Primacare DL-4112 Mini Diagnostic Otoscope Kit with High Resolution LED Ear Light, Full Spectrum Medical LED Pocket Clip Otoscope for Nurse, Student, Doctors EMT, 3 Sized Speculas

Good

As many other satisfied customers have said about this little Otoscope, it does it's job. Yes it is extremely cheaply made ie. think of a toy set of binoculars, maybe a bit harsh, but I think about right in fairness & yes it does do the job. That being the important bit. If like me you just need a cheap handy method to look down a loved ones ears to check on the wax situation once in a long while & then carefully put the gizmo back in its cardboard box (taking the batteries out first to stave off trouble) & putting it safely away in a wardrobe away from unwanted attention.. Then this is just fine, no problem, I've no doubt it'll be around for many years to come. I don't think it's designed to be taken out & about & given a regular good using, well not for long anyway. It's about the same size, maybe a bit bigger, than a top-pocket type torch & comes with three extra ears pieces that vary in diameter at the business end to accommodate different sized ear canals. It uses a basic led bulb, which is just about bright enough, & two AAA batteries that come with it. An upgrade with really decent batteries is worth doing straight away. The magnifying lens is just about up to task, again I think of those binoculars maybe. Overall the bottom line is simple, as far as I can make out having searched around & I could be wrong, priced at about £15 I suspect much more money altogether would need to be spent out to get hold of something in a different category. & Of course, what we really want is one from that different category but why spend the money considering they'll both spend 95+% of their time in the wardrobe. At this sort of price level to get something at all that will do a reasonable job is an achievement in itself.. Thank you.

This otoscope comes with four reusable speculums. As you would expect from the price it feels very light and cheap. Surprisingly, the power button must be held down in order to provide light - this is because the otoscope is effectively a viewing attachment for a pen-torch. This makes the device slightly awkward to hold properly. Despite this, we were able to get decent views of the ear canal and tympanic membrane for OSCE practice.

Very difficult to see anything . Not fit for purpose. Would not recommend

Value for the money you pay, good light that gives a clear image of the ear canal able to view the tympanic membrane easily, I have used better quality however there like 15 times the cost and this is perfect to use at home to keep an eye on child’s wax build up and ear infections. Would buy again

Works well

Could see right into cats ear canal

This otoscope is really easy to use and such a useful tool in our house with a son who has glue ear and prone to ear infections. It means I can keep an eye on what is going on in his ears without having to wait til we can get to the doctors. I recommend looking online how to interpret what you see as you need to know what variations you may see on the spectrum of normal to abnormal. You should also test it out on lots of people's ears so that again you can get used to the different things you can see.

Les fabricant ont une bien étrange définition de la notion « incluses ». Il y a bien l’emplacement des piles dans la boîte mais surprise.... l’emplacement est vide... je n’ai pour le moment pas encore essayé l’objet n’ayant pas prévu d’acheter des piles... je le ferai prochainement.

I would suggest this to ALL PARENTS IN THE WORLD (caps were needed here). It is ridiculous the amount of time I lost going to the doctor with a kid thinking he might have an ear infection but it wasn't. But no more! I'm not thinking I'm a doctor but you know, use judgement. If the kid is just midly sick and eardrum looks good than wait one more day. I bought it in the first place because my son had earwax blockage in hos ears and the nurses couldn't get rid of it. Some places refused to even try because they said he was too young. Anyways. That helped me see in his ear and unclog the ear myself with warm waternin a seringe (and cerumol just in case someone has the same issue). Anyways. Because of this, I discovered that my daughter also had a clogged ear! I would have never known otherwise. So yeah. Best 8$ spent of my life. Update: I keep losing it and buying it again. Love it.

Es un otoscopio muy sencillo, pero que hace su labor perfectamente y a muy buen precio. Muy recomendable. Además me llegó en 48 horas.

Not super bright but works for simple home ear care. My daughter had earwax impacted and this is perfect for keeping an eye on that. It's been a great addition to our first aid kit. Definitely recommend.

Dieses Otoskop ist relativ schlecht verarbeitet. Ich würde es nicht nocheinmal kaufen.
