It would have been helpful to have some instructions on how to determine the right size of the condom catheters as well as some info on how to purchase more without buying the whole kit. I also wish the sticky stuff on the condom catheter was a little less sticky. It hurts to remove it. (Posted on 4/21/12)
On the last batch of clear condoms, the adhesive does not seem as sticky in the past. With this batch, I have a hard time keeping the condom "stuck without leaking'" for 24 hours. Is there a way to make them stick better? I even tried moving down one size. Still does not stick without leaking for 24 hours. (Posted on 4/6/12)
I have an enlarged prostate and often have trouble controlling my bladder. The Stadium Pal is perfect for my needs. I have been using my Pals for a few months. I have worn it for several days at a time with no ill effects. Mostly the length of time I use it depends on how long the external catheter remains secure. I have two Pals, one to use while the other sanitizes with vinegar. The weak point for me is if I have the bag strapped to my calf, the upper bag band slots will eventually tare and fail if I do a lot of walking while the bag needs draining. Sometimes this is unavoidable. I regularly ware saddle boots and I let the bag ride in the side of boot without the straps eliminating this problem. User tip, purging the air out of the collection bag will allow me to walk without sloshing. (Posted on 4/1/12)
After prostate surgery I had difficulty controlling my bladder. The Stadium Pal Kit was a lifesaver - I finally felt like I could leave the house and not worry about embarrassing accidents. (Posted on 2/13/12)
I used the Stadium Pal while marching/walking in a parade that involved a lot of movement, including occasional running and dancing. Afterward I emptied the reservoir in a grassy area totally un-noticed by people nearby. Pal continued working 24 hours later when I finally got a chance to remove it and the external catheter (i.e. 'condom') was still well adhered in place. Considering the intense discomfort I endured last year needing to 'go' during the parade, this device is a God-send. (Posted on 2/10/12)
For 9 of the 12 months that I provided in-home health care for my old friend, 79, I changed a Depend sometimes twice a night having to lift the nearly 200 pound man. After 9 months I damaged my lower back. After finding Stadium Pal, I never lifted my old friend again for the next 3 months, he and I both slept all night .. dry, and comfortable. There is no other better alternative.
Thank you Stadium Pal. (Posted on 1/10/12)
Must have.
This washlet is a must have for all. I have experienced some problems with the remote control. Otherwise, a great product and a necessity. (Review by Kleen)
