 It's a keeper! July 19, 2008
I've had high blood pressure for years and have been looking for the perfect monitor. This is as close to perfect as I've found.
Historically, wrist monitors have been innacurate. Depending on where one placed their wrist (low, high, etc), you would get different readings. This unit demands you place it in the same spot everytime or it won't work. When you have it positioned correctly, you get four little beeps and it proceeds to measure.
When I found that my rheumy and my cardiologist were both using these wrist monitors, it got my attention. So I bought one.
I used it for about a month and brought it to my appointment with my internist. We compared it with the manual cuff and found it to be within 3%.
The other GREAT factor is that my doctor could now scroll through a week or two of my home measurements! I was able to delete one HBP pill because he said "You do have white-coat syndrome, your readings are fine when you're not here."
It is also SO easy to use for anyone. The auto-inflate cuff that I used to use was OK, but difficult to get on and it didn't like a non-regular pulse. Many errors. I've only had one error in six weeks and that was because I moved to swat a fly.
You will be impressed with this device. I promise it will be the best $70 you've spent on you health (A write-off, too!).
Got my unit the first of the week and July 9, 2008
I just love it! I have another Omron with the arm cuff and much prefer this one. Easy to use. Agree with others in that it tells you where it will take the pressure--not necessarily the way the instructions show, but it works consistently. If anything happens to this one I will certainly get another one either like it or a step above. Omron is one of the best made.
 My monitor is about 20 points off top reading and about 20 off bottom readying July 7, 2008
Could I be doing something wrong. It shows my blood pressure in normal to low range but when I went to doctor today, I had the nurse to test her cuff on both arms and I used mine and mine was really off. Is there a way of regulating these.
comfortable and accurate July 5, 2008
I owned a bp monitor with the arm cuff which was very uncomfortable after inflation. This wrist cuff isn't painful and the readings are very accurate.
OMRON: POOR QUALITY AND POOR SERVICE June 30, 2008
I bought this cuff and it no longer worked after only the second time using it. Sent it back to the company along with a check for $5 to cover repair/shipping. They sent it back and it still didn't work. I WOULD NEVER, EVER BUY FROM OMRON AGAIN. Bought a CVS cuff and after several hundred uses, it works just fine. I would give 0 stars for this piece of junk if it were possible.
