Great quality
I was tired of worrying about my brand name stethoscope getting stolen at work. This is a quality stethoscope at a reasonable price.

Goodbye Littmann
My wife and I have been nurses for over 25 years. We serve as home care nurses that specialize in cardiology education and high risk re-hospitalizations - needless to say, our stethoscopes are used all day, every day. Are go to used to be Littmann like every other nurse on the planet however, when you replace these every couple of years, that starts to add up. We tried ADC and a few other brands however they quickly broke or the finish broke down after we put them through there paces. We bought two of these figuring that the price was good and they looked as though they had a decent build. So, after both of us running them through the days we found that 1. They are sensitive! In fact the acoustics were phenomenal. Both the design of the bell coupled with the better insulated tubing forced us to back up on the pressure used with lung sounds and cardiac rhythm. The weight of the scope is a big factor for me, I personally cant stand cheap plastic scopes but that was not the case here - solid and sturdy all the way! The finish on the scope brought some attention from some doctors who requested to try them and they too were impressed. A few even asked if we could send the link so they could furnish there staff with them. Honestly, I'm starting to wish I made commission on them! Easy sale, hands down!The added pen light was also very nice but not a determination in our purchase. Packaging was also very nice and professional and it was extremely appreciated that a variety of ear buds were provided as they were all comfortable and sealed out noise very nicely.

Good value
After 40 years my Littman gave in to metal fatigue, so I needed a new one, but I only had a year left in my medical career, so I bought one of these (less than half the price of a Littman). I think the acoustics are great. I have compared it with more expensive stethoscopes and can find no difference in sound quality.

Adequate
Ok. Scope is adequate, but very stiff. I bought this when my Littman was misplaced.It does the job. Has a professional, expensive look.

Great sound quality for the price!
My wife and I are both NP students and my wife has a Littmann master cardiology. I decided to give this a try before I bought one like hers because it looked like it had the same design. It arrived today and I must say that it surpassed my expectations. Holding it up next to the Littmann they are very similar tubing diameter is the same, length is the same, and chest piece is the same. I listened to heart sounds with this and my wife's and the sound quality was not far off. I must say that the Littmann did have better sound, but this was close and more then adequate. Not to mention the fact that I can buy 6 of these for the price of one Littmann. I highly recommend this product, in a direct comparison to the standard (Littmann) it was not that far off. I was able to hear all of the heart sounds that I could hear with the Littmann.
