The VibraLITE3 vibrating watch provides a great silent reminder. It features an auto restart countdown mode that vibrates at any time interval you choose (e.g., every two hours). The watch vibrates for approximately 20 seconds, and then automatically resets itself to count down again. Easily… More

BEST USES Comments: The invention of a vibrating watch is a great idea for children who need reminders to help them go to the bathroom. It costs a lot of money and although my child was extremely responsible, the band broke within two weeks. The band was also a little bit big. |

Comments: On the advice of the doctor we ordered this watch to help get our 7 year old on a better toileting schedule. It's been workig like a charm. SHe was resistant to wearing it at first but now wears it and complies for the most part and we have seen a definate decrease in the day time wetting. She picked out pink but doesn't like how big it is on her. When my husband was first figuring out how to get it to work and vibrate he actually wore it in the house..... but overall happy with the watch. |

Comments: My daughter has been wearing and using the bathroom more often which helps. Even though it is a velcro strap the watch is huge on her (shes 6). A piece of the watch, not necessary to the function of it has broken off. But other than that we are pleased. |

Comments: As an exasperated parent who has tried everything imaginable to help the daytime-wetting problems of her 8-yr-old son, watch timers have proved to be the key solution. We originally had just a regular watch that beeped every couple of hours, but the noise was disruptive in school, and it relied on my son re-setting it every time, which he would often forget. This watch vibrates silently and re-sets itself! We rely on it so much that, when he lost the watch a couple of months ago, we immediately sent away to purchase a new one. It is a fairly large watch, fine for an 8-year-old but probably too bulky for a 5-yr-old. Also the watch has lots of different features and settings, so the child has to be old enough to not get confused if he presses the wrong button. |

Comments: The band on the watch has broken and it only lasted about three weeks. My father purchased this watch for my son and it has helped him but the band has not held up. |

Comments: I bought this watch for my 6 year old son who has nighttime incidents...we are trying to "learn" to go more during the day so there is less wet at night. The face of the watch is quite large for a small person...ie, first grader and the velcro strap does not get small enough around his wrist. I went to[@] and bought a new band, it is smaller and works much better. The quality is good...although, and it may be because of his age, we lost a side button; this does not effect the use of the watch. Overall a good purchase for the desired affect... |

Comments: I think the watch is a decent quality but when the strap breaks within a month or less and I can't seem to get anyone to replace it, I believe I could do better. I didn't expect a [$] watch to break in less than a month. The company that makes the watch implies that maybe my son was too hard on the watch. |

Comments: This is a worthwhile investment when you have a child with "accidents". My 7 year old was really struglling, but she was reminded by her watch to try to go to the bathroom every two hours, and before we knew she was dry all day! The only down would be that it was hard for me to figure out how to make it buzz instead of ring. |

BEST USES Comments: This watch has actually changed my sons behavior toward a schedule he needs to keep. He was born with Spina Bifida and needs to be catheterized intermittently throughout the day. Before the watch: There was all too frequent foot stomping and attitude when it was time. We always seemed like we had to remind him because he would not watch his times. After the watch: There was a transition from resistance at first to ownership of the process. The foot stomping and attitudes virtually disappeared and he does it without being reminded. He also is proactive by listening to the signs his body is giving him and goes ahead of schedule if needed. To us, this has been amazing. He likes the vibration feature, even though it is a bit strong, because it lets him know its time while helping to maintain his privacy. His only complaints are the strength of the vibration and the thick band can make his arm sweaty. |

Comments: My daughter uses this daily for the discrete vibrating reminders. The battery runs out in a few months if you use this function every day. That's ok, but, the leather watch band on the pink watch looks ancient within 2 weeks and has now broken - and we haven't owned the watch for a year. Also, the screws on the face plate are coming off - hope they aren't functional. This is the only girl's vibrating watch we could find, but, I would not call it high quality. It almost is. I think such a product should last at least 2 years without falling apart. |

PROS CONS BEST USES Comments: I purchased this watch for my 7 year old who had to retrain his bladder because he was constantly waiting to go at the last minute. This watch has a vibration feature that's supposed to be descrete and quiet... anything but. He was unable to wear it during school hours because of the loudness of the vibration.... Not a good purchase. Would not purchase this again. |

Comments: The Lap/reset-button fell off after less than one week. So we need to use a needle to activate this button's function. Luckily most of the daily used functions can be handled without this button. The strap (velcro) is a little too big for our 8-yr old son. Nice color and appearance. The vibrating silent alarm helps him to remember his fixed intervals. |

Comments: I bought this for my 10 year old son. He needed to be reminded to use the bathroom and this watch did the job. He liked that it was discrete and quiet for school but preferred the audible alarm on weekends. It was easy for him to set and change the settings to suit his needs. Strap was too big so we made another hole. It was still a bit bulky. This was a disadvantage as he needed to take it off during gym period. |
