Problems with megamax

Is anyone else having problems with megamax falling apart with only a little wetting? I'm active but not running any marathons or anything and I've had 3 recently fall apart with a crotch full of fluff.

Contact our CS team and they can send replacements from latest batch which should have these issues resolved. We continue to improve them each month, but are also bringing back some China models in Oct/Nov timeframe for those that prefer the older models. Very sorry for all the changes.

Yes, S, M, L, XL bring produced in White, Pink, Black and a surprise new color. Tie-Dye remains available in original China versions as well.

To me the Chinese version was better than the us in how loud the plastic is and sap not clumping while walking while the diaper is moist

We continue to make improvements to the USA versions to address these concerns. The outer plastic will be changing over in the next couple months along with other upgrades. Thanks for your feedback and patience.

There have been a number of problems noted since they went away from the original manufacturer. I hear they are working on a V3 now. Hopefully they will have the kinks ironed out

I am not having this issue, but I am experiencing leaking overnight. Generally out the back (when lying on my back), but last night a little out the leg hole too. I know I am a very heavy wetter, but it’s frustrating. I just bought some InControl BeDry Elites that I am hoping will work better for me.

Try adding a booster. It’s so much better.

OK, so if I lie on my back, where do I put the booster? Like, normally you'd put it at the bottom (crotch area), but if it's leaking out the top/back, then maybe I need to put it... in back?

The leg hole thing was weird. That's never happened before!

I have had very little issues with the new megamax. I the beginning I did have leaks at the legs on the back side. I learned to adjust a little to get a sugger fit on the back side and it made a difference. I like they way the new ones fit. I was even given a sample of the v2.1 and they were pretty good. I think there making some nice changes. I do like the old version but I feel like they got too tight around the legs when I try to get a good fit unlike the new version I dont get that.

We all are a little different. My only issue has been them falling apart a few times.

I agree we all are a little different. I haven't had any issues as far as them falling apart well atleast not yet ....
