Littmann® CORE Digital Stethoscope - Black 8480

I gifted this stethoscope to my wife, and unfortunately, it hasn’t lived up to our expectations. The Littmann cover on the actual stethoscope came off within the first week of use, which was disappointing given the price and reputation of the product. She also had a difficult time connecting it to her iPhone, however the setup process was easy. While the sound quality may be good, the durability and connectivity issues took away from the overall experience. Looking back, I probably should have purchased the regular non-electronic version instead. For anyone considering this model, keep in mind that the added technology may not be as seamless as advertised plus the subscription that is required aswell.

I require hearing aides. Without them, this instrument brings back the joy of clear hearing heart sounds both normal and abnormal. It is a well crafted and beautiful instrument. I gifted one to my primary care physician and she, initially skeptical, loves it.

This was a Medical School graduation gift. She loves it and is very excited to use it in her upcoming residency!
