50 -Pack External Condom Catheter 32mm Rochester UltraFlex Self Adhering Silicone Intermediate #33003

My experience using these condoms has been fairly good. The first one I tried had a pin-hole leak in the tube portion. So, I now check when installing a new Condom to ensure that there are no leaks so as to avoid any embarrassing accidents. That is, once everything is in place, I go into the restroom (while still at home) and urinate while checking for any drops of urine leaking out of the system. That way, if a problem exists, I can "fix" it before finding out, while out in public, that the system is leaking. So far, after using about 6 condoms (and the same collection bag), there have been no other leaking problems. I also have no problem with these adhering to the skin and not coming off. If used according to the instructions, they seem to stick very well - maybe TOO well. But, I would rather have condoms that stick too much rather than have them come off at the wrong time. Once properly applied/installed, these condoms stay on all day, even in situations where there is some slight "pull/stretch" between the condom and the collection bag. The only "sticky situation" [pun intended :) ] is that I cannot just peel them off when I am done. They adhere to the skin so tightly that I would tear the skin tissue if I tried to just pull them off. My solution is to use a cotton swab (https://smile.amazon.com/Q-tips-Cotton-Swabs-500-pack/dp/B01LA91S28/ref=sr_1_4?crid=29S00330BXTST&keywords=cotton+swabs&qid=1562623249&s=gateway&sprefix=cotton+swabs%2Caps%2C328&sr=8-4), dip the swab into a container of De-Solv-It (https://smile.amazon.com/Desolv-Citrus-Solution-12-6-pack/dp/B002KSBYS2/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?keywords=de-solv-it&qid=1562623105&s=gateway&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1&smid=A3VDBPE82S43CG), and apply. The application is done by lifting up the edge of the condom and applying the De-Solv-It between the skin and condom until it loosens and can be slid off. Then it is just a matter of using a warm wet wash cloth to wipe up the excess De-Solv-It (and any glue deposits left behind by the condom) and you are done. I use De-Solv-It as it is 100% Organic and Biodegradable. I believe it is safer to use and not as harsh on the skin as some other liquid/chemical "removers" containing petroleum products. I expect to be buying these condoms again when my current supply runs low.

I like these and am glad I discovered them. Saves a lot of diapers overnight, not to speak of soaked bedding in the morning and restless sleep. Some guy left a review, thanks to which i learned not to unroll all the way, and then put a strip of tissue paper around the sticky rim so it does not stick to skin or whatever it comes in contact with. They are too painful to remove if you unroll all the length . I buy glue dissolver to help me get them of.

After trying multiple options I decided to purchase these for my husband who has had a stroke. Have only used them at bedtime to try to eliminate him getting the bed soaked. First two nights were great & used an alcohol wipe to get it off however the 3rd night it did come off leaving a big mess. I started using a skin Tac wipe & a penile strap (all purchased on Amazon). Have been doing this for three nights now & so far it’s been working. I still put pads under him as a precaution. I will purchase them again now that I have figured out what works for us. Overall it’s been a time saver not having to strip the bed daily.

The work great as long as you get the correct size and wash and dry the area first so the self adhesive has clean skin to adhere to. I ordered 50 and there has been a couple that didn’t unroll correctly so I removed it and used another. Overall these work great for my overnight needs!

I guess I should have followed the advice of some of the reviewers and not purchase. More than half of the ones I used so far have very little to mo adhesive. It comes off after 2-3 usage. I am not impressed at all. I still have many left because I bought the bulk package. Can I return for a refund? I am still within my return timeframe.

Good

Seems to be the same as it has been for years, no change in improvements

Husband says they work great , are comfortable, and do not leak.
