Malem: Deceit by Perversion and Concealment

It's incredible how all of these bedwetting alarms (Malem, Chummie, Wet-Stop) claim to be the "best" yet they do not post actual references and research to substantiate such claims! It's fine to describe the features of the product or to even provide a comparison of all the products, as in http://www.urinealarms.com/Wired_Alarm_Chart.html . Yet, none of those three aforementioned sites provide scientific and conclusive evidence that substantiates their claims. This can create doubts about their credibility.

A page on the Malem website states Malem "Ultimate" range Enuresis Alarms are designed to maximise effectiveness by providing a selectable combination of sound(s) and/or vibration to suit the needs of the user. " (the bold emphasis is ours). Have they truly compared all the bed-wetting alarm systems in the world? What measurements did they use (particularly for maximise effectiveness)? Which authority conducted these studies? When, where and how?

A quick review of http://www.urinealarms.com/Wired_Alarm_Chart.html suggests that Malem is not the most effective bedwetting alarm, and certainly not the best as claimed by B. Mercer “friendlypharmacist” on his Listmania! List on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Best-Bedwetting-Alarms/lm/RJGXTL3DMSKUS)

It is the same story or issue with " The BEST bedwetting alarms on the market are from Malem.  This one has both sound and vibration to help your child get dry. " Where is this proof that can be examined and studied? Nor does Malem or the Bedwetting Store provide any links to research or studies? Where does this wonderfully broad and ethereal quote comes from? Hype?

"Our #1 Bedwetting Alarm”

The Bedwetting Store does a brilliant job of confusing parents into purchasing the Malem bedwetting alarm by making them believe that this statement is being made by Amazon on whose site the alarm is listed.

This constitutes deception by perversion. Describing products as "BEST" and how they are different is often done. But companies in this industry should realize that parents and other users deserve real information and hard data to make a thorough decision on which bed-wetting alarms may be suitable for them. Not false hype with no justification!

With respect to data about the Malem bedwetting alarm, why can we not find physical sizes and weights about this alarm on your site or a referenced site? As to performance, customers at Amazon and another prominent retailer of your alarm rate it as 3 (we can easily determine that most of the reviews are false and promoted by the Bedwetting Store). These are very negative opinions by users who have used and reviewed your product. The obvious questions relate to what you are hiding about your product that customers dislike so much?

The Bedwetting Store website lists Alarm Warranty: 1 year on alarm, 90 days on sensor. Although this warranty is normal with industry standards, you do not mention what a customer needs to do to replace the product on the purchase link. All of this is indicative of deceit by concealment.

It is disappointing to see a company like the Bedwetting Store resort to dirty tactics to sell their Bedwetting alarms. Bedwetting Store and Malem, making up your own superlative claims and concealing relevant information is not wise. 

To truly compare Malem with all relevant competitors in today’s marketplace, look at http://www.urinealarms.com/Wired_Alarm_Chart.html . This is the most comprehensive set of data and facts about bedwetting alarms that we have seen. Malem does not fare well. This explains why Malem and the Bedwetting Store resort to deceit and propaganda to promote the Malem bedwetting alarm!

 

The Bedwetting Store is the only seller who advertises and continues to sell the Malem Bedwetting Alarm. All other sellers have either realized the truth about the Malem Bedwetting Alarm or have abandoned it, but the Bedwetting Store continues its deceit.

 

Note:
Malem(TM) and the Bedwetting Store have a very large number of entries about their deceit in this blog. There are so many more entries and much more serious bad activities attributable to Malem and the Bedwetting Store, so that Malem and the Bedwetting Store have significantly more entries than all other manufacturers combined. You can read all of the Malem and Bedwetting Store deceit entries on this blog.

Malem and the Bedwetting Store have also been given a 0-stars blog of their own so that its many examples of deceit can stand out by themselves. The Malem Alarm and Bedwetting Store blog is at

Malem: Deceit by Perversion and Concealment

Malem: Deceit by Perversion

Malem bedwetting alarm has such an overabundance of deception by perversion (hype, exaggerations, and misapplication of facts) and deception by concealment (not providing relevant facts) that they may provide many entries for this blog.

" Our #1 Recommended Alarm."

Whose number one alarm is this? The reader is intentionally mislead to believe tha this is Amazon’s number one alarm when it isn’t. Number one from what angle? Price, functionality, user experience, sales?

" New and improved, this alarm combines light, sound and vibration to help even the deepest sleeper wake."

