User questions & answers

Question:	Is the picture true to color
Answer:	I would say, yes it is, because I purchased the blue one and it looks exactly like the picture.
Question:	Any DREs out there using this set? I'm replacing the set I was issued in DRE school (12'). I want something of higher quality, w/out breaking the bank
Answer:	NO idea what DRE is. Purchased this item for my daughter. She's completed her CNA and is at the tail end of EMT program. She uses the set everyday multiple times, so it gets packed and unpacked over and over, plus the travel back and forth home to school to clinic rinse and repeat etc. To date there is no visible wear and tear but most important they work exactly as they should. I expect the set to last her as long as she needs. She will likely replace it just for a change of color and not due to a defect.
Question:	Can I wash the cuff easily? If so, what's the best way to wash it
Answer:	Washing it will damage the cuff. The best you can do is get a damp (but not soaked) cloth and wipe it down. If it becomes really dirty such that using a damp cloth doesn't do the trick, it's time to get a new cuff.
Question:	Does the needle gauge pulsate
Answer:	The needle does not pulsate.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is it long enough to wear around your neck
Answer:	Just long enough
Question:	Is this stethoscope all black? it looks like it may have a little silver? Also what are the dimensions of the bell
Answer:	Yes it is black, but it turns quickly and falls apart. I am not sure on dimensions, but it is not good in quality. Hope this helps.
Question:	We can hear the "scratchy" sound when we touch the end. However, when we hold it to the chest area, we hear NOTHING. Help please
Answer:	Hi, I don't have a good answer for you. We have "played" with ours a little and cannot hear much. When i flipped the ear pieces around, so that they sat differenly in my ears, it helped a bit.I am planning to have a RN friend of mine teach me how to use it properly. As they say:I need medical attention to use it right!
Question:	does this have a noise reduction feature
Answer:	No it doesn't, but it picks up heart and lung sounds well. I'm an ER nurse and it works great even for pediatric sounds. The pink is very bright, easily spotted and well admired by most people.

User questions & answers

Question:	Isn't the "black edition" supposed to be like black matte finish? on the earpieces & bell. When I click black it looks more like the smoke finish
Answer:	Hi. The bell does not have a matte black finish. The olives and diaphragm are finished in matte black. I just bought it 15 days ago. I'm happy with the finish of the stethoscope. It depends on the tastes of each one. Regards
Question:	Is there a warranty
Answer:	yes, it has 5 years warranty
Question:	Is this good for a new nursing student BSN
Answer:	It's better than good, it's ideal for all your professional career...
Question:	I will be an emt student soon, would this stethoscope be sufficient? Or is it overkill. Suggestions are appreciated
Answer:	Former EMT, currently in med school: This is absolute overkill for EMT (if they don't have steths on your rig, get something in the $15-30 range). This is perfectly fine for med school (it's what almost everyone in my class has).

User questions & answers

Question:	Did yours come with the box wrapped in plastic? Mine came with the box partly opened, I thought there would a protective covering around the plastic
Answer:	Mine came in the box with a 1" plastic band around the box, not all that secure of packaging. When I called Littmann, the operator didn't know what the packaging entailed. But she did say that what I purchase off of Amazon is a third party purchase, so she has no way of knowing anything about the actual product I purchased. Then I called a local distributor and talked to them. I told him I purchased one and that it had the band around the box, but that the item did not have a plastic bag around it or any other packaging. He said it does not come wrapped inside the box, that it sits on a thin piece of black foam, and that's it. That's exactly how mine was packaged. His price is $24 higher than the Amazon price. And honestly, even if I bought it from him, I still wouldn't know if someone had previously purchased it and returned it anyway. I can't tell you how many times I've purchased items in stores to later discover that it had been used and returned. UGH! The bigger issue is it a counterfeit item. I would have no way of knowing authenticity unless I purchased it directly from the manufacturer. Next best thing would be an authorized distributor. I purchased this for home use, so I'm not going to worry about it too much. But, if I were a medical student, I'd be purchasing from an authorized distributor.
Question:	is this good for listening to lung sounds on pediatric patients
Answer:	I can't say whether it's good for peds but I find it very good and was recommended this one my a 20 year peds vet.
Question:	Can this be used in pediatrics? Or is better to buy the classic
Answer:	The lightweight CAN be used in pediatrics but it's better to buy the classic simply because it has better acoustic performance. Here's a link to a comparison chart. http://www.allheart.com/m/littmann/a/littmann-stethoscope-comparison/Hope this helps!
Question:	Only if you know... Other than price, this must lack features or the quality of higher priced ones
Answer:	I like this stethoscope. Anything you get with the littman name will be high quality, the difference from the higher priced models is that this is not cardiac specific. It is a general stethoscope. There is no loss of sound identification. You can still hear s1-s2, lung sounds, bruits, murmurs, bowel sounds, and the like.
