Adult Diapers: Reviews

Most reviewers consider Abena's Abri-Form X-Plus to be the best premium brief-style adult diaper available. (Briefs wrap around the waist and are closed on the sides with tapes.) Top-rated for absorbency and leakage… protection, the X-Plus is ideal for extended wear or overnight use. While users say it can be bulkier under clothing than less absorbent brands, many with moderate to severe incontinence say the trade-off is worth it for the added security. The X-Plus adult diaper has four refastenable tapes, a wetness indicator, standing leak guards and an elasticized waist. It's available in sizes small to extra-large.

Attends Briefs Waistband Style get excellent reviews for comfort and fit. While these briefs don't perform as well on absorbency tests as the Abena X-Plus adult diapers, users like the close fit of the waistband and say… the absorbent core does a good job for moderate incontinence or single wettings. Where the Attends briefs shine is in their discreet fit under clothing. The Attends Briefs Waistband Style briefs come with six tapes, leg gathers and an elasticized waistband. They are available in sizes medium and large.

Although it doesn't offer side… protection, the Abri-San X-Plus does have a highly absorbent inner core with standing leak guards and a waterproof plastic backing. While it can be worn with specialized reusable mesh underpants, users say it also works well with regular snug-fitting underwear. If you have a mild problem, pads may be all you need.
