New style thick Depends w/ 4Tapes similar to a DECENT diaper

Tried to post in the "General talk about diapers" section but the "Start New Topic" button was not there anyway:

Do you know what is perplexingly strange about Depend's is yes ive bought the crappy 6 tape ones which are paper thin (came in a red packet from a chemist like 6 or something years ago) yet i have seen with my own eyes (and worn) a packet of 4TAPE Depend which were as thick as a Tena Slip (Ultra i think they call them in Nth America) They are completely white plastic back (VERY soft plastic. The tapes are like the ones found on Abriforms or molicares, that is the double tape system and they even have a thick soft waist band

i'll even link you to a medical supply site where you can find them.

I really can't seem to find really any talk about them on any AB/DL forums or other incontinent sites it's like there some kinda secret which people strangely never discuss >.>

The actual Diaper itsself looked a lot http://www.diaperworld.org/Tests/Poise/test.php

Any thoughts??

I lik my diapers to have plastic covering like real baby diapers.

Umm abswooper did you actually read all of my post?

"They are completely white plastic back (VERY soft plastic."...

The plastic on these diapers is much more babyish than abriform X-plus's or Tena Slip maxis or Attends.

Do they come in large size

Yes lilm. Small, medium, large and extra large.

but thats kinda irrelevent. The intention of this thread isa to ask if anyone has heard of these "Super duper good" Depends with 4 tabs?

NO

This is why i made this post. To see if anyone has seen/heard of these.

the ONLY places ive seen them sold or even mentioned is the medical supply stores in Australia i listed in the openeing post...

K i'm a little disappointed with the very little responses ive got here so i'll dig up some more proof

a completely different medical supply website:

http://www.suberia.com.au/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=84&cat=Depend+Fitted+Briefs

Now if you click on "Depend Briefs Normal Medium" you get your

classic 6-tape, loud as a plastic bag piece of junk "Classic"

Depend we all know and hate.

NOW if you click further down the page you find " Depend

Briefs Super Medium" and further down you'll find what i was talking about:

DEPENDS BRIEFS SUPER PLUS MEDIUM

Heres even a pick of them:

[sup]not sure how to embed pics on this forum..[/sup]

I ordered a printed catalog from one of these sites (its an interesting read. Here's what is says in the printed catalog:

Depend brief Super Plus Medium

Capacity=3100ml

Description=80-120cm

Qty=Pack 15

But yeah hope this will jump start things.

Comments/discussionness anyone?

I have found them in several drug stores (walgreens and cvs i believe) in southern ohio

As a follow up, I think I will buy a pack of them this evening to try them out. I will post my experiences with them.

My bad. I should have stopped and looked at the package more clearly. They only have the New Depend briefs, not the diapers.

You mean you brought the pants(brief) instead of diaper style?

I have only seen the Depends diapers with the 6 tapes here in Northeast Indiana. I saw on another AB/DL site that these Depends with 4 tapes are not available in the U.S. right now. 😉

You will not find these in the US, they are from the Depends Professional line that they do not have in the US only AU and UK. So I think you will be dissapointed as there have been some US depends with 4 tapes, but they are no better then the normal six tape ones. If you look on depends site there is a professional line on their AU and UK websites, but if you go to their US website the professional line is no where to be found.

All of us in the usa should write depend and ask for them to sell them here in the states.

Well thanks anin I will have to check them out. personally i hate depends with a passion and wouldnt ever even think of the name willingly but I will be sure to give them a glance 😄
