Customer Reviews

Quality Product and Fair Price

2008-06-26
I purchased this for my Dad after he had a scare regarding his high blood pressure and dizzy spells. The quality is very good and the ease of use is what convinced me to get this for him.

Would buy from this vendor again and I would recommend this item to anyone looking for an easy to use blood pressure monitor.

Very Intelligent

I am extremely pleased with this product. It is very easy to use and I feel that it is quite accurate. You do need to insert batteries in order to use the memory feature because when you use the ac adapter and then unplug it, the memory doesn't remember. It is an excellent monitor for a beginner who wants to keep track of your blood pressure away from the doctor's office.

A must have.

I bought this machine after I was diagnosed with pregnancy-induced hypertention. This has made me feel so much more secure knowing that I can monitor my levels whenever I feel like it. Though my BP is back to normal, I continue to use this just to keep up. I want no surprises. For those having issues with the numbers: You MUST follow the directions precisely!

The techs in the Dr's office will walk you down a long hallway, talk to you DURING monitoring, incorrectly positon your arm and THEN give you a HIGH number. You MUST be relaxed. Always INSIST on resting or relaxing before you or anyone else takes your blood pressure. This is no joke, take care of yourselves!!!!

Blood pressure monitor

This BPM is easy to use and seems to deliver as promised. I like being able to plug it in rather than use batteries.

Omron HEM 711AC works great

2008-07-04
This blood pressure monitor is easy to use and works fine.

Only problem was that the handle tore off the carrying case -- it was poorly sewn. It's just a thin fabric case -- not sturdy. They could not get us a new one when my husband called Omron about it. Apparently no warranty on the carrying case. I will have to repair it myself.

But my husband is very pleased with the monitor, and the fact that it has an irregular heartbeat indicator was a plus.

BP check

2008-07-03
This Monitor was purchased to replace another Omron that we have had for many years and thought it might not be reading right. The Doctor wanted my wife and I to both check BP. It does read a little high, but the Doctor says that as long as we know it is not totally accurate that we still have a good idea what our pressures are.

Easy to use

Have been using for over a month, and find it fast, easy and reliable for accurate readings. A good buy. I researched brands and models and this one kept coming up on top.

Works as advertised - saved trips to pharmacy

2008-07-02
I purchased this product after being diagnosed with hypertension after hvaing severe headaches. My Dr. suggested I keep track of my BP for him to he could adjust my medicine. This saved me trips to the pharmacy several times a day. Well,just for info - I immediately quit smoking (40 yr smoker), started walking 15 mins then 30 mins a day, avoided as much salt as possible and now I'm working on getting off Micardis in less than 3 months with a lifestyle change. Getting back to the BP machine, I was able to measure my BP anytime of the day, and I usually took 6-8 readings a day and then averaged them out. Last week my Dr. said that I could half my pills for two weeks and if BP is still within normal limits then I could stop the meds. This is a good product, but if you have high BP, try to change your lifestyle as quickly as possible!

Exactly What I Wanted (and Expected)

I ordered this product to use at home to monitor my blood pressure. It can be used plugged in or with batteries. It is exactly what I wanted and expected. I highly recommend it.
