DailyDi Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Just stocked at Northshore Care. Said to be on par with the super-absorbent favorites, but with a larger mat area for us side sleepers. Got a bag coming, can't wait to try them. http://www.northshorecare.com/eurobriefs.html Link to comment
Diaper_Lover_HI Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Sounds like I need to order some, will check these out and give them a try. I too am a side sleeper. Thank you for the post. Link to comment
gah!ghost Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Oh nice I have been wanting to try those. Link to comment
square_duck Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Disposable medical express (DME) has them in stock as well. Link to comment
puffybedwetter Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I always order from dme Link to comment
nhdl Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Are they plastic backed? They look similar to wellness brand imo. Link to comment
Repaid1 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Ummm is there something wrong with the ad? The absorption levels are mediocre at the best? 33oz and for the large? Heck Wellness holds 87oz and proved it on a video? what gives. I thought the Euro brief original was twice or more what this is? Something is screwy! According to DME, these are just the old style Euro Brief before going to cloth backed. See many (mixed) reviews here, they corrected the absorbancy to 93.3oz: http://www.disposabl...ml#ReviewHeader Link to comment
DailyDi Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 It looks like they do their own testing and rating as they rate the Wellness for 27oz in large Link to comment
DiapermanAl Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Hello there my night diaper choice. The large hold 80 0z when filled to the max. I have a diaper scale i use. They have them way underrated on the site. If you like wellness you will love the euroibrief. Link to comment
gah!ghost Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 My only issue is my increasingly annoying problem with having to be home for FedEx no matter what. I really need to find a solution for that. I tend to only order stuff that could be FedEx from Amazon since i have Prime and can pretty precisely pinpoint when the package will be delivered so I can plan accoridngly. So I might be waiting until Northshore puts them up on Amazon Prime. The currently have them up on Amazon but not Prime. They're quite a bit more on Amazon too which is odd. Link to comment
Repaid1 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 It looks like they do their own testing and rating as they rate the Wellness for 27oz in large Perhaps they are rating in weight not capacity in Fluid Oz? Link to comment
BoTox Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Perhaps they are rating in weight not capacity in Fluid Oz? But isn't a pint a pound? Water is roughly 8lbs per gallon. Link to comment
gah!ghost Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 From what I understand 1 fluid ounce ≠ 1 avoirdupois ounce. There's also two different kinds of fluid ounces. There's imperial (20 oz per pint) and US (16 oz per pint). The whole thing can be somewhat complicated as well once you start using liquids that aren't water which have different densities since fluid ounces are a measurement of volume and avoirdupois ounces are a measurement of mass. I know in baking it's pretty common practice to measure your dry ingredients by weight rather than volume as many of them are very compressible and can lead to so pretty wide swings in quantity. Liquids aren't as bad but for example, some Beer can have some pretty different densities depending on what beer. This is all just layman's knowledge I've picked up over the years so I might be wrong or incomplete on some of the details. Link to comment
DailyDi Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 FedEx just came! Very comfortable diaper, pleasantly thick between my legs while not overly padded high in the waist or in the sides.Matt is just the size I like it, little larger in the back and oval in the front to provide protection in any direction you might be hanging. Pad seems to "snuggle" the body better than some, so I FEEL like I'm protected. Absorbency will take longer to test, lol. Link to comment
DailyDi Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 Very impressed. 10 hours in and my pants are still dry. Even had to run errands, and no sagging or loose tapes. Link to comment
Nia Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Are they plastic or cloth backed? Link to comment
DailyDi Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 Really liking these! Soft and comfortable and have been keeping me dry all weekend. Going to need more! Link to comment
Huggie Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I just received the EuroBrief on 9/20, ordered on Monday were here Thursday, that was nice delivery time from NorthShore. I put my baby girl in one and I loved the feel of the plastic shell, very soft plastic! The matting is a nice design, wide oval bottom and also the front is an oval, they seem higher in the front padding then other brands. She said they feel like padded underwear which was a compliment. They are not too bulky at all and have coverage in all the right places, she loved the feel. We alway duct tape the diapers cuz she prefers them super tight, the EB tapes were easy to work with. I must say they are a small diaper as far as sizing goes, my bg takes a medium in every other brand. The label says a med fits a 27 up to a 43 inch waist; I doubt if you were an actual 43" waist you'd get in a medium, she barely fit in the med EuroBrief. I am going to call for a large sample to see if that will work better. She hadn't told me about the wetting capacity yet but will report when she let's me know. Link to comment
Guest Diaperdragon Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 How do they stack up against Molicare, Abena Bambino and Dry/24/7 Link to comment
gah!ghost Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 I believe I have been told that they're very similar to the OLD Dry 24/7 back when they where colored. And like those they also run smaller not unlike the more recent Bambinos. Link to comment
Huggie Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Follow-up: Well we got size Large samples to make a comparison, my baby girl fit much better and felt fantastic in them. She also loved the green color too. She said she loves these; the best of all the diapers she worn to date. She does wish they looked alittle more babyish but what can you do. She worn the two "L" samples, one after another and filled each one with lots of pee, no leaks and little clumping if any, she did feel a clump after messing though, LOL I also had a chance to use my XL's and I like mine also. I am a true XL on the lower side of the size chart so the XL's fit me ok. I didn't have any leaks. The plastic cover was very enjoyable. EuroBriefs will be our diaper of choice from now on!

DailyDi Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 I love them, the plastic seems a bit stretchy and really hugs my body. Very comfortable. Link to comment
DiapermanAl Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Cool Huggie glad they worked out for her. I like the color of the xl the yellow. Link to comment
puffybedwetter Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I'm going to order some for the colder months Link to comment