As an enuresis alarm, we hope that the above statement will be true. Can you guarantee that all deep sleepers will wake up to your alarm?


" Alarm box is backed by a 1 year warranty. CE Mark and FDA registered."

The Malem bedwetting alarm is exclusively sold by the Bedwetting Store in USA. Nearly all alarms have a CE mark and are registered with the FDA. It is not unique or special for Malem, and applies to every bedwetting alarm whose facility is registered with the FDA. Bedwetting Store, the distributor of Malem, fills out a simple FDA form every year, lists Malem on it, and pays a registration fee to the FDA. That’s it. The FDA in no way tests or certifies or even looks at Malem for it to be registered with the FDA. This is a Facility registration, and all enuresis alarms sold in the U.S. from U.S. sales locations must have their facilities registered with the FDA. Again, lots of hype.


"CE Mark." 

CE is a test for the European Union, and is rarely used unless electric voltages are high enough to cause possible injury (say 120V or 240V AC). It also includes the EU equivalent of the U.S. FCC radio frequency test. Such a certification, the U.S. equivalents being the UL or ETL certifications, and the FCC certification, are rarely bothered with for small battery powered devices that are not involved with wireless in any sense, and usually unnecessary. For all practical purposes, mentioning this CE certification is for advertising hype and nothing else.


"Used in clinical studies."

There is not one report on the Amazon description that lists clinical studies performed using Malem or other bedwetting alarms sold by the Bedwetting Store. This is of significance to the reader and purchaser and Malem and the Bedwetting Store do a good job of tricking the consumer through deceit.


So Malem has one complete page of hype to try and create a great impression on the "naïve" reader who may not understand the significance or value of the words used on this page.

Malem: Deceit by Perversion

" Award Winning Bedwetting Alarms”

Malem Enuresis Alarms (bedwetting alarms) are designed to maximize success in the treatment and cure of bedwetting and provide a safe, efficient, economical and permanent cure for bedwetting in contrast to the short term relief, if that, offered by expensive and potentially dangerous drugs.

"Award Winning Bedwetting Alarms" The Malem bedwetting alarm website - http://www.malemmedical.com/awardsshows one  award won by the Malem bedwetting alarm. All three awards were issued by the same organization for the years 2001. 2002. 2003. What happened after that? Did Malem and Bedwetting Store stop greasing the palms of the executives of the organization? This is clearly an award in exchange for cash and has no bearing on the quality or performance of the Malem bedwetting alarm. The manufacturer Malem and seller Bedwetting Store try to create the erroneous impression that they are an award winning alarm today.

"The positive aesthetic appeal of the Malem products help to avoid the stigma which is often associated with bedwetting." Seriously? Can you tell us of one example when a child ran up to their parent and said “I want the beautiful Malem alarm”? The only stigma it avoids is in the minds of the parents that they may get an “award winning alarm” when In fact they get an old outdated alarm.

" The awards recognise the significant benefits to be gained when using Malem products which combine function and performance with good looks.." These awards are look good feel good awards that have absolutely nothing to do with performance and functionality of the Malem bedwetting alarm.

“Middle east Hospital Health and Innovation Awards 2010” We can say with a grain of salt that the Malem has had no innovation since they were introduced. Maybe the Middle East hospital just realized that there is a bedwetting alarm and decided to award it to their own.

“The MALEM ULTIMATE uses inexpensive AAA batteries that last up to 10 times longer than standard "button" batteries found in nearly all other bedwetting alarms.” Which bedwetting alarm uses button batteries? To our knowledge, nearly all use the same inexpensive AAA batteries found int he Malem bedwetting alarm.

“Compact and lightweight (less than two ounces including two AAA batteries) with all the advanced features and advantages of the world famous Malem bedwetting alarms.”? What is less than two ounces? One ounce? Zero Ounce. Why doesn’t the bedwetting store say that Malem is featherweight or better yet say that Malem is so light that you can’t weigh it? Once again “World Famous”. Bedwetting Store, when will the lies end?

Unique Easy-Clip sensor stays put on briefs. Isn’t it true that the DryBuddyEZ clip is 50% tighter than the Malem bedwetting alarm clip sold at the bedwetting store? The reason is because the Malem clip falls off.

“Loud enough so parents can respond.” What about the child? Are you suggesting that the Malem bedwetting alarm does not wake up the child and only parents will respons. Guess its true since they are the ones spending $100 on your alarm.

These are self-serving and self-promoting inventions by people primarily interested in marketing hype as opposed to actual facts.
