Earcheck Middle Ear Monitor with Physician-Accuracy Review

This is a very helpful little device that every parent of a young child should have. I've been using EarCheck for a few years now, and has been accurate every time.
I recently had reason to doubt its results when getting a "4" and "5" readings on my child's ears after pediatrician (actually 2 different doctors within the same practice) told me that both ears are perfectly fine. However, my instinct told me to trust EarCheck over the pediatrician(s), and I insisted on referral to ENT specialist.
The visit to the ENT showed that there WAS fluid in one of the ears (it was clear fluid so there was no infection per se) and the other ear, although there was no fluid, had a "negative pressure" which also makes eardrum not function properly. ENT was concerned enough to send my child for a hearing test to make sure he's hearing fine and able to progress in his speech development. (luckily, by the time of hearing test the problem resolved by itself, Earcheck was showing green light "1" in both ears, and hearing test results were fine)
I recommend this device to any parent of infant/toddler.
UPDATE: A GREAT PRODUCT *AND* GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!
recently, after about 3 years my Earcheck stopped functioning. Let me just say - it got into the wrong hands. My boys love playing doctor with it, and they don't treat their toys gently... So i took a shot and contacted customer service to see if it could be repaired. The warranty was only for 1 year, and it had definitely been longer than that, so i didn't have much hope... They replied within hours, and told me to send the device to them along with the copy of receipt (which i found in my old e-mails - now i know why i never delete anything). A couple of weeks later i received a brand new EarCheck monitor! (wasn't even charged shipping)

Braun Thermoscan Ear Thermometer with 1-second readout Review

I bought this because my wife, a nurse, was tired of fussing with our 4 1/2 yr old and our oral thermometers, and wanted something closer to what she uses at work. Our daughter was on the verge of pneumonia, and we knew we would be tracking her temperature regularly for a couple of days, and wanted something to get it done quickly and accurately. This Braun Ear Thermometer does the trick. It's fast, accurate, easy to handle, and well made. Don't waste the extra $20-30 for the next model up in the Braun product line - paying for the "tip warmer" feature is pointless when the reading takes less than 3 seconds to perform. This is a real bargain, IMO.

Safety 1st Prograde Clear View Ear Scope Review

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.
