These products work well, much better than the ones you will find in most class/clinical settings, and they are super cute. The pack that comes with them is very useful, and no one can walk off with your equipment since the colors are unique and noticable. I would recomend this to medical/nursing students, CNAs, and home healthcare workers.

The sphymomanometer works great. The acoustics of the stethoscope are also great. My only complaints are with the bulkiness of the dual tubes, and that the ear pieces are hard as rocks. If it had softer tips I'd bump the rating higher. For the price, I'd still recommend it.

I like this kit very much and my colleague are going to purchase it when they saw mine.

I was so excited to receive this product. My first impression of the stethoscope was that it was a bit heavy. It doesn't bother me though. The acoustics are excellent. I tried my mothers, my grandmothers, and even my dog's lung/heart sounds and they were as clear as day. However, after a few minutes I realized that the tubing was a MESS! They rub against each other and you can barely appreciate the clarity of the acoustics because of the rubbing. Also, the left tube slid off the head as if nothing. I was disappointed because if this happened while being home and only trying it one two people, imagine taking this thing to clinicals. How embarrassing for it to do something like that with a patient.

Next, I tried the cuff. It looks alright, though I had trouble with the bladder and gauge. It was SO hard to use that little gauge. It just doesn't seem very great. But it still does its job.

The penlight is reallllly nice. I really loved it.

It also comes with measuring tape and bandage scissors, which is really nice and important for clinicals.

The fanny pack is pretty cute and handy. Anyways, its a nice product but the stethoscope is rinky dink. I think I am going to return the product just because of that. Otherwise, its all awesome. Even the earbuds weren't a problem to me. Maybe its because I had big ears(?).

For the value. this cannot be beat. The set includes everything I needed for class...tape measure, pen light, cuff, and stethoscope. The fanny pack is something I don't ever plan on wearing, but is great to carry all the items with me to school...and I can fit some pocket references inside as well. Although not the best quality (and the fact I would prefer a single tube Littman type stethoscope) for the purposes I need them for at school, this set is more than sufficient!

On two occasions I ordered a purple fanny pack from Online Fitness. In both cases they kept me waiting over a week before cancelling both orders. It appears they take orders for merchandise they don't have, but hope to obtain. They failed to answer my emails or advise me as to my order status.

As far as I am concerned I will never do business with this company, Online Fitness, again.

I got this kit for $33. You can't beat that deal anywhere. Mine came with the bag, stethoscope, sphygmomanometer (including bulb and gauge), penlight, tape measure, bandage scissors, and extra plastic and rubber pieces for the stethoscope. The stethoscope is very sensitive. I could almost hear all 4 heart sounds on myself when I got it out and started playing with it. The 2 cords do tend to make some noise when you are moving the diaphragm around, but it sounds great as soon as you hold it still. The BP cuff appears to be of good quality though I haven't yet tried it. Overall extremely happy with my purchase.

It works good. It seems very acurate and you can hear clearly. And also has a very good price.
The only thing that I personally don't like, it's the double tube in the stethoscope. But that doesn't affect the sound, just make it a little bit harder to hadle.
Good price and good results. I recommend it.

This is a very good starter pack for anyone entering the health care field. But be aware that instructions are not included, but not a problem if you are taking classes. The bookstore was selling an equivalent package for over $50. I found this kit very easy to use and I have not found a significant reason to spend at least $50 for the litman stethiscopes.

The only other complaint is that the bladder in the BP cuff is a little hard to remove, therefore it can be a little timeconsuming to repeatedly remove the bladder to clean the cover.

A very good set for the money (1 replacement included), got this for my wife (she's the Doc). Although the pictured light pen is plastic, the one received was stainless steel.
