Navage Essentials Bundle - Nasal Irrigation System - Saline Nasal Rinse Kit with 1 Navage Nose Cleaner, 30 Salt Pods and 1 Countertop Caddy

I love this device! It’s easy to use and it helps with many issues. Helps with nasal dripping, allergies, preventing sore throats, etc. You can adjust the flow of which nostril you want the solution to flow in and out of. Easy to clean. Replaceable batteries, which the batteries last a long time that it comes with. You won’t use a neti pot again after this!

Had one before I moved and lost it. Got a nasal fresh MD, hated it and looped back to buy another navage. Two day sinus headache gone, just like that. I have a deviated septum, external & internal valve collapse and allergies. So it doesn’t take much inflammation to block me up and then I get a sinus headache. This works amazingly for fixing it. Afrin is a temporary solution, BUT using afrin to temporarily stop the swelling and open everything up, then using this in that time is a phenomenal duo for clearing the sinuses.

I was reluctant to try this, as its expensive, once I got past the first try, i liked it. I couldn't imagine having water pumped through my sinus, how ever once you take the plunge I'm very happy I bought this. I have chronic sinus problems, stuffiness nasal congestion. I find it's best to use at least twice a day. I'm amazed on how much mucus and snot you wash out with each use. It feels good to rinse the sinus. I last longer with out nasal sprays after i use it. It will not work with out a salt pod in it , so you cannot dry run it. Pod has to be in place for it to engage. If you try it with out the pod you will think it doesn't work or stopped working. It's set up to work with their pod in it. That's fine with me. I rinsed it out, tried it for a couple days, before I ordered more salt pods, I just did one rinse tonight I'll do another in a while. Works great cleaning out sinuses. Salt pods work, feel just fine. I found it also helps you get over a cold quicker, flushing the mucus out. Mine usually lingers, Not this time. Rinsing with Navage helped greatly. I now enjoy the rinse. I have a deviated septum. I read people saying it will not work with the Deviated Septum.. so that means for me my nasal passage is smaller on my left side. So I physically adjust the nozzels while I'm holding it in action, if its going slow, it means the passage is not straight, I wiggle it and or align it while in progress of rinsing. so for me it works fine with my deviated septum. If you have a clogged sinus, clear it first with meds or spray, Once you reduced sinus swelling, the unit works better it needs a clear passage. I will continue to use it twice a day it gives me relief. It's easier to take care of your sinuses using this machine in my opinion. I am not a Dr or medical person. I'm just a customer. yes it feel good to wash the snot out and see what is floating in the tank, you'll be surprised what you wash out regularly. Try it out it may help you. If not you can always return it under 30 days I believe. Also I read here it takes one cup of water, that is correct. I fill a measuring cup to the line one cup, then I let it sit on the counter to warm up and I microwave the water for 11 seconds, so its not cold in the sinus. I wish I would have bough this sooner, sure does help flushing the sinuses. Once you use it a couple times you'll find it very easy to use and clean. I use filtered water that takes the Chlorine and chemicals out of the tap water.

No Countertop Caddy come with it.

Hands down, this is the best thing I own. After using it, I feel like I’m using my nose for the very first time. I have seen a remarkable decrease in my sinus and nasal issues since using it. It recommends to use it twice a day, I definitely don’t do that. Once a week works for me. It’s easy to use, easy to clean, and well worth the price. The countertop caddy is nice to have because it helps with the drying process after using.

Excellent for clearing out the nasal passages. I like it!

READ BETWEEN THE LINES: "operates exclusively with genuine Naväge SaltPod capsules to provide a soothing, refreshing, perfectly-balanced saline rinse every time. Our patented system eliminates the measuring and the mess." This does NOT let the buyer know that the machine will ONLY work if you purchase the pods. However, once you receive the unit you see that information is prominently featured via a sticker on that machine that reads "No Salt Pod, No Power!" SURPRISE! If you do not want to purchase the expensive & bulky salt pods, this machine will not work. If you want to make your own salt water, this machine will not work. If you open the lid where the pod it, the machine will stop working & the only way to get it to work is by inserting a new pod. That also means you can not run a cleaning cycle on this machine. You can't run soap & water through it. You can't run vinegar & water through it.AVAILABILITY: The Pods are not available at your local drug store. Sometimes they are available via PRIME and sometimes, not.COST & THE ENVIRONMENT: Per Navage USA Customer Support, when purchased in quantity discounts, one-a-day costs about $2.31/week, less than $10/month. However many people with allergies & chronic sinusitis rinse 2-3 times/day! I see on this site Navage offers 90 salt pods for approx. $40 and 30 salt pods for $15. Do that math on what that's going to cost you for regular year-round use if you have allergies & chronic sinusitis. AND... you've gotta store these things. And they're more plastic for recycling - NOT environmentally friendly. Given that these pods come out of a factory - you should be wiping them down with an alcohol pad before you insert them so you're not snorting who-knows-what.YOUR WATER: You've got to use distilled or boiled water. Fine. But it should be warm. So now you have to heat it up in a different container. If you are using this machine to help with sinus infections, you've got to mix in your liquid steroid and prescription medication in that different container then transfer all to the Navage. And clean up/sterilize your first container. Once you close the lid and break the salt pod, you have to mix BUT you have to be super careful because water/solution leaks out the top front of the unit when you swirl. The tank on top of Navage that holds your rinse solution is not a closed container so you can't heat the water in the container & you can't mix your solution in the container.CLEAN UP: You can't run a cleaning cycle. The top green tank, it's awkward, you can rinse it or submerge it in a sink of hot soapy water or vinegar water. You can't put cleaning solution in there and shake it around because of the 2 openings. Not a fan of the super small end/narrow end of the tank. The bottom tank you can put cleaning solution on & put your hand over the 1 opening & shake & rinse. However, I haven't managed to get that tank off the unit without getting that dirty sinus water all over. It's awkward. Also the battery is on top of this tank. Read the reviews, if you get the battery compartment wet, you're done for. The lid at the very top of the machine has to be rinsed before and after use because the pods can cause a salt build up - this doesn't happen with salt packets or when you make your own salt water. You're not supposed to get the main, white body wet, but how do you get the salt solution off of it? How do you get your medicated solution off of it? Both nasal pillows have to come off for cleaning after each use as does the little nasal port and when you take that off... water comes out of the machine.Great idea, very poorly executed. Clean up is IMO, a nightmare especially since I rinse more than once a day, every day. It takes more time to prep & clean this machine than it's worth. And, you don't build brand loyalty by locking consumers into buying salt pods or the machine won't work. Right?
