Our top tips when choosing a used scanner

Buying a used machine presents a fantastic opportunity to save hundreds – sometimes thousands – of dollars. Below are our golden rules for making this a success.

(1) Buy from an established, reputable company

A lot of people understandably offload their used systems on marketplaces and social media, but from a buyer’s point of view, this is rarely a wise investment as the machine is going to come with no warranty and no support. You will also never know the machine’s full history – it may have already changed hands several times before you, which the seller is unlikely to disclose.

As tempting as it may be to help someone out who needs the money, for most people, an ultrasound scanner is a serious investment, and it’s simply not worth the risk. We’ve talked to so many distraught people who have blown their savings on a scanner that they did not have the expertise to realize was faulty at the time, or that develops a fault a few months after purchase. It’s heart-wrenching, and the worst possible way to start your journey into the world of ultrasound.

We have been in business since 2010, and we’ve seen it all. As a family-run company, we are lucky enough to get to know most of our customers personally (we’re based in London, but we fly to North America several times per year). We stand by our equipment, literally. It’s never worth it to us to leave a customer unhappy; and as our entire business has been built on word-of-mouth recommendation, we know that every single customer is precious.

(2) Buy from a company with the expertise to support you – for life

When you buy from a private seller or a general electronics reseller, you’ll pay almost the same price as from us, yet receive none of the support.

We offer free support via Zoom to familiarize you with your new system, and are on hand for life. If it’s been a while since you’ve scanned and you need a refresher, no problem – just ask. Our most successful ultrasound users are in touch with us every 1-2 months for a second opinion on a scan, a technical question, or to share an interesting finding. Unless you’re a veterinarian working in a large imaging department with expert mentorship on hand, having access to qualified, experienced experts is essential to getting the most out of your machine.

(3) Buy with warranty

Ultrasound machines are electronics, and even the best electronics can go wrong. We only stock the most reliable brands, and machines we have thoroughly tested and inspected, and that is why we are happy to provide a warranty for everything that we sell. If you purchase from an individual or a company that does not specialize in ultrasound and cannot provide a warranty, that machine could go wrong tomorrow and the repair cost will fall upon you.

Most people do not realize that majority of the value of an ultrasound system is in the probe, and do not check the quality of the probe thoroughly enough when buying a used machine. Probes degrade with use, and we use a specialized ultrasound phantom to check their resolution and compare it to the gold standard for that machine type, only selling probes with performance well within the diagnostic range.
