Wokrs well, texture is odd

I bought this knowing that my current thermometer was wearing out. It is a good size, doesn't take up too much space. It works well and seems to be accurate compared to my previous one. I don't love the texture of the part that goes in your mouth. My previous one was all plastic, this one has bendy rubber at the part that goes in your mouth. Guessing this is because it could be used rectally. I don't like that texture that much and I question if I am able to disinfect it as well as I do the…

Pros
  • Easy to use for all age groups, including children and seniors
Cons
  • The thermometer may not work well on people with ear abnormalities or infections

Great thermometer for everyday use!

This product is a great thermometer for everyday use. It is simple to use straight out of the box and provides additional features which make it ideal for family use. My 3 month old twins can be squirmy when attempting to take a temperature, but this thermometer has a flexible probe which moved with my baby allowing me make fewer attempts to get a temperature taken. This thermometer is also great due to the speed in which it returns an accurate result, taking me about 10 seconds to get a…

Pros
  • Non-invasive: The device is non-invasive when used orally, ideal for those who dislike invasive testing methods
Cons
  • The thermometer may not work well on people who have recently eaten or drunk hot or cold beverages

Best Dam Thermometer Ever

OMG, this thing is like crazy amazing. It has a button so you can turn it on. Then you stick it where you want (I did under the tongue) and after a while it beeps! Holey moley -- When you look at it shows your body temperature.Simply incredible!

Pros
  • Family-friendly: The thermometer is ideal for the entire family, making it an essential household tool
Cons
  • The thermometer may not work well on people with very thin skin or who are frail

Fast results, comfortable to use, but loud alarm.

I bought this thermometer because my 3-year-old hated my old rigid-tipped thermometer. I used this on myself first, and it's very comfortable in the mouth. I am not giving a 5 star review only because it's *very* loud and there does not appear to be a way to shut off or lower the sound. Also note that the directions clearly state that it is not accurate if used for axillary (armpit) temperature, so if that's your preferred method, choose a different model/brand.Edit: First off, I bought this on

Pros
  • Thermometers
Cons
  • The thermometer may not be suitable for people with certain medical conditions that affect body temperature regulation

digital oral thermometer

I received my iProven Dt-R1221AWG Medical Thermometer, not trusting my infrared in-ear thermometer. Easy to use, digits are approx 1/2 inch and readable. Takes approx 10-30 seconds to get a read, similar to the glass oral thermometers. There is a "completed" tone, but can be difficult to hear, especially with background noise. There are little smiley faces on the display which i cannot see well w/o magnifier but knowing the three stages (normal, slight elevated and elevated) and their positions

Pros
  • It is so easy to use.
Cons
  • It is way slower than 10 seconds.

Never worked. REVISED due to seller reaching out

Did not work out of the box. HOWEVER, seller contacted me in response to the initial review and replaced the product. Great Customer Service. Works fast, not quite accurate, but good enough. Thanks to the seller for replacing.

Pros
  • The thermometer is built to last, ensuring it stays functional for a long period
Cons
  • The thermometer may not work well on people with thick skin or calluses

NO AUDIBLE "BEEP " for my opinion

I TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID, CAN TELL I HAVE A BIT OF A FEVER AND THIS THING WAS CONSTANTLY GIVES ME READINGS IN THE 96 DEGREE RANGE AND NONE OF THE THREE FACES WERE BEING MARKED.NOW AFTER ABOUT TEN USES, STILL NO BEEP BUT 98 DEGREES AND SMILEY FACE MARKED.MY ONLY ISSUE IS THAT I CANNOT HEAR ANY "BEEP" IN MY COMPLETELY SILENT ROOM. BUT IF SOME USERS SAY IT READS IN 20 SECS, I'LL GO WITH THAT.CAVEAT EMPTOR.

Pros
  • FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY - Our thermometer is suitable for the whole family. From babies to teens to adults. With its waterproof tip, it’s easy to clean before and after every use. Making it hygienic to pass through the family.
Cons
  • The thermometer may not work well for measuring temperatures in pets or livestock

Where's the beep? in my review

Several reviewers report that there is no beep. When I hold the thermometer a few millimeters from my ear and press the "on" button, a very brief and very, very quiet beep occurs. But, further from my ear, such as when the thermometer is in my mouth, the beep cannot be heard at all, even in a silent room. The instructions say that the reading is complete when a beep is heard and when the "F" or "C" stops blinking. Alas, one cannot see the F nor the C when the thermometer is in one's mouth…

Pros
  • Price and use
Cons
  • The hard case is bulky and can take up valuable storage space

Good purchase but for my opinion

I finally purchased this digital thermometer due to the Coronavirus pandemic to replace my ancient (but still useable) mercury thermometer. I appreciate the flexiblity which makes it more comfortable in the mouth. I don't necessarily hear the beep (without my hearing aids) so I count 10 sec., no worries. I rated this 4 instead of 5 because of the tiniest screw ever keeping the battery compartment closed. Yes, there are tiny screwdrivers available on Best Buy, I just looked. However, we…

Pros
  • Convenient product during COVID for quick results
Cons
  • The thermometer is not waterproof, making it difficult to clean and sanitize

I am very choosy on medical items

This is wicked easy to use, easy on the mouth. The part that goes under the tongue is pleasantly soft feeling, not at all hard to use, plus it is superbly accurate. I am very satisfied with my purchase, the performance of this thermometer, I highly recommend it. A big thanks to Best Buy for having this available for purchase.!

