Comfortable and YES, it is adjustable!
Have been using happily ever since I discovered them several years ago. For those who find the nasal prongs uncomfortable, they're easy to trim with a pair of scissors, which decreases the angle of the prongs. A user mentioned getting headaches from the s

I purchased this item recently and have returned to purchase more. The headset takes some getting used to. It doesn't stay in place like the over the ears type, but if you take the time to extend all the adjustable bits everyone can find a comfortable adj

Try it - sensitive skin users will like this
This is a good idea. Sensitive skin users and anyone annoyed by plastic tubing behind their ears should try it to see if they like it. The headband is comfortable and easy to adjust. The nose piece tubing should be sold separately so we can re-use the hea

Love the concept!
I love the concept of this alternative to the traditional nasal oxygen cannula! It's nice to give the ears and face a break during the day. Also, the headset format looks kind of high-tech and cool.
There are just a few issues with this device that kept

My dad has been on oxygen since June due to covid and his ears have gotten absolutely destroyed from the tubing going over them and also combine with his mask and glasses. His poor ears!! I was a little skeptical about this Ill be honest - it just seemed

I found the Oxy Arm very uncomfortable at first particularly wearing it in the traditional manner -with the headband positioned on top of the head from ear to ear. When I placed the headband around the back area of my head-with the cannula adjusted in my

A little pricey
I do like that it's a different from the regular one, but I still think it's very pricey! I'm hoping someone will come up with one that's a little softer and maybe that goes around the neck as opposed to round the head but unfortunately for me I get heada

Relief for the ears!
This was an excellent idea to keep the cannula hose off the ears and the ability to position the prongs so they are not sticking up your nose! It takes some getting accustomed to adjusting the arm so it fits just right, in fact I spend a lot of time adjus

Great idea!
Great idea for those who are forced to use oxygen constantly, and the original look - I have been using this device for about 15 years - thanks!But it is a pity that in spite of numerous critical reviews, you do not improve the design, namely: 1) the plug

Good in principle...less good in practice
The concept is good, but the materials and implementation leaves things to be desired.
1. The adjustment range is not enough...cannot extend the temple pieces far enough.
2. The pads on the temple pieces and the top are not large enough to be sufficient,

It's great - for my purposes...
I was looking for something that would give my ears and nose a rest while still getting O2. This works great for that purpose. I wanted to get O2 "in the vicinity" of my nose - not all the way in. My nose is always running from the assault of ice cold air

Takes a while to adjust and have trouble keeping it in place. I like the idea. Maybe make the head band a little wider and not so stiff, like with a bendable material but not too bendable. I don't like that little extra piece that sticks out beyond the pi

Awesome Product!
As a lady concerned about her appearance, I was thrilled to fine the "headband" cannula option. It takes some adjustment, but is far preferable to the other nasal cannula. Frankly, I didn't want to look like an elderly person, even though at my age of 67

Initially, I had a hard time getting the headset adjusted to fit my Mom properly. After spending a little time and patience in bending the pieces, it now fits and works perfectly!!! I do see where others would give up or where it just wouldn't work for so

Tired of catching my tubing on everything and having my ears "torn off" by the typical bolo style cannula, plus just the constant weight of dragging 50 feet of tubing and sore ears, I thought this may be the solution.I've been using the product for a litt

Great alternative to cannula!
I'm on oxygen therapy due to emphysema, and was looking for an alternative to cannulas around the house and at work. This fits the bill. It's much more comfortable and doesn't make me look as much like a hospital patient. I found it simple to set up - it

I use oxygen 24/7. I use a C-pap with oxygen hooked to it at night, so I don't have the problem others are having trying to sleep with it. The issue I have is that I can't find the disposable cannula Tips to replace the used one. You have to buy a Whole n

Head band with nasal cannula
The head band idea seemed like a good idea. Behind my ears had become raw from being rubbed by the oxygen tubing. I found it pretty much impossible to get the unit adjusted so that the nose inserts were centered in my nose comfortably. I went back to usin

I had fluid bags on my cheeks because of the nasal cannula tubes. The OxyArm Plus gives me the freedom from the nasal cannula. Fits well.

Im somewhat young and get a little embarrassed by the oxygen tubes and hate it being on my face. I ordered this thinking 'oh cool, the tubes wont be on my face.' However, people stare more with the head one than with the regular cannula.

gives you a break
It's a change from having tubes across your cheeks. It's not a stand alone thing, because you can't put your head down with it. However it is a good thing to wear when typing, working, sitting up.

For hearing aids a must.
It took me about 5 min. to set it up for use, yes I can see where some would have problems with it. It does move around some but if adjusted right this is not a problem, I can see where a large amount of hair might be a problem but if placed right that is

Great Product
Initially I had trouble adjusting and thought it would never work, but went on line and looked at pictures. All it takes is bending the hard plastic in the right place so the cannula is under your nostrils. Once adjusted it is comfortable and works great.
