Worked with side effects – Helped clear the mucus but caused nose bleed after a couple of days of usage. Switched to mothers milk up the nose, found it more gentler and effective. Feel more safer than saline for new borns. Aspirator doesnt work. Baby generally sneezes to push mucus and excess saline out.  Show details

Bad angle spray for babies – Works at removing visible mucous. After a few sprays or a good one if it works first time! Negatives - This is a very hard to use spray for infants. The amount of times I’ve sprayed my wiggling 3 month old in the eye is countless. 4 Sprays maybe something will come out the 5th go. It needs to spray at any angle- babies are laying on backs with no… Read more

neck control at a young age. I’ve used another brand that sprays at any angle every time on the 1st attempt and will not buy FeSs spray again. I like the drops and aspirator- that product I recommend (as with a laying down baby it’s easy to use)

Highly recommend FESS – My husband suffers from severe pollen allergy hayfever in summer. In combo with a mild anti histamine this is fantastic! He can now sleep and function during the day with help from FESS. Show details

Gentle and less hurting – The spray is not as strong as another brand and gentle on little nose. My daughter is quite sensitive with the nose area so found out this one is great.  Show 2 replies

Solution is great but forget the aspirator – We never had much success with the aspirator as my daughter wouldn't keep still for long enough (I also didn't feel very confident using it) but the saline worked a treat.

W-O-R-S-T Nasal Aspirator – Ok, so the saline spray works as it should but that is where the positive points end. The design of the nasal aspirator is poor and means that the pointy end is far too easily shoved up the infants nostril. One mum I shared my horrific attempted use with had a similar story. Her attempt resulted in her baby girl having a bleeding nostril. I have… Read more

used the 'Snotty Me' with ease and no harm to my baby. I now also have the battery operated version called the 'Snotty One'. The key design difference is that they don't have pointy ends - the tip is more bulbous and doesn't easily fit up an infant-sized nostril. At last - a sensible design!

not that great – I have always bought this product but it has been no good to me. It's been a battle using this product . It's not gentle n I feel that it's not shaped well. This is probably well used by adults but I don't think that this is child friendly. Maybe if it were more like an angle spray and safe to take near nose then I would be happier.I am… Read more

hestitating to use this product due to its shape. For me what good I's a product when it doesn't do it's job. If it's for a child it should be easy to use for the child.

Hard to administer – The biggest problem of the Fess spray is that it doesn't spray from any angle. Your child will have to be nearly upright to administer it. This proves to be very annoying after awhile especially if your child is quite young. It does work well in helping to relieve blocked noses though. Doesn't spray from any angle

Smartest thing on the market for babies! – I'm not sorry to say this but all negative reviews from these mothers should be ignored. Seriously, it's a great product. I've used to suffer bad allergies & used Fess to help me before pregnancy & afterwards. Using it for my baby means no wet cotton bubs, tissue problems etc. it's safe, just salt water (some silly mother up top complained it… Read more

tasted yukky, grow up! :) It's well made, doesn't feel cheap on hands, sure you have to sit your baby upright you're supposed too. If you can get someone to help you it makes it easier, but the product shouldn't be blamed for some mothers stupidity or babies crankiness. I will say though, I found instructions to be a bit off. What I did: Sit baby up, spray in nostrils untI you get a good spray (1 -2 sprays per side max), then squeeze air out, pop just inside the nose (not deep) then let go to fill (repeat if necessary. Some boogers put up a fight! :D I love it, can't complain baby breathing, house happy problem solved.Thanks Fess! I'm a loyal customer, keep up the great work. Healthy & safe way to unclog babies tiny noses, good value for money

The spray doesn't work and it didn't suck out anything – I tried blocking one nostril then followed the instruction and sucked on the other one. after 8 attempts and a hysterical baby, the nose is still blocked. The spray doesn't work unless you hold the baby upright and spray up. this product is hopeless. I wish I can get a refund.

Hard to use, distressing for my baby – My baby had a cold and we were finding it difficult to breastfeed with his nose being so blocked. I tried Fess little noses spray but found it difficult to spray it in my baby's nose as it was hard to get him upright and spray in his nose and he was wiggling a lot. Then I tried to use the aspirator as per the instructions on the box and found it… Read more

to be a really horrible experience as my baby was so upset by lying down and having the aspirator at the entrance to his nose and trying to hold the other nostril shut. I feel like I did not have enough hands to manage all that as well as trying to keep my baby calm. When I did manage to use the aspirator it did not seem to help at all. I then tried the spray up my own nose and found the taste to be yucky. I will not be using Fess again, and have since found a cheaper brand which is much easier to spray up my baby's nose.

Hard to get spray up baby's nose and the aspirator was hard to use, and did not help unblock my baby's nose.

Fantastic Product – My 2 month old was diagnosed with having a completely blocked nose (i.e she was unable to breath out of the nose at all!). The seventh doctor we saw after trying many different things recommended this product and we have been ever so grateful! It is easy to administer, and although the child feels very uncomfortable when you are administering… Read more ·  1

and using the aspirator the results thereafter are amazing. My daughters nose cleared up pretty much straight away, but due to her allergies we have to continue to use the product which I am happy to do given the results. It is worth buying two though because I found that when you have littles ones you tend to forget about cleaning the aspirator before the next use, so I was for a short time having to quickly clean it while my infant was crying and upset, whereas with two you always have a spare clean one. Reliable, inexpensive ($11.95), it works

Does the job – Was recommended to get this by our GP for our 9 week old who has a cold. She had a blocked nose and the Dr recommended to get this mainly for the saline spray to help moisten any blockages and then to try and get her to sneeze (using a tissue) rather than rely on the aspirator or "brain sucker" as we have named it. The saline spray is good,… Read more

doesn't spray perfectly all the time, which can be annoying as it's stressful enough trying to administer this to a baby that is unwell.

The aspirator works 50/50 - sometimes it helps bring out the mucous and sometimes it just aggravates my daughter to tears.

Would still recommend and use this for a blocked nose in a baby as there isn't much else that you can do. Best tip is to make sure baby is upright and not lying down you use it. Fairly reliable Doesn't spray all the time.
