20 Best Blood Pressure Monitors For Seniors (2023 Updated)

I took a long time deciding which one to buy because I needed the med. sized cuff but there was no adapter advertised with it. When I messaged looking for an adapter they said they didn’t sell one separately.

I was amazed and very impressed when I opened mine to find an adapter right on top. giving me more than I expected. I had been warned about 2 things when buying a blood pressure monitor , # 1 get a cuff hat fits you or it won’t work #2 These guages go through batteries very fast so get one that plugs in or has an adapter.

This machine covers both along with being solidly built and very easy to setup and use. I highly recommend both the machine and the supplier who sent it out in a matter of days not weeks as I’m used to.

You can shop around but this is the best deal I could find and it appears to be well built and long lasting. Thanks Again Also the bag to carry it all in is very handy. I wish there were more than 5 stars.

P. S. after I messaged him asking about buying an adapter for it because it didn’t specify that it had one he said he didn’t sell them. I was overjoyed to find an adapter sitting at the very top when I opened the box.

Also while reading the instruction manual it appears to say that it will only last 2-3 years depending on usage ( I’m assuming that’s because of the compressor wearing out but I appreciate honesty and I’m betting it will last me at least 10 years and I’m 60 years old).

So I bought this wanting something accurate and reliable to take my blood pressure with, but I took it to my doctor yesterday and I was using it properly, but the readings on it were still way lower than what the nurse got using a stethoscope and proper cuff.

This unit has only given me one error in the entire time I’ve used it, comfortable and easy to use, just not as accurate as I need it to be. Got the item really fast so shipper was great on that part.

I cannot believe how well this heart rate monitor works, and how inexpensive it is. During this pandemic you almost need to be your own nurse and be able to take health readings to send to your doctor.

At the least you should have a thermometer, oxygen saturation meter, and a heart rate monitor. All of them are inexpensive if you shop around. The heart rate monitor is easy to operate and the measurements appears to be very repeatble.

I highly recommend it.

This is a very accurate machine, especially for the money. Forget it going in that bag. It barely fits. You can keep in somewhere in the box or close to you if you have to take your blood pressure frequently.

I have compared this to the dr’s offices and it is usually within 5 on either number. I cover the voice speaker with my finger. The cuff is a little hard to get on by yourself, but it is bigger than the one I had previously, and my husband could use this one.

Tip: to get cuff on (wearing no clothes on that arm) slide the cuff already together (with the word artery pointed down to your wrist). Tighten cuff. THEN spin cuff on your arm to match up the word ‘artery’ with the inside crook of your elbow (the cord to attach to machine should be going down arm towards fingers).

If for some reason the cuff doesn’t fit, you could either buy a bigger one and just plug it into machine – OR you can take bp on lower half of arm (but above wrist). Again, – ‘artery’ would be pointed to wrist on inside closest to all your blood vessels.

What you see is what you get. There are a lot of others with additional features or more expensive. I am happy I chose this one (I am going to read the directions to try and turn off her voice, but that would be a handy feature if you had very bad eyesight).

Am extremely happy, and it works! Fast shipping. I recommend!.

I have owned two other Omron BP cuff machines in the past, and was very pleased over the years. I wanted to get a new one that with a larger cuff. My problem is getting the cuff to position properly on my arm to get a reading.

It is either too lose, or constantly says I moved when I haven’t. I am not sure about the reading. The first one I take in the morning my pulse is always very low. I wait at least 5 minutes and take a reading, and the next two pulse readings are more normal.

The brand and price was my incentive to purchase this product. After using it for a week, I am not able to recommend it to anyone. It at best this is an average unit.

Honestly, this little thing may have actually saved me life. I am a sufferer of migraines but in November of 2021 I started getting headaches that were like no other. My mother suggested to take my pressure and it was EXTREMELY high.

I thought it may have just been stress. So I monitored it for a few weeks and noticed it was remaining high, so I decided to go to my doctor who in turn sent me to a cardiologist and a few test and scans later and I discovered I had coronary artery disease…I’ve already undergone placement of three stents.

Although I only gave it 4 stars, I do love this system. It is quite easy to use – I was replacing an Omron 10 series from 2014 because the rigid cuff that came with the older system gave me falsely high readings.

The problem I have is that I have gotten false high readings with this system, too. I found that out when I went to the doctor with these readings only to find that my BP was actually normal. He explained that many home units give falsely elevated readings.

The EKG feature was flawless. Another negative is battery life. Unfortunately, this unit does not have rechargeable batteries and will not plug in. After only a few days of use, I am already at less than 40%.

