 easy and pain free! (for both me and the kids) October 21, 2007

I received this item as a baby shower gift with my first child, who is now 3. I didn't use it until she was over 1 because my first pediatrician told me it wasn't reliable. (My current ped says that it is) By the time my poor baby was one she had already had over 20 ear infections. So needless to say, ear thermometers were not pleasant. It would take 4 people to hold her down at the doctor's office to get a reading.
Once I started using this thermometer it was so easy! It did take a bit of practice to make sure that you are going at the right speed (not too fast!) and not letting the thermometer leave the forehead. My daughter loves it and can now do it to herself, and us, and the dog (LOL).
And now that I know I can use it on my newborn baby too it is a Godsend! I hated taking the rectal temps, probably just as much as the kids did.
My only complaint is that the temps seem to vary by about .1-.5 degrees. But I suppose that even oral thermometers do that too. With my little guy, if the fever is elevated I check rectally, just to be accurate if I have to bring him in to the doctor's office. But is nice to have a gauge without having to use the rectal one all the time.
We have had ours 3 years now, and it is still ticking! Same battery and all! And boy, it has seen some rough treatment too (think 3 year olds!).

WOW, these things are really slick. I was a little skeptical at first but its nice to be able to take a temperature with out the fuss. I checked several out and this one model had good reviews.

Ever since I received the thermometer, we have been using it like crazy. Having 6 kids, it comes in handy. And it works great! I have had no problems with it at all. We just love it!!!

So far I love this thermometer. It's really nice that I don't have to bother my children's ears like I used to. The first time I used it on my 9 year old, he said,"..hey, how'd you do that?" I've used it several times and it works great!

This product is great to use but I am most impressed by their customer service. I e-mailed the company about an issue and they sent out a brand new thermometer with a pre-paid return label for my old one. I had not expected this at all and I am going to recommend this product to others even more so now.