Pros
  • LEDs with a fever warning system: The thermometer uses a color-coded warning system to alert users of fever temperatures
Cons
  • The thermometer may not be suitable for use on people with certain disabilities or physical limitations

Finally, a Thermometer that fits comfortable uner the tongue!

Received this Proven Digital Thermometer 3 weeks ago. Wow, I love it. There are so many digital thermometers on the market, and trying to buy one can seem hopeless standing in front of the display at the drug store not knowing if the more expensive one is better than the cheap one. This one form Proven has worked perfect since it arrived. I am impressed. My favorite is the flexible tip; have always hated placing the stiff uncomfortable tips of traditional thermometers under my tongue, such an…

Pros
  • TEMPERATURE CHECKING MADE EASY - iProven’s DTR-1221A is equipped with a fever alarm, smiley indicators, and finishing beep. Taking the guesswork out of knowing when your temp is normal or a fever.
Cons
  • The thermometer requires frequent calibration to maintain accuracy, which can be time-consuming

Does the job-one small problem.

It is an accurate oral/rectal thermometer, period. I found it difficult to hear the beeps. One small problem is that sometimes it's necessary to hold the thermometer flat on a surface in order to sufficiently depress the on/off button which activates/deactivates the item. It gives you an accurate temperature reading pretty quickly.

Pros
  • Multi-purpose: The thermometer can also be used to measure the temperature of objects, liquids, and surfaces
Cons
  • The thermometer can be difficult to use for people with vision impairments

First Aid Kit - my new review

This is just one of the items I put into a "Dog” first aid kit for my granddaughter’s pooch. It will come in handy if she ever needs it.

Pros
  • The device comes with a hard case that provides extra protection when not in use
Cons
  • The thermometer may not be suitable for use in certain environmental conditions, such as high altitudes or extreme temperatures

Very easy to use and a quick read!

This thermometer is super easy to use which is great when you have a little one who doesn't like to be bothered. There is one button to press and then it beeps when it's done, telling you what the result is which is nice. I gave it 4 starts instead of 5 because I wish that it would take a little bit longer to give the result so make sure it is 100% accurate. While it was not completely off, I know my kid and I know she was running a very low grade fever but it was not shown with this…

Pros
  • {}
Cons
  • The flexible tip may not be durable and may wear out quickly with frequent use

didn't work properly

I finally got in touch with the company 3pm-7pm Pacific time. The representative was very courteous and aasured me they would send me a new unit and to just throw out the defective one. Things don't work right sometimes, but it's nice to know that a company stands behind their products

Pros
  • My mom couldn't figure out how to turn this on. The power button was too hard for her to push.
Cons
  • But it’s hard to say whether that’s because I’m super healthy or it is inaccurate.

Not a fast thermometer.

This thermometer is not fast. It says it's a 10 second thermometer but it really takes about 30-60 seconds. What I wanted was a thermometer that was very fast for use 10-15 times a day.

Pros
  • Rectal
Cons
  • The thermometer may not be accurate if used on a sweaty forehead

It takes your temperature

I guess it works. How would I know if the temperature is accurate? I'm hoping it is. It takes a bit longer than I would like and the digital display is small. But hey, it's a thermometer and it takes your temperature.

Pros
  • Long battery life: The device has an extended battery life that makes it efficient and cost-effective
Cons
  • The thermometer may not work well on people who are very obese or who have a lot of body fat

Best option for my opinion

I own 6 or so thermometers. This feels almost as good as the name brand that costs 2x the price. Works great so I bought another

Pros
  • Safety: The flexible tip ensures that the temperature-taking process is comfortable and safe
Cons
  • The thermometer is not very intuitive and may require some technical know-how to use properly

Cool feature of a bendable tip

This thermometer works well for it's intended use. I really liked the fact that it has a bendable tip so it makes it easier for little mouths. Remember when you were a kid using the good old fashioned mercury thermometer and it hurt your mouth and was awkward? Not this one.This thermometer is accurate. I always test a new thermometer when I'm not sick to make sure we get a 98.6 degree read. You never want to be questioning accuracy when someone had a high fever.The only feature I wish it had…

Pros
  • Cost-effective
Cons
  • The thermometer is not very accurate when used on a moving target, such as a squirming child

Well made, easy to use and read.

Great thermometer with nice features. Remembers your last Tempe that was taken, it takes your temperature with in 20 seconds, and the LCD is easy to read. It’s also made very well and I like that it comes in a clear case. This thermometer also has a different beeps. If it’s getting high then it will start beeping differently to let you know you have a fever. The only issue I have with this thermometer is that I gave a habit of pressing the button to stop the beeping. Unfortunately, this also…

Pros
  • I really like easy to use and read very inexpensive but good quality
Cons
  • The display is small and can be difficult to read, especially for the elderly
