Editor's Summary
I've gotta say, this nasal aspirator has been a total game-changer for us when it comes to managing my daughter's runny nose. It's been a huge help in keeping her congested nose under control, and I love that it's so easy to use. I can hold her with one hand and press the button with the other - it's a lifesaver when she's feeling miserable. Plus, it's relatively healthy for her, unlike some other nasal decongestants I've tried. I'm so glad I made the switch to a battery-powered one - it's worth every penny! It's been a few weeks now, and I'm still really happy with the results. My daughter's nose is always clear, and she's not as fussy as she used to be. I've even recommended it to friends and family, and they've all had great experiences with it.
Specifications
When my little one gets a cold, she's bound to have a runny nose. Luckily, we're blessed with a relatively healthy kid - we only get the occasional cold or flu once a year. But last winter, she was congested for a while, although we didn't have any major issues. I tried Otrivin at first, but I'd read that the mucus often ends up in your mouth. I'm not exactly thrilled about that. My husband tried to help, but it wasn't easy for him to use either. I decided to get a battery-powered one, and it's been a real lifesaver.
Looking back, I'm not sure why I didn't get this one sooner! It's honestly been a huge help in managing my daughter's runny nose.
It may seem counterintuitive, but I've actually gotten pretty good at handling it on my own. I just hold my kid with one hand and press the button with the other. Now that she's a bit older, she sometimes lets me clean her nose, but only after some negotiation - usually involving Kinder chocolate or Cheetos.
Here's the result:
Nasal Aspirator B.Well WC-150As for the packaging, I immediately threw it away after the first use - I don't like collecting boxes.

Nasal Aspirator B.Well WC-150
Nasal Aspirator B.Well WC-150 The package includes:
• Aspirator
• Two silicone attachments
• Spare rubber seal
• Storage pouch
• Instructions
I think there was a cleaning brush too, but I lost it.
Nasal Aspirator B.Well WC-150The aspirator is designed for easy cleaning - just rinse it under running water and let it air dry.
Nasal Aspirator B.Well WC-150It runs on two AA batteries, which I've had for about a year now - I haven't replaced them yet, but we don't use it that often.
B.Well WC-150 Nasal AspiratorI've got two different tip sizes - one for little ones and another for older kids. I've tried it out on myself, and it's perfect for adults too, especially when you're feeling lazy about blowing your nose. Or, you know, you're just showing everyone that it's not scary or painful. So, my daughter's unicorns, dogs, and even her favorite plush rabbit have all had their boogers suctioned out with this thing. And, let's be real, even my husband wasn't immune to this affliction.
B.Well WC-150 Nasal AspiratorThe device is super comfortable to hold, and it doesn't slip out of your hand. There's even a little loop on the back that lets you clip it to your wrist for extra security.
B.Well WC-150 Nasal AspiratorWhen you turn it on, the aspirator starts vibrating and buzzing, which is pretty cool. It's not too loud, though - just a gentle hum that helps to clear out your nasal passages.
B.Well WC-150 Nasal AspiratorOne more fun feature - the aspirator has a little speaker and some soothing music that plays when you press the button with the note on it. It's not the most advanced music, but it's definitely a nice distraction. There are a few different tunes, but I'm not entirely sure how many there are. My only complaint is that it's a bit too loud - I wish there was a volume control.
