Thermometer for Adults and Kids, No-Touch Forehead Thermometer with Object Mode Function,Fever Alert and 32 Set Memory Recall,Instant Accurate Reading Digital Baby Thermometer for Fever

Easy read, works good

This thermometer was so easy to set up and also came with 2 batteries. It is also very easy to use, no need for directions. I use to have a forehead one where you would slide it across but now my baby loves this and it is not a fight to take his temperature.

This is great for quick readings during clinical and to take multiple temperatures fast and without much personal contact. Overall I do love this for the ease, but when I need good accurate measurements I use an oral thermometer. This is a good overall range thermometer and does the job well for less serious measurements. 4 stars. lightweight. good screen. readable. fast results. not as accurate as oral thermometers.

This little thing is very easy to use, though it did take a few minutes to figure it out because I am one of those people who can't seem to read instructions. But it is pretty straight forward, easy to read, and does a very quick temperature scan. Really quick. Like 1 second. It also can tell you the temp in your room which is kind of amazing. I like it very much and think it is a good value for the money.

I bought this and right out of the box, it seemed pretty easy to use. I did find it to be someone inaccurate at first with it being skewed 1 degree too low. I read the directions that came with it and found that there is a way to adjust it so that it is more accurate. I was able to adjust it pretty easily, so now it works great.The whole reason I bought this was because I was sick of trying to find a good place to put the older digital monitor where it tracked the temperature accurately. Even if it did it accurately, sometimes it would take a couple of minutes of sitting there holding it. With this thermometer, the feedback is immediate and easy - just point it right at the forehead, hold the button down for a second or so, and its done. Easy as that!

I love that it is easy to use and noninvasive.

Update: Changed to three stars. I eventually found the section in the little booklet how to operate it and through trial and error figured it out. Still a pain though because it always reads "Lo" when I turn it on.Original: The instruction book is terrible. Walks through all the technical aspects and modes to use but there isn't a "here's how to operate it" section. When turned on it reads "Lo". So I changed the batteries and still says "Lo" even though the battery indicator shows fully charged batteries. I press scan and wipe across my forehead but can't tell if its doing anything. There's no beep, when you press the mode and then press scan it doesn't clear the previous info on the screen, there's no beep, there's no change to the screen indication its doing anything so I have no idea if it's ready or not. I scan and the previous info is still on the screen. Did it work? I have no idea.

This thermometer always shows a 97.something unless something is really hot. My 6 week old ended up in the hospital with a fever, coded, and was successfully resuscitated. I noticed my baby felt hot on Friday, but this thermometer said he was fine. Saturday he’s not acting himself, but still this thermometer says he’s okay. By the end of the day Saturday I couldn’t ignore how hot he was and did a rectal temperature, he was 101.5. So I took him to the ER immediately. Sunday night he ended up flat lining for a second due to the fever. Please do not buy this. My son was successfully resuscitated but anything could have happened. If I had known on Friday and taken him in to get treated before it was too bad, I whole heartedly believe things would not have been so bad. I followed all the directions with this when I used it, made sure there was no draft, and still would get the normal temp. If you have a newborn just invest in an ear thermometer or rectal thermometer. I pray this never happens to any other parents.
