Hello Frank,
We are sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with the product. It seems that we have not met your expectations. We do spend a great deal of capital on quality control to put out the best product possible. Our products are manufactured here in the US at our headquarters and another facility in Baltimore. We are always humbled to hear about the positive experiences our customers have with the product.
Our large cans state that it contains roughly 200 one second inhalations in the can. The average inhalation lasts for only one second. When the trigger is held down, oxygen will disperse out of the can for approximately 200 seconds. That is how we measure the capacity of our canisters. If you're taking deep breaths that last for more than one second, you will not get 200 "uses" out of the can. It would be difficult to measure how many “uses” a person will get out of a can. It would be like measuring how many ‘gulps’ or ‘sips’ there are in a 16 oz water bottle. Everyone would have different results, and to educate our consumer we found the one second inhalation metric to be the most informative. But we’re always open to suggestions to improve our messaging, so if you have a better way to communicate the usage, we’d really welcome it.
The effects of our products will vary depending on what the consumer is using it for. Some of the top uses for our products are combating altitude sickness, aerobic performance recovery and general health/wellness. If a person does not have low oxygen levels for instance or is not winded, supplemental oxygen doesn’t have much use. (although it has been shown to enable people to hold their breath much longer, and help with memory and focus…) Oxygen can simply help, and we make it available to people with no prescription necessary. Our motto is Help is Here.
It does seem as though you understand that our products can be helpful to people in higher altitudes, so we don’t understand why you’d call us an expensive waste of money. We are very proud of the product we manufacture and even more inspired and motivated by the great reviews we receive and the lives we touch. So it perplexes us when we receive a review such as yours, and we always question the source. If you feel as though there may have been something wrong with your can, or if we can further educate you as to our mission and the benefits of limited quantity supplemental oxygen, you are more than welcome to reach out to us directly. Customer satisfaction is our utmost priority.
From,
The Boost Team
