Having been a little overwhelmed by the choices between all bedwetting alarms and which one to get, I ordered the Chummie first to try it on my son. So far, I like the results we have got. My son has been using pull ups for over 4 years now (he is 9). The savings, convenience, comfort and level of support provided by the company are all are outstanding with this product. I haven't purchased any other bedwetting alarm in the past and so I can't really compare it to whats out there. The Chummie was purchased for primarily 2 reasons - parents feedback on this site and customer support (which I will talk of later).
1. FORM-FACTOR
The Chummie is compact, light and easy to hold. My sons is able to grasp it well at night when the alarm starts to alert him. It is also very easy to clean and maintain. It does scratch easily, but I have noticed that a little bit of buffing with a soft cloth will help cover any unsightly scratches. Chummie is very light and he doesn't notice it when its attached to his pajama top. The clip is a convenient way to keep the alarm attached to his pajama top.
2. CONTROLS
I personally like the fact that there are only two buttons on the system. One to program it, the other to turn it off. Its important to read the user manual if you want to get a better understanding of how to change tones, adjust vibration and control volume level. If that's not important, just plug in the sensor and its ready to go. The buttons could also be easily programed by my son. That is exactly what I wanted.
3. APPEARANCE
Looks very cute and the smiley face helps him. He even gave it a name: Nino the Ninja! Nino became his friend who would help him with sleepovers af friends places soon.
4. DISPLAY
The lights are very bright. There are two of them. They light that comes out from them help my son find the alarm at night when it beeps. Also the sound is loud. There are two levels to chose from. I recommend starting out soft and then going loud so as not to scare your child. Vibration is essential and Chummie has hit the nail with the vibration; strong and effective.
5. SENSOR
This was the critical make or break factor when we purchased a bedwetting alarm. The sensor what came with this product is very comfortable and easy to attach. My son did not feel it at night and maintained his sleep. This is important because I didn't want him all grumpy in the morning. Maintaining is easy too. I used warm water and a bounty tissue. Although the company recommended against using alcohol wipes, I would use them once a week to disinfect the sensor. It made no difference to the functionality of the product in my opinion.
6 BATTERY LIFE
So far so good. I have had no need to replace batteries in the Chummie. For the first few weeks, the alarm would go off 3 times a night, every night for 2 weeks and he would wake up after 5-10 minutes. A few weeks later, as he got more adapted to the Chummie, those alert frequencies decreased and he would wake up earlier. I can safely say that the battery will last several months without replacement.
7. PRICE!
Overall, at $99 Chummie is not a great deal, it is an outstanding deal. Compared to buying pull ups or medication, you will recover the cost of the Chummie in a matter of a few months because it does not need any expensive replacements or refills. I did not calculate my laundry savings, but it could run into the tens of dollars a month. What I saved on are pull up costs. That was around $40 per month. Huge savings.
8. CONVENIENCE
Set up and maintenance was very easy. Like the "Set it and forget it" mantra on TV. Set it up at night and go to bed while the Chummie does its work.
9. SUPPORT
The company is responsive and helpful. I called in a few times for set up and to get a realistic expectation of what to expect and when to expect seeing positive results. They are helpful and knowledgeable. Perhaps my best experience with customer support thus far.
10. RESULTS
Super fast results. My son is not wetting any more. Some reviews said 8 weeks, some said 12 weeks. For us it was less than all of those. Still no wet nights after stopping to use the Chummie. THe company proposes a 14 dry night program which were successfully achieved.
SUMMARY
If you're new to a bedwetting alarm make sure you understand what you are buying here. Chummie is a bedwetting alarm which is a complete system. It comes with a cute little progress diary and certificate as well. Don't think of this as an add-on product or potty training product, because it really isn't. This device is made (basically) exclusively to treat bedwetting.
Bottom line, you will not find a better bedwetting alarm out there. The reason that this device is so amazing is not for what it can do, but for what it can do at such a cheap price. The technology, not the price tag, is the story here.
The Chummie is a solid start. It is "perfect" enough for me to say it is a five star product taking everything into consideration. I would have no problems recommending the Chummie to other parents who can take advantage of it. This product more than lives up to what it is designed to do. If you plan on making your child stop wetting the bed, I think you will really find Chummie is a pretty incredible device for the money.

Truly a Success, great product for deep sleepers
My 12 years old son struggles with deep sleep. He wets the bed nearly every night, YES, he “wets the bed nearly every night". Not that I am proud, but I am frustrated of buying new mattress pads and tired of doing laundry. I have 3 kids, and he is the only one with this this problem. We have tried everything without success. He is scared of sleepovers because he doesn’t want his friends to know that he wets the bed at night. My son was losing her confidence so I decided to take him to a pediatric urologist. He suggested an alarm but not a specific one. I started researching and asked around for suggestions. Then one of my co-worker recommended to buy Chummie Bedwetting Alarm. This was the one and only Alarm I have purchased for my son. It works great and my biggest regret is that I should have bought this sooner. My son followed the instruction faithfully. He has been using Chummie for almost 4 weeks. First week we had one incident, week two we had 3 incidents and week 3 and 4 has been clear. My son is so happy and so am I. This product is really astonishingly effective, in about 2 weeks, we saw a drastic reduction in wet nights. He has been using this Alarm for over 5 weeks now, he gets up dry every day. We are so happy that we have tried this.
