Review (5/5): Good quality, good price, very effective (pleasantly surprised)
Bare-bones, just the tools and a case, but the tools are of pretty good quality (I was pleasantly surprised). The sparse packaging is typical of stuff from Asia (just a guess), but you also get the lower price that comes with that. I prefer it that way (less stuff in the landfill).
If you're expecting a manual with it, then this product is probably not for you, safety-wise, and I mean that most respectfully. I guess it might say "Insert in ear, please be super careful". This is the kind of thing they usually don't sell in the US (at least from a big company) due to liability. Especially with the ear, the rule is "Only let a doctor do it" (like it is for so many things). Let me tell you, the doctors I've seen don't want to do it either (would you?). They give you the 'yuk, that's beneath me' look and refer you to earwax drops (which never worked for us). I guess what I mean is that if you're looking at buying this, you've probably tried to clean your ear with other (usually unsuitable) objects (Q-tips, etc) without much success, so you have some experience on what's safe to do and how you might use this. Again, you have to be super careful.
Now my short experience with this is to clean out the wax of another (elderly) person, not my own. I don't need it (yet), tho I suspect it's much more effective when you can see what you're doing, which you cant on yourself. Also, I think by restricting your cleaning to what you can see, you're less likely to go too deep (like you might on yourself). It works really well on dry, flaky wax. On more wet, viscous wax, I cant say. Compared to what I've used before, it's no contest. I'm really happy with it. So much more wax than I've been able to get out before.
There are three tools, each with its own usefulness that is apparent or you can figure out as you go. One is for (dull) scraping (looks like a round paw), one is for twisting/catching loose stuff (bulb-shaped spring), and one seems like a combo of both (looks like a mace w/three ridges). The last one has edges that are a little sharp, which you might need (use gently), but can be painful on the delicate skin of the inner ear. I've seen bleeding from using a Q-tip too much, so be careful.
I would clean these after every use. I use isopropyl alcohol (cheap from walmart).
The plastic case is plain and flimsy, like a throwaway case, but is actually very useful (so don't toss it). You need something to hold the tools, and it's just the right size and transparent too. I need to get better at opening it (press down where the single retaining tab is). There's plenty of places for air to get in to allow the tools to dry. Convenient.
