    Best medical/white diapers less than $30

    If you're in the US you should probably order through llmedico.com, since they have free shipping with no minimum purchase, so you're liable to get a better deal if you're ordering in single-pack quantities. Glancing through their catalog I can see a few different options for less than $30...

    Male dribble

    I resonate so much with this conversation! This has been a problem for me since childhood. It must have been close to 15 years ago that I finally started wearing "male guards." I'd been at a friend's house and got up from a chair I'd been sitting in and realized I'd left a big stinky urine spot...

    discreet cloth back

    I feel like I'm giving away my secrets here, but the DryDirect Maxi diapers from parentgiving.com are fantastic. They don't stretch or sag like most cloth-backed diapers, and they don't weep moisture or feel damp on the outside. The capacity is wonderful for the price, about on par with the UK...

    RIP InControl Essentials

    I'm so sad to learn that they're discontinuing these diapers! I was sad enough when they discontinued the Originals, but to lose both is a real tragedy. I also notice that the Essentials are "on sale" on their website for like $10 more than they cost last week. There's such a shortage of good...

    The future of plastic backed diapers, thoughts?

    As far as I'm aware, no one has EVER tried to claim that the cloth-like backing on "cloth-backed" disposable diapers is more environmentally friendly. Everyone knows it's made of plastic. Seriously, show me where any company has tried to make that claim; post a link. This is just fear-mongering...

    Ha, wow, hi UnMarth! I still read the forums here fairly often and even post now and then. Definitely not as active as I once was. Hope you're doing well too.

    Would you wear diapers more often if you could?

    I used to have lots of reasons for not wearing diapers and they all eventually turned out to be bunk. I used to have rules for myself like not wearing at work or around friends. And I used to tell myself there were situations where I wouldn't enjoy wearing diapers, like if I was going to be...

    What features are important for the “perfect” ABDL diaper?

    One thing you left off your list is price. That's a factor that not a lot of companies are considering, and if you made ABDL diapers that were affordable you'd be offering something people can't find elsewhere.

    Prevail Per-Fit 360 Briefs?

    They're surprisingly good, and the Prevail Air Overnight are similar only even more absorbent. The stretchy sides are wonderful! They have cloth backing so they're silent under clothes, but they don't sag or feel damp on the outside like a lot of cloth-backed diapers do. They don't have inner...

    ABU, and other adult diapers: Wouldn't it help with more gather elastic going further?

    I'm glad I'm not the only person who cares about this! It's one of those little things about diapers that matters a whole lot to me for some reason, and it's hard to find on most adult diapers.

    New tykables diaper - plastic shell with positional printing

    Let's say you have 100 customers. 98 of them are totally satisfied and never request any changes; they just buy your diapers. 2 of them request more absorbency. Do you increase the absorbency to please the 2, and risk alienating the 98? Have you done any surveys of your customers to see what...

    What’s your favorite visual aspect of wearing diapers?

    I love it when the leg elastics go all the way up in the back. I like the way it makes the butt poke out a little bit, and creates ruffles around the legs. A lot of adult diapers don't have this. The leg elastics end right at the bottom of the butt, and it creates this rounded, bowling-ball...

    Most Underrated Diaper

    I think the world's most underrated diapers are Prevail Air Overnights. I'd always thought of Prevail as a nursing-home brand so I wasn't expecting to like them so much. They have stretchy sides exactly like Goodnites, one velcro tape per side, and they're super soft and comfortable. They're...

    Is thickness really that relevant?

    I agree 100%. I'm especially sad to see solid mid-range diapers being discontinued and replaced with stupidly absorbent diapers that cost more. Many of them you'd have to wear for a solid 24 hours to fully utilize, and you couldn't go out in public during that time. Who has that much leisure...

    New Tykables

    Have you had customers requesting that you raise your prices? That would surprise me! More to the point, have you had customers requesting that you discontinue all your 6000ml products? I'll be very sorry if I have to stop wearing Tykables, because I like them a lot and I'm glad to support a...
