Very accurate - is you know what you are doing
0/5 by: Epinions Author imgoophy - People that state it is inaccurate did not follow they proper way to register it. My son gets sick often and I'd take his temp to tell the doctor when I call. When he goes into the office and it was taken it was within .2 degrees - yes point two degrees...

Both Toddler and I Agree
by: Epinions Author blu_canary - I've now run the complete gamut of temperature taking devices with my daughter. Temporal is the only way to go. I've tested it on myself numerous times, followed up with an oral temperature to double check it and the Exergen has never been more than a...

Helped me keep a cool head during my latest bout with the flu
by: Epinions Author knotheadusc - It's Monday morning and I'm feeling relatively fine. A week ago today, I couldn't say the same thing. Seven days ago, I was knocked flat on my back with a classic case of the flu. Until last week, I hadn't had the flu in years. I had forgotten...

I Feel My Temperature Rising
by: Epinions Author snowflake224 - Background: A couple years ago we bought a CVS brand thermometer. Lately the temperature has been giving readings such as 94.5 degrees. If that reading were true, I wouldn’t be able to type this review. Recently during a visit to Brook’s...

useless product!
by: Epinions Author soblessed - This thermometer has not given me a temp higher than 96 degrees when I know my child was running a fever. We checked everyone in our house at various times and it gave readings from 94-97 degrees. Do not waste your time or money buying this...

Stem is too long
by: Epinions Author deltabwa - The stem on this pacifier is too long. She was gagging on it and ended up with a reading of 96 degrees. I had to hold it in her mouth trying not to gag her and it took 4 minutes to get a...

So easy to use ~ the Timex Healthcare Accu-Curve Digital Thermometer
by: Epinions Author dramastef - A few nights ago, my four-year-old son spiked a fever. One of those scary-hot, put him in a lukewarm bath kinds of fevers. It was at that moment I realized that I hadn’t had a need for a thermometer for over three years and I couldn’t find the...

NOT THRILLED... I like another brand Better!
by: Epinions Author bablondie25 - This is my second ear thermometer that I have owned over the past 10 years. My story: With my daughter (now 11), I found it difficult to tell how hot she was when she got sick. As any parent would know, it's very scary to have a hot child without...

Exergen Temporal Scanner - the non-invasive thermometer
by: Epinions Author mjtriplett - As a fairly new mom, one of the things I hate most is taking my son's temperature. He always feels a little hot when he's got a cold or is teething, so lately I felt as though I'd had to do this dirty (literally when taken rectally) deed all too often...

Buy it if you like inaccuracy!
by: Epinions Author kimmygeswein - Wow, am I ever disappointed! I picked up this thermometer when my daughters had mono this spring. After fighting my 2 year old over and over to sit still while I used the underarm thermometer, I bought this in desperation. It seemed like the perfect...

Very inaccurate
by: Epinions Author epinion831 - This thermometer always reads considerably higher than my other two, a BD and an older Vicks. Sometimes the difference is up to a degree. I'm a chemotherapy patient and its very important for me to be able to get accurate temperature readings and I...

Pleased with My First Digital Scale
by: Epinions Author outdoorsbound - I didn't think much of this scale when I bought it Wal-Mart around 2003 other than it was an inexpensive digital scale. Little did I know that 3 years later it would still be operating reliably and to my satisfaction. I'll get slight inconsistencies but...

Very fast, but quite inaccurate
by: Epinions Author mcjs710 - I bought this thermometer in hopes of one that would quickly take the temperature of a very wiggly toddler. It is very quick, only taking about 10 seconds for an underarm reading. It did detect that my daughter had a fever. However, when I tested the...

Great for about a year!
by: Epinions Author serenasr - I really liked this scale. It was pretty cheap and relatively accurate. I thought that it was a great purchase. The problem is that it didn't last very long. I am not a person who weighs myself often and that made no difference. I would have...

Perfect for People Weighing 104 Pounds!
by: Epinions Author chelledun - I thought maybe no one would want to buy me the scale that Mr_Chelledun and I registered for before our wedding. As it turned out, through a bizarre Target.com glitch, I ended up with TWO Taylor Lithium Electronic Glass Scales. I did return one,...

Worth the expense!
by: Epinions Author entangledhere - I received my new Tanita scale today. The first thing I noticed was how absolutely easy it was to use! I had the thing programmed in about five minutes! This was a relief and a pleasant surprise. Secondly, the weight is very accurate. I'm not sure...

WW Scale - not for me
by: Epinions Author micopgirl - I bought this scale and loved the price. I thought it was a very good deal. I guess you get what you pay for. When I stepped on the scale first thing in the morning I received one reading - then when I stepped on it about 30 minutes later the reading...

I s digital that great? NO.
by: Epinions Author erin38018 - Sunbeam Healthometer Digital Scale HDR900DQ-01. Price: affordable, around $20 Accuracy: Not so accurate, off by around half a pound inconsistently. If you stand on it and come back in 5 minutes the reading may be different. For this reason, I do...

Worked... for a while
by: Epinions Author jbs24 - My scale looked slightly different than the picture, but basically the same features. After about 6 months, it no longer works and can't even measure weight. When working, the fat calculation (based on height, waist, neck size and gender) was very...

A Really Good Ear Thermometer
by: Epinions Author laplap - I bought this thermometer while my 14 month old was sick. When she was younger, I did rectal temperatures. But she wasn't allowing that anymore. As a Registered Nurse, I know that rectal temperature is preferred but I needed another option. I am...
