Review on Digital Flexi-Tip Thermometer - Accurate Fever Detection For Adults And Kids - Quick And Reliable Reading With Smiley Indicator And Protective Case By IProvèn® by Mack Cruz

When my old, reliable digital oral thermometer gave out after 20-some years of use, I decided to try one of those thermometers that you stick in your ear, but it didn’t work worth crud. So then I tried one that swipes across your forehead - but again, I couldn’t get it to give the same result twice in a row, and it rarely seemed accurate. Thus, I was relieved to find this digital thermometer that works basically the same as my old one, with a couple of improvements: 1) the part that goes in your mouth is flexible, so it doesn’t stab the sensitive area under your tongue, and 2) it records your temp in 10-20 seconds. My old one took 30-60 seconds.I realize this isn’t an instant-read result, but I can live with a 20-second wait in order to get an accurate and reliable result - at a fraction of the cost, I might add. Also, its compact size makes it easy to travel with. I highly recommend it.
