   Incredible Little Item, May 28, 2005

   Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?)

   I am a nurse. I saw one of these blood pressure cuffs being used by another nurse, and asked her about it, then, promptly ordered one for myself. At that time it was 100.00, through a cnursing catalogue. I work in a busy rehab center where I take atleast 8-20 blood pressures daily. What my patients say about this is, “Wow, it didn’t tighten my arm at all.” “Didn’t hurt a bit.” “I’ve never seen one like it.”
   A doctor and myself measured readings done manually and readings done by this little machine, and found either way to be only a couple of numbers different.
   My mom loves it, and we found the same model on Amazon for alot cheaper than 100.00. I have had poor experiences with another wrist blood pressure monitor that was 39.99. This little Omron is quick, easy, and correct.
   Some of it’s features: If you move your arm while you take the blood pressure, it shows an E for error. The batteries last about three motnhs. On this model, there is no battery indicator. It stores over 10 blood pressure readings. It also measures the pulse. There’s no date or time stamp, but I didn’t have good luck with the model with that feature.
   To me, every house should have one of these cuffs, not the cheaper priced cuffs that donot work. I’ve used it at home and at work consistently, and I will buy the exact same cuff again. I hope Omron doesn’t stop making them.

   Blood Pressure Cuff, November 3, 2006

   This is a great product. My stepfather has developed very thin skin as he has gotten older and has to have his BP taken frequently every day. The regular arm cuff has caused quite a bit of damage to his arm. This cuff is around the wrist where the skin is a little thicker, thus saving his skin and not having to worry about infections to his upper arm. Also love the large digits on the screen. He is much happier and more willing to have his BP taken now. Thank you, Omron!

   Great Unit.., July 20, 2006

   I have been using Omron blood pressure wrist monitors for a few years now.
   I found this particlar one to be of excellent value and a great Workhorse.
   This one you can use in bed and get a true reading just by elevating your arm by your side to heart level.
   It reads within a Few units up or down as compared to a doctors office unit.(very accurate)
   Very close if not right on. A bit noisy but a fine instrament..
