Anyone who has a snoring problem - and often members of their family - will tell you how desparate they can get to find a solution. While snoring itself isn't a health condition, it can be a symptom of many illnesses. It can lead to lack of sleep, stress and accidents, not to mention its effect on relationships.

The search for a cure has led to many different devices that claim to help you stop snoring. Some of these are more effective than others. Because there are multiple causes for snoring, there's no single device or cure that will work for everyone.

Before buying any anti-snoring device, do your research. If you understand what's causing your snoring, you'll be able to tell whether a particular device is going to work for you or not. Look for recommendations from registered doctors, testimonials from other people using the device and make sure there's a money-back guarantee.

Double-check the safety features of any device you're considering. If it includes any warnings or contra-indications, take heed and make sure the product is going to be safe for you to use.

You're going to be sleeping while you're using the device so you need to be sure there are no safety concerns.

Many devices are sold over the internet, but if at all possible find a store where you can actually touch and feel one. You're going to be wearing this thing for a number of hours, so you need to be sure you'll be comfortable with it.

Check the design and quality - does it seem like it's well made and will work as advertised? When you roll over in your sleep, will it roll with you?

What about the cost - is it affordable? If the price is high, does the manufacturer offer a guarantee of some sort? How much time will you have to try it out and refund it if is doesn't work for you?

If you have a snoring problem, it can be tempting to try the latest and greatest device but you can waste a lot of money without taking the time and effort to check them out beforehand. Remember, the website/email/store that is selling it to you isn't always the most unbiased source of information!
