 Doesn't replace bulb aspiratorJan 11, 2008
By Ray S
"Home theater enthusiast"
After using this for about 2 months on our now 6-month old, we are glad that we have this available to us, but the good old hospital bulb aspirator does a better job most of the time. This is because the bulb creates a short, high-velocity suction that causes the rush of air to pull along whatever is "down there" (or is it "up there"?), whereas the battery-operated unit has a constant, low-speed suction that only sucks in what the tip actually contacts.
There is at least one situation where this is an advantage - it worked much better than the bulb when she had a very runny nose due to a cold. In this case, the constant suction really kept pulling out more mucus, whereas the bulb could only suck a little each time.
So overall, we are happy to have another option, but it isn't usually the best tool for the job.

 Excellent as long as you know how best to use it!Aug 14, 2008
By Penny Matzelle

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.

 Musical Snot SuckerJul 05, 2007
By Teendoc

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.

Love it. Love it. Love it.Oct 24, 2007
By Shun C. Chu

This absolutely a great product. We've tried to stay on the "cheap" side by using the bulb every time our son gets sick. And every time I wonder why I didn't get this product as he screams and kicks when we try to use the bulb on him -- It's slow, not as effective and he hates it. Finally I broke down and bought BébéSounds Nasal Clear. Oh boy, what a difference this product has made in just the 1st day of use. It got SO MUCH out in a fraction of the time compared to the bulb!
At first I thought the music feature was such a waste of battery and a superfluous feature. But NOOOOOO... our 2-year-old would only let me suction his nose if the music was playing. We've even made a pact where I'd like him press the music button if he lets me do the suction for the duration of the music... Cool!
I am not sure why the other reviewer had a hard time getting anything out of his/her infant. But do keep in mind that for best results, the other nasal cavity plus the mouth would have to be temporarily closed for optimal effect. Just imagine how we blow our nose -- it's just not practical if you try to blow your nose while you're still breathing through your mouth! We taught our son to say "mmmmm" while we quickly apply the BébéSounds Nasal Clear on him and repeat it until we thought we got as much as we could.
If you are still sitting on the sidelines waiting to get this, don't wait -- get it. It will save you time and hassle. And it will also make your infant/toddler happier without having to go through the ineffectiveness of the bulb...

Great!Apr 14, 2007
By Susanne R. Dufek
both my 4 year old and my little daughter 5 month old hate having their noses suctioned! My little girl has reflux and spits up a lot, due to that she always has quite some Milkbuggers up her nose and to add to that, she's teething like a Mammoth right now which makes her congested as well. First she wanted to sqirm away, but the hummingsound that comes from it and the nice Tune it plays destracted her! Since it vibrates quite a bit I first touch her cheek with it so she knows what to expect and she immidetly calmes down and today started even to giggle because it tickled her nose!
The long and short tip are both very soft and have no sharp edges and the suction is very gentle. Yes, I do agree that it won't suck crusties out of the nose but even with a bulb, hard stuff should be soaked for a couple of seconds with a squirt of saline up the nose to soften it. Once you do that the bigger buggers will come out with the big tip!
I personally find the Bulbs to invasive and the aspirators in Hospital pretty strong, so strong that not even the stuff will use them unless the Babys oxygen drops due to stuffiness in the nose! I KNOW I just spent 1 week in the hospital in February with my duaghter due to RSV, and yes those aspirators there shouldn't be used unless there is no other way (but even there they use always saline first to soften the stuff and then use the suction)
Oh, by the way, the Aspirator comes with a handy little sack to store the tips and the easy to take apart and clean Aspirator! sure, the Suction is not as strong as the Hospital one but the Hospital cannot be used as often as you want to, this one is gentle enough and even fun for the little ones while giving them relieve and can be used as needed it is that gentle! That's why it gets 5 stars from me!
