Bedwetting Store and the Malem bedwetting alarm are classic
examples of exaggerated marketing claims and unreasonable attempts to get sales
at the expense of deceitful tactics and planning. This time, we will analyze
the Malem Bed-Side Alarm. The product I available at
On the
Malem page, the manufacturer says “The most comprehensive Enuresis Alarm in the
world” We are left baffled and confused. How do you come up with this claim?
What makes your alam the most comprehensive alarm in the world? Have you
compared it to other bed-side alarms? Why do you believe that it is
comprehensive?
The
Webster dictionary defines comprehensive as “complete; including all or nearly
all elements or aspects of something.” So why is the Malem Bed-Side bedwetting
alarm comprehensive? What does it have that other alarms don’t.
Here are some other claims
from both the Malem website and the Bedwetting Store website
* “the most comprehensive and adaptable Enuresis Alarm available.”
* “the most comprehensive and adaptable Enuresis Alarm available.”
How is this alarm
adaptable? Does it adapt over time? Is it a self learning bedwetting alarm?
What is the science behind this claim? Patent? Research? Again, why is it
comprehensive?
* “Ergonomically designed smart and colourful."
It appears that this alarm
is similar in shape and form to all other Malem alarms. Then why is this the
only Malem alarm that is “ergonomically designed”. How is it smart? Again
proof, proof, proof! Colorful? You call one Red color colorful?
* “with a reliable, rust-proof, embossed and comfortable plastic Bed-Mat."
* “with a reliable, rust-proof, embossed and comfortable plastic Bed-Mat."
Thank you for letting us
know that plastic is rust-proof. This was highly educational and inspiring. We
now know that a plastic mat is rust proof, smart and comprehensive.
* “Volume control with minimum preset.”
We have absolutely no idea
what this means and we believe neither does the manufacturer.
* “A unique bedside device for children who don't want to wear an alarm
The Bedwetting Store like
to call all their alarms unique. Doesn’t anyone else make bed-side alarms? What
about Nite Train’r?
* “This unique alarm unit has a wide range of sound options that allow you to pick the one that optimally meets your needs..”
* “This unique alarm unit has a wide range of sound options that allow you to pick the one that optimally meets your needs..”
Evidence? How was this
determined? Etc. A gross exaggeration.
* “A flashing light permits parents and children to locate the unit in a dark room."
Does the unit fall off at
night? How bright is the light? Why is no information provided on sound and
light?
* “Variable volume control."
How many variable levels?
1, 5, 100? Why don’t you mention that? What is the volume step size? How loud
is volume at 8 inches?
* “Long lasting AA alkaline batteries - never a danger of electrical shock like older style units
Shock? The older Malem
bedwetting alarms shocked children? Thank you for letting us know that. How
long is your battery life? Why don’t you provide details?
