Works as expected

I am happy with this product. We like that the unit came with 2 different size cuffs too.

Worthless & unreliable
»
I bought this product after reading all the great reviews on Amazon. I was totally disappointed and wish I never bought the darned thing.
When the cuff inflates it hurts my arm. I tried the larger cuff and the same thing happened. I'm a normal sized individual.
Secondly, I would measure my blood pressure a couple times over a period of a few minutes while relaxing (per the instructions). Unfortunately, one measurement would be 120/80 the next 140/95. So either my blood pressure is normal or I'm severely hypertensive? That clears things up...
Ironically this unit is probably raising my blood pressure.
Instead of paying $50+ for this unit go out and buy yourself some fruit & vegetables or a gym membership. I'm not sure if blood pressure is supposed to go all over the place, but this unit was "challenging" as I'm not sure which reading, if any, was accurate.

Good Product

The blood pressure machine is easy to use and accurate. Well worth the money.

I bought this product for my husband who is going thru an EMT course. His instrutor said it was a good product and would recommend it. He "practices" my and my Mum's blood pressure every night and it is consitant.

Blood Pressure went up a little
»
The blood pressure cuff works well, it is compact and seems to be accurate. We like the fact that it's automatic.
The only problem we had was trying to get the arrow aligned and in the right place. My husband said the struggle, to get the cuff onto his arm, then loosen the velcro and try to line it up, took so long that he felt he would raise his blood pressure in the process. Of course, it didn't and became easier with practice.
