I recently bought the Oregon Scientific BPW813 Talking Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor. It is an excellent product. It is quite compact and attaches easily to your wrist with a pre-formed velcro secured cuff. You press one button and it pumps up the cuff then automatically releases the pressure in spurts. In a shorter time than it takes me with a manual BP machine it is done. You can have it speak your blood pressure or just read it off the digital screen. The voice part works fine, but I only used it once as I don't want to tax the batteries, and so far I am on the original batteries that came with the unit . It keeps a history of your readings for yourself or to show your physician.

I am delighted with the product.

One of the reasons I bought this product is that I have two Oregon scientific indoor/outdoor thermometers as well, and have given these for gifts, and they work extremely well. One has been working for a long time.

My fiance' and I are happy to have our blood pressure monitor. He is blind, so the talking voice helps a great deal. He can also hear mine and we compare! This is a very reliable instrument, but make sure to take 3 readings and get an average for an accurate reading. It is very nice in that it gices you the artial pressure reading. When I compare it to my arm pressure cuff, it is fairly accurate.

I highly recommend this to anyone wanting a convient way to take pressure.

Works great for visually impair individuals. Clear easy to understand voice, and easy to use.

The product was delivered promptly, exactly as describe in literature. The voice is clear, loud and very easily understood. I was disappointed in that the measurements were in mm of hg However I disconnected the battery and

reconnected it and the unit has worked as described, since. I am happy with it.

The voice is clear and gives good information and retains it in the memory. I do get frustrated as it seems to error quite often and I have to try several times to get a reading on many ocassions. I do wonder how accurate it is to take the bp at the wrist but the cuff does enable me to keep track in some way as I am legally blind. It is ten points off from the one in my Dr.'s office. It does look nice and is easy to operate.
