What it does

A battery powered nasal aspirator for babies and toddlers with two suction levels, two soft nose tip sizes and a removable collection cup.

  • Separate buttons for high and low suction, with quick shut off
  • Two tip sizes for different nostril sizes
  • Shaped to be held and used from different angles
  • Nozzle twists off and the tip separates from the cup for washing

A simple electric aspirator for parents who want push button suction and dishwasher safe parts. The trade-off is that the suction is gentle, so thick mucus can take more than one try, and it is bulkier and costs more than a manual aspirator.
