Great thermometer! for my opinion

The Proven digital thermometer looks like any other digital thermometer at first glance. The box was appealing, with some of the most important pros right on the box, such as "fast, 10 sec", "flexible", smiley face indicator, and "switchable" from Fahrenheit to Celsius switching capability. It comes in a clear case, to avoid easily damaging the thermometer, to keep it clean, and to make portability easy. It's super easy to use, and has easy-to-read, simple instructions right on the back of the…

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • The thermometer requires a new battery after a few uses, which can be costly

Things I like: (1) It's very easy to use; even a child could take their temperature and look to the emojis to see if they had a fever coming-on, or already had a fever; (2) The screen is easy to read; the numbers are large and they show up well; (3) There is a beeping system that alerts you when you're done taking your temperature, but makes a different set of beeps to alarm you that you either have a fever approaching, or you already have a fever; and, (4) It's the best thermometer I've used…

Pros
  • Easy to clean
Cons
  • The thermometer may not be suitable for use on people who are undergoing radiation therapy

Takes longer than 10 seconds

I rarely leave reviews and I thought I did my research in choosing this thermometer. However, what they do not tell you is that the "10 second" response time is only established once the thermometer climbs upto your constant temp. So it could that 25 to 40 seconds. Other brands, know that any human body temp will, at the very least, be above 95° or you have hypothermia. Other brands, and I tested 3, start out at 90° and then count upto of down to your bodies consistent temp. A newborn does not…

Pros
  • Easy to use and easy to clean, durable and accurate
Cons
  • It only worked for one year. In that year it worked well.

Oral or Rectal Reads ONLY, not Axillary!

The instructions for this thermometer expressly state it is not to be used for axillary readings, or rather the reading will not be accurate. It is to be used as an oral or rectal thermometer.I prefer the other digital option iProvèn has that gives a temporal or ear reading, and have used it more than this version. My children are small and will be still for a few clicks, but more than that for the smallest one is probably not reasonable at his newly mobile age (8 months).I like the flexible…

Pros
  • Works great, fast, easy. No problems.
Cons
  • The flexible tip can be difficult to insert and may cause discomfort

The button may be hard to press at first.

Small oral or rectal thermometer for more accurate temperature, it comes with a nice protective case. The button is very small and hard to depress , when using it orally like all the others it does take awhile to read your temperature 🤒 but its what I grew up using so I like it and feel more confident of the reading. And if I had a baby rectal would be a much more accurate way to gage their temperature and this one would be a great choice, it doesn’t have the fragility of the old thermometers…

Pros
  • Medical Supplies & Equipment
Cons
  • The temperature reading may take longer than 10 seconds in some cases

not easy to read - my new review

the thermometer is fast but it is not easy to see the numbers. it appears to be accurate, but as a senior citizen, it would be easier to see if back lit

Pros
  • Wide temperature range
Cons
  • The thermometer may not be suitable for use on people who are very young or very old, as their body temperature may differ from the norm

HIGHLY RECOMMEND - my new review

It took me believe it or not over one hour to choose an oral adult thermometer. First I read hundreds of customer reviews for well over fifteen thermometers on Best Buy. The one star reviews stopped me from immediately ordering. Then I went on Google to search for reviews. Google actually rated this thermometer the second best which prompted me to immediately order it. And I am not at all disappointed. The one reading I have taken today is accurate and was fast. The thermometer works exactly as

Pros
  • Easy to see. Delivers temperature very quickly .
Cons
  • The thermometer may give inaccurate readings if not calibrated properly

Accurate, fast and easy to use

I am required to check my temperature before I go to work. Using the Proven digital thermometer is my go to resource. The digital display is large and easy to read. My normal temperature is lower than average and upon first use I believe it accurately measured my temperature. I was also impressed with how quickly the ‘ready’ beep sounded. My temperature was displayed In less than 20 seconds which makes it a quick addition to my morning routine. It comes with a hard plastic storage case to keep…

Pros
  • Health & Household
Cons
  • The fever alarm may be too loud and startling, especially for young children
