Breathing Exercise Device for Lungs | Lung Trainer with Travel Case Natural Therapy | Breathing Trainer MEP Test with Digital Manometer | Lung Exerciser Device

Even though instructions weren’t great, I found this very easy to use. It also has an app you can download if you want. The plastic is not cheap feeling at all which is great because that makes it very durable and will last a long time. I’ve been using this a while now and actually feel an improvement in my lungs. Overall this is a great device for the money.

I have asthma and thought this device would be good for me to use but it didn't work in my favor and I needed to use my inhaler after I was done.

It comes in a nice carry case, similar to a sunglasses case but shaped more like a hotdog bun. Inside are five individually bagged pieces that require assembly for the various usages. I had to read the two instruction cards and box info several times to figure out the different modes and configurations, as they're not particularly well described. The blue mouthpiece comes preinstalled and is for the manual mode, although there's also a hidden port on the main body that can connect it to the digital piece. The white mouthpiece substitutes for it when hooking up the electronic manometer portion, but only for Max testing as best I can tell.The six steps for both inhale and exhale are easy to adjust and easily differentiated resistance levels. I would like the 1-6 markings to be more legible, though. The back of the digital portion pries open to reveal a standard CR2032 battery (no weird one-off size to source), and is actually a Panasonic battery not a generic one. Both are reassuring signs of quality. I don't see anything in the instructions mentioning the battery or how to access it, though, so I was half expecting to find a charging port somewhere.At first, I wasn't sure the digital piece works. With the white mouthpiece connected to the electronic manometer (a very snug fit, no air leaks there), I can't breathe in or out at all -- like it's completely plugged -- although the readout does show it's registering small values. I *think* it's forcing it into Max testing mode despite not being set as such, as the digital portion works fine when connected to the mainbody via the flexible tube. The vague instructions leave me unsure of that, so I just leave it in the manual configuration. I do like it better than the breathing exercisers that are a ball that you raise via exhaled air pressure.The optional nose plug does a great job of sealing off that airway, forcing you to breathe through your mouth (and the resistance device).

I got a Sunmol Breathing Device and it's not too cool. The dials for "In" (intake) and "Out" (exhaust) have six positions. Paradoxically, the breathing "in" resistance increases (generally) with increasing numbers yet the "out" resistance (sort of) decreases with increasing numbers.For the intake, number 6 seems defective since it should offer max resistance but it's actually full open. For the out direction, the dial settings are fairly dysfunctional. "1" offers mild resistance (say 0 out of 10), "2" offers the identical amount of resistance (0/10). "3" offers much more, at 5/10. But "4", "5" and "6" are totally plugged up (10/10) so no air gets out: useless.I'm unable to take it apart to try to fix it since it's very well sealed. It's defective and Amazon refuses to allow me to return it or get a refund. Save your money or try cocktail straws as my doctor recommended.

Both of my parents have lung issues in their old age. If they don't keep up with their breathing exercises they can easily fall into pneumonia - both of them have been in the hospital several times for this. As part of recuperation and ongoing therapy, they're given breathing training devices that they're supposed to keep up with a few times a day. The problem is that these exercises are pretty boring, and once they get their day going they forget to do them. This device lets them do the same exercises, but has an electronic gizmo that shows the inhale and exhale pressure, and lets them connect to an app on their phone. Neither one of them is particularly phone savvy, but the app has a few games that work with the trainer, so that you can inhale and exhale while making a little fish/whale travel through an underwater obstacle course, plus a couple of other games. This really makes this exercise much easier to get through, and I'm hoping it makes them continue their therapy more frequently than before. The device itself is well-designed. It has dials to control the resistance of both inhaling and exhaling, so that you work from recovery after sickness to ongoing healthy maintenance. This is a great product for those who have breathing issues.

My doctor recommended that I work on improving my lung capacity and mentioned there were several breath exerciser devices available online. After some research, I decided to go with this one, but I’m regretting not choosing a simpler option.The device itself is more complicated than it needs to be. It boasts features like tracking your progress through a connected app and even playing exercise games, which sounded appealing and were part of the reason I opted for this pricier model. Unfortunately, the connectivity is a nightmare. The device constantly searches for Bluetooth but almost never finds the app. Out of around 20 attempts, I’ve only managed to connect it successfully once.Although you can technically use it without connecting to your phone, I feel like I wasted my money since I specifically paid more for those extra features. The tracking and games seemed like they would make the exercises more engaging, but they’re essentially useless due to the unreliable connection.If you’re looking for a basic breath exerciser, this will do the job, but if you’re expecting smooth functionality with the app and games, you’ll likely be as disappointed as I am. I wish I had gone with a simpler, more affordable option.
