Instead of buying something else, buy The device works as it should. It is easy to use and easy to read. It also has a fast result time. I ordered them for that reason. Two are needed as we need one to work and one as a backup in the event of an Sometimes, such is the case with chronic illnesses when a careful observation of temperature is required. 27% of the reviews of this product are for One Star products. I can probably think of a few reasons why. It seems like the problem keeps happening to people. There is a malfunction with the device. Isn't even turning on any more. In my opinion, this device is of low quality and poorly designed. It's possible we receive a battery that has already been worn down from one of the old batches. Even though there is a relatively low cost A 9-dollar bill. With a price of 50 for one, it is not worth all the time and effort to ship it back and have it replaced. It's just that I'll try a different brand.
I think it would be wise for the manufacturer to address the concerns of a large number of people who experience the same issue. I would like to offer this advice to those reading this review This is not something you should buy. Make sure you try a different brand that has a better rating.
Even though it comes with a battery, it ships within the device and mine was dead by the time I was ready to use it for the first time. The directions mention 2016, but I am not sure when it was assembled. It was later found that the battery is too small at Home Depot and Additionally, you should purchase some CR1225 silver oxide batteries to go with it if you decide to purchase this.
We had a first one that worked for many years, then started reading low suddenly. (Our other thermometer indicated 96 F when it said 1) Changing the battery did not improve this problem. The Amazon customer service team refunded my money The product ) is not recommended by me.
When I attempted to return it, I was not allowed to - The add-on probably made sense to me since it was a standalone.
Medical thermometers such as this one are incredibly easy to use and Changing from Celsius to Fahrenheit is possible. As well, as your temperature rises, the display lights up in color, green indicating a normal temperature, yellow a slight fever, and red a fever that is above normal. If you're lying on your back in the dark, or if you don't have your glasses on and can't distinguish the actual degrees for some reason, this feature is great. While I would recommend this thermometer, I have knocked off one star because it has indicated a low battery since the day I purchased it, even though it's a brand new device, still sealed in the As a result, I am able to understand why other reviewers experience problems with their thermometer from day one. As I said before, aside from the low battery warning, the thermometer has never given me a problem aside from the very, very rare inaccurate reading, which could be caused by a multitude of reasons, so I'm not even considering it.
It will even stop working on the screen at random.
I have had my Vicks thermometer for about four years and recently noticed that the battery was low (Lo) I thought I replaced it. Due to the difficulty I had in finding a battery replacement. Instead of buying a brand new thermometer, I decided to just order one. It took a whole month before it arrived (pandemic effect), but I happened to find a replacement When I used the new battery to set up my old thermometer, the Lo symbol continued to appear. It was assumed that the batteries were duds. I was excited when I received my new thermometer. You know what I found out? Lo was also in it. Rather than assuming the instructions would simply appear, I finally decided to actually read the manual. It means nothing more than that the thermometer is ready for use, and that the Lo symbol is simply indicating that it is ready to use.
We learned the following lesson Reading my instruction manuals more often is a good idea. Having a thermometer that is fast and accurate is very valuable to me. You can ensure you're able to use the battery for years to come, regardless of the difficulty of finding it. You can't go wrong with the price either.
While I wasn't feeling well, I made an appointment with a doctor, took my temperature with this product right before I left for the appointment First thing they did when I arrived at the doctor's office was take my temperature, which was 99 degrees. I have a low grade fever on day 7! My job is essential, so I depended on this to make sure I would be able to go to work every day. The result of the tests is pending and I was put under quarantine until they get back to me. I have closed my eyes and prayed that I do not have COVID and that I did not expose anyone else because I didn't receive accurate information from this product! I will never buy from this company.
