GBGreat for the snoring, awful for the user This is the one solution I have found to nightly snoring that is truly effective, however, I have a really difficult time using the product. In order to get the breathing right, I lie awake for at least an hour, sometimes longer. It takes much more than a week to get used to using it, and a month later, it is still not a pleasant experience for me. Yet, since it is effective, I will continue to use the product however begrudgingly.

GBThis product works! but the sticky stuff is uncomfortable My spouse reports a nearly-complete cessation of snoring, even with Theravent Lite. I wake up feeling better rested, too, when I use it. But I have thin, sensitive skin, and the sticky stuff really bothers the skin under my nose. I can't wear it for more than 2 nights in a row, and often find myself ripping it off in the middle of the night because my nose hurts. I don't know what you could do about that, but if it could somehow stick a little more gently, I'd use it every night. People who want to try the product, be sure to read ALL the instructions - for example the part about breathing (at least breathing out) through your mouth until you fall asleep. Once you fall asleep, just as they say, you'll naturally start breathing through your nose and the product will do its job. If you have questions, don't hesitate to contact the company - they're super helpful.

GBTheravent helps prevent snoring over 50% of the time Theravent is helpful however on nights when I have a stuffy nose or when I don't get it placed just right it either makes me miserable (not being able to breathe) or if I loosen it, then my partner hears the snoring. Overall, the product is helpful and many nights it is working. I encourage you to continue working on products that prevent snoring. I tried the "lite" version. I can't see any difference in the screening material however the tape seems to be less and more difficult to use.

GBGood product, not for what I need Having used another, similar, product for sleep apnea - not snoring - I found Theravent for 1/3 the cost. Rather than two small holes (one for each nostril), there is one slightly larger hole in the center of a single unit. I found it more comfortable that the product I use, and thought it helped equally well until, after a week, I found myself exhausted. I returned to the other product, but thought this might be a good product for something other than what I was using it for.

GBDid no good for me! It didn't do any good for me, I still had all the same snoring issues. But the worse part was they sent me two samples for some reason and then I found out I was being billed every 30 days and that I was being billed twice because for some reason they set up 2 accounts for me. Someday I'll learn nothing is free, even free samples.
