment
thekid1 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 i believe it is a-be-na Link to comment
Chibiusa255 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I've always said it like "ah-bee-nuh" but i really have no idea if that's right. Link to comment
Bendami Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I've always said it like "ah-bee-nuh" but i really have no idea if that's right. I've always done so as well but it doesn't seem like the Dutch would call it that. Link to comment
