Is this considered a "light" weight stethoscope?

Not sure if it would be considered light weight technically. I had one previously but lost it and I got another one off Amazon because it is a great stethoscope and to me it is light weight . Carrying it around on your neck or pocket won't be an issue. Hope this helps!

It's very light. There is absolutely no comparison with regular cane. I've had both, and I'm sticking with the Hugo!

It is EXTREMELY light - weighs less than a blanket. My daughter likes it - it keeps her warm enough, but does not suffocate her.

No, it's not heavy at all. Pretty lightweight considering the bejewelled back.

Extremely light weight. Especially if you could leave behind the parent monitor (only take the base). The alarm is loud enough to be heard from the next room without the extra monitor. But everything is light weight if you just want to take it all. Just be sure to get an outlet adaptor.

Not sure but it's pretty lightweight in comparison to other scales I've used

Not really a light weight unit at all.Seems to be heavier than others I have used or looked at.I would advise a senior person to look for a lighter unit, since this one can require a good bit of effort to put into or get it out of, an automobile.,

I like this stethoscope. Anything you get with the littman name will be high quality, the difference from the higher priced models is that this is not cardiac specific. It is a general stethoscope. There is no loss of sound identification. You can still hear s1-s2, lung sounds, bruits, murmurs, bowel sounds, and the like.

It is pretty light weight. I bought it for my 6 year old son to wear when riding his go kart. He never complained about it.

No it's not very accurate and I wouldn't say it is light exactly but it's definitely not heavy either

Yes! I questioned the same thing when I received it then after looking at multiple other stethoscopes of nurses and doctors theirs had one too...so I believe so :)

I have not weighed it but it is very light and doesn't weigh more than a few pounds.

no, not heavy at all. i actually don't use this one anywhere because it randomly stopped working but i can't say 100% that it wasn't because of something i did.

I believe that the way it is structured it would hold either. The head of the stethoscope is placed between the ear pieces and then the Velcro holds it in place. I think a smaller head would still stay in place.

No. Not sure what it actually weighs but it is very light. Probably less then a pound.

I used it for running, so it's light weight was critical. It's not very loud though, so if you can handle a bit more weight, a metronome on a smart phone might work better. Most of those metronomes can make different sounds as well whereas this makes only 1 sound. That said, this device worked for my purpose!

No, this device uses only the Accu-Chek lancets, they are thinner than the freestyle lancets.
