I purchased this stethoscope to amplify breath sounds, it amplifies ambient noise instead. I did a side by side comparison with my current stethoscope (Littman Cardiology III) and the only difference was the amplified ambient noise and the uncomfortable ear tips. My ears hurt after 20 seconds of wearing this stethoscope. Breath sounds sound the same with either stethoscope.

• How did the image on site compare with the actual product? It did not amplify breath sounds.
• How accurate was the on site description of the product? Inaccurate.
• Please tell us about the quality of the product. The battery compartment did not want to close easily.

Bought as a gift to some people who needed one. They liked it a lot and they are glad to have it.

Works Great! Recently lost 30% hearing in rt ear. This lets me hear patient's heart beat and lung sounds clearly. Am trying to get use to switching between heart and lungs settings.

Overall this product is good, I have a little trouble changing from bell to diaphragm to Wide. The control button does not work effectively. But, the accoustics are great. It is lightweight.

This stethoscope is great! The price was excellent (on sale ) and the shipping was free at the time I purchased this. Easy to use. Comfortable ear pieces. Work on a busy noisy unit and this stehoscope has excellent capabilities. I am able to hear things now that I normally would not be able to auscultate. Makes my job easier and feel more confident with my assessment skills. Thank Overstock

Don't know about durability -haven't had it long but great tool for me as EMS with poor hearing and even for my partners in loud situations and when rolling down the road in a noisy ambulance. Easy to use. Big hit hear in Telluride

I brought this Stethescope for a friend, who is hearing impaired. She has just begun nursing school and her one stress was not have perfect hearing. She is more confident and has a better confidence. The stehescope is easy to use and lightweight. We would recommend it .

I love it when it works. There seems to be a problem with the battery staying connected. When I move the battery it will work.

i don't know how much stethoscopes normally go for but i felt like this one was a little pricey. I got it as a bday gift for my sister who's a resident doctor and she absolutely loved it.

I have mild hearing loss and a regular Stethoscope works okay for me but it has to be in a non-noisey area. So, I decided to try and look for an Electronic Stethocope for my EMT Class and for when I BP's now as a First Responder. These are GREAT. When I first started looking around and saw the prices on these I almost said forget it, then say something one day that Overstock.com had these for around $171 and said that's a great deal. it's either going to be the BEST deal or I'm stuck with them. Turned out to be a really good deal. Thou, it does pick up even the SLIGHTEST movement of your hand so you have to be real steady with it, but it's great for Pulse, Heart, and Lung Sounds. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

I enjoy using the stethoscope. There seem to be quite a bit of ambient noise when using the scope. I find the tubing a bit too long. I would be nice if it automatically turned on when the diaphragm touches the chest. Overall I like it and would recommend it. I have had it for less than a month, therefore, I cannot comment on durability.

I love my new eletronic stethascope it makes my job much easier now!!!!!!I can hear Heart and Lung sounds in the back of the ambulance even with the siren on!!! I have let several of my colleges use it too . They absolutely love it.
