works great. has its own hard plastic case to keep it clean. display is large enough to read without reading glasses. reasonably priced now, change in federal tariff my effect higher price.
Thermometer was not accurate and was reading low temps for multiple people in the house. Purchased another brand that was accurate and this one was thrown in the trash. Spend a few more dollars on the name brand and save yourself the trouble!!
Marked my daughter at 107! Double checked with two other thermometers and her temperature was actually at 97-98. I thought it was a glitch at first but I tried it more than once and under each arm. Inconsistent results, DO NOT RECOMMEND
I did the work for you to test this thermometer: Within a 15 minute period at night when I was not sick I took am Underarm, Oral, and Rectal temperature in this order: Underarm: 95.2 F Oral: 96.8 F Rectal: 97.7 F The instructions say that you will get this variance on the difference methods of taking your temperature. So the only way to know if you have a fever is to always use one of the methods. Log your temp a few times normal. Then when you think you have a fever, see what the difference is. Now, Rectal is the most accurate method. I would not use this thermometer for Underarm--it's too far off. Do oral or rectal. Rectal temp may not seem convenient but is very easy and painless and you can do it to yourself or someone else. Basically you just turn the unit on until the "F" flashes ready in a few seconds. Apply just a dab of KY Jelly to the tip--just a little and insert it 1 inch. You won't even feel it. In about 30 seconds it beeps and you have an very accurate temperature. I also tested Rectal without any Jelly and it was fine to--you are only inserting it 1 inch and the instructions also say 1 inch. In sum, not a bad thermometer, but get to know what is normal for you first.
works great it even came with little paper slides to put the tip in. I assume that's for if you're really sick and have to keep using it you just stored in one of these things instead of keep cleaning it with alcohol I don't know they all work until they don't LOL it was a good price
