OmronGold Blood Pressure Monitor, Premium Upper Arm Cuff, Digital Bluetooth Blood Pressure Machine, Stores Up to 120 Readings for Two Users (60 Readings Each)

This is a very nice BP monitor and cuff. The cuff is large and will fit most arms unless you are a bodybuilder. It is accurate and easy to use.

I did a lot of research on bp monitors and in fact bought one from another brand. It didn't work well. This monitor is excellent in many respects. It's accurate, easy to use, stores your record and can be used by more than one. It also can be connected to your iPhone so you can show your record to your doctor. Actually, it is recommended by doctors and nurses. Many times, nurses take my bp measurements on this monitor. Besides, it is compact and easily stored on the shelf when not in use. I write this after experience and research.

Excellent product, with capacity of two users and expanded memory. Comfortable and compact, easy to read and uncomplicated technology. I have used this model BP monitor for over 2 years and only purchased this new unit when I dropped my original unit. My method is to rest for 5 minutes, take 3 separate readings over another 5 minutes, then average the readings. Remember your BP can, and will, change with every reading, thus multiple readings. Having such a reliable device is essential to report your routine values when you visit your physicians’s office. My BP is frequently artificially elevated at the doc’s office because of the white coat phenomena; the fact that I just walked in the door and did not have an appropriate time to rest; a single reading, rather than an averaged reading; office devices that rarely, if ever, are calibrated; and office staff that have questionable training. So, I bring my history to the office to show my physician. This is a great opportunity to take charge of your health. As far as accuracy is concerned, have a look at Consumer Reports and their evaluation. As far as technique is concerned, read what the American Heart Association recommends. BTW, if you think that taking your BP 3 times over 10 minutes is too involved, or takes too long, then perhaps your stress level is affecting your BP. Remember, ensuring an accurate and reliable assessment of your BP, is one of THE most critical components of your healthcare. Finally, to underscore my comments above, these thoughts all result from being a practicing physician for over 40 years and seeing how important an accurate BP can be in everyone’s healthcare. (Yes, white coat phenomena affects us too!).

Update after regular use: My doctor and I compared the results with the in-office equipment and found that on 4 measurements over an hour’s time, the systolic result (upper number) matched the doctor’s equipment, but the diastolic measurement (lower number) never did and was not consistent in its variation (so we can’t just add or subtract a few units to get a match). I am not sure what to think of this except to be aware and remind the doctor of our test.Original review: Seems to do a great job with BP, and the screen is easy to read. It does keep some history for up to 2 people. A couple of items for other buyers to notice when making their selection:1. App is not required. Seems like a cool modern feature until you read the Terms of Service and with whom your health information will be shared. The device works correctly without the app. Consider carefully.2. No power cord, only batteries. The power cord has to be ordered separately from the company. It does ship with batteries but they are not rechargeable. Definitely room to improve on sustainability.

[ review being written after almost 1 year worth of use]I have an older manual pump BP monitor. It had some troubles "locking" onto to me while using. So it would display error and I would have to try and try and try again. My primary Doctor recommended a new unit, and recommended Omron. There are quite a few versions to select from. Making the selection a bit difficult. I went for a middle of the road model. Not the cheapest, not the most expensive. Additionally, I went with one that had the highest number of positive reviews.I did not expect to like how the unit pairs with the APP. I do not really need the health tips that are pushed, but to some they can be helpful. The battery life is great! I have yet to replace the batteries.The display is easy to read. There are many icons. It did take a little time to learn what they all were for.Many many more features than I need. With such a rich feature set, there is likely some variety in the needs and uses for each individual.Pros:- BT connectivity to sync with phone- Great battery life- Helpful and useful partner app (to view historical readings)- ability to track two different individuals- seems accurate (according to reading take at Dr office the same day)Cons:- none that I have discoveredWould I purchase again: YesWould I recommend to others: Yes

This monitor is easy to use, and seems to do its job easily and accurately though I can't prove the accuracy part, of course. I'd prefer if it had a reasonable plug-in option, but that's nitpcking. Anyway, I really like being able to get a blood pressure reading whenever I want, and this little guy does the trick for me.

Easy to set up and use this Omron is the brand my GP uses.

I had a cheaper BP monitor which was fine but I wanted a more accurate BP monitor and my cardiologist suggested an OMRON Upper Arm type. I compared the two and the cheaper version was off by 10-15 Sys.This monitor is easy to use and I like to take 2-3 readings then average the numbers out.I have not used the app so I can't say if its good or not as I prefer to write my daily BP readings in a notebook.Price was okay, 4 AA batteries included and delivered the next day, highly recommend this one a try.

liked it because it did everything it said it would do after we followed the instructions

Have been using it for a couple months now and find it to be easy to use, cuff works and fits well and gives consistent readings unlike my last unitthat my pharmacist recommended and sold me. love the Omron app it keeps track of my daily readings and heart rates which is accessible on my phone when i see my doctor. Highly recommend this unit!
