Product Reviews of Mabis Healthcare Instant Ear Thermometer, White
Product Review: Operator error or just not accurate?
Summary: 2 Stars
I really like the ease of use of this item. My problem lies with the different results I get. I can take what I think are identical readings in one ear and get slightly different results. Then if I compare with readings from my other ear the numbers get even further apart. I just got an oral thermometer that tracks pretty well with an ear thermometer at our doctor's office. The Mabis ear thermometer will usually be 1-2 degrees different than either of those. I can't rely on it, which is unfortunate because I really love the backlit screen, memory settings, travel case it comes with, and how it beeps to indicate when you're running a fever. Product Review: Good thermometer, easy to use
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a good thermometer, easy to use. It makes a noise when it's done reading your temperature, which makes it easy to take your own. I also like that you don't have to use any disposable parts, which is sanitary enough if you're using it just on your family. Product Review: Not worth the money!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
1) Item looks better on screen than in your hands.
2) When you first turn on the thermometer LCD screen says, "Lo" for Low battery.
3) No off button, to conserve battery power.
4) Temperature is instantaneous but inconsistent, especially if taken in one ear and then the next, usually off by a whole degree. It's far worse when taken simultaneously. You get different results every time.
5) Unreliable. Inconsistent. Not worth the money. Bad choice.
Product Review: One of the best I have bought
Summary: 5 Stars
I have bought about four different types of digital thermometers over the last years, for personal use and as gifts. This one is the best. It's small size and back-lit display enabled to put it in my jacket pocket and use inside the plane when I once flew sick - not something I could have done with other thermometers that I had bought.Product Review: I Really Like This
Summary: 5 Stars
I just needed a handy instant thermometer that worked. This compact little item really gets the job done with no fuss or bother. It is not frightening for children who may dislike being picked/prodded especially when they are not feeling well. You get used to the low beeps which, eventually, do aid in quick relief or growing concern over the presence of a fever. I am a grandmother, so i have tried quite a few of these products over the years, yes, including the old fashioned mercury thermometers and I have found this one to be accurate and very user-friendly. Also, not having to replace lens covers is the best convenience of all..a little rubbing alcohal after use is all it requires. A very nice product that travels well.
