Title: What a bummer.
Product review: What a bummer. I bought this for a gift for a patient of mine where I volunteer here in Uganda, Africa, and had a friend bring it over. It reads about 20 points below zero with no pressure. It needs calibration straight out of the box. The $5.00 cost to send it in for recalibrating is no help from Afirca, and the poor baseline calibration took all the joy our of giving my patient a self empowering gift, as well as all the value. A total waste of $20.00 There is no way for the user to self calibrate, so all i can do is tell my patient to subtract 20 from his readings. Very dissatisfying.
