Review on Braun No Touch and Forehead Thermometer: Fast, Reliable Accurate Results for All Ages by Jeremy Nunez

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It would be great if it actually worked!

As two of my four children are here with a mutant influenza virus I want to warn you how inaccurate this thermometer is. I checked it with two oral thermometers (plus the one I got at my pediatrician's appointment yesterday) and it *consistently* reads 2+ degrees higher than the other thermometers. This is unacceptable. I want this to work because I really like the mute button, the fact that it can be used as a no touch, and the color/beep sequence changes with temperature (Green=Normal, Yellow=Low, Red=Fever). After all, all the bells and whistles mean nothing if the damn thing doesn't work. Save your money!

Pros
  • NON-CONTACT THERMOMETER — This non-contact forehead thermometer from Braun provides clinically accurate and reliable readings from up to 5 cm away without waking a sleeping baby. It can also be used as a traditional forehead thermometer.
Cons
  • Available in black only
