We got the OMRON HEM 609 because our doctor was using it on patients at is office. It is very easy to use and very accurate.
Because I am overweight, my doctor recommended that I keep track of my blood pressure. Since the cuffs at the automated machines at drug stores and Wal-Mart were always too small for me to get an accurate reading, I purchased this model for ease of use. It's quite convenient. I find myself testing my pressure several times a day. Sometimes just for fun.
It appears to be accurate as well. Some reviewers have claimed that it's readings are low, but I've been getting results consistent with the doctor's readings when he uses the large arm cuff. I've always gotten higher results when I'm at the automated machines with the standard cuff.
I like the memory function as well. It stores 90 readings and will provide and average of your readings as well. This is handy since my pressure fluctuates 10 to 20 points depending on what time of day it is, when I last ate, or how long I've been sedentary. I would recommend this to those of you who need to keep track of your blood pressure but don't want the hassle of an arm cuff.
I noticed that 2 people questioned the accuracy of this device. After having a stroke, my life depends on the accuracy of this unit. I test it regularly in my Dr's office (more than 1 Dr too) to make sure-it's always on the money. Easy to use, too-not like many others. I love it.
Excellant! works wonderfully well. I would endorse this anytime. I was totally upset with Amazon policy of issuing a promotional certificate (part of the rebate money) after 6 months of purchase. If you think you are going to get to spend that in a gift certificate or buy something you have to wait 6 months or more. I found this out after a gruelling 20 minutes with a customer service person who offered to help but gave the same line of information again and agian and again... so much for cusomer service!
