[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved this thermometer recently and was pretty excited about it. It's very easy to use with just two buttons on the front and reads very fast. The issue I have with it is that it's not accurate. Unfortunately it's useless if it isn't accurate. I took my temperature and my daughters temperature 3 plus times and they kept coming back high, around 99. I used two other thermometers to compare which both read around 97 and 98 degrees for both of us. My temperature on this one read as high as 99.5 which signaled as a low fever. I definitely do not have a fever and am not sick. I'm disappointed with this thermometer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to get this thermometer since I have a 1.5 year old and struggle with getting his temperature. I tried taking both mine and his and both read 96-97 degrees. I couldn't get his orally but I took mine and it was 98.7 immediately after trying the forehead thermometer. It looks nice and well made but it isn't accurate which is the whole point of the product.

Within 15 seconds I got 99.3, 96.7, and 98.0. It’s garbage

I bought this thermometer less than one month ago and it’s not working. Won’t stay lit up and reads 95 repeatedly. We changed the batteries thinking it was that but it did the same thing with new ones. I don’t think I can return this since I threw away the packaging. I am really disappointed.

I never give review. This is the first time I had to write this. Worst thermometer I ever purchased. Please please don’t waste money. Just received it and it’s giving wrong temperatures. Going to return. Can’t expect this from this brand.

The readings are inaccurate. You still get five different numbers consecutively within just a few seconds.

Does not provide accurate readings. I contacted Braun and all they did was cut and paste instructions in an email to me. I know how to hold a device to someone's head and push a button.... I want my $ back.

Totally inaccurate! Just had a baby and am a very nervous momma. Went to go take his temperature and it consistently says he has a fever. When I tried it on me it says I also have a fever. Am going to return this ASAP and get something that actually works. Do NOT buy this!

We recently purchased this forehead thermometer and when it initially worked it was easy and quick. The problem was that it started giving dramatically incorrect readings after a few uses. We verified that the readings were incorrect with other thermometers and logic. I don't think you have a fever of 102 and then 94 ten minutes later. If you do buy one of these, make sure you have a backup.

This is an extremely inaccurate thermometer. It would give me a 102.5 reading and a regular under the tongue thermometer would have a normal 98.6. And each time I would take a temperature, on the same child, it would vary greatly.
