I was wondering if anyone has used the new Littmann 3000. Littmann is offering a 2 week trial for free, and I'm condsidering purchasing it. Thanks!

I have one - got it over 3 years ago and love it. In fact, went to a trauma conference recently and talked with the 3M rep and just got my sthethoscope back from Minnesota where it was refurbished for FREE!!! (Way outside of warranty time too).
Awesome! The best price I've found is $289. Do you know of a better resource?

I have been using one for about 2 months now and I love it. The clarity and quality of sound is phenomenal. Several of the nurses I work with will ask to borrow it to assess their patients.

I am going to ask for it for a graduation present! This sounds awesome.

at NTI in Chicago, they had a focus group that if you attended for an hour, you received 100$ coupon for the purchase of one. I am in love with my new ears. Not only does it weigh less than my old cardio III but the sounds are fantastic.
I admit I am afraid to loose it so it stays on my body at all times, but the quality of this piece of equipment is hard to beat

I am so glad to read all the positive feedback on this stethoscope. I just ordered one from Jasco last weekend. Yes, I am concerned about loss so I ordered the plum color and will bring my old one to loan. I'm curious how this stethosope has one's name placed on it to identify it as YOURS. :confused:I am looking foreward to using it as my hearing isn't the best.

How is the Littmann 3000 compared to the Littmann 4100?
