Excellent value., 8 Nov. 2011

A good quality digital thermometer, giving readings in F or C. A fraction of the price of similar one at Boots. I wouldn't want to use it orally - I don't quite know why -but under the arm it's fine and as accurate as a mercury thermometer (I checked to compare!).

Accurate as described, 19 Sept. 2012

Due to some reviews decribing dubious accuracy I bought this thermometer with a similarly-priced one (Highly Accurate Digital Medical Thermometer @ £1.69)http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000LZ0Y82/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00to see how accurate a cheap thermometer is.My GP wanted a three-week period of results measured twice daily and quite frankly, for that short a test, I was not keen on spending more than a tenner.Using them as indicated both thermometers gave results consistently within the 0.1 +/- as described within the makers' parameters which is good enough for me.I have heard the saying that if you wear two wrist-watches you never know what time it is (lol!!), and I suppose using two thermometers could fall under the same saying.I am happy with the readings and would recommend this product on its own.

Great, 5 Mar. 2013

Does what it says on the tin. Used for my baby and myself. I had a high temperature of 38.1 after getting mastitis and this was a great aid to recording my temperature and knowing that I did truly have a high temp.
