HealthSmart Manual Blood Pressure Monitor, Self Taking Blood Pressure Kit, With Standard Cuff Size 1

I had been using a battery operated meter but got tired of swapping out (rechargeable) cells. Decided to go back to manual. Was a bit apprehensive about buying this due to the low price, thinking it might be poor construction or inaccurate. But no, it's well made, gauge is solidly built metal. Readings are similar to what I get on my battery meter, which I already knew was quite accurate by comparing to results at doctor's office.

My mother old ones got broken, so I bought this one, she likes manual ones. So she tried and said they work very well, and easy to use. Seems to be well made.

As someone else said in regard to this item, "You Get What You Pay For." This item isn't worth that. The item states "Professional Quality." Yeah right. This item is made in China, and appears cheap and of poor quality in every way. Mine arrived with a cracked lens on the aneroid gauge. The eartips on the stethoscope are just awful! They are so painfully hard that my blood pressure went up just having them jabbing at my ears. My ears still hurt and it's been at least 20 minutes since I boxed it back up and requested a refund from Amazon.

It's easy to use and it's louder so there is no second guessing the 1st and last sounds. I love it. I don't like electronic ones. I want to hear it so I know for sure. The sound quality on this product is excellent!

I believe in keeping tabs on blood pressure. Having said that, I recommend manual checks over digital monitors. I’ve been a practicing physician for over 30 years. I have found nothing superior to good ole fashion evaluations. This monitor gives anyone the ability to check their hypertensive status at home. The digital monitors are okay, but they inevitably read higher than manual monitoring. This monitor comes with the ability to get a large adult cuff instead of the standard cuff for larger arms. The monitor is well constructed.

Was looking for a large self-taking BP cuff kit, and this seemed to fit the bill. But the cuff is absolutely HUGE!!! A little hard to wrap and snug up on my arm. Way bigger than I need but afraid the regular size won't be big enough, so I'm keeping this one. Works fine, seems well made and calibrated (against doctor's office). Swapped the stethoscope earpiece with the one I had and it's seems better, tho I don't know why.

This works just as advertised

I purchased this because I needed to practice taking blood pressure since I volunteer with my school's ambulance. I'm content with my purchase, it works fine and gets the job done. The diaphragm was attached to the blood pressure cuff and I didn't like that, I almost went to return it, but the diaphragm piece can be unscrewed and detached from the cuff. A couple of other notes, the diaphragm is single sided and the earpieces may hurt your ears because its made of a hard plastic.
