Nasal aspirators
Dr. Noze Best NozeBot Electric Nasal Aspirator
Our take
The strongest suction in Babylist's roundup, with finger grips and several levels, so it clears thick congestion. Very loud, bulky and expensive.
ElectricStrongest suctionPlug-in
Consider instead: Grownsy for a cheaper electric option.
Before you buy
Do you need it?Must-have Newborns can't blow their noses, and congestion makes feeding hard.
Cost per monthAbout $5.62 a month over a typical 24 months of use. Our estimate; your use may be shorter or longer.
Cheaper optionFrida Baby NoseFrida SnotSucker (manual): About $20, scored 88 (Excellent).
Secondhand?Buy new. Buy new for hygiene.
