Review on PhysiciansCare 24 202 Mountable Station Single by Tyler Cooley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Inexpensive and cheap but does the job - UPDATED 2018

I needed a few of these to replace some of the older brands which after about 8 years were starting to fall apart. They do the job but I expect I'll have to replace them sooner rather than later. UPDATE 2016: As expected, after taking them out a few times, the bottles start to fall out and the friction wears off. The actual bottles aren't that great. In a real eyewash emergency, it will be very difficult to open them. First you need to open the plastic shrink wrap on the cap, then open the cap, then find a separate eyecup and attach it to the bottle. This year I will replace 4 pieces. I think I will still buy this item again because of the price. UPDATE 2018: Good thing they're just as cheap because they tear if you look at them the wrong way. The labels faded and peeled off so quickly that I started making my own stick-on labels. I buy a few every year to replace the worst ones and it's really just a way to keep fit at the lowest possible price. Pros: - Nice bright color, makes it stand out in the workplace - Works with most 32oz eyewash. Bottles, even not the same brand - Much cheaper than other eyewash stations Cons: - Easy to damage. The plastic is very thin (I'd say thinner than a credit card and not as strong) and cracks with relatively little pressure - Inconsistent quality (I ordered several of these and 2 of them were missing mounting screws, 1 had its edge badly deformed, and 1 of these had a crack in the bottle which caused all the solution to spill out during shipping.) - Holds the bottle just by friction. For this reason, and also because of the weak plastic, I believe that after a few uses it no longer holds the bottles securely. Tags fade VERY quickly in the sun. Verdict: Cheap and easy to break, but gets the job done for little money and meets work safety requirements.
