Everything that I purchased from UV care are all amazing products. Easy and safe to use. Can't wait for my ultra germ zapper.

This is the UV Care Germ Stick that you want, look no further because this is a real UVC Portable Sanitizer. Just look at the pictures I have attached, as you can see there is a UV-C Test Card, and a UV Test card. As you can see the UV Care Germ stick is illuminating the circle of the UV-C test card proving that this Sanitizer is a real UVC Product. If you look at the UV Card it also illuminates proving that this wand also emits UV Light. UV is divided into three types with reducing wavelengths and increasing energy. They are UVA, UVB and UVC. For UV sterilization, only UVC (100-280 nm) has high enough energy to effectively kill microorganisms. When you are shopping for a UV sterilization product to try in your home or business, make sure that its UV wavelength falls in the range of UVC (100-280 nm). I have bought two other UV Sterilizers and when I tested the lights only the UV card turned purple, the UV-C card did not illuminate green even though one of them said it had a wavelength of 267 nm I did not know the wavelength of the other portable wand I had purchased, needless to say I have returned both of them.. So don't waist your time and money with the other products the UV Care Germ Stick and the UV Care Pocket Sterilizer both have a wavelength of 253.7 nm, and pass the test.. So UV Care USA is where you want to spend your money because you can feel confident that there products are real UV Sterilizers that will work and keep you safe. You can also rely on their customer service, I had been in contact with them about the testing and they actually purchased the same test cards that I got from Amazon and did their own testing before I even ordered the Germ Stick they sent me the results, and their UVC light illuminated the UV-C Card. I was assured that if I was not happy with my purchase I could return it for a full refund. I ordered the Germ Stick and as you can see from the pictures I attached. I now own a real UVC Sanitizer. I am a satisfied customer.

Tried the Avent microwave sanitizer and found that even that was too much hassle to do and maintain, when you have a newborn at home, you want things easy and that's exactly what this dryer AND sanitizer does. I wash all the baby bottles, shake them off put in the UV dryer and sanitizer and done! In 41 minutes you have dry and sanitized bottles and nipples; and pacifiers if you use those. You can store up to 8-12 bottles depending on size, so I really don't mind it takes 41 minutes. You can also select longer drying times if needed. Another great point I found was that there is a maintain feature that dries and then sanitizes every 2 hours, I select this since I am opening and closing the unit to get what I need so this is very handy. The bulb is a Philips UV-C bulb which is replaceable for about $10 if the bulb ever does go out. You know the UV light is on by an translucent indicator on the lid. I would say this is definitely well worth the money if you plan to clean and store multiple bottles for use; and great if you're a germaphobe like I am so the maintain feature is great. You are able to select 4 different modes: Auto (dry and sanitize 41 mins); Sanitize (11 mins); dry (41 mins); and Maintain (dry first, sanitize every 2 hours). Bottles come out dry at the lowest setting of 41 mins - 30 mins dry time, 11 mins sanitize time.

A side note:
There is a manufacturing plastic smell when you first open the unit, the instructions address this and it says to wipe down the inside, and either put peeled ginger or sliced lemon and run a cycle to get rid of the manufacturing smell. I used limes and this worked fine after two cycles. So if you do purchase this, make sure you have some ginger, lemon, or limes on hand to get rid of the smell.

Mine just arrived today it was a little bit late would've loved to use it on my trip to sanitize everything. However I live in Hawaii so things usually Do arrive late. I find it really easy to use and small enough you can take with you in your purse or pocket I would say a must buy and I love that it comes with instructions and detailed information about how many seconds you need to kill different types of bacteria and viruses.

With what is going on today's rather be safe then sorry I find it very useful

I use it at home and at work.

Purchased in spring 2019 during COVID-19 pandemic. As a healthcare provider, I wanted to use this to clean my cell phone. Perhaps a bit overboard but certainly didn�t seem to hurt. It is simple to use, however sanitizing multiple cell phones at the same time was a bit of a challenge.

Had this particular uv-c wand tested, and it is real. Probably the best deal for an authentic uv-c wand that you'll find

I love this! I always hated putting bottles In the dishwasher, this sanitizes and dries with no issue

Very easy to use and has enough room to fit your keys, phone, wallet, sunglasses and face mask for a quick 11 minute sterilization when you get home. Works great for bottles too, but COVID-19 shifted what we use it for. Lightbulb says it is good for several years.

Plenty of room inside. Expecting granddaughter soon so this will get double use :-)

Got the product in no time at all. It feels sturdy and easy to use, do not need instructions. The UV light seems strong, there is no way to know the effectiveness. There are people complained about no batteries included, it was written in the description. I will use it now at home for sterization and will also use it for travel.Overall I like it.

When traveling or just when I feel like my things need cleaning. You can smell the ozone (which you shouldn't) but that way you know it's doing its job.

Absolutely love this sanitizer. We use it mainly for bottles, but has also been good for our phones, remotes, etc. Especially in uncertain times with the spread of sickness, it gives me peace of mind.

good hygiene practice for kids
