Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Easier than the other option...
I chose this thermometer for my 10-month old son. I never liked using a rectal thermometer for a number of reasons, and I figured if they use the ear therm in doctors' offices it has to be a good option.
The name of the game seems to be getting the probe all the way in the ear canal, which for babies means pulling the outer ear back so that the middle ear (ear canal) is accessible. This can be a little tricky with one parent holding a squirmy baby, pulling on the ear, getting the therm in and ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not Accurate (Too High)
Got this last week. Tested it out on my family and also for myself only compared with the oral thermometer we have been using. I don't mind the variability, which seems to be roughly plus/minus 0.5 degree F. What I don't like is that it seems to average about 1.5 degrees F too high. Specifically, the oral has me at 98.7 but the first 5 repeats with Safety 1st ranged from 99.9 to 101. My wife's readings also came in over 100. Maybe we just got a bad one.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Safety First (Accuracy Second)
This thing is quick (~1 second) but wildly inaccurate. The instructions note how you're supposed to place it *just* right in the ear canal, by holding/pulling your ear back just so and inserting this into the ear canal so there is a good seal.

Even if this is done I've gotten wildly different temperatures, even on my own ear multiple times using the same method of placement. I took my wife's temperature (when we got this, to test it out) and according to this she had a fever of 101.3, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Safety 1st Hospital's Choice Ear Thermometer
This product is great and I received it very quickly
Totally non invasive and my son does'nt mind when I use
it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Ideal with infants
I love it! This pacifier thermometer is ideal for young infants, providing comfort to the child while letting you check baby's temperature. Quick and easy to understand, I suggest you to buy also probe covers to keep it clean. One of the best tools, if you have kids around!
