The reading is not as accurate as the oral/underam/rectal thermometer, but given that it is next to impossilble to hold my one year old down long enough to get his underarm temperature reading I found the Braun Thermoscan to be really usefull.
One thing to keep in mind is that the readings vary in a range of .5 degrees over a couple of readings. So I tend to average it out and if the temperature is at or over a 100, I also double check with the underarm thermometer. It's a very convient device and you can take your childs temparature when they are sleeping or distracted. The only problem is that the readings are not very consistent. i.e if you check your childs temperature a number of times, the readings you get will have a range of about .5 degres.

I have owned this only for a month or so. No problems using it, I found it easy to use. Seems accurate and consistent. The case is really nice and helps protect from dust. I think the price is on the high end and therfore 4 stars

I purchased this thermometer based on recommendations from two friends. I had difficulty taking the temps of my six month old by myself as you have to pull their ear slighly up and back in order to take an accurate temp. I had to try it several times with the help of my husband to get the hang of it. I like how a beeping sound is made once the temp has been recorded. It also has a memory feature have not used yet. One more thing ~ I accidently dropped it in the kitchen sink (in a bowl of soapy water). I picked it up quickly and set it on the counter. After two days, it had dried out and is working normally again.

This is an accurate and easy to use electronic thermometer. It's surprisingly bulky though, and I wish someone had told me that it was in my ear that I had to insert it.

I am very impressed with this thermoscan. I have a 22 month old son and taking his temperature before was a nightmare. Now within seconds I have an accurate reading. It works well for children and adults. The only thing that takes some practice is the positioning in the ear so that you get accurate temperature readings.
