Thank you for your feedback Linda which I've forwarded to our Customer Service team who will resolve this for you, now that they are aware.
Replacement stickers have been sent out immediately to you and we apologise that they were missing. The stickers are placed within the user manual and can become mislaid when the instructions are unfolded.
For how to use the device, please refer to the user manual included.
Here's a quick training protocol for using Respiron.
- Body position: you can train while sitting down or standing up.
- Training: hold your device and forcefully INHALE through the mouthpiece.
- Goal: to make the three coloured balls float.
- Training duration: try to repeat this a few times.
Repeating this breathing exercise daily is perfect for pulmonary rehabilitation and physiotherapy.
Respiron has 4 levels of resistance: 0 (easy); 1 (average); 2 (difficult) and 3 (very difficult). You should start at level 0 and advance to the next level when the exercise no longer challenges you.

COPD
I found it difficult for me but hope to improve as the weeks go by. I have COPD so am not expecting much improvement yet.

Thank you for your review, Rita. Good work on embarking on your training. Remember that whatever you manage to do, you will be making a difference. And it will be a challenge for someone with COPD, so I'd suggest starting on level 0 to begin with.

As the first Respiron that I ordered and received the week before, this second one, ordered for a granddaughter, was again quickly packed and delivered.

Do not order from this site
I’m very disappointed as I have not received the product. Pretty sure that this site is a scam. It’s been a few weeks since ordering and there’s no status update or dispatch or tracking information. Extremely frustrated

Hi Paul, please be assured that we are a genuine company, with a genuine interest in caring for our customers, and I have therefore investigated this for you.
The order that you placed on the 26th of November was dispatched the very next day via Royal Mail, on the 27th of November. We sent you an email with the tracking details for your order on the 27th of November (please check your spam/junk folder if you cannot see it in your Inbox), but we've just checked that for you, and your parcel hasn't moved from the Romford Mail Office since the 28th of November. Royal Mail simply state on your tracking, that your parcel is being sent to your local delivery office. Although the hold-up is with Royal Mail, I will ask our Customer Service team to follow this up with you.
I understand from your email to our Customer Service team who contacted Royal Mail for you, that the second model we shipped out to you as a gesture of goodwill has been received by you, along with the first one that was showing as not moving at Royal Mail in Romford. It seems that Royal Mail is not able to meet their performance targets at the moment, which is why you didn't receive your order immediately from them. However, I see the substitute order we sent to you has arrived quickly, and we hope that now you're happy with your order.

Hello Robert, I've checked your order details as we are quick to process orders, so this was unusual to see. I did find that your order was placed on the 25th of November and dispatched on the 27th of November. I can also see that tracking details were provided on the 27th too, so please double-check the Royal Mail tracking.

Poorly made and tube difficult to attach. Great if you can raise the balls but I don’t have enough puff.

Thank you for your feedback, Katryn. We're sorry to hear that you feel the £12.99 device feels poorly made. It is, however, effective, and so we were concerned to read of your disappointment when using it.
From what you've described here, it sounds as though you may be exhaling and blowing out (puffing) through the device, as opposed to inhaling and breathing in through the device, as intended.
Here's a quick training protocol for using Respiron.
- Body position: you can train while sitting down or standing up.
- Training: hold your device and forcefully INHALE through the mouthpiece.
- Goal: to make the three coloured balls float.
- Training duration: try to repeat this a few times.
We hope this helps, Katryn.
Easy ordering and prompt delivery
