This is a great scope for the price, and much better than others costing more. It works as good as a Littmann at 1/3 the price. The additional earpieces are helpful, and the different colors are fun.

I've been a nurse for 7 years & had been using a Littman scope since I was in nursing school, then I discovered this scope! Wow! A fraction of the price of a Littman & exponentially better quality!

If you're looking for a great value in a stethoscope, then ADC scopes will more than fill the bill. You hear even the faintest sounds, especially with the stainless steel type scopes, and they don't disappear nearly as often as another famous name stethoscope.

I am in my senior year of Nursing School and I bought this stethoscope for my second semester of my junior year because the stethoscope our school gave us was horrible! This stethoscope works great and looks great as well! I researched many stethocopes before buying and I am very glad I picked this one!

I ordered the frosted lilac (which actually looks more pink than lilac)a few months ago right as I was coming to the end of nursing school. All throughout school I was wondering if I was going deaf because I purchased a cheesy little stethoscope from the bookstore at school (which they should not be allowed to sell!!). I couldn't hear anything when I tried to listen to lung sounds!! When I purchased this stethoscope I was amazed at the difference! I am working as a nurse now and have had only a few problems with it, but it's usually on elderly patients who don't quite understand that "I'm going to listen to your lungs" is not an invitation to start chatting! I gave it only 4 stars because while it works pretty well considering the low cost, I've noticed that I can hear a lot easier with some of my coworkers stethoscopes. I still don't think I can convince myself to buy a Littmann when this brand's prices are so much lower!

I have used many different stethescopes in 20 years as a paramedic this is as good as a littman but doesn't kill the pocketbook, good sound and the earpieces block out noise which is great when working out doors don't waste your money on the expensive brand

After struggling with blood pressures and breath sounds for several months, I finally decided to order my own stethoscope to see if it was me or the equipment I was using at school. It was the equipment. I did a little research (well, a lot of research) and decided to go with this one. It seemed like a nice one to start off on - great reviews, inexpensive, and a cool color. I purchased it thinking that it would be my first one, and I would get something more expensive later, but I'm prety sure I will keep it around for as long as I can and then get another one like it. Some of my classmates purchased Littmann brand, but when I told them how much mines cost and breezed through my check offs, they started looking up ADC for themselves. The sound quality is great the price is amazing, it's lightweight, and the color makes it stand out from the other stethoscopes in my class. Great product!!

This stethoscope is very comparable to my Littman Classic, which never turned back up after leaving it at the hospital one day. I can hear everything I need to with it. It is slightly longer than the Littman and about the same weight. This stethoscope is definitely a better bang for your buck.

This is a great stethoscope and I can hear very well on it maybe even better than the Littman I once owned but this is heavy. It says its light weight but its not. The first day that I took it to work all the nurses wanted to look at it and everyone said the exact same thing. So if you want a good stethoscope and don't care about its weight then this is perfect.

I just recently had to replace my last ADC ADSCOPE and it broke my heart, i had it for six years, had i not been leaving it out in my car in the arizona sun i doubt it would have met the end it did, because of the sun damage this winter the tubing froze and broke, (just dont hang any stethoscope in your car) i work as a paramedic and much prefer ADC over any other brand, i have gone threw a Littman or two and for the enviroment i work in the ADC was far superior for hearing over a diesel engine, i did use a littman on occasion when also working as a tech in the clinical setting, as its better in a "quieter" enviroment, but in the ride i had to pile linen under the arm to hear the bp and not just road/engine, and i just plain dont like the electronic ones, but hey when the poo hits the fan most people are happy to use what ever stethoscope is closest to them (even the $2 disposables lol), so really in the end it comes down to what you will be using it for and what you can afford. they all have their place, really i have been reading these reviews and i think sometimes its only the brand/price getting reviewed and not the actual product, if your looking for a affordable, reliable in any setting stethoscope in my opinion i highly recommend you try ADC
