SpeedRead Digital Thermometer for Baby, Kids & Adults, Color-Coded Readings, Oral, Baby Rectal Thermometer or Under The Arm, Water Resistant

After my last thermometer quit working, I needed something that would work quickly and easily for my family- with kids ranging in age from 16- 2 months, we all know speed is of the essence (esp when trying to take a toddlers temperature). This thermometer was at a comparable price and it works exactly as stated. I really appreciate the speed readings, esp for the younger kids, and the different indicator lights are great, too. There have been multiple times I've taken someone's temp in the dark and this makes it that much easier to not disturb those that are trying to rest while sick. I also have one of those infrared head reader types of thermometers, but I never know how truly accurate those are, I feel this is a more efficient way to get an accurate reading- which is so important to me when it comes to fevers in kids!

Very nice! Love how quick and easy it is to use! Great value for price! Simple temperature readout ! Prefect size!

This is great and very efficient. Easy to use and has color codes to help read the severity of temperature

I've used a few other quick read thermometers. A few major things I noticed are great about this one in particular; the battery life, the ability to change the battery out, and the quick accuracy in which you get a reading. The waterproof coating makes it easy to sanitize, and you can clean it quickly with some soap and hot water. The display is also really nice, the color coded display lets you know at an instant if you're normal, above grade, or running a fever. It was able to catch a fever as it was starting, which led to being able to get medication in my system and rest before the chills and aches could really set in. It's smooth seamless, and the quickness of it would make it easy to test kids temperature readings without having to sit with it in their mouth for long. Overall a really great product I would gladly buy again!

This is the second Vicks digital thermometer we've purchased. Works great... fast results, easy to use. Disappointed that this model does not include a slide-in storage case to shield the tip from germ when not being used. Guess we will have to put it in a ziplock bag instead.

I’ve had numerous thermometers and I always come back to this one and use it as my favorite because I can see it. I’ve tested it for accuracy against the ones at my doctors office and these are very accurate. The thing that I love best is the lighting on it. It helps me to know if someone’s running a temperature and I can see the numbers more clearly because of the way they’re lit. It’s a great high-quality thermometer had a really great price

Easy to use. Haven't tested out the durability but it feels pretty durable. Reading speed is pretty quick compared to some thermometers that I've owned. Shocked about the price on it for being such a good thermometer.

We've bought this thermometer twice now because it works (and our first one has been misplaced for too long!) It's fast while being pretty consistent and accurate, not an easy combination to come by. Every now and then I'll get an off reading, but just disregard it and take another temp. It's so quick that it's never problematic to run it 2-3 times to verify a temp. I can't recall if it said this in the instructions originally or if it's just something I noticed over time, but don't start to take a temp until the screen reads "Lo" if you want an accurate and quick reading.
