OmronGold Blood Pressure Monitor - Clinically Validated Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor - Use OMRON Connect App for Unlimited Free Measurements

Purchased for 93 year old mother. Mom already had an Omron BP monitor for upper arm, but found it difficult to use, so bought this Omron “wrist” type BP monitor for her to try. As it turned out, Physical Therapy guy was there when new wrist BP monitor delivered so he had the opportunity to test it against his personal BP monitor as well as Mom’s existing upper arm BP monitor. After comparing the results of all three BP monitors, he found all to record accurate readings. So, this new wrist style gave us accurate readings and was easy (per Mom) to use. I know other folks that purchased this wrist style have encountered various problems, but we have not had any problem whatsoever. Mom loves it.

So easy to use ,easy to see numbers fits great on my wrist, I love the easy of sending to my doctor.a must have for B/P control in my opinion

I use it daily to check my blood pressure.

Mis controles ahora son en verdad diarios y es una excelente opción de monitorización por su tamaño y practcidad!

I have an Omron BP652 cuff purchased ten years ago. I misplaced it and decided to buy this ‘upgrade’ rather than waste time and frustration looking for my old cuff.Instead, I wasted about 75 bucks and bought hours of frustration and a device I’ll toss in a drawer and hope to forget. First off, the instructions say to get the app, pair with bluetooth, and it will set the time and date on its own. Although I had no intention of using an app and phone to take my BP, I did as instructed… or tried.After nearly an hour of failed attempts to pair the device, it finally linked with the app. However, it did not set the date and time. I tried to det the date and time manually. Fail.Ah then, now to take a reading. Over and over and over again, I get ‘E4’ — I supposedly moved. Well no, I did not move, other than to breathe. Tried over and over again. ‘E4.’Evidently this device will only read your blood pressure after you’ve ceased breathing.After two hours of futility, I went searching for my old BP652. Found it. Still works. No, it doesn’t have all the buzzers and bells. Yes, it whirs when the cuff inflates… big whoop. It also will not send my medical info to a hacker in China.Save your do re mi. Don’t run your blood pressure up messing with this ridiculously user unfriendly device. I’m just as fed up as one can be over an inexpensive little electronic appliance. I’ll either try to return it — still more hassle I had not bargained for — or just take a mallet to the thing and dump it, which would be a lot more gratifying.ADDENDUM: Just try to return this item. You will be given three options — ‘troubleshoot it yourself,’ waste your time with online support from amazon, or waste your time with online support from the manufacturer. I’d rather eat a bowl of ground glass than jump through those hoops, thanks. If the product is this difficult to use, the product shouldn’t be on the market for home use. I’ll eat the purchase price and chalk it up to experience.

My old wrist blood pressure gave up the ghost and I replaced it with this one. I find this one is much better, seems more accurate, wrist strap easy to use and big enough for any wrist. Very happy with this purchase!

Pretty accurate

I just got this today and found the set up very tiresome and not as easy to do even for someone who is tech savvy like myself. I’ll add that I have dexterity problems from arthritis in my hands which you can clearly see in the pictures associated with this review.I’m going to start with the Cons first while the information and aggravation is still fresh in my mind. I don’t usually review things right away but in this case I thought it would be a good idea to do so please keep that in mind when and if you read this review.Cons:1. Getting the blood pressure cuff paired with the Bluetooth on my phone was kind of a nightmare. First of all, the Bluetooth button is cleverly disguised in a place where you wouldn’t think to look for it— under the device on the opposite side of the battery compartment. The instructions that come with it are not that helpful in locating the various parts of the device. Therefore, I spent a good hour and wasted it trying to get the Bluetooth connected to my phone. I felt like I needed a few extra fingers or hands in order to do that because you have to hold down the Bluetooth button awkwardly while watching the display on the front of the device.2. The display is very faint and you have to be able to see gray on gray in order to make out the numbers. This might be a problem if you have vision issues.3. Synching the cuff to the app didn’t work for me so I had to add the newest readings manually in the app. It did however, sync the one reading before I set the date, so January 1st appears to be the start date. I’ll investigate this further and update if I get it right. Or wrong, as the case may be.All in all I spent about 2 hours just getting a couple of test bp readings. Kind of a waste of my valuable retirement time.Pros:1. This is Lightweight and compact so it is easy to put on and takeoff. It has a long Velcro attachment and could easily fit all sizes of wrists except for maybe children’s sizes. My wrist is very small and it fit comfortably with lots of Velcro to spare.2. This blood pressure cuff is very quiet and from what I can see it seems to be accurate. Currently my blood pressure is running pretty low so I have to monitor it more than usual. I appreciate that this is small and could fit in a suitcase or a backpack easily if you want to travel with it. Since it supposedly connects via Bluetooth you wouldn’t really need any Wi-Fi nearby in order to transfer the readings to the app on your phone, Although the app could be a little more user-friendly I thinkOne of the pictures shows where the Bluetooth button is. The other picture is the compact size of the wrist cuff.I will receive a different blood pressure cuff in a couple of days and I will compare these two and keep the one that is most user-friendly for me. I have arthritic hands and ease and comfort are some of the most important things to me other than accuracy of course.
