Pros: Like a mini ladle that can hold a small drop of liquid. Natural material provides a smooth, warm-to-the-touch grip. Compact size but easy to find where you but it because of the red tassel.
Cons: The natural grain in the horn makes the weakness that will cause it to break one day, so buy a few if you plan to use these roughly.
Other Thoughts: If you think of this as just a "tool", you will see it is handy to use to dab a droplet of perfume from a bottle, or a spade to clean a pipe, or a modeling tool. I ordered more right away.
Bottomline: A very handy tool to have in the house even if you don't have ears.
Dig for glory!

Pros: Does a good job of getting to those hard to reach areas of the ear.
Like a mini spade, good to scrape and picks quite a bit of wax out at a time.
Smooth, flat tip, doesnt scratch the inside of the ear, so no inflamation.
Cons: One broke after about three weeks, but to be honest, I'm glad it did as if I'd pressed any harder I'd have done some damage to my ear.
Otherwise, none whatsoever.
Other Thoughts: If you have trouble like I do with ear wax, then this is hidden gem. I've tried all sorts of ways of trying to reve wax, and most either scratch the ear to bits and cause inflamation, or push the wax further in, like cotton buds. This does neither, and is smooth and great to use.
Only use after warming your ear, as cold hard wax just either wont come out or hurts.
Bottomline: If you have trouble with wax build up then dont pass this by, just get some! I can see why they sell out so quickly, they're great. I'll be putting my order in when they come back in stock. Get some spares too. You wont be disappointed.
