Nosiboo Pro Nasal Aspirator

Wow! Just wow! I'm a first time mum and my 9 week old baby boy has had the sniffles the past couple of weeks. My usually really happy little boy, who had just learned to laugh and smile for real (not wind!), was crying constantly and couldn't breathe. All I could hear was his snotty nose flapping around and I tried everything... Snuffle babe - useless. It felt like my lungs would explode and unless the snot was right at the front it wouldn't touch it. But the baby hated it and in the end even the sight of it would make him freak out. Cotton buds - they're ok if the little buggers are at the front of the nostril... Although if they are like that I can get with my fingernails! My own mouth - this was the most successful but it was gross! And not even that successful... I would end up with a sweet but salty snot ball in my mouth and a super screaming baby, which would actually make him more snotty anyway so it was counterproductive! I wouldn't like having a huge mouth coming towards me and sucking my nose either to be fair - especially if it barely dislodged anything unless it was already loose and on its way out on its own. Nasal bulb - just don't. Absolutely rubbish! Almost comical! Saline spray - this helped the other things not be quite so useless. It obviously worked a bit because he seems to quite like it. I think it probably breaks the snot up and makes it runnier; making it run down the back of his throat or out his nostrils. Of course it wouldn't make it all come out the right direction but I could, using one of the other useless tools listed above, get a grip of a little bit more after using this first. My baby and I are going away with my parents tomorrow morning and will be flying. I didn't want him getting even more congested and miserable on the flight and I was worried about his little ears! So I thought "sod it" and yesterday morning paid for the the super expensive nosiboo AND for it to be fast delivered the same day. It arrived early evening after another day struggling to keep him happy. I used it straight away and wow. Just a WOW! My baby can breathe! I've never seen so much snot either... The thing filled up. His face was a picture too - he didn't like it at first and I could tell he thought it was just another useless thing I was sticking up his nose that wouldn't work. Just as he was about to cry, he stopped. Breathed a bit and then laughed! I don't tested the suction on me and I thought it was going to pull my brains out it was so strong! I love it! He slept the whole night (slept right through from 9pm until 7am - and for a breastfed baby that's huge!) which means he obviously was very tired and hadn't slept well in days. And when I went to use it this morning he just let me spray the saline and then sat there with a bemused smile while I used the nosiboo to suck away! Again, absolutely LOADS of snot came out. It just kept coming and coming. I can't hear any snot in his sinuses at the moment so it's worked and gives us a few hours of peace :) I love this thing! I can't wait to show my mum when she comes round to see him later - she has been so worried and been helping me try and get him better. It's quite heavy and larger than I thought it would be so it will have to come in my hand luggage with me as I already have loads of main luggage. Babies have lots of luggage! But I don't care - I am not going away for a month without this amazing machine! I want a blocked nose too so I can use it! Wow. Best thing I could have ever bought for the baby. Worth every penny - and it's a lot of pennies but it is so worth it!

Honestly I can’t rate this enough! I know the pictures are gross but this is what flew out of my 20 month olds nose on the first go and it didn’t even look that bad in his nose. You can put it to adjustable strength, it has a min-max dial. It is loud, like a vacuum cleaner and I won’t lie my autistic son went ballistic but he does for everything. That’s a daily occurrence just to brush his teeth or clean him so it may not be the case for everyone. BUT wow does it work. I didn’t even have to touch his nostril. I just placed it above his lip and everything came flying out, it’s really fast and strong. It doesn’t feel like it will be strong when you first turn it on and touch it against your face but it is. My son has had this head cold for over 2 months and I’m kicking myself for not buying this sooner. Would a cheaper one suffice? I don’t know, this is the first one I’ve tried. My son has medical issues that mean we have to be really careful about germs in his nose or things going too deep so I didn’t want to have to put anything too far inside so went straight to the best model I could find. And I’m so glad I did because it gets the job done in one second flat.

Damn, this hoover is amazing... it makes it so much easier to clean my son's nose... even the nasty sticky kind of mucus comes out... it really worth it's current price 👍

Worked well (even if it frightened kids) However it broke down soon after the end of the warranty (if 24 months), with no use for a good 12 months in the middle (#2 no longer needed it and #3 only arrived 12 months later). Basically stops as soon as started. Useless and it's a real shame given the price tag.

A relatively good product especially for babies but definitely not worth the cost. Use it on my 3 year old and she still needs to blow her nose after. Far too expensive.

Hi, My Nosiboo nasal care system has broken, rather alarmingly the off button has stopped working ans the system can not be turned off. I believe I can not return it but would like to know if it can be repaired as it is clearly dangerous and not fit for use. We have had it for 3 months and have been very happy until now. Thanks Andrew

One of the best baby products. We bought this product as our daughter frequently suffered from secondary infections - whenever she had a relatively mild cold it developed into a chest infection as she was too small to blow her nose and had to take antibiotics. Since we bought this product she has not had any chest infections and recovery time from a cold has significantly reduced. Amazingly she does not fight it and actually asks for the nosiboo whenever she has a runny nose. We find it incredible how much snot comes out with this product. She is always very proud to see the result and takes it to the bathroom to clean (it is so simple that a toddler can actually do it). We also used it with our second baby. Unfortunately she had an infection at a few weeks old and could not breathe well (therefore could not sleep..) and the Nosiboo was a godsend! This is a must in every household with babies/small children and would make an excellent baby shower gift.

Better than other hand held devices which aren't strong enough. This is probably the closest thing to a vacuum cleaner for the nose. Power plug falls out far too easily. Be better if it was half the price
