Do you think, if I buy a fun colored stethoscope like pink or orange, people won't take me seriously?
i just bought the Littman Cardiology 3 black edition and it is sweet looking. I have only seen it on 2 people and that was a paramedic in pittsburgh and Dr. Cox from Scrubs. It definatly stands out and if it gets swiped ill know who stole it (plus i got it engraved) I had a raspberry littman card ii se and it walked off but its a common color and I wont be able to spot it.I got mine on steeles.com
I want to order from Steeles.com because they will engrave the bell, did all go well when you ordered?

I ordered from http://www.steeles.com and it went well... I got what I ordered when they said I would get it.
I would recommend them to anyone.

KC, your preferences don't let anyone send you a PM and your email address fails... Hard to answer a PM and give an opinion!!! :)
I personally bought the gray Littman Cardiology III from Allheart.com for nursing school. Everyone has black, so I wanted mine to be a little different, but still be able to have a versitile color. I have not seen a gray scope at the hospital that I'm currently working as a tech. I was thinking of maybe trying to find a paint that won't wash off w/alcohol & hand painting pink or purple polk-a-dots or something? Something to personalize that won't harbor germs, as engraving the gray scope was not an option available at allheart.com.
Between my husband and I (he's an EMT) we have at least 6 stethescopes and not one of them are a "normal color" The one I am currently using is a purple cammo Ultrascope Everyone at work Knows it's mine not only d/t the color but the odd shaped head. My husband has a bright blue ultrascope with a flag on the head. If you want personalization I would go with Ultrascope you can pick and personalize your head and even engrave it. The price depends on how personal you want it but Everybody knows it is yours! I love the sound quality of it too!
I have the boring black Littman. I love the Littman but I want to get a new one. Something with color..and I want it engraved now that I have my license.
I have noticed in my facility I am the ONLY one with a black stethoscope everyone else has cool, bright colors, except they have the cheapy ones with bad sound quality so they are always asking to borrow mine. I let them borrow it but I go where it goes, so I follow them to the room of the pt they want to use it on :lol:
Try ultra scope. They're really good and the tubing comes in a million colors and you can get the scope part in a hundred different designs. They have 2 different types of camo and they are really pretty in life. They look sort of glassy. You can probably just google for the website. I love mine!
