Customer Reviews

Just right for this family of nurses...
This is a good all-around stethescope for nursing use. It's lightweight, has comfortable earpieces, and the sound is clear and easy to hear. Cheaper scopes are certainly available, but you'll be using this for years -- and this one certainly holds up for years...my sister has been using hers since 1986.

I bought my Littman Classic II on my sister's advice (yep, also a nurse) when I started nursing school clinicals in 1999 -- it was so much lighter than the Sprague I'd been using...and frankly, anything that saved me a little stress during the ordeal of nursing school was well worth it.

When my daughter started nursing school last fall, and complained to me that she was having trouble hearing BPs and lung sounds with the school supplied scopes, I bought this same scope for her. She LOVES it and her fellow students are envious.

My brother will be starting nursing school next year, and I think this will make a marvelous gift for him as well.

Good durable stethoscope
Like I said in the title this is a good durable stethoscope. It was the recommended one for nursing school when I started back in 1998 and I have had the same one since. It has worked well for me through school, working in several different units, and even survived the heat and humidity well when I took it to Indonesia three times. It has good acoustic quality.

great classic stethoscope durable, good price
I have used this model for over 15 years. I think its durable and comfortable to use. My son is in medical school and I bought this as a gift for him. I was suprised to see it so heavily discounted on Amazon. Great price, 1/2 what I would be paying my medical supply person.
