SinuPulse Elite Advanced Nasal Irrigation System - Pulsating Sinus Congestion Relief & Sinus Rinse Machine, More Effective Than Neti Pot, Nose Spray or Nasal Wash Bottle, with 90 SinuAir Packets

I have suffered from chronic hay fever and sinus issues al my life and I decided to try doing a nasal rinse. I did some research and the SinuPulse Elite seemed to be the best solution for my issues. I have used it for a week now and I am very pleased. I use it on the max setting of 7 and I get a powerful stream of pulsing water. It isn't so powerful as to be painful but it gets the water all of the way up into my sinus cavities. I did put a little petroleum jelly on the o-ring for the tank before first use. No leaks or any of the other issues some people reported. Someone wrote that their model didn't pulse. It must have been defective as you can feel the pulse in the wand while you are holding it and in your nose. I have been using the SinuPulse salt packets but I have ordered some different bulk salt that should prove cheaper. I chose the SiuPulse over the Lavage for the following reasons: First, it runs on standard household electricity and not batteries. Second, I am not locked into only using a manufacture's expensive salt pods only. Third, my sinuses drain into the sink and not into a tank that must be cleaned. Fourth, The SinuPulse uses pulsating pressure that you can apply to each nostril instead of the Lavage's suction from one direction only.

I had a much older unit similar to this one and I think, made by the same company and got many good years of use out of it before the motor failed. So, when I was having really bad issues with my sinuses due to unusual spring weather here in the NW, I looked for another unit that would give me the same results the proevious unit did. This SinuPulse system works the same as the older unit but looks different and has been updated. It works very well and has helped my sinus issues immensely. I am very satisfied with this unit even though you have to take extra care in cleaning it and how you use it.

Had a nasty head cold and neilmed just wasn’t cutting it. Bought this had instant relief. Took the great advice to start on low power setting and worked my way up. Also, the advice to touch your tongue to the roof of your mouth is vital.I bought the kit that included the packets to make the saline, that was easy to mix and use in a clear water bottle. I only filled the saline chamber half way and that was more than enough to clear out both sides.I wasn’t sure what to expect but it wasn’t that unpleasant. I was horrified by what came out of my body! No wonder I couldn’t breathe and felt horrible. I also bought some gel made by neilmed to make sure that my nasal passages didn’t get too dry.I now use this during allergy season(s) too and for the first time in 3 years, I haven’t had an asthma attack in October and my symptoms are much less prevalent.

I want to start out by saying that (at full send with the irrigation tip). There isn’t an appreciable amount of power difference between this and the 1/4 price sinugator. I appreciate the 25 oz water reservoir, but the included salt packets are pre measured for 500ml or 16oz… I’m a network engineer not a mathematician… just saying.I dunno. It does a really good job of cleaning the sinuses and at a bit more than twice the capacity of the sunugator:you’ll be sure to get most anything out.I guess I just I wanted to see a dang firehose compared to the sinugator or similar products… but this isn’t it.

It's not noisy at all. Delivers a good stream, nice big reservoir for sinuAir and distilled water. Replaced my Grossan and was surprised by design, efficiency and better results than my aging Grossan (purchasd well before Grossan was bought out). The mid-price point I purchased is fine. Sinus issues which included surgery make an item like this necessary for health maintenance and well being. Used almost daily. I like its low profile, storage, ease of use and easy to keep clean. Very pleased I chose this item. Hopefully, it will wear well over time.

Not enough pressure and resources to small

I find this to be the easiest to use for me. This works so much better for me than using a gravity rinse.

I really wanted to like this because my sinuses are so bad but it was just about the same strength of water outpour as the Neilmed bottle squeezer. It also stopped working after the 4th use. I was very careful using this machine and had placed it so no water would be near any parts other than the inside container. I also rinsed the unit after each use, I mean I handled this thing with kid gloves essentially and it still stopped working. I actually thought the water pressure was pretty low and I couldn’t really see or feel much difference than the squeeze bottle. I think the squeeze bottle had even better pressure than this.
