I bought this kit to practice for an EMT class I'm taking. The stethoscope has a clear sound, and there the soft ear buds make for a more comfortable fit than the standard hard plastic ones.

For use in the field, I'd probably buy a better -scope, but this suits the needs of one needing something for home/class use.

I purchased this to monitor blood pressure while on a medication that could effect blood pressure. Both the sphygmomanometer and the stethoscope worked fine for home use and my wife and I were able to make reasonably accurate readings. However, the tubing in the cuff sprung a leak after less than a dozen uses and the unit cannot be repaired economically.

This product is for infrequent, novice, home users only.. The included steth works ok for BP measurement..but chest sounds/heart beats are almost inaudible. The double tube stethoscope creates too much noise during use. This item has been returned.

I strongly recommend:
1. 3M Littmann Master Classic II stethoscope (It is a little pricey..but so worth it) 3M Littmann Master Classic II Stethoscopes, BLACK
2. ADC Diagnostix 700 Sphygmo ADC Diagnostix 700 Pocket Aneroid Sphygmomanometer Sphygmomanometer, Adult, Black

I must say that after seeing several of my wife's BP (blood pressure) kits this was the most dependable reliable one we have found for especially the price it was marked at. Very sturdy doesn't seem cheap and works great. I would definately reccommend this product to anyone in search of a great Blood Pressure Cuff and Sphygmomanometer.

I never received this item. I tracked it through the provided tracking number which indicates that it was delivered to my front door on December 8, 2009. However, no one in my household has seen or accepted this item. What should I do?

The stethescope was very poor quality, somehow you could hear background noise better than a heart beat. The items were returned immediately and refunded promptly.

i am a personal trainer so i use this often but not as often as a doctor/physician would. however i would not use for exercise testing (only for pre and post exercise measurements). reason being that the pressure gauge is attached to the cuff so if you have arm movement it can be extremely hard to read. the stethoscope that comes with it is also not the best but i can hear the sounds clearly. overall this package is definitely worth the price but as a professional if you can afford a better one.. go for it

This product is so much better than an electronic version I purchased at a retail store!

It is very convenient and easy to use. I like the case; it fits everything inside. It is very light and I use for travel with my patient.

Manometer and pump were not attached to cuff tubing. Had to put pieces together with a bit of difficulty as rubber hose is very thick and not that flexible. But once pieces are connected, works well.
