    I picked up my order through curbside, pick up and the box was empty. So I had to go inside to the courtesy desk. I was given another one by a sales associate. And the second one does not even work. It turns on and quickly turns off, so I don't get a reading at all.It's malfunctionin.

    Literally just purchased October 22nd, used it twice in the last two days and the battery is already dying. Takes forever to get a reading, glad I used it myself before testing on a baby because I cannot imagine a baby sitting still long enough to get an accurate reading. Will be purchasing something different before baby actually arrives.

    30 seconds is way too long! Esp with a screaming baby when using this as a rectal thermometer. Also not sure if the reading is acurate as we have gotten various temps.

    Varies by 1 degree from reading to reading sometimes and 30 seconds is an eternity with a baby! My son pees like crazy so this is a no go, I think he’s peed on himself 5x while using this. My advice is to get one that reads faster if measuring rectally.

    Right after I received this my daughter got sick and I was so happy to have this on hand. She is a toddler and we've always used thermometers meant for the other end but as she gets older and more opinionated she's decided she's not a fan so I'm super happy to have an another option for now on. Was quick, easy, and no fighting!

    Easy and reliable thermometer

    This thermometer is simple to use and accurate. I use it for my 4 yr old twins under their tongue. I've also tried forehead and ear thermometers but I have found them to be less reliable and too complicated for our nanny/grandparents to use without instruction. Love that this one is just straightforward and easy.

    I do not want to get out instructions on how to take a temperature that's why this Grandma keeps it old school with a thermometer that does the job. I can read the digital screen with my old eyes and know when its time to call Mom or Dad! Works like new every I need it and its accurate.

    Used this thermometer on my toddler who has been fighting a nasty cold - the under arm feature was great and worked quickly! Accurate and easy to use - great size too, fits nicely in diaper bag without taking up valuable room!

    This thermometer is great for babies who will sit still but tough with a toddler. It doesn't read the temperature immediately but increases incrementally with time until the temperature is read taking up to 20 seconds to read. It is accurate just take longer than some of the others I have

    It's true to its claim that you get fast results and get the temperature at 30seconds but you won't change F to C even if I long pressed the power button whether if it was turned on or off.

    Inconsistent readings.

    It gives always different readings. If you take the measurements 4 times in a row, likely no reading will be the same. Sometimes up to almost 1 degree Celsius range. When your baby is sick, you won't want to be taking 4-5 measurements to decide whether to medicate then or not, but you will have to do it with this thermometer. Sad.

    This has worked great. It read more accurate than our forehead thermometer and is not terrible uncomfortable for my daughter to use who is three. It read quickly and is very durable. I would recommend it.

    I have tried this thermometer over and over and the reading are way off! It's saying that my sons temo is 96.4. I even used it on myself and it says I'm 97.0. I've used a different thermometer and it said 98.7. I'm very upset because with the flu season I needed a reliable thermometer for my two kids. And I literally just bought it a week ago. I wish I would of kept a receipt. I definitely won't be buying this brand again.

    I enjoy this 3-in-1 NurseryThermometer. I like that it is not bulky. It is easy to hold and use. I am impressed by the display on this thermometer. It is very easy to read. The beep alert once complete is loud enough for you to hear. My kids love having the temperature checked. Even for no reason. I love having this on hand. It seems to be fairly quick. I is easy to hold in place. I live the fact that you can take this anywhere with you. It is small enough to carry with you without adding extra weight. I like the size of this thermometer. In the end I would recommend this. I did receive this in exchange for my review. However, it had no bearing on my review. I like this thermometer. I would tell my friends and family to buy this. It is one you need to have either as a primary or a backup.
