• Fits Perfectly

  The soft spiral head goes the perfect distance into the ear canal. With a simple twist it safely removes wax.

• Online Deal

  The online special gives you the first handle with sixteen tips for twenty dollars plus free shipping. A second handle with sixteen tips is then included for another ten dollars.

Cons

• No Credentials for Doctor

  The site uses a “Dr. Adam S. Rosoff” as their official medical representation. However, the only data available on the alleged doctor is a set of medical listings for chiropractors. Even if one of those are this doctor, the field of chiropractic care is not related to ear cleaning. .

• Expensive

  When you place your order, you get the handle on top of which the small swabs are placed. For each order, you pay for this handle and for sixteen of the attachable tips which are one time use. They are meant to be thrown out after use, so it stands to reason that you would need to resupply after just two weeks or so of use.

• Shipping

  For those who are shipping outside of the mainland United States, another ten dollars is added to the shipping. Anyone who is placing their order in New Jersey or California have to face state sales taxes.

How It Works

Too much wax or water can impair hearing or cause infections. Yet cleaning with swabs is painful and going to the doctor is expensive. Cotton swabs go too far and cause pain for many users. The majority of ear wax build up and issues arise from people using traditional swabs which push the ear wax deeper into the ear, causing pain and pressure against the ear canal. So with this product, there is a special design to the tips that curves naturally against the cylindrical ear canal. Such curves allow the soft tips to naturally scrap against the interior walls of the canal so that most of the wax that would otherwise be pushed back can be scooped up, essentially. Once it is scooped up, it can be removed easily from the ear canal and the tip replaced.

How to Use (Step by Step)

1. Stick

   Stick the tip in your ear.

2. Twist

   Twist the handle around until the tip has made a full circle inside of the ear canal. .

3. Remove

   Remove the ear wax.

4. Replace

   Toss out the used tip and replace it with a clean one.

Alternatives

• Q-tips

  Most people use cotton swabs or the brand Q-Tips, even though it states on the box not to insert into the ear canal and that doing so can cause injury. These are incredibly cheap and can be used for many other things in addition to ear use. They can be wet down if necessary, and used to remove wax.
