If our children are suffering from colds, initially or in support of other drugs coming our larger nebulizer is used, which is however large, bulky, noisy and difficult - compared with this model. While the little one is not as powerful, but he does clearly what he should: obfuscate the drug or saline tidy. The small size and the lower volume (loud ists yes nevertheless still) has the advantage that the device probably know this can take and - what is even noticed us with our young children - that you can not once cajole needs that little ones dare address to the loud machine. That works hereby clearly better. Assembling the device can be very simple: compressor with hose, hose with a mouthpiece or nosepiece combine, pour solution start. Unfortunately - and that would be for me the only thing that would make me hold again for an alternative set out: there are no right Inhalaltionsmasken (neither for children nor for adults) with the package. The one can indeed buy more separately, but would be better from the start. Especially in children, I find it useful when you can place the mask over your nose and mouth with rubber after a familiarization phase. The nose piece is - even for adults - getting used to. The processing of the individual parts can not be criticized. Conclusion: If you look at the price and will be mainly a small, quieter machine to take away or easy storage at home, then you can go wrong with the CompAir Basic compressor nothing, but should consider in advance whether you prefer a device with masks want to use.
