Locks you into using the pods but it sure cleared up my sinus condition with a recent cold/flu bug. Made it easier to sleep at night as my sinuses were no longer blocked. I use a Zero Water filter and let the water warm up to room temperatures. Works great...

Zero water filters don't remove bacteria, so best to use distilled water or boiled tap water.

You don't need to use the pods. Just use salt, boiled or distilled water, optionally baking soda, and a 2 minute zip tie hack to get around the pod DRM. Video:

I have experience with Neti pots and they work but you absolutely need to follow the directions. The people who have had problems very likely did not use sterile water and or hygienic practices and got a nasty sinus infection.

In the states they have pods with eucalyptus and other stuff. Probably some sort of regulation issue regarding why they can’t be sold here, but definitely wanted to give the other types a try.

I’m not a medical doctor, but there’s definitely a therapeutic effect using this occasionally as needed when congested or sick (etc). Using this everyday is probably not necessary and might do more to irritate your sinuses. YMMV though.

+1

The only time I would tell anyone considering using zero water over distilled (to save money) is if you are using it for an application where it will be evaporated off and you do not want the mineral residue. Warm/ cool mist Humidifiers/ baby bottle sterilizers etc.

Dunno how this stacks against it:

Good price, I just got one a few weeks ago.

Agreed with above, I just buy a jug of distilled water, why risk potentially introducing bacteria into your sinuses.

I've been dealing with post nasal drip and it does help clear things out, but so far just temporary relief. Using it with a steroid spray, doctor's hoping this will clear everything out over the next 1-2 weeks.

Just blow your nose.

I use this device religiously for seasonal allergies. One of the best devices ever made that's fully natural and helps me use less allergy medications.

I am only writing this in the hopes it helps other people. Just make sure you always use it with distilled water which is pretty cheap at shoppers and lasts for quite a few nasal flushes.

Pro's:
- The mechanism machine once you get use to it is very efficient, fast and effective. Better than anything else I have ever used
- If i mow the lawn, chop some wood or work in a dusty environment, I immediately use this device to flush my sinus out, and the capture tank always shows me results of the stuff that got flushed out of my sinus.
- It helps me use less allergy nasal products
- you can get plastic hack tabs online so you don't always have to use the saline pods, sometimes i just do water flushes in the middle of the day to moisturize my dry winter sinus.
- I personally microwave and heat up the distilled water in a glass cup for 30 seconds prior to using this device and it works awesome. Warm water makes it feel soothing

Con's:
- All around cost of ownership and pods, nothing else actually, its a very good sinus flush product

tips:
- Try not to use less than an hour before bed, it can occasionally cause a slight nasal drip
- you can get plastic hack tabs online, which allow you to just do plain water nasal flushes if you need be.

Neti pot doesn't use pressure, just gravity.

Or better yet don’t get sick.

That looks like a Waterpik for your nose

My ENT wants me to irrigate 6 times per day. I'm not sure there is a limit.

Hardly an option now that COVID measures are gone.

So you can use this without saline? The instructions say that it can be painful without saline, but I wasn't sure why. I know there's a ziptie hack to bypass the pod requirement itself, but I didn't realize it could be used without any added saline solution.

Does the saline better help cleanse or sterilize during the operation vs plain distilled water or is there another reason? TIA
