TENS machine

[Evangelinee]

Does anyone have any TENS machines they used in labour they can recommend?

I've see a Boots brand maternity TENS machine for £40.
& one in Argos for £30.

This is a very old thread, but if you've landed here while on the hunt for similar recommendations, our guide to the best TENS machine has been recently updated. Based on the tried and tested recommendations of Mumsnetters, the page includes a wide range of options including machines for hire. We hope it's helpful!

I used Elle tens machine last time, was brilliant. Bought a used one off eBay £25 bought new electrodes, then once I had used it sold it on for same price.

I thought I wasn't having any more but I'm now 34 weeks! Just bought a new one of Amazon as they are just under £50.

@MrsHopity Thanks for your response!
Is this the one you purchased?

I also used the Elle one - my sister in law leant it me. It was amazing when I was as in early labour.

And yes ... that one!

I used the Boots one, it was great!

I also used the boots one and it was good. I don't think you can buy new pads for it though so it's like spending £40 on labour (although completely worth it for me, setting 3 was enough to help with the pain!)

Yeah that's the Elle one I used. I liked how it was worn around my neck and there was a boost function for during contractions.

I was originally looking to hire one and this was the one most company's hired, but the cost to buy second hand was the same as hiring.

Good luck!

Thanks everyone!
I'll definitely invest in one!
