Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Thermoscan 1-second Read Thermometr , 1-second Read-out
Customer Review: Ask your pediatrician about ear thermometers
Summary: 2 Stars
We bought this and regret it. If you suspect a fever, and call your doctor with a temp from this thermometer, she will ask you to take it again with a more accurate rectal temp. Our hospital gave us a rectal thermometer along with other baby supplies. Customer Review: I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is great and works wonderfully. My 3 year old granddaughter was sent home from school with a temp. I had no problem taking her temp with this and checking to see if it went down after her meds. She never fussed or minded me using it either. Her mom has the one that you rub over the forehead and I can never get that one to work properly. This one is terrific. Customer Review: Batteries always dead!
Summary: 3 Stars
I love this thermometer but it seems to go through batteries very quickly. I think that I am going to start taking the batteries out of it when it is not in use. It is really frustrating to grab it to take my baby's temp and have the batteries dead.Customer Review: Don't Buy
Summary: 1 Stars
This is the worst thermometer!!! We bought this for our son (who is now 4) thinking it would be easy enough to use and better then the old fashion way but we were wrong. When he was 10 days old he wasn't acting himself not eating and seemed like he was hot so we took his temp. but the thermometer said he was fine. We didn't think he was so we called his pediatrician and found out he was running a 103.5 temp!!! Thank God for doctors. I think this thermometer might work IF you can find the right place to put it in the ear. We are just going to go the old fashion way with our next baby due in Dec.Customer Review: Breaks easy and not accurate
Summary: 2 Stars
After purchasing three (call me a slow learner) of these products - and having all of them break - I would not recommend it. The ear piece is temperamental and provides inaccurate readings. Not being able to get an accurate reading when you have a sick child is worse than not having a thermometer! Continually putting a new covering on the ear piece every time you use it is a hassle too. Save yourself the hassle and buy the fever strip stickers or temporal thermometers!
