I thought I would keep this in the package in our first aid kit and never need to actually use it. My 18 month old LOVES pickles and is generally really good about chewing but he was not doing a great job of chewing yesterday and began gagging on a piece of pickle so we gave it a moment to let him work it out. As soon as we saw he was choking, my wife delivered back blows and was scooping his throat to try to get his airway cleared and I went to rip the Safe-Vac out of the package and got the youth facemask fitted on the plunger tool. We flipped my son over onto his back and after 2 attempts his airway was clear and he was coughing and crying and the pickle was out. I hadn't even read the instructions yet so the fact that I was able to use this in that moment and it work was huge. If you are on the fence about having this on hand, I urge you to go ahead and get it to have in case you ever find yourself in a situation that you need it.

I bought this item a few years ago after my daughter did a swallow study and we found out she can’t swallow well at all and had to switch her to tube feeds. My daughter is cognitively and physically disabled. Today, my other daughter left her hot dog out and my disabled daughter must have gotten into it, we didn’t see it happen, we only saw her choking. We were able to get the hot dog out within seconds. This device saved my daughter today.

Great tool to have handy and easily accessible. Worth every penny. Our 9yr old son whom has Down Syndrome, was choking on his food. To the point he turned blue in the face. Being limited on his verbal skills it was difficult to understand him. Once we realized he was in distress we immediately applied the tool to use and worked a miracle. To the designer and inventor, thank you and may God continue to bless you.

My 16 month old was playing at my feet with a hair product container and got the lid caught in his throat. After trying to get it out with back thrusts we realized it was lodged too far back to reach and that time was running out before we got into needing a paramedic to save his life. Thankfully I had this product nearby and my husband was able to use it on our son and it pulled the lid out of his throat so that we could then grab it out of his mouth. I have no doubts that this saved his life. I bought it when he started eating solids at 6 months just in case and it sat in the cabinet since then as we’ve never needed it until today. I am so thankful I bought this back then! I am buying two more for our vehicles and I’ll be buying them for family as well.
