Depends1578 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 As you know, I wear the cheap Depends Max Protection. I'm trying to figure out what would be the best stuffer? I'm thinking about getting baby diapers, but with any baby diaper as a stuffer, won't it just fill the baby diaper and have that swell? Or will it spread to my depends and even out with extra protection and bulk? I always picture it just filling the baby diaper. Never used stuffers before so seeking your advice and knowledge about how they work and such. Thanks in advance, Link to comment
rusty pins Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 If you have a Babies-R-Us near by, try a package of "DIAPER DOUBLERS" which are made for actual baby diapers. They are like a long pad (kind of like a maxi pad or Kotex) and made to insert inside a diaper to increas the absorbtion. You can use one, two or even 3 at a time if you want. Last time I bought them they were about $3 for a bag of 30 which works out to only 10 cents an insert. Try them. For the price, you can at least use them up if they aren't exactly what you are looking for. Link to comment

SWet Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 As a fellow Depends user I’ve found that using a Tena Ultimate Pad as a stuffer working amazingly well. Simply cut a few slits in the plastic backing between the triple adhesive strips and position in the Depends so that the front portion of the pad can be folded down creating a barrier and additional absorption at the front of the diaper. The pads edges works as a leak barrier and the Depends’ leak guards are still effective. The absorbent polymer works very fast and transfers wetness to the diaper as it reaches saturation. The diaper will bulk up very noticeably as the pad swells. Another advantage is that you can buy the pads at the same time you are purchasing the Depends. Link to comment
Santiago Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I use the Depend Boost inserts, which add reasonable capacity I think. You can get them from Amazon with their subscription service for a pretty reasonable price. Link to comment
Diapered Jason Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 What I normally do with Depends is cut holes in the plastic and double or even triple layer them up. I have never really liked stuffers that much. Link to comment

While you can do that of course, it is not cost effective, but you can't beat the bulk of 3 diapers (just don't expect to fully utilize all them before you need a change). Link to comment

I guess that is true as it is not very cost effective. Link to comment
