Infrared Forehead Thermometer for Adults and Infants, FSA HSA Eligible, Touchless iProven Thermometer, 1sec Instant Accurate Readings, 3 in 1 Including Fever Alarm, Silent & Memory Mode

I bought this thermometer because it uses regular batteries and not the button batteries like the oral thermometers use. It works really well and it’s quick, accurate, and the screen brightness makes it easy to read. It’s a great and doesn’t cost much more that the oral ones we used before. I scanned my hand with it and the temperature accuracy was impressive, so it doesn’t have to just be the head.

Very nice and very accurate!

I found the battery compartment hard to open and hard to close. I leave the batteries out when storing it because it is seldom used. However, it is easy to use and gives accurate readings when placed a short distance from the forehead.

We needed a new thermometer. Ours was at least 15 years old. Love the new one. Easier to use. Seems to be more accurate.

This works well (efficient, responsive, easy to use), though it does require the user to follow the instructions to get a good reading. I found myself taking the temperature of everyone and everything (what's the surface temp of my table? My coffee? My desk? the window? My dog? The window, again? Maybe my dog is cooler now?). A good time was had by all.Unfortunately, I cannot be sure if it is accurate because to figure that out I would have had to buy a second one, and--given how I used the first one--I just don't have that much free time.

I LOVE this thing! It seems less sensitive to cold temperatures in my bedroom than other infrared thermometers, so when I check my temp twice a day, I don't have to warm it up first. Many others I've used, have errored "lo" before warming it up because I keep my bedroom at 63. My temperature results don't change minute to minute, like with some devices. Which makes you feel like it's reading accurately. I can't stand when I use the same thermometer twice in ten seconds and it gives dramatically different reads. This doesn't do that at all. Now, because it doesn't go "in" anywhere, (mouth, armpit, butt, etc.), it is slightly susceptible to being effected by room temperature, but like I said, this one is so much less sensitive to room temperature than any others I've used. (If you have a cold room, I recommend keeping it off the floor. I keep mine on a shelf.) Of course that goes for warm areas too, you don't want to leave it in the sun or something. But really, all thermometers should start at a neutral temperature, so this one isn't any different. This is definitely the most accurate thermometer for the infrared type that it is. Mouth ones are probably still the most accurate in my opinion, but this one is just really really good. I would recommend it to anyone. I think this one has deals sometimes too, so bookmark it if you need to. Very solid buy though. Will definitily be considering this manufacture in the future.

Ive had this for about a year and really wanted to like it because I want something that I can monitor my children with while they sleep (when they’re sick). Unfortunately I just can’t trust the readings. From the beginning, the readings varied significantly depending on the precise location you point the probe. For example, I currently have the flu and just now I pointed it at three different places on my forehead, all within an inch of each other and get 98.7, 100.5, and 102.5… which one (if any) do I trust?

Readings are accurate