This unit was providing readings well above my norms. Took it with me on a visit to my cardiologist and had it tested against the hospital machines. It consistently provided readings at least 20 points higher.

I wrote to Omron and they wrote back that I should call. I called and spent 15 minutes listening to a rep instruct me on the proper application of the cuff. We then took a reading and it was again 20 points high and consistent with previous erroneous readings.

I was instructed to package up the maachine and ship it – AT MY EXPENSE – to a lab for testing. Certainly not worth the $200 purchase price and the aggravation!.

Here is what i just wrote omron. I purchased the following: Omron complete Omron platinum Kardio 6L My disapointment is immense. Your app designers have designed the app for idiot apple users. 1) every android user knows enough to pair a blue tooth device.

Your products require you to unpair through the phones settings if you have already done this and connect via the app this is counter intuitive and wastes a lot of end user time. 2) connecting to kardia 6L does not work because each time you do it (again through app only) you force the user to go through a presentation which freezes at the “align A facing upwards” step.

Conseqently i can never move forward with an EKG. 3) i returned the omron complete because while i was eventually able to connect bluetooth, apparently you transfer data to the app via sound and a tablet does not fit in the pocket the device has.

It was able to work but only 5% of the time despite having a strong signal. 4) why on earth do you transfer data by sound? I suspect bluetooth does not have the data transfer rate required but why cant you record on device and transfer the data after via bluetooth? 5) why on earth are you using a bluetooth button on your hardware as an “accept” button for everything this is incredibly counter intuitive to any one whous not an apple user.

The omron complete is rediculous to do anything you have to press start which runs the pump and tries to take blood pressure, the platinum at least has arrow buttons but you need a dedicated “accept” or “ok” button.

5) why do you bury the add/remove device in blood pressure monitoring. It should be in the root of settings like everything else in the world. Perhaps settings->device management (again this was not in manual i had to go to your website and dig into frequently asked questions.

Hint frequently asked questions are frequent because you have not addressed in manual or your device is counter intuitive 6) having to give you my address just to contact you is disturbing, fortunately you do not require my social security number.

please dont send me more junk mail. 7) if i dont recieve a solution to Kardio connect in 1 week i am returning all this garbage and purchasing chinese products, i have equally low expectations but at least it will cost less and there wont be the obvious upsell “premium” contract motive in the background.

Seriously disastisfied customer.

We first tried the blood pressure cuff when it arrived. It took almost 120 seconds to inflate enough to begin checking the bp, even after putting our own Duracell batteries in. The readings were different than expected and we’re never the same with back-to-back tests.

When the nurse did a normal bp test we immediately tried this item twice and was nowhere near the nurses results. The nurse advised us NOT TO USE THIS DEVICE TO CHECK OUR BLOOD PRESSURE.

The product is good for the price but it’s pretty difficult to use and doesn’t guarantee accurate results all the time. Traditional Blood Pressure monitors are better for accuracy. Just use the information from this one as a hint or use it for trending the data.

There is no way to download data from the machine which is another problem even tho it stores the readings in memory. Product is outdated.

I like this wrist cuff very much. After applying it and turning it on, it will not inflate until it senses that the person’s arm is the right position to the heart. A small picture of a heart flashes letting you know that it is trying to sense the correct placement.

It gives you time to move the arm up or down or near the chest. Once your in good postion, it begins to inflate. I like this feature as it is more accurate this way! The numbers light up on the screen after.

Very nice cuff. 5 star.

to complicated to set up and I can’t get it to start taking the pressure. I’m old with little patience. I just gave up until I can get a younger “techy” person to take a look at it for me. I tried reading the book but the words are very small and it’s hard to understand what they are telling me to do.

VERY FRUSTRATED !!!!!.

I specifically asked the sales people whether Model 787F contained any latex or natural rubber. They didn’t commit themselves 100%, but said it was the same as my previous model 767PV, which hadn’t triggered my allergy.

I tried Model 767F once. Within 45 minutes, my body swelled up, and I needed to take Benadryl and use my asthma inhaler for days afterwards. Latex/ natural rubber allergy can be quite serious. Please explicitly label “Contains natural rubber/latex” on the box and the website, and consider making an alternative product using synthetic rubber rather than natural rubber.

You could save a life. Thank you.

Wow !! I’m very happy to have researched info on the most accurate and dependable blood pressure monitor for home use. I am diabetic and have hypertension / blood pressures health concerns. A&D Blood Pressure Monitors are recommended by the American Heart Association.

