Nappied Dan Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 These are by far the best diapers/nappies that I have tried. About 3 years ago they started to have a cloth cover which I dont usually like but I think these are worth trying. The tapes told very well and if you buy the highest absorbency they hold much more than any other product I have ever tried. They are expensive but worth the money if you can afford to spend it.

Zander Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I think they're ok, but frankly they're nothing particularly special if you've tried a decent range of diapers. I've tried the plastic and cotton-feel backed ones - both hold about as much as a Tena Slip Maxi (atleast the Super Plus ones do), but otherwise they're nothing special (unless you're in the US where they have a generally crap selection of 'mainstream' adult disposable diapers). For those interested, you can see what they look like in my Euron Form (Medium, Super Plus, Cottonfeel-backed) gallery. A word of caution on the cotton-feel backed ones: like most* cottonfeel backed ones, they eventually seem to leak through the backing material, particularly during extended wear periods (e.g. at nights). This could be only a matter of an hour or so if you are a heavy wetter. Also, remember even though they use dual-layer tabs/fasterners, they will pull off some of the backing material with them if you re-sit the tabs, meaning the layer will loose its adhesiveness if you resit the tab more than once. If you're someone who is fairly active or needs to resit the tabs after more than 5 mins of wearing, stick to something with a hook and loop style fastener if you want cotton-feel ones, and nappies with a dedicated landing zone if you want plastic backed. * -- (arguably the Tena Ultima isn't afflicted by the first issue so much) Link to comment
Overnight Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 They still do the plastic backed ones; I'm wearing one right now. I have never found a product which fits quite as well as these do; every other tape-up brand falls down with even a slight wetting. Link to comment
huggieslover Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 i absolutely love euron form, yes they are a bit expensive but are worth it - i find them bulky but not obtrusively so and I do wear them when i go out. Link to comment
FlexiGirl Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 i used to travel out my way to get the super plus from Reading then they jacked the price up to £27 a pack. easy mobility Woking sell them around £14 Link to comment
huggieslover Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Same here, I used to travel to reading and paid far too much for them.... Been to Woking today and got them for £16.99 for medium super plus! Happy days. Link to comment
Forced2wet Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 So are the Euron Form plastic or cloth backed. I'm looking for an the best plastic backed nappy in the UK and I think the best option is Tena slip Maxi. Link to comment

huggieslover Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 It was indeed Redland, I can't believe how expensive they compared to one stop in Woking. Link to comment
FlexiGirl Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 yes i stopped going there once it went up by £12 a pack, Woking is much easier to get to anyway, there is also a mobility shop nearby at Addlestone (Easy Mobility) that sells lille supreme maxis at £10 and senset brands.

huggieslover Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Embarrassment is my big problem too, I always buy a little way from home if I can. I pass by addlestone on the way to work and back - may pop in there one day. 1 Link to comment

Zander Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 i have it on good authority that the euron form brand is going to be discontinued so enjoy them while it lasts. Link to comment
Overnight Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I received my shipment of these this week. The outer packaging was different so I was concerned the worst might have happened, but the same great product inside. Link to comment
Zander Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 From what I understand in terms of the branding: Lille is very big in France/Belgium/Netherlands, Link to comment
Overnight Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Interesting. So is Euron Form the only one still offered with plastic backing? If not, what are the parralel products? Link to comment
Nappied Dan Posted December 7, 2013 Author Share Posted December 7, 2013 Hi Infant, I can't speak for the UK, but in Australia they switched to cloth backed ones years ago. Link to comment
