Works well, comfortable, reasonably priced also. Kudos to Mr. Wiesner.
So far (after over 2 month's use) am still very happy with this clamp. It's comfortable, and it works well stopping leaks. I'd been using a different clamp for years, one that is no longer sold (and they do eventually wear out), so I am very happy to find a replacement available that is also satisfactory. In fact, just bought another as back-up, because who knows how long Wiesner will be in business.
Some advice:
A) The clamp is hinged on one side, with some adjustment for tightness on the other. If the looser settings are used, the clamp is open more to one side and there's a tendency for it to slide sideways. Then the raised part that shuts off the urinary tube is no longer in optimal position. So it's best to use the insert that permits you to close the clamp as much as possible (with comfort as your guide, of course.)
B) I find it helpful to use talc as a skin protectant, applied to the penis and the clamp. Avoid breathing talc dust however, it's a carcinogen if it gets inside the body. Corn starch isn't quite as good IMHO.
C) Kegels will decrease your general leakiness, even if they won't solve it. When you can knock off 100 sphincter contractions, you'll definitely see the change, maybe sooner than that. The urinary sphincter muscle gets bigger and stronger, like any muscle. Can you stop your flow mid-stream voluntarily and completely? Also learn to tighten up automatically when doing things that cause leakage, like bending down to pick up an item.
D) None of these clamps are perfect. There's a trade-off between leak-stoppage and comfort - ie. how tight they can be made. To take care of small leaks, buy some toddler-size socks. Trim off the elastic and perforate the edge. Hang it around your waist with a shoe lace, and use it to hold a small urine-absorbant pad (20 for $1 at Dollar Tree) in place over the penis & clamp to catch minor drips.
E) I do not advise wearing a clamp all night. Give that ol' penis a break if you can. I just use a somewhat larger size urine-absorbant pad at night, with no clamp, just hold it in place with an elastic around the penis.
F) Coffee will usually increase one's leakage.
