Highlights
Quality
I can highly recommend this quality, easy to use tool.
This otoscope is very simple to use & works great!
This is not a professional model with a high quality lens, and would not be durable enough for all day, every day use.
We lubed the ear up with debris, and quickly and easily scooped it out with a curette.
Price
This was a great find for the price.
For the price point this otoscope is amazing.
At $30 co-pay for each child, plus insurance doesn't cover 100% of the visits.
I don't like going to the doctor and avoid becoming a patient at all costs.
Shipping
Product came packaged well and on time.
This otoscope arrived on a friday afternoon.
Two day shipping with amazon prime later, this little gem arrived.
Packaging/appearance

I checked his left ear & sure enough it was very red like the example shown on the back of the otoscope package.
Competitiveness
Very good price compared to other brands on amazon.

I purchased this otoscope after i bought a few more expensive ones that connect to your cell phone and returned them.
I purchased this after reading some of the great reviews it got compared to the other low-cost otoscopes available for home use.
