XP Med has announced that diaper prices are going up. Most noticeable is the price of the ConfiDry 24/7 which has been available at a reduced promotional price which is ending on April 25th. It appears that the new price may be about 24% higher, although Gary hopes to negotiate a permanent small price reduction, TBD.

Although I recently had ordered an additional case of Dry 24/7 in anticipation of this price increase, I just ordered another.

If you are an XP Med customer, as I think most of us are, you may wish to replenish your diaper supplies now.

Is this for the a+ too?
I'm getting a pack tomorrow to replace a pack of comfidry that were defective and was hoping to make them my go to if they work out.

justj,

XP Med indicates that, at the present time, the prices on the A+ are not affected.

good to know!
thanks john!

I was hoping they wouldn't raise the price! I did order 2 cases that I just got so I'm good for a little longer. It'll be hard to stomach 120.00 per case again. I hope it doesn't happen. Sometime it seem like they got you right where they want you.

Don, I could not agree more. The ConfiDry 24/7 at the promotional price was an excellent value. The Dry 24/7 had little competition at that price point. It will be a little less competitive at the new price, but, remember that the new price still is being negotiated by Gary of XP Med.

I agree with you. I just found out about the price increase and quickly emailed Gary. I am now on the auto ship and I do not want to be paying over a hundred bucks for any diaper. I love the Comfy Dry diapers however I WILL love them much less if the price goes up. I sent instructions that when the price takes affect to switch me to the absorbancy plus level fours.

I'm not at all keen on forking over another $240.00 per year either. It's a great product for me and would hate to make any kind of change at this point. Makes me feel a little trapped. I've tried those level 4 products & without the cuffs they are pretty much worthless in my opinion. Using a booster with them just makes matters worse. I really hope they rethink the price increase as this may cost the company more by lost sales than they would gain. By no fault of my own I'm incontinent and I need to manage it. Getting no help from my health insurance doesn't help either.... and I have a good policy! I need a quality product that I can afford. I can't just stop protecting myself. IF insurance did cover these products I know for a fact that the diaper companies would sell the products to them at a much reduced rate while maintaining quality. They would do it because they have increased volume of product sold. This is all very very frustrating. They know they have a captive market.

I don't know but maybe it's time to move to cloth. I've no idea if anybody has any experience on what to get & what to use to try & get through a 24 time period on 3-4 changes per day? What combination? Any help out here?

XP Medical has posted some new diaper prices.

My favorite, the ConfiDry Dry 24/7 now costs $113.95 for a case of 72 diapers in size Large ($1.58 per diaper). That is up from $99.95.

So far there is no change to the posted prices for the A+, the Seni Quatro, or the breathable Tena Slip Maxi.
