For thise that dont want to read heres the results:
Results
The DeChoker resulted in gross injury to the tongue and failed to remove the obstruction in all trials. LifeVac was successful in removing the barium‐moistened saltines but failed to remove all other foreign bodies. Both devices applied significant pressure to the tongue.
i see people downvoting others, but the above is a medical study on two commonly available choking devices, including the one which this deal is for. seems a bit like snake oil to me as well

The mother and nanny left baby in a high chair while they frantically searched upstairs for a missing package. I was reading a paper when I realized the baby across the room and in back was quiet. I looked behind me and the baby was blue. She was in distress but couldn't make any sounds. I ran over and tipped her head down - gave her a whack on the back. After third whack a glob of potato chips came out and baby gasped into a cry. The glob was like glue or paste.
If people have nanny's and such, there needs to be a list of things NOT to let a baby eat . People know about dangers of hot dogs but things like chips or crackers or even bread can get like paste.
It never occurred to me to use Heimlich on such a small body.

The maneuver is to place them on your forearm, support their head/neck with your hand. Tilt them at a downward angle, then strike them in the back with the palm of your hand. With enough force you would reasonably need to dislodge something.

1. Is that Vicente del Bosque in the picture in Amazon?
2. Why all those 5 star reviews saying they've never used the product?
For the record, the FDA says this is a safe and effective device. Are you disagreeing with our public health authority? I'll wait.
while there are anecdotes to support its use, randomized trials will never occur and it will be impossible to prove that's its better or worse than normal anti-choking methods.
