Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This device makes monitoring both blood pressure and pulse easy. Just strap on the comfortable cuff, push a button, and squeeze the inflation bulb to achieve the proper inflation level. (A step-by-step operating guide accompanies the device.) As the cuff deflates, reliable pressure and pulse readings appear on a large, easy-to-read digital display. Use the memory feature to display previous readings for easy reference. The cuff fits arms from 9-1/2 to 12-5/8 inches in circumference, and cuffs for arms of other sizes are available from Mabis. The monitor operates on four AA batteries (included) and carries a five-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars Mabis BP Monitor, April 30, 2002

This review is from: Mabis 04-203-001 Digital Manual Blood Pressure Monitor (Health and Beauty)

The Mabis BP Monitor is easy to use. The digital read out is nice and big. Only has 2 buttons (one is power the other is memory). It remembers the last reading taken. But best of all is customer service. There is an 800 number on the back of the unit. We needed a larger cuff than came with the unit. There were no questions asked other than the model number (which is also on the back of the unit) and where the cuff needed to be shipped. And there was not even a shipping charge. I highly recommend this unit. It is reliable and there is customer service if it is needed.

This review is from: Mabis 04-203-001 Digital Manual Blood Pressure Monitor (Health and Beauty)

I was introduced to this product because my grandparents were told by their doctor to get a machine so they could monitor their own blood pressures. When the got this particular machine, they called me to come over and make sure they were using it correctly since I am in the medical field.

The machine itself was pretty easy to understand what to do and the directions were pretty clear. The only problem I had was that the bulb that you have to inflate proved to be extremely difficult for my grandparents to use because of the arthritis in their hands. This meant that either I had to take it or my grandmother had to inflate the cuff with one hand while the cuff was placed on the other arm. This posed her with some questions about the reliability of the readings.

While this may seem like a pretty simple machine to operate, if you have any hand problems, this is probably not the machine for you.

If you want a very easy to use, inexpensive, blood pressure monitor, this is for you. It is very easy to assemble and even though it does not inflate automatically, it is very easy to inflate and that's all you have to do, inflate then sit back and wait for your blood pressure and pulse. I had bought a model that uses the stethescope which was almost impossible to do by myself and it cost almost as much as this model. Wish I would have checked Amazon (like I usually do) before making my first purchase.
