Little Noses Stuffy Nose Kit, 1 kit (Pack of 4) Review

Little Noses Stuffy Nose Kit, 1 kit (Pack of 4)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
In the pack of four, one of the bottles of Saline was leaking, ruining the packaging and making me hesitant to use that bottle, so I threw it away. Also, for what this is...four small bottles of saline and what seem like cheap nasal aspirators, seems expensive. When I used this on my little one, it didnt seem to work at all.

I love these drops to clear my newborn's stuffy nose. My only complaint is that simply turning the bottle over makes the drops rapidly expel. It is difficult to use with a little one.

Simply Saline Baby Nasal Mist, Super Size, 3-Ounce Review

Simply Saline Baby Nasal Mist, Super Size, 3-Ounce
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We live in a dry climate and need to use saline sprays to keep baby's nostrils from drying out too much during the day, per the pediatrician's advice. At night we use a humidifier in the room, but you can't really lug a humidifier around. Anyway, the cheaper brands such as little noses, etc. apparently squirt too much or in a way that makes the baby really uncomfortable, because with other brands there's a lot of crying and wriggling involved. When we use the Baby Simply Saline, however, the baby stays still and even sighs with what seems to be relief. BIG difference.

The First Years Baby Healthcare Kit Review

The First Years  Baby Healthcare Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The aspirator has no suction power and only irritated my son. The nail clippers are not sharp enough to cut a newborns soft nails. I use my own Revlon clipper especially since I am comfortable with the feel of it already. The thermometer is sooo... slow, I get make an educated guess faster. The case is cute and I am sure the medicine droppers are ok...haven't needed those yet. But all in all, I threw half of this kit in the garbage.

I bought this item yesterday for my son who is ill. I plugged it into the wall in the room where he plays mostly. This immediately started clearing him out because he started sneezing. I would recommend this item for anyone who has little ones.

Average Reviews:

These are very nice to have for little ones (and for big ones, too!). They do not contain medicine, so it's ok for them to have more than one within a short amount of time, if needed/wanted. My 3-year-old likes them, so that's a great thing when he's not feeling well and doesn't want to drink as much; it's something to keep his throat moist, to help with or prevent soreness, and it's good for soothing coughs, too.

Little Fever's Fever/Pain Reliever Infant Drop  1-Ounce (Pack of 2)
Average Reviews:

This works, but the flavor is definitely missing. It tastes very "mediciny" as in comparison to the store brands of acetaminaphin. Also, be careful of the dosage. The dosage is different than the average bottle of infant acetaminaphin. We have been fighting a fever in my daughter and I brought the bottle with me to the Dr's office b/c she was due for a dosage and she had me change the dosage b/c Little Fever's is 1ml per 80mg vs the average infant acetaminophen is 0.8ml per 80mg.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Bought this earscope to use on our 4-month old infant, but can't see down to her eardrum. We took it to the doctor with us and asked him to show us how to use it, and he said it was useless: the infant tip is too short to see the eardrum, and the longer tips are too fat to fit in a baby's ear canal.

UBIMED Cleanoz Nasal Aspirator Kit Review

UBIMED Cleanoz Nasal Aspirator Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This product does not preform as easily and efficiently as the manufacturer states. The major problem is that it only allows for a short blast of suction. And by "short" I mean only 2 seconds at best. And the suction level is incredibly low; no where near enough to get the job done the way they say it should. I get better results from the the bulb aspirator we brought home from the hospital.
The design is uncomfortable and awkward; it makes you work at angles that don't come naturally. I'm not sure what they mean by "dolphin" design other than the look. Why they feel this shape should make things easier is beyond me. But whatever the reason...don't be fooled into thinking this is some kind of revolutionary design concept. The fact is the aspirator doesn't fit naturally or comfortably into your hand or your baby's nose.
And last, the "disposable reservoir nozzle" is nothing more than a plastic tip with a water balloon attached to it. And when I say, "water balloon" that's what I mean. They have taken an actual water balloon and attached it to the removable nozzle and that is where the waste from your baby's nose is suppose to get sucked into. Look closely at the picture; those pink things attached to the tips are the water balloons. As the vacuum (and I use that term loosely) sucks air, it draws air into the water balloon and when the balloon expands enough it then plugs the hole of the vacuum, essentially stopping the suction from going any further. That's how they stop the aspirator from actually going long enough to suck anything of consequence out of your baby's nose.
Very disappointed in the product, but even more disappointed in myself for being fooled by their play on words in advertising. My bad for falling for it.

