5 out of 5 stars The best out of all baby thermometers that I tried!   August 26, 2008
Don't waste your money on other baby thermometers! This is the one that you need to get your baby's temperature really fast. It is very easy to use and your baby won't feel any pain or any discomfort.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent- does the job   May 7, 2008
Simple design. Easy to use. Accurate. I'm a RN and have been very pleased with this product. Glad we didn't waste our money on anything fancy.


5 out of 5 stars The one for you if you are nervous about using a rectal thermo on your kid!   April 14, 2008
My pediatrician recommended a rectal thermometer because it is the most accurate. I was not happy about it until I found this one! Nobody wants to do this to their child but this gets a fast accurate reading and you know for sure you are not hurting them by putting it in too far. Love it!


5 out of 5 stars NICE!   April 13, 2008
Easy and quick! And no worries about hurting my child. After reading all the great reviews about this thermometer I would have to agree with them. Small, uncomplicated, and accurate!

I don't have much to add over the other reviews here - but this thermometer is very fast, seems to be much more accurate (readings are consistent over multiple attempts), and our son doesn't even realize what we're doing. We were initially against the 'rectal' route, but that was mostly based on old prejudices against really long, really slow older models (that we grew up with).

This thermometer has a very short probe (no worries about going too far), and he has yet to even notice what we're doing. And it reads in 10 seconds or less, which is great because you're trying to get a temperature when he's screaming and crying. The armpit model we used before took up to 60 seconds, which is an eternity when he's thrashing and you're trying to hold the probe under his (thrashing) arm.

All in all, works fantastic, it's pretty cheap, and we don't have to dread getting a temp!
