Product Reviews of Omron HEM-711AC Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor with Standard Cuff
Product Review: Accurate Readings For only 6 Months
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this blood pressure monitor 6 months ago and used it according to the directions. Until this week, it worked accurately. Now it gives inaccurate high readings in the stroke or coma range. am now looking for a better automatic blood pressure monitor that is not an Omron brand.Product Review: Accurate and Easy To Use
Summary: 5 Stars
This monitor is the most accurate one I have owned and it is very easy to use. The price is right.Product Review: Accurate and Fast!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was recently diagnosed with Stage I hypertension and wanted to monitor my blood pressure. I read the reviews of this monitor and decided to take the plunge. Since my arm is larger than 13", I also needed the larger cuff. I would highly recommend both of these items to anyone that needs to monitor their blood pressure. Setup was quick and painless and operation is easy. The only issue I would point out is that the large cuff is very long so it is more difficult to get straight on your arm. One of the nice features is that you can operate it on batteries or from the wall plug. The batteries are needed if you want the monitor to keep your BP history since it can store 60 readings.Product Review: Almost excellent
Summary: 4 Stars
The HEM-711AC is accurate as confirmed against doctor's measurements, it has memory enough to retain a good history and can be powered by battery &/or A/C. However, the time & date function fails if the batteries are not installed and working.
The "fuzzy logic" thing that helps the machine know how to pressure up and depressure accurately and consistently is a great addition to BP measuring. I was never very trusting of measurement taken by a series of different professionals who were in a hurry or overpressured the cuff.
The only feature I wish had been included is the averaging of all measurements in memory. With this model the only readings that are included in the averaging feature are the very recent ones. Useful if you want to know what your average BP has been this morning but no good if you are interested in seeing a trend for the week. Given the state of consumer electronics where cell phones can cook breakfast, I'm sure a pretty nice suite of memory, averaging and graphing features could be worked out cheaply.
That said, for about $50 the unit does what it advertised and does it very well.
Product Review: An Execellent Daily Monitor
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very durable and well made little machine. My wife uses it twice a day from the AC Power Supply. We believe this is more accurate than relying on batteries that might give a weak reading. The monitor is a very compact size and is supplied with a durable travel pouch. We feel very confident in its readings.
