[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had SO much trouble lately with finding a thermometer that is accurate. This one seems to work the best out of the past 4-5 we have bought. It's quick and easy to use. It has come in handy with our 18 month old during this sick season.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this because cold and flu season was coming up and wanted to be prepared. I thought my kids would be the ones getting sick but it ended up being my husband and I! This thermometer was super easy to store, use, and read. Sure beats the old ones that are confusing or difficult to set up.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this because I wanted to see how the color feature worked. You just put the thermometer under your tongue, and when it has taken your temperature the number will be displayed as well as a color. If it's green, your temperature is fine, if it's yellow, you have a slight fever and if it's red, you have a high fever. This really helps my kids visually see how their fever is.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thermometers are good to have handy with a toddler running around. Snotty noses and fevers are pretty common this time of year. I love that this one lights up a different color depending on the temperature. Great for husbands who might help check temp but not remember number but will a color. It also came with a few disposable sleeves to use to help from spreading germs or having to clean tip as much. Simple to use. Turn on and press button. It takes a little longer than an ear thermometer but still quicker than most under the tongue models. Overall a good thermometer to have.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had so many thermometers over the years for my daughter, this has to be in the top 3. It seems to be pretty accurate and the 3 colors it lights up to let you know if you have a fever or not is very convenient. I prefer this over my standard thermometer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the ease of this product. The fact that there's a large screen is very convenient. I also like that the display is color coded based on the temperature (green, yellow or red). Can't forget to mention that it gives a reading very quickly vs many others I've tried. Although I've only used it under the tongue, i read that temps can also be taken underarm or rectal. Overall this is a great product to have on hand.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that the thermometer has disposable covers. Used to just wipe it with alcohol but I think this is better to not pass on germs when a person is sick. It is faster than other ones I have used in the past. I would recommend it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I got this my youngest grand daughter was not feeling well. So, I took this out of the package and took her temperature. It was very easy to use and easy to read. Definitely a must for cold and flu season especially if you have small children.