That is reason one for purchasing it. Reason two is that A&D is highly known for it’s medical equipment, etc. Vitality Medical carries A&D medical equipment. Need I say more ? !! I am very happy. The blood pressure monitor is easy to use.

And I love the carry / storage case that is included. I can take it with me to my doctors.

I run this monitor and a much cheaper one side by side each day. They both are very close to each other on the measure so that is how I prove accuracy. And it is very close to what the doctors office measures.

I don’t love the cuff. it has a hard curved starting edge that you initially lay on your bicep to begin the wrap. That hard curved edge never really sits flat on the arm. It’s supposed to be a feature for a proper fit but I think it’s to stiff and the curve to small for anyone’s arm.

Whenever I get a crazy reading I readjust the cuff and press that curved edge as flat as I can and then the reading is normal.

I had an old OMRON 10 for years that gave very consistent readings and matched my doctor’s system. Foolishly, I gave that one away to a needy friend and “upgraded” to this “Evolv” device. Since then, I have come to not be able to trust any numbers the Evolv provides.

From reading to reading within minutes In the same position, readings of varied as high as 20 points systolic. I brought it to my doctor and compared to their device in the same position it was also off by something like 20 points systolic.

I contacted Omron and spoke with their customer service about this. I confirmed that this is the same technology that they use in the 10, and that if the readings were accurate in the position I was in in the 10 they should be as accurate on the Evolv.

Bottom line there’s nothing the consumer can do to calibrate or further test this, it needs to be sent into Omron and you’ll be without a unit (or ability to keep on top of your BP) for quite some time as they test it, etc.

In my opinion a five year warranty with this level of service is useless. I asked them to perhaps just swap me back for a 10 and that wasn’t acceptable to them. So this is basically going into the garbage and unfortunately I’ll probably throw away yet another hundred dollars to re-purchase a 10 so that I can protect my health.

Very disappointed in Omron, I feel like an idiot for giving away my old device to replace it with this useless garbage unit, and good to know how badly these are supported by the manufacturer Omron.

I read the negative comments for this product and I have to say I’ve never had any problem. The readings are accurate and reliable. I calibrated with my other wired/hose system and it tracts perfectly.

Also, it easily sinks to my iphone health app and easily receives data transfer from the apple health app such as activity ( steps). Their Connect app is easy to install and set up on an iphone. Their reports can be emailed and provide both tabular and graph outputs.

I have muscular arms and this cuff fits no problem. Love the fact that it is completely wireless/hoseless. I use it everyday and it is easy to travel with. And the batteries last a long time. It’s been over 3 months since using twice a day for the 3 months and the batteries are still strong.

Don’t let the negative comments sway you. I think this is the best BP device I’ve ever owned and it easily fits your lifestyle and provides great and usable data output.

I “upgraded” from an Omron 10 that I had for years and loved. The Evolv gives readings that fluctuate by sound 20 systolic points minutes apart, and was off around that much when I checked it to my doctor’s system.

20 points can be the difference between a normal blood pressure and stage 2 hypertension! Also, realize that when the Velcro on the cuff wears out (takes about a year), you will have to throw away the entire unit! There is no way to replace the cuff, as there is on the other Omrons.

Very expensive disposable electronics, a complete waste of resources. So much for a “5 year warranty” on something that designed to throw out after a year. I contacted Omron about the massive inaccuracies of this unit and they seemed unphased.

At best you can send it at YOUR expense and they’ll “look at it. ” They refused to swap for an Omron 10, which I’ve found reliable. I need to check BP every day and this is pointless. It’s going in the trash.

I bought this Omron 7450 after researching the brand and model. I paid $105 thinking I will get the best. Unfortunately it wasn’t. First off, The cuff is the stiff plastic type which is bulky for taking around.

Second problem was the instruction book which is not at all clear; omitting steps and assuming the user is an IT ace. The categories of the instruction are full of health advice but lack logical sequence of operations.

The biggest defect was when it came to paring with my Iphone 6 which is accepted by the manufacturer as compatible. Well, you get to a point where the pairing doesnt happen and it keeps asking you to identify whether you are user 1 or user 2.

You confirm but it stops there and it repeats the question everytime you confirm. As a 71 yr old, good at these things, I gave up and called my physician son who tried hard but got stuck where I did.

So at this point I called CVS central 800 number at 9:45 pm on 8Feb2022 and Jill was kind enough to guide me to the way to return this item. Jill was so kind and understanding and understood the frustration.