Apothecary Eazy Care Medi-Scope, Magnifying Light - 1 kit Review

Apothecary Eazy Care Medi-Scope, Magnifying Light - 1 kit

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this same exact otoscope set at Walgreens a couple months ago for around $10 and was not impressed. I am sure it is the same kit because it looked exactly like this and it came with the same little attachments and mirror. It was all plastic and had a flimsy feel. It felt more like a fisher price toy you would buy for your child to play doctor than a functional light to see inside the ear. You had to push down on the pocket clip to get it to turn on. You could see inside the ear but the view was somewhat distorted. The light was also somewhat dim. I ended up taking it back for a refund since I felt it was a waste of my money.

This is a great product. I use it for my baby to help keep her nasal passages moist through the night. She was waking up at night because of trouble breathing related to boogers. This has really helped her. I use it in the morning and evening. Much more frequently when she has a cold. She doesnt mind it too bad. This product is identical to the simply saline regular (which is not especially for babies) with the exception of a ridge around the nozzel which keeps you from inserting it too far. I was hoping it would have a soft rubber nozzel but it is the hard plastic.

Simply Saline Adult Nasal Mist, Cold With Menthol, 3-Ounce Review

Simply Saline Adult Nasal Mist, Cold With Menthol, 3-Ounce
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This spray is fantastic. I have suffered with allergy and sinus problems all my life. It is so bad that I even had the sinus surgery to clear out my sinuses. I have used the regular Simply Saline and it can help with moisturizing your sinuses during dry periods. I saw this menthol Simply Saline offered on Amazon and thought I'd give it a try. I didn't see it in any stores. OMG, I used it at a time when I couldn't breath through my nose due to a lot of congestion and within moments I was totally opened up. I have never had anything do that for me before and it was fantastic. The openness doesn't last a long time, but you give yourself another spray and you can breath again. I was so impressed with this product that I bought 4 bottles to give family members who have the same trouble with their sinuses. I also wanted to have a spare just in case it disappears from the market. I've learned over the years that everytime I find something that works it then is discontinued. I'll probably be purchasing more in the near future and start hoarding them.

Safety 1st Hospital's Choice Complete Healthcare Kit Review

Safety 1st Hospital's Choice Complete Healthcare Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I registered for this without really thinking things through. I have been disappointed with the quality of the items. We had to use the medicine dropper when our son was only 2 weeks old, and it's very difficult to use. If you don't get the medicine dosage right the very first time, it's almost impossible to adjust it. Way too much air gets trapped inside. Additionally, it's hard to clean. As for the bulb syringe- use the one you get from the hospital. It's soooo much better. The themometer is accurate, but it doesn't beep!!! I got very frustrated trying to take my son's temperature under his arm. He was crying, and I had to keep staring at the small digital screen as well as hold him down.
The nail clippers are okay. I do like how they have a rather ergonomic handle.
Instead of buying a kit, buy what you need separately. You'll pay more, but you'll get a better product.

Little Remedies Everything Baby Needs Travel Kit Review

Little Remedies Everything Baby Needs Travel Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am rating this only 3 stars because the product(s) pictured show more items than what is in the item description and what you actually get... I was a little disappointed by this.
In the photo, one of the items pictured in the kit is "LITTLE COLDS MULTISYMPTOM COLD RELIEF" (front middle item)
Naturally, I assumed this was included in the kit, but my kit did not come with this, nor is this item listed in the amazon product description.
In the photo, the product also has a list of the items included on the product itself. It says "BOTTOM SPRAY" is included in the kit. This is not listed in the amazon product description, and it also didn't come in my kit.
"TEETHING RING" is also listed on the front of the package in the photo, but again, it is not listed in amazon's product description and it also did not come in my kit.
The items that I *did* get in my kit were the following:
-Little Noses Saline Spray
-Little Tummys Gas Relief Drops
-Medicine Dropper
-3 Saf T Pops (look like lollipops)
-Teething Gel
-Nose Aspirator
-Nail Clipper
Ironically, the last two items, the nose aspirator and the nail clippers are NOT listed as items included on the front of the package in the photo, but they are listed in amazon's product description, and they did come in my kit.
So I'm not sure what happened here, perhaps this company has two kinds of travel kits or used to make one travel kit and now makes another and amazon is using an old photo. Either way, I didn't get what I was expecting really.
And to be honest, I don't know that I would recommend this product or buy it again myself because all of the medicines listed when bought seperately are almost exactly the same size or perhaps only a bit bigger, so it's not like you're saving a lot of space by using the "travel" sizes in this kit.
