Clinere Ear Cleaner Earwax Remover Reusable Tool with Comfort Guide, Narrow Ear Scoop for Safely & Gently Cleaning Ear Canal at Home, Earwax Removal Cleaning Tool, Itchy Ears, Ear Wax Buildup, 1ct

I wasn't sure if buying this as opposed to the disposable Clinere cleaners was the best decision. I knew I wanted to go with Clinere because I had tried their disposable cleaners before, and they worked very well for me (I have very waxy ears), but I didn't like the idea of having to keep getting disposable ones. This seemed sort of expensive for just one plastic ear cleaner, but I think it will ultimately save me money. It's lasted a few months now and I don't think it will have reason to break anytime soon.I don't like the shape quite as much as the disposable ones (it's narrower and a bit pointier, so you have to be extra careful), and it doesn't have the fins that those do, either, but it still works to clean out earwax. I've also still got a bottle of the ear oil from when I got the disposable ones, and I've found that pairing that with this cleaner works better for me than just using it without oil. But it works without the oil, too.Fairly easy to clean--I've followed the instructions and just use a soft toothbrush and soap followed by rubbing alcohol. But it is sort of tedious, and sometimes I forget or don't feel like going to get all that stuff if I forgot to bring it with me.

very nice

This product seems dangerous. I bought it because of the safety guard and because it was supposedly reusable. But on the second use the handle snapped right behind the guard. I kept the little gaurd and scoop and tried to continue to use this since it wasn’t cheap and was something I needed. After a few more uses the scoop broke in my ear! This product is trash and not safe in my opinion. Possibly their disposable versions are better but this one is TERRIBLE.

Until it snapped in half during use. It felt safe with the soft plastic and perfect for use after a shower. I recommend!

I can get a very similar, if not identical product at Walgreens for less than half the price.This is just a stamped piece of plastic. Amazone sold it at a much lower price before they started stocking the Cliniere brand.

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 onesThe 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.

Due to the shape of the part that collects the ear wax, it is difficult to completely clean out (as opposed to a ring that goes all the way through). The plastic bends out of shape fairly easily and the tip might be a little to pointy for some.

I (and my children) have very small, very narrow ear canals. As a result, they don't drain well. They tend to get wax buildup that can cause us to wake up unable to hear at all in one ear! I used to have to go to the doctor's office all the time to get my ears flushed, and my son was in the same boat. The doctor suggested using those ear wax drops from the drugstore as a preventative measure to help keep the wax thinned out. We do that when it starts to build up, and it helps, but if it's already quite clogged, we need emergency help, more than the drops can provide. So we each tried this tool, and it works great! It can remove great big plugs of hard earwax with ease. The safety ring around the top prevents you from putting the probe in too far where you could cause damage to your eardrum, which is very important. I can't be without this wonderful tool...and I no longer have to rely on my doctor to bail me out!
