I ordered a Littmann Classic II S.E. in Royal Blue from Medisave and was able to get free engraving

I've had blue, navy blue, green, red, and black stethoscope tubing. The red and black stethoscopes were super cheap ones I got from work many years ago, or from school. My Sprague Rappaport style stethoscopes have all had black tubing. Everything else has been a Littmann of some sort. My current Littmann Cardiology III stethoscope is navy blue. I have had this one for about 14 years now and it's still going strong.

I've been very satisfied with the Littmann stethoscopes that I've had over the years and I'm sure current models are at least as good. If you're looking for a starter, just get one that's between about $30 and $70 and you'll have a good starter stethoscope that should last you for years and you won't miss it much if you have to replace it.

I also got the Littman Classic II SE raspberry tubing with rainbow bell. I bought the black attachment that I had to send off and get my name engraved. I love it.

I have a littman cardiology 3 black edition. The entire thing is black including bell, chest piece, and binaurals. It hasn't "grown legs" yet, but the tubing is engraved with my name.

Littman in raspberry. I don't dig the name engraving though.... seriously, if someone from another unit walked off with your stethoscope that tiny inscription is not going to help you find it. I however covered my tubing in pink panther and regular show stickers.... so if some dopey resident walks off with my junk I'll see it from a mile away and.... DAT A** IS MINE!

I have 2 Littman's. My grandmother gave me her black Littman, and I bought a raspberry Littman. Whichever one I'm using for the day will never leave my person, lol. It'll be around my neck, stuck in my ears, or in one of my pockets.

After 25+ years in healthcare..I can testify that no matter the color they can ALL grow legs :) ohh and engraved ones..those grow legs too. I had an obnoxious flourecent orange one with my name engraved..yup..it grew legs one day...never did see it again.

I've had my Littman Classic since LPN school (2007), black. Love it.

I have a Littmann Classic II in "Take me!!" black LOL. I figure it doesn't matter what color it is, if it's gonna walk, it's gonna walk Mine stays in my pants pocket (cargo-style scrubs), and I have yet to ever lay it down somewhere much less forget it in a room.
