"Easy to Use Blood Pressure Monitor" 2010-06-01
By Burton Faberman (Massachusetts)
I was a little suspicious about purchasing this monitor because of the low price, but after using it was definitely impressed. Its accurate, self inflates, so no unncessary pressure on the arm and stores the readings after use. Would advise anyone who wants a quality product to purchase this.

"Value for the buck" 2010-06-01
By Anurag Taneja (MI,USA)
I got this for my dad,who is a doctor himself.He had trouble monitoring his own Bood pressure with old fashioned Mercury minitors which he firmly believes in.This unit is easy to use,has memory and is easily the cheapest of the lot.The display is big enough to read and readings seem accurate.All in all,a good unit to have

  
"Pretty accurate" 2010-05-31
By Michael S. Tomaszeski
The item is about 5 points off the doctor's reading - but its easy to use, and I think they all suffer from some minor accuracy issues.


"Good product, accurate readings, needs to come with bigger cuff" 2010-05-31
By MagicSkip (Marriottsville, MD)
I took this to my doctor's office to verify the accuracy, and it was accurate to his satisfaction. He hadn't seen this model before, and was impressed by the size and portability of it. He also told me that I needed a bigger cuff (which I then ordered, also from Amazon).

Since the bigger cuff will work just as well as the smaller one, for smaller people, why not just supply the bigger one? Or sell Monitor + small cuff; Monitor + big cuff; as separate products?

Also, the cuff says the bottom should be an inch above the elbow, but it is hard to fit it there. The cuff is so tall that it is up against my shoulder while still down close on the elbow. But it still gives accurate readings.


"Good product" 2010-05-27
By M. Shrall (Valparaiso IN)
Seems accurate - better than the more compact one I had. I like the large read outs and the bag for storage/travel. It might be a little large for travel but given it has an arm cuff instead of something like a finger read, I expect it to take a little more space.
