Been using for 4 weeks. Going ok but not advancing, alarm goes off, he (7) wakes up wet, etc. any advice?

Have you limited his fluid intake before bedtime? And make sure he goes to the bathroom right before he lays down for bed. Even if he claims he "just" went.

Stay with it. It works. Just tell your guy that his body is learning at the right pace and to be patient. Nobody goes to college in diapers. It took us 8 weeks to be 100% dry every night.

We purchased the same item about 1 year ago and have had no issues with it. The baby even bangs on it and messes around with it. It sounds like you have a defective unit and should request a replacement at no charge.

Mine works pretty well. Maybe you're using too much liquid or possibly not rinsing pad often enough. Hope it works out for you.

Try running plain water in it. Also let white vinegar and water sit for 60seconds. Wipe out and than try running it. If that doesn't work I'd call Amazon. Should last longer than a month. Have two for 8mths now.

Good morning. I regretted having bought this alarm. It was a waste of money and would have returned it if only I could at that time. I hope this answers a question in your mind about the reliability of this sensor.

I have several suggestions; please check the date on the device. Note that the replacement time is about 10 years. One other problem we had was insects, specifically ants, nesting in the rafters, down in the alarm base. Vacuumed them out, everything worked fine. Reinsert battery, checking for firm settling. Best of luck.

Mine seems to last a couple months. Not overly thrilled with the alarm because it would go off all the time for no reason and now it seems to be working fine.

I'm wondering about this as well...seems like it would have this issue. I just got one but am concerned about using it until my 4 month old can roll in all directions and right himself if need be.

I strongly believe it WILL sound give your proposed scenario as long as you have adjusted the sensitivity level correctly. A tip: if yhe alarm seems like it is sounding too quickly/falsely, it is likely that water is trapped along the thin metal ring inside the circumference of the blue round part. A quick shake or two will remove this water. Also, I used a silver marker to make a couple of reference marks so I could better adjust it. One on the outside if the light blue top and another corresponding one on the outside of the black adjustment ring. Then you can easily see where you are in terms of sensitivity.

U have different settings. I think hi n low. Different settings is wider circumference before alarm goes off. Don't remember actual numbers

I'm still working on that. Misfit should give more information on that. For example: if you sleep 8 hours is 4 hours of deep sleep pretty normal? That's approximately what I get. Misfit needs to improve the software. I turned on the wake up alarm out of curiousity and now am searching for a way to turn it off so it doesn't ring again the next day. I suppose if you clock 2 hours or less of deep sleep that should be investigated. Remember Misfit only reads motion. Maybe a person who turns a lot while sleeping is okay even though this will give him/her low hours of deep sleep. Worth researching how much REM sleep we need.

I had that problem time to time after the first few years. An easy solution is, while it's on and seems to be stuck, pick it up straight out of the water and shake it side to side and front to back for about 15 seconds and place it back in the water. Hope this helps!

Ours did the same thing after 4 years of use. We haven't gotten it fixed yet. If anyone knows a solution to the problem, I'd love to hear it as well.

You appear to have a defective alarm, it should sound as soon as it comes into contact with moisture. Try one last test and this time use water instead of moistened paper and see if it makes a difference. If not you need to contact Amazon and return it. Good Luck

If the alarm is not shutting off after the door is open and shut then I would send back soon as poss as when we started having prob such as with the battery never staying in unless taped in and now when alarm goes off the pill slot hasn't moved over the next pills and having to do it manually.company in beginning wouldn't help with refund or exchange.I like the machine but there are issues with it!

We usually just wipe it clean with a washcloth before reattaching to underpants. The alarm will go off with just a drop of urine. If you get to it quickly, it shouldn't be that wet. Eventually she will learn to stop herself when she hears it, but it may take a little time.

I like it very much and it works...but it does give an accurrate temp..do not think you can turn alarm off but, if you just need to know temp..let it register and remove from water...alarm will then stop if sounding. I have also used a temp probe or thermometer to check water temp. Our granddaughter loves to play with this...she is 3 yrs old now.
