 Easy to use September 10, 2008
It was easy to set up and use. I like the idea that it stores your readings and you can do this with two people.
 After three days - only errors September 8, 2008
I am returning the product as it only worked for three days. After that, every time I tried to take a reading, I got the big "E". Also, it seemed to read extrememly high. My husband has normal blood pressure and when we tried it on him, it came back 178/121. Uh, no way! That surely doesn't help when I am trying to monitor mine to be sure it doesn't go too low or too high. The doc just started me on medication three weeks ago. I found that to get a three reading average, by the time I was able to get all three readings I was so frustrated, my pressure was going through the roof! Of course that could have to do with the artificially high readings it was returning anyway. lol It was very easy to use, but ease isn't going to be much good if it isn't accurate. I'm looking for another brand even if it costs me a little more.
Easy to use; pretty accurate; quality product. September 8, 2008

I have used this BP monitor for a while and feel it was a good purchase. I did a lot of review reading before choosing one as I was worried about it being grossly inaccurate. I just had a follow-up doctor's visit and he checked it against his steth readings....accurate to within 1-2 points on three separate readings. Thats good enough for me! Be careful when choosing models as some of them have smaller cuffs which may not fit your arm properly.
Great product September 6, 2008
Blood pressure machine worked perfecr right out of the box. Easy to use. I would buy again
 Omron HEM-780N3 - 8 to 12 higher reading September 6, 2008
2 out of 3 found this comment useful.
This BPM is convenient to use, does quick measurements and provides comfortable pressure while during the measurement. However, compared to a manual reading with a sphygmanometer, the HEM-780N3 is around 8 to 12 mercury higher. I called technical support to inquire if they can tell me how to calibrate the reading but they gave me a scripted answer of how their manufacturing uses advanced calibration and that their machine is accurate. Well, the one I received was not accurate. I have compared it with another Omron and CVS BPMs and with a sphygmanometer. If not for the accuracy, this would have been a very good BPM.