Omron: It is a shame to put out such a product. CVS: thank you for having a customer service person like Jill. She was perfect. First thing I did today was go to my CVS and return it and have it refunded but losing my 40% coupon that I used in the purchase.

I have a thought that this item could have been a resell of a returned item because the packaging felt like it was no the ‘intact’ type.

I have an older Omron that has been very reliable now for many years – despite multiple use every day by two people. The old Omron appears to only now need a new rubber seal for the cuff hose connection, but I just decided it would be smarter to purchase a new one after so many years of use.

Like the new Omron, the older Omron also recorded every measurement for two people every day and won’t lose the memory – if the batteries aren’t installed and the wall connection is disconnected. I never install the batteries anyway unless there is a power outage.

Who has used it? A 70 year man and his 99 year old mother. Both of us have had serious heart health issues for many years. The Omron has alerted us to heart health issues before they could become fatal or cause more heart damage by alerting us to seek emergency room treatment and hospitalization quickly – and only when one of us has actually needed to be there.

Multiple, including more expensive, other brand monitors I have had were never as reliable as my first Omron. Having now used the new series 10 model Omron, I have found it to be even easier to use than the older Omron (my heart doctor recommended purchasing my first Omron years ago as a replacement).

The new Omron’s cuff is now easier to adjust on the arm due to its formed, snug, clamping style as you put it on and attach the Velcro closure. Using the Omron three multiple readings average feature, we have always used, allows averaging your blood pressure with one turn on of this machine which is the same as the older machine – instead of relying on just one quick reading or having to use the memory to get an average of the three last individual readings.

We both used this feature on the older Omron, but it required sitting still longer. This new Omron allows you to set the interval between the three readings as needed – starting with as short as fifteen second intervals.

Another thing very important to me, as I also have severe arthritis, is the older machine’s cuff would slide around on my arm as I tried to snug and attach it onto my arm with the Velcro – taking much more time, and causing aggravation when painful arthritis levels limit my arm and shoulder movement.

The new machine is also less confusing as there are fewer buttons to press on the front panel (even inadvertently) and it displays the previous average reading with the new average for faster comparison – without pressing additional buttons to go into the machine memory.

This is very important to me when I’m having to take my. 4mg. nitro tabs. The new Omron’s setup for date and time was different from the older one, but I found the supplied instructions covered every feature of operation easily and perfectly.

FYI: Don’t forget to take your blood pressure readings on both the left and right arm during a high reading event. My poor circulation during such events causes a lower reading in my left arm – where the actual high heart reading will show on the right arm.

This little machine is extremely finicky and will make your blood pressure go up with just how frustrating it is. If your arm is even a tiny bit in the “wrong” position, it will flat out refuse to take a reading.

My arm was only slightly too low and it took me forever to figure out what the problem was. The Bluetooth pairing is also pretty frustrating because on my phone it will constantly say “not connected” and after 5 minutes of trying to make it pair the current reading will pop up on the app and I don’t know how it does, but sure.

Also I hate the cuff. I literally have bruises on my arm from it. It is so hard to line up in the correct spot on your arm. This machine was not made for people with chunky arms like mine. It will latch on to your arm and if you try to adjust it to the right position, then good luck.

I hope you have concealer to cover up the bruises.

I bought this to replace an identical one, which I had for several years, which finally just gave out. It would no longer inflate. The new one inflates fine, but it is supposed to slowly deflate as it measures the blood pressure.

It does not, and after three minutes, it gives an “ERR” reading. I have attempted to use it twice daily since I received it, and have not gotten a measurement from it yet. Had to order a different brand, from a different seller.

Very disappointed.

I am assuming that the item works, although it did not have batteries. I checked the entire box as the other reviews said, but nothing. The issue I had was Fed ex left it laying on an uncovered porch in a thunderstorm, and when I picked it up water ran out of it.

The box was completely soaked inside the packaging. Thankfully, none of the quart of water made it into the item itself. Fed ex needs to hire good people, since they backed up to a covered porch and then took the item around my house to an uncovered one so it cd get nearly ruined.

No idea why they thought that was a good idea. But I cant wait to use this and see how it works – as soon as I get batteries!.

As a person with limited understanding of medical/physical matters, I have reasonable belief in this product. There seems enough varience in the body, one moment to the next, and one’s adherence to instructions as to use, that the readings from this monitor are for “general” use rather than specific.

I suspect few people actually remain still for two minutes before starting the monitor and the same applies to having the wrist monitor level with the heart. So results, in my opinion, serve an emotional function rather than a scientific one.

