"Could be more flexible and the rip should be rounded a bit more I think. It does the job for sure. Also, the handle should be longer for ease of use. I kinda hurt my ear a bit somehow the first time I used it. I had one like this but I lost it. It was more flexible and the handle was longer so it was easier to use. Also, the tip was rounded more and was more comfortable to use. Just be careful when using and u will be fine."

"My husband tried it but the safety shield prevented it from reaching the wax"

"These are very similar to the orotek blue ones but they dont break as easily and they also reach a bit further. I had wax that just wasnt coming out no matter what I did and I had been using the orotek ones. When I switched to this one, I started getting the wax out because it was just beyond the reach of the other ones
The best way to get to the wax, is to put it in as far as possible, and then go straight up with it, up and out.

Then go straight in and back towards your outer ear, then out.

I had been getting my ears clogged for 6 months at a time where I couldnt hear. Once I unclogged them, this is the product thats been preventing it from happening again.

Also another tip, is to take a cotton ball saturated with hydrogen peroxide and tilt your head so your ears pointing upwards. Drop 2 drops into the ear. Wait 7 seconds, plug the ear with dry cotton and turn your head the other way so it drains out. Then take this tool and you will be pulling out foamy wax that seemed like it wasnt there when you used it dry.

A lot of people (myself included) will use peroxide and let it sit in the ear for a few minutes with the head tilted or upwards laying down. Dont do this! Thats a good way to clog your ears for months. the reason is, that wax is created just inside the ear hole. Its supposed to drain out of your ear.

But some people get a buildup just inside that hole. The worst thing you can do is use a q tip because that pushes the wax into the ear canal. But laying down with peroxide will start dissolving wax but because your on your side, it all starts draining down onto the eardrum, instead of outwards.

Youll end up with a melted candle covering your eardrum and once that happens, your pretty much deaf and its almost impossible to remove it. I finally did with warm water/peroxide and an ear bulb but it took a couple hundred squeezes.

I dont recommend doing that. Just go to the Dr if it doesnt rinse out after a few tries. But then once your all clear, the method I detailed above really does work to keep the ears from getting clogged again."
