Sleek, modern design, looks to be a reputable product. Great packaging outlining the key features and the product was clearly visible through the packaging. Simple and easy to follow instructions for use. Feels like a sturdy item and great quality. Whilst I do think this
thermometer is great, I feel the price tag is a little steep considering that you have to purchase new lens caps for the thermometer relatively frequently. I would purchase and I would highly recommend. We already had an earlier model of this thermometer that’s we’ve used since Zoe was a newborn, but feel that Braun have improved it greatly now that this version has the light up screen to make it easier to use in a darkened room, plus the great age feature on it that indicates whether the temp being read is safe or too high – this is my favourite feature, as prior to this I would read Zoe’s temp when she was ill and then have to Google whether it was classed as a high temp for her age and the action I should take, whereas I no longer have to do that. I would recommend this thermometer to all parents; it’s a great piece of kit to have! Hayley Topley – Zoe 18 Months

Very good design, everything fits nicely in to the docking bay for the thermometer and it looks very easy to use. The packaging shows exactly what it needs to and gives good general instructions. The amount of packaging inside is good, not too much to be throwing away when done. The item is really straight forward and so were the instructions, there is little complicated about the item. As the little one has been poorly for a week or so now we have had to use the thermometer quite a bit. It is easy enough to use even with a wriggly baby and the results are very obvious, my partner was very happy with the fact it tells you if they are running a temperature as not everyone knows what temperature is too high. Although you do have to buy more protective covers there are quite a few provided, the item itself is very good quality and value for money. Definitely would purchase, it was a lot better than our previous one and not much more expensive. Would highly recommend. The thermometer is very easy to use and understand and so far has been far more reliable and accurate than our previous thermometer. It is not as uncomfortable for our little one so she squirms much less and it stores the additional covers within the dock which makes it easier to keep them at hand. All in all a very good, simple product which does the
trick. Michael Higginson – Ella 18 Months

Excellent product, a must have for anyone with a baby or child. Good external product packaging, also like the holder that the thermometer sits in too which protects the lensn that goes into the ear. Instructions very easy to understand, product is easy to work out for yourself too without reading the instructions too as it has a simple scroll display to select whose temperature you are taking (baby, child or adult), this is called age precision. Quality of product is good as would be expected for a brand such as Braun. The memory function is good. When you switch on the thermometer it always remembers the last reading that was taken and you can store 9 previous readings too. A little on the pricey side, there are other thermometers on the market that are cheaper. Taking into account the memory feature, the age precision feature and the red, amber green function I think this product offers good value for money. Only downside is that you do have to purchase additional lens filters, so this is not a one off purchase and these items have to be bought in order to use the product. I would buy the product, good features and a nice design. I would recommend this product. Overall a good product, very easy to use without reading the instructions. Like age precision function and the red, amber and green indicator whether the temperature reading is normal, too high or too low. The speed at which you can take a temperature 2-4 seconds, perfect if you have a wriggly baby you’re trying to take the temperature of. Nicola Jennifer George – Cameron 13 Weeks
