The Braun Healthcare Baby Kit - health essentials for use at home and on the go (ear thermometer IRT6520, nasal aspirator BNT050, stick thermometer PRT2000)

Can't recommend this hermometre enough. I took my son to the doctor for an ear infection and this was the type he used, although I am not sure it is the exact same model. Seeing how easy it was I came back and bought this immediately.Incredibly easy to use. Turn on, select age range, pop it in the ear and press a button. The whole sequence probably takes 5 seconds and is so much simpler than using an under the armpit thermometer. They are slow and would often give out slightly different readings each time. Plus trying to hold a baby's arm down when they are upset and ill, is difficult and will often upset them more.They barely notice this is their ear and its quick and accurate. Best thing is you can use it for adults too. Comes with a pack of disposable tips as well, so if the baby has a bit of wax in their ear, you don't have to clean the thermometer constantly.Another useful feature is the memory function, which remembers the previous temperature taken. Great when you are trying to track whether your baby's temperature is going up or down, especially because I always forget the exact reading a few hours later.

Bought this because I am having problems with recurrent illness and hypothermia. My normal thermometer was reading my temp as 32C which is classed as an emergency, although the same one read my husband's temp as normal. By the I get to the doc, my temp has normalised and they don't believe me. This is the same model as the GP, so next time I am ill, I can check my temp accurately.BUT, the instructions say location of device is crucial and a light and beep will go to tell you it is correctly positioned before pushing the start button. This doesn't happen. My temp looks OK at the moment, so fingers crossed I am locating it properly. It isn't easy to know if you are far enough in, or pointing at 'opposite temple' as instructed.

This product is excellent in both its design and use, great value, for money and must if you have small children, used this an many occasions , could be aa life saver on any one occasion.jd
