So I really love my Eko 500, I've had it for just over a year. The noise cancellation is great and you can grab a baseline ECG on someone with an irregular rate or rhythm to do a baseline check before ordering up a 12 lead ECG in the office. Its also great for babies who are maybe being a bit vocal at their office visit as you can clearly auscultate through the cries. With mine, a piece within the head of the stethoscope came loose and has been rattling around in the top of the stethoscope. I submitted a warranty claim even though it was over a year, and they are sending me a brand new stethoscope. This is how companies keep people coming back, through great customer service and caring about the products they sell. I would recommend buying a silicone head cover like you would for your phone just for some added protection. Overall a great stethoscope and great company who actually back up their products which is hard to find these days.

I didn't want to love this pricey stethoscope, but I do. I have caught so much with this. I can hear breath sounds when someone can't follow directions to take that deep breath. Blood pressures accurate every time, and the noise cancelling with the amplification makes it so much easier for my 51 year old concert going damaged hearing. My CEU allowance paid for it. And, my husband bought one with our HSA account, too! The charge holds all week. Recommend this 100%.

It does everything it says and with great clarity. You can also use the head as a standalone and use you headphones or ear buds. Great visual reading on the head piece and on your mobile device. The only negative is the high price for a yearly subscription, battery and ear pieces.

My husband and I gifted our daughter, and ED RN, this scope when hers finally gave out. Hers was from her RN school which was 10 years ago. She has worked so hard and I told her I loved mine. Now she is rocking the Eko!! Thank you for such a great product!!

Undecided yet with it. I am so used to an "analog" stethescope this digital signal will take some getting used to. On a hairy chest there is lots of static and makes the murmur hard to appreciate. The ECG signal is hard on men also. It is very interesting and have not given up. I do think it will take some getting used to if you are used to a regular stethescope and actually hear fairly well. The volume is louder and my grading of murmurs is also higher with this device. I am still going back and forth when I hear something.

This is a cool device. My first week's thoughts: the package arrived on the date delivered; click connection of headpiece to tube was simple; battery life is good and charging is simple; color accents are fun; chest connectivity is decreased by hair, obesity, copd, just like any stethoscope, but the EKG leads obtained are still useful; the scope connects quickly to the app; the scope picked up PVCs and afib accurately, with the former saving a prolonged clinic stay and allowed scheduling of a full EKG and further, fasting labs. Murmur pickup not as impressive??, but i've yet to fully use the scope fully for this function due to time limitations with patients.
