The thermometer is really easy to use, there's only one button!


Our braun thermometer we'd had for about 10 years finally broke.

Price


Plus it adds to the overall cost of using this device.


Everyone has them but amazon has it for the best price!


So this is just to let you know, yes you can trust it and buy it- even if its so cheap.


It was on sale and cost just a bit more than a standard oral thermometer and i needed something that was safe to use with a baby.

Packaging/appearance


This item came in a crushed box,barelt taped together.


It comes with a box of 20, but you have to have one on for it to work, so just a heads up.


Just pop on the lens cover and put it in the ear, press the button and you're done!

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It’s not uncommon for one ear to read higher than the other but i have found the average readings similar to what we get with our other thermometer


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I do wish the readout screen had a backlight option so you could read it in the dark but i didn’t feel it necessary to pay significantly more for a more advanced model just for that one feature


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I don’t care for the little hygiene shields i think they are called lenses or filters that are required for use


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They sometimes pop off and using a fresh one every time feels really wasteful


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If you could just sanitize this between uses in the same way as an oral thermometer instead of dealing with those pesky plastic shields it would have 5 stars


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It does seem to be accurate and and an inaccurate thermometer or any other measuring device isnt worth having