Certainly less bother than a unwieldy arm monitor! To each his own.

This wrist BP monitor is wonderful! Provides lots of information in a very small manageable wrist monitor. Much more user-friendly than our typical arm cuff. Directions are clear and concise in the pamphlet provided as well as reminders inside the storage box which is a sturdy white plastic that will protect the monitor really well.

It is not as heavy as I imagined it might be so overall comfort is not an issue. The velcro wrist will accommodate anyone from a small to a much larger wrist. This will travel well and take up minimal storage.

Well. let me say that I am GLAD I did. First, this monitor is so very SIMPLE! Yes. It takes me less than 15 seconds to have it on my wrist CORRECTLY and ready to begin measuring. It gives results FAST! It has 3 simple buttons and the screen is easy to read.

Most importantly though, I have been impressed with how accurately it reads. It is within just a few points of my manual readings. The one thing that I have to remember though is to keep my arm up at heart level (note to self!).

I would rate the quality at a 5. The product was shipped to me faster than it was promised and it was super easy to use and very intuitive. I appreciated that the batteries were included. It talks to you to tell you what to do, giving you helpful hints to keep the cuff in line with your heart level and it plays soothing music while it measures your blood pressure.

Fantastic ! easy to use! This was recommended to me by my daughter a nurse for its accuracy and ease of use and she was right. Easy instructions audio prompts makes it a breeze. You won’t be disappointed !.

This is probably the best blood pressure kit i ever had! Its great for the elderly or disabled its very accurate.. i love it!

My sister and I are happy with this new machine which we just purchased. We really like that it is electric as well as battery. We are using the included AC adapter cord. We chose this one because we needed a cuff larger than the standard 17″ size, and this monitor comes with an Extra Large cuff.

We both just tried it today, 7-23-22, and it is okay for me; but my sister needs a little smaller cuff, so I will be ordering the standard size cuff for this model for her from HeartRateMonitorsUSA. The issue with the Extra Large cuff is that it is very high up the arm from where it is suppose to sit and then it goes all the way up to my shoulder.

Perhaps the manufacturer could size the width shorter about even one inch. We are only 5’3″ females with big upper arms. It is a small, sturdy machine with large numbers. I highly recommend this monitor.

Thank you, Marianne.

My wife and I love our LifeSource UA-789AC. We first purchased this unit with the Extra-Large Cuff which was too large for both our arms. We purchased the extra-large cuff because we had a large cuff on a different monitor we owned (not a LifeSource Monitor) and it was too small.

We called LifeSource and they made it extremely easy to purchase a Large Cuff for our new monitor, and now my wife and I are thoroughly enjoying our new LifeSource Monitor. Our blood pressure readings have been very consistent time after time, also.

Thank you LifeSource.

Had previous version that worked great. Had its accuracy checked by a local hospital BMET department and it was dead-on. Unfortunately I lost it so bought new one. The older unit used larger batteries (C-cells rather than AA) so they lasted longer.

The cuff (medium supposedly) is likely to be too large (wide) for some users. It only leaves about 1/2″ of clearance between the interior fold of the elbow and the top of the bicep, and I’m a avg. adult male.

Setting the time and date is not intuitive; need to read the directions carefully. Removing the batteries (or dropping it and having the batteries fall out will reset time, date, and all stored readings.

Other than these considerations, it’s a great BP unit. easy to use, accurate, and compact. Note that readings for many people that are taken at home will tend to be less than those taken by doctor or health care professional due to emotional stress of being in a health care setting (a recognized phenomenon called “white coat syndrome”.

Long term home monitoring is more likely to reflect your real-world average bp as opposed to a singular reading at the office. This may affect diagnosis and recommendation (or lack of) drug intervention.

Discuss this possibility with your physician.

We just got our HoMedics Premium Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor With Attached Wrist Cuff recently. It was easy to set up, and the directions are clear/straight forward. You have to relax for a few minutes before test, so I read the directions.

When I was ready to test, I put the arm on the computer desk and positioned the desk chair to the right height. I started the test and got my results. I turned it off immediately to save battery power.

I went into the memory to re-read my results for practice. I was user #1. You can store measurements for two people. Nice to have multiple users. Setting the date and time was easy. The directions say to do three measurements a day for three days to average the true reading overall.

Makes sense. The little unit is easy to read with large numbers. They are lit up good too. You can pair to a blue tooth device and use the app if you choose to. The unit pumps the air just like at the doctors office, and then pulsates for the reading just like at the doctors office.

