The patented nasal dilator from BestBreathe offers a very good and quick solution to congested airways at night. It enables comfortable breathing without the use of chemical nasal sprays or medication by widening the nasal entrance area. The nasal dilator is available in several sizes so that it can be anatomically customised. The product is versatile and can be used both during sleep and sporting activities. The BestBreathe nasal dilator is also very discreet and comes with a practical storage box . One small disadvantage, however, is that although the instructions for use are very detailed, there are many spelling and grammatical errors .

The product arrived for our test in a neutral shipping box, which was intact and easy to open. Inside the shipping box, the product was in an attractive product box that immediately made a respectable impression. The packaging featured the product name, illustrations and the benefits of the product. The package contained two nasal dilators wrapped in plastic and a practical storage box. All components were in perfect order and had no defects. However, there was one small drawback: the very detailed and multilingual instructions for use unfortunately contain many spelling and grammatical errors.

The nasal dilator from BestBreathe offers an ideal fit and is barely noticeable during use. Thanks to the different sizes, it can be customised, which further increases comfort.

The nasal dilator remains stable during all activities and requires no readjustment, which emphasises its user-friendliness . Cleaning is also straightforward; the product was cleaned very easily according to the instructions for use and was completely clean so that it can be reused hygienically and safely.

At the time of testing, the product was not yet officially listed on Amazon. Therefore, no other reviews are available, so this point is neglected in the evaluation.
Prices of up to €17.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €8.99 . The BestBreathe® nasal dilator is therefore currently in the middle price segment with a price of €12.38. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
