User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Excellent Stethoscope
Excellent stethoscope. I have owned several.
Don’t bother with the engraved ID tags which you have to buy then pay to send back to have engraved (can’t be done anywhere else). I have paid and utilized this service twice and never received the engraved tags. Just get the stethoscope and put your ID on it some other way.
5 Stars Wonderful Stethoscope
I am a nursing student, with a lot of nurses in my family. All of them gave me stethoscopes. I struggled to hear until I bought this one for myself. Now I hear heart murmurs that get by the docs.
5 Stars Littmann 2161
awesome stethoscope…great at picking up heart and breath sounds….pick it over the classic any day!
5 Stars Fantastic product, but has a specific market
The Littmann 2161 is an excellent stethoscope. Heart tones are clear and well-defined, pulmonary sounds come through clearly. I especially like the tunable diaphragm, which allows you to hear throughout the range of frequencies.
Many practitioners and technicians will find this stethoscope to be overkill for their scope of practice. I recommend this scope for practitioners, and for technicians who regularly make independent decisions and interventions for patients suffering from severe trauma or cardiopulmonary compromise. This is not designed to be a BP scope. If BP is the only skill you use a stethoscope for, then don’t buy this scope.
5 Stars You just can’t beat a Littman for quality sound & the cardiology is even better!
This is my 6th stethoscope, with only one not being a littmann. I don’t know how anyone can truly hear breath sounds or heart tones at an adequate level with the cheaper stethoscopes out there. I’ve tried those of my friends and there is a significant difference in the volume, quality and tone of what you can hear.
I have the neo, pedi, standard adult with bell, “cheapie” version littmann adult w/o bell and now this cardiology littmann scope. I can honestly say I do hear heart tones significantly better with this than with my other adult stethoscopes. It’s worth the investment!
