oogiebear Newborns Toddlers Aspirator Alternative Reviews Summary

Effectiveness

Pros:

• "This product got the boogers out in a couple of seconds..."
• "I freaking love this thing."
• "This is super convenient and it works!"
• "Highly recommend for newborns and their sensitive noses and my older kids think it's funny and great too."
• "It's so easy to use my son doesn't cry when I use it."
• "This works really well, but my baby hates when I use it."
• "I’ve gotten a few very hard tiny boogers that would have probably been pushed further down with a traditional booger bulb. 10/10 Recommend!"

Cons:

• "Not really for congestion or stuff further up the nose, since it doesn’t have any suction."
• "This really does not work that well."
• "The loops are a hard plastic and made babies nose bleed."
• "But, since it’s so small and made of plastic it’s easy to lose and frankly just ridiculously expensive in comparison to competitors."
• "The inserts for this device are not soft. They are hard plastic and will hurt the inside of the baby’s nose."
• "This would probably not work well for drainage."
• "The only problem I have found, is the rubber is actually pretty solid and hard and scratches the walls of the babies nose if you can’t quite get the booger out the first few tries."

Safety and Design

Pros:

• "With this my child doesn't move at all and the little bears prevent it from going to far."
• "The little bear ears prevent anything from going up too far, so for me I feel safe using it."
• "It is super safe with the bear heads stopping it from going too far."
• "The bear design keeps it from going in too far and my daughter likes to “help” me use it too."
• "The bears ears stop it which is so nice."
• "Don’t worry about it going too far up their nose, the little bear part stops it at the entrance of the nostril."
• "Little bear ears prevent you from going too far."

Cons:

• "I only wish that it was a tad longer to get the boogies that are a little deeper in."
• "The only problem is it’s pretty small (about the size of a q-tip), so I tend to misplace it easily."
• "I’m genuinely so confused as how this product has so many great reviews."
• "I like that it can't go to far into baby nose, but as a safety tool it doesn't do a great job..."
• "The tips are hard and don't go far enough to grab the boogers."
• "The little scoop isn't soft like I thought so I do stress a little when my son starts resisting, because I don't want to hurt him."
• "Only reason I can’t give it 5 stars is because it’s a little too small to get j to the nose all the way!"

Convenience and Ease of Use

Pros:

• "It is also compact and easy to store or take on the go."
• "It does double duty as a booger grabber and ear wax cleaner."
• "Can also be used in the ears to get and wax or debris."
• "It's great for boogers, snot AND cleaning ears."
• "Very easy to just rinse it off rather than having to clean out any tubes or worry about mold being inside if you didn’t get all the water out like with the suction bulbs."
• "This tool is so easy to use for scooping boogers or cleaning out baby's ears."
• "Super easy to clean and super easy to use!"

Cons:

• "It is not easy to clean at all, and it takes a bit clean out under running water, since the openings are so tiny, but so worth it."
• "This “tool” is you can even call it that is straight trash."
• "It was flimsy and awkward and I couldn’t get it to work at all."
• "Easy to lose though, such a small product it’s always hiding when you need it."
• "I’m genuinely so confused as how this product has so many great reviews."
• "This is a stupid product and I wish I hadn’t bought it."
• "The only improvement/suggestion I have is the scoop side, which is amazing, is difficult to get the baby boogies out of without getting a needle or Bobby pin or knife tip."
