Tip for Dry Direct incontinence undies

Just a heads-up. We've been using Dry Direct for a while, but all of a sudden they weren't working as well as before. In fact they were not working well at all. So I was going to try other options, and went to parentgiving.com to order a couple of samples. But for some reason it wouldn't allow me to put them in my cart. So I called to explain the problem. The girl I spoke with looked up my account, and said that I ordered the "Ultimates" that were made in the U.S. She said they also have "Ultimates" that are made in Italy, and those are far superior. I didn't know they had those made in the U.S., and ordered them on my last order. So I looked to see what I had left, and I had two opened packs. One made in Italy, and one made in the U.S. I opened the pack made in Italy, and she slept just short of twelve hours in a DRY bed! So if you order, pay attention where it tells you where they are made. They look the same, but what a difference! These are the ones made in Italy. https://www.parentgiving.com/shop/dry-direct-ultimate-protective-underwear-9310/p/