Very nice unit, and is great for the information I need to keep maintained.

I have an older, different branded wrist blood pressure monitor, and it is confusing to use. This new HoMedics Premium Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor is SO easy to use and not confusing at all. The read-out numbers are very large and easy to understand.

There is no misinterpreting the read-out or the results. The results also show if the blood pressure is high, low, or within the correct range. The monitor allows for two users, and will store up to 120 readings in its memory, so you can keep track of blood pressure over an extended period of time, and report, if necessary, to a doctor, with documented proof held within the memory of this monitor.

This monitor is nearly foolproof and provides the peace of mind needed when there are concerns about blood pressure, and daily monitoring, or monitoring when needed. Great medical device to have around the house for all occasions.

This device was so user friendly that I had it in action before I read the instruction manual. As soon as I set the time and date it started taking accurate readings. You do not have to sync it to your device however the app and feature are also user friendly and useful! The app was HoMedics which was in the App Store as a free download.

I’ve been told that I have an irregular heartbeat and the arm cuff monitors aren’t nearly as comfortable and easy as this wrist band. The fit is so cozy. If it is not placed properly on your wrist the large easy to read screen tells you what to do.

Turn left, right, push up, down, etc. The device takes 2 AAA batteries which are also included in the box. I would definitely recommend this device and I give it 5 stars.

I really like this because I can use it by myself. I like the fact that it talks to me and I don’t have to worry about getting someone else to read it for me since I’m blind. However, there is a third button on the left which I do not know what it does.

I press it and nothing happens. Also I wish there was a way to repeat the last reading so that I can keep it in my journal instead of having to memorize it immediately. but overall it’s still a good product and I do recommend it for blind people! Make sure you read the instructions or have someone Ira, or Be My Eyes help you if you live alone.

Got a new blood pressure medline and worked very good the first time but two weeks later it’s DOA! Changed batteries and tried it 100 times and still dead. I don’t recommend it.

I already own the exact meter and I purchased the one from you as a gift for someone and it’s suppose to be VOICE SPEAKING AND IT’S NOT, Very dissatisfied, now I will be buying another one from some other company.

Thanks.

It’s so hard to find an accurate at-home blood pressure monitor if one exists but through trial and error, I’m cautiously optimistic about this one. However, to get consistent measurements, I had to move the cuff to my right arm.

When I try to measure on my left arm, the readings are all over the place and the “resting indicator” is always red no matter how still I am. On my right arm the indicator is nearly always green. I just leave my cuff at a comfortable size and slide it on/off my right arm when measuring, instead of adjusting the Velcro each time.

The colored hypertension scale on the left side of the monitor is helpful too.

Having the symbol showing if sufficiently relaxed for an accurate reading is a big plus to me. A great deal of research comparing various manufacturers and models made me feel confident this would be accurate.

Previously I have purchased and immediately returned several other brands due to the inconsistency of the readings given when pressure was retaken, not a few points, but 30 or more when taken within a few minutes.

I have been pleased to find with this beurer BM55 the readings have been consistent. The display is very easily read.

This is our first blood pressure monitor. It is compact, sturdy, and fairly easy to use once set up. The initial setup took us a little while to figure out. The screen which displays readings is not a touch screen.

We are not sure how to have access to the stored readings and we did not find instructions in the manual. We like the one-touch design, making daily use simple. Shipping was problematic and can be improved.

As a person with limited understanding of medical/physical matters, I have reasonable belief in this product. There seems enough varience in the body, one moment to the next, and one’s adherence to instructions as to use, that the readings from this monitor are for “general” use rather than specific.

I suspect few people actually remain still for two minutes before starting the monitor and the same applies to having the wrist monitor level with the heart. So results, in my opinion, serve an emotional function rather than a scientific one.

To each his own.

Insignia is a user friendly blood pressure monitor. It works well right out of the box. It is made of durable material and look very professional. The whole family tried and seemed very accurate. We tried the same person for three times and the readings all came out in the same pattern.

Delivery from Best Buy was excellent too, free and fast.

My wife and I have high blood pressure. We were looking at the available blood pressure cuffs out there. We didn’t want to spend a fortune or need anything fancy. This cuff allows both my wife and I to keep track of our readings.

It’s simple to use. We check our pressure twice a day. It doesn’t sync with any app but that’s not a problem for us. Readings are consistent with the nurse when we go to the doctor. We recommend this item.

Easy to use and nothing fancy.
