Baby Products Reviews of Bébésounds Nasal Clear Battery Operated Nasal Aspirator
Customer Review: Excellent as long as you know how best to use it!
Summary: 5 Stars
Some of the reviewers are saying that the suction is not strong enough for thick mucus. This is not mucus you should be trying "suck" from your infant's head regardless, until you've loosened it up. A quick spray or dripping of something like "Little Noses" or "Ocean" saline nasal spray will do the job of loosening up mucus nicely and quickly. Apply a few drops into each nasal passage with baby lying down, let it work for a minute or two, and then suck away using the wide tip rather than the long thin tip. The wide tip forms a better seal over baby's nose and is not as invasive as the longer thinner one. This is a great product for sure!! Soooo much better than the bulbs of old. Quicker to use, so less torture for your baby and when used properly, it gets out so much more mucus than a manual bulb.Customer Review: When the old fashioned Aspirator isn't quick enough or strong enough
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought 2 of these, one for myself and one as a baby shower gift for a 2nd time mom. I've tried it on my 5 mo. old and it didn't work so well BUT... on a 2 year old it worked like a dream. It seems they need to keep their mouths shut in order for there to be adequate suction. My daughter didn't seem to understand or care about the music and she wails whenever I try it on her. Maybe it will come in handy when she's a little older.
As for the quality of the product. The songs are great... it sounds like the ice cream man's music. The unit is easy and quick to disassemble for thorough cleaning. And the little snot reservoir helps reassure you're actually doing it right!
I'd recommend it if your manual aspirator just doesn't do the job anymore.
Customer Review: Great product! Wish we had one with the first two kids.
Summary: 5 Stars
When we had my first two kids they were constantly sick (both have asthma). My husband and I "invented" this. We kept saying, if only they made a little vacuum to get all the gunk out. Our kids hated that bulb thing and would scream and thrash every time we came near them with it. Last summer my coworker had a baby and we saw this in a catalog and bought it for her because we wanted one when we had our kids. Then I got pregnant a few months later and finally got to try it out for myself. I read mixed reviews so wasn't sure whether or not to get it. I'm glad we did. Both of us wish we had had one before. Our third baby hasn't minded using it at all and actually seems happy to have the boogers out of his nose! We both give it two thumbs up!Customer Review: Musical Snot Sucker
Summary: 4 Stars
I've got to wonder about the person who came up with this little gadget. A musical snot sucker. Genius!
We all know that the blue bulb syringe is a horrible torture for little noses. This battery operated nasal aspirator is a tender answer to infants' prayers. It gently sucks out mucus with the accompaniment of a snippet of music. My daughter is so distracted by the music that she forgets to cry.
My only quibble is that I wish the suction were a little stronger. That is the only thing that moved this rating from 5 to 4 stars. Yet when you compare the product to the bulb syringe, this is a 5 star product all the way. I'm recommending it to all my friends.
Customer Review: Works Great!
Summary: 5 Stars
Those pump style(the old way)bulb asp. just really pissed off my baby and didn't suck anything out. There is a bit of a learning curve with this battery operated one but after you get the hang of it....WOW! You can clear nasal passages in seconds. You can actually see the "debris" in the little cup. At first I thought the music was not needed but that also helps keep the baby quiet. I love mine and had it for over a year and would not go without it during cold season. It is also very helpful if you child has reflux and gets milk in their nose.(It will take it right out.)
They now started selling this at walmart. It makes a great gift.
