Adult Ultra Soft Oxygen Cannula, green tubing - 7 Ft (Westmed #0556) Case 50

Dad’s oxygen tubes have been rubbing sores on his ears and he was not a very happy camper. Okay, I’ll admit he’s also not a tolerant person, but let’s face it the tubing that comes from the oxygen company is probably bought because it’s cheap and obviously not bought because it’s comfortable for the poor folks that have to use it. So while I was reading reviews because the cushions I bought him didn’t work/were discarded/otherwise disappeared (when Dad doesn’t like a solution, he either tucks it into the depths of one of his drawers or slips it into the garbage, disappearing the offending item to make his displeasure known). Anyway, as I was reading reviews someone recommended buying ultra soft oxygen tubing, which I had never heard of, so I started researching that. The reviews were so glowing for this tubing that I bought it for Dad and well, he is now officially a happy camper again. I wish I knew where I saw that review so I could send the person a virtual hug! What a difference this tubing makes; there is absolutely no comparison to what was supplied by the oxygen company. This tubing is smaller and so much softer; it’s the cat’s meow. Very, very pleased with this purchase.

My father has been using oxygen daily since 10/2018, and was having trouble with sores behind his ears, inside his nose and on his cheeks, from the cannulas that had been provided by hospice. I read some favorable reviews on this product, and although hesitant due to the quantity, I ordered these. I am SO glad that I did. I switched his cannula out for one of these only 5 days ago and already all of the sores are healing, and he no longer winces in pain as I adjust the cannula for him. These are very soft and flexible, they sit closer to the bridge of the nose but are not tight, and the length of the piece going inside the nostril is slightly longer, making for a much better fit all around. He is so grateful we found these for him. I highly recommend them, The only negative thing I can say is that for the first few hours there was a strong plastic type odor, but after that, it was gone. So, solution going forward it to open the package and air the one out I want to use before actually using it.

They fit perfectly and are easy on the ears. We’ve purchased them several times.

I have been on oxygen since 2011 after I was diagnosed with hypoxemia. I only have to wear it at night and sleeping in those cheap ones offered by local oxygen supplies was awful to say the least. I had super deep indents in my face and they wouldn't stay on because of the stiffness. These are super soft, smaller tubing around the face, not near the indents of a long night of sleep and they stay on! I have given some to all my elderly friends (mind you I am 38) that use oxygen and they too have stopped using the garbage the oxygen supply stores sell.

Well made and what I was expecting.

really comfy and stay in place better than prior tubes I had... the part I liked was not nostril tubes run a little deeper than prior brands. Of course... like any of the others... reacting with our skin they get stiff over time and need replacing. That is typical of all I think. Still ..good bang per $$

The nasal canula fits well and is very comfortable. However, the slide that makes the fit around the head and ears larger or smaller is very loose. The slide slides down to the joint where the single hose and the double hose meet. This causes the canuala to flop around or even to fall off. The slide must be continually adjusted. I probably will not by this brand again.

Several times my oxygen supply company has moved to cheaper (and very uncomfortable!) canulas. My father-in-law recently passed away, and I was given his unused canulas, which happened to be this brand. Wow, what a difference! These are far more comfortable, and the quality is far superior! I will be ordering these from here out!
