high quality
I ordered this stethoscope a couple years ago and have used it regularly. I feel it's well engineered. I find the sound is better than my other high quality scopes. For the ground sound, it's also a little lighter than the Littman cardiology soft touch. The earpieces don't hurt my ears by applying too much pressure. It's a good quality instrument.

ERKA Sensitive Stethoscope in Navy
I bought this stethoscope because Im a bit hard of hearing in one ear. I borrowed a Littmann Cardiology Stethoscope and realized immediately its what I needed. Problem is, it didnt fit into my budget. After researching this carefully, I took a risk and I bought the ERKA and I absolutely love it! Ive been a nurse for 40 years including nearly a decade doing medical and CCU nursing and have used many brands and styles of stethoscopes. I love the sound of course, but also the feel, the shape of the bell, the handling - if that makes sense. Its solid without being heavy. I couldnt be more pleased.

Erka Sensitive
I work in Cardiology, primarily in an out-patient practice. The sound with this stethoscope is certainly better than my Cardiology III I had throughout school. I asked my physician to compare the sound quality as he has the Master Cardiolgy ERKA compares the Sensitive to. He was impressed. Dollar for dollar, this seems to be a great buy. The customer service is great too. Initially there was a little confusion on how to request new parts. The ring that holds the membrane to the chest piece had gotten lost. Once I contacted Medelita I had a response the same day and it was completely resolved w

ERKA Sensitive Stethoscope
I just received this about one week ago and I am already totally in love with this stethoscope. The sound is so loud and clear, and I haven't had any difficulties hearing murmurs or aberrant breath sounds. It is also durable, but not too heavy that it is weighing down my white coat. It has become my daily stethoscope in the hospital and while seeing clinic patients as well. I highly recommend it. Plus it comes in a ton of awesome colors, how could you go wrong?!

Great customer service and stethoscope
The chill ring that goes over edge of stethoscope had problems (mine ripped) but company is correcting it; I initially had some problem getting in touch with seller (probably my fault) but when I did connect with them they were more than helpful and very nice! The scope is very good and I have used many over the past 35 years. James

Great Sounds, Flimsy Diaphragm
Great sounds, comfortable stethoscope. Diaphragm is slipping off or falling off constantly. Its happening more often, the longer I have this. I have had this for less than a year. I previously had a littman cardiolgy III and will likely be going back to that brand as this one is becoming unreliable.

Best Stethoscope Out There!
This stethoscope is so lightweight I sometimes forget it is around my neck, I can hear the finest of all crackles and the quietest of all murmurs. The acoustics of this stethoscope are on another level. I definitely recommend this to anyone who appreciates high quality and doesn't want to settle for anything less. Medelita never disappoints.

Erka Stethoscope
Very impressive scope. Will replace my Littmann from 1977, which has served me well. Love the weight and feel of the Erka as well as its sensitivity. The dual tubes are great. Appearance suggests quality and good engineering, as expected from Germany. Very satisfied.

ERKA Sensitive - Awesome!
I haven't had a quality stethoscope in a while, and the difference was obvious for me with this stethoscope. Easy to use. Great quality. I'm hearing heart sounds louder and more clearly than with my prior, cheaper stethoscope. Would highly recommend to colleagues.

Great update !
I took advantage of a recent sale and purchased the ERKA Stethoscope. I wasnt really familiar with this brand and had been using another brand for the past 20+ years. I am very happy with my purchase. The sensitivity of this stethoscope is great and I really feel I can hear better!

My new favorite stethoscope
The ERKA Sensitive is hands-down, the best stethoscope I have ever used. The ear buds fit comfortably, the length of the tubing is perfect, and the sound is clear. I'm looking forward to many years of hard work with this new tool in my medical kit.

Very high quality!
I absolutely love this stethoscope. The tubing is extremely high quality and remains very malleable. The combo bell/diaphragm combo provides great auscultation of murmurs and, I personally feel, is much more ergonomic.

ERKA Sensitive Stethoscope
We recently purchased 9 ERKA Sensitive Stethoscopes. Medelita has been fantastic to work with and resolved any questions/concerns that we had immediately. Will absolutely work with Medelita again in the future!

Love my new ERKA
I had no idea how much I was missing. My old Littman Cardiologist cracked and I realized I was not hearing much. Wow, what a difference with the ERKA! Great sound, comfortable and attractive. Love it!

High Quality Scope
I switched to the ERKA from a Littmann, and I've been very pleased. My husband (a physician) has actually switched now too! Great sound quality and nice fitting ear pieces.

Wonderful stethoscope, very sensitive and well made. On the heavy side, but not excessively so. Sleek design, nice color options.

Great scope to have. Can easily auscultate lung sounds and heart tones with ease! Better than any Littman Ive had.
