A Nicely Featured Thermometer January 6, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I like this thermometer. It does exactly what I expect it to, and the features are thoughtful and work well: it stops beeping if it gets moved to the wrong place or its reading is disrupted, and I like the light and how it displays the last temperature read when you first turn it on.
The only negative is that I'm not 100% sure of its accuracy. It might be my fault because I'm not sure exactly where to place it in my mouth - I kind of aim for under one side of my tongue, toward the back, but it's a little hard to tell if that's right based on the diagram in the instructions. But I've used it for a couple months now and once in awhile I get a wacky reading. Then I re-temp and it seems to be a more normal temperature (I use FAM so I have some expectation of where my temperature should fall within a range) but it leaves me doubting the reading somewhat. I'm still giving it 4 stars though, because it might be user error and overall I would say it does usually give an accurate reading.
Item just as described April 12, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This thermometer has pretty much everything that is suggested when it comes to buying a basal body thermometer. It has the backlight and the memory function. It only takes 1 minute to give you your temperature. It beeps every 4 seconds to let you know it is working. I would prefer that it didn't beep and that is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. It also gives you a long beep to let you know when it is done. It only reads to one decimal place after the decimal which is fine with me.
could be better March 16, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
i like the slim tip design, the speed of this thermometer (1 min vs my previous one which was 5mins), the back light & the 4 sec beep to tell you that it's on (I used to fall back to sleep while it was taking my temp & only realise after 10 mins that i had accidentally turned it off!) I don't like the fact that it only read temp in Fahrenheit & that it only has 1 number after the decimal point instead of 2.
