Negative Positive
Title: Good buy.
Review: The reading is not as accurate as the oral/underam/rectal thermometer, but given that it is next to impossilble to hold my one year old down long enough to get his underarm temperature reading I found the Braun Thermoscan to be really usefull.One thing to keep in mind is that the readings vary in a range of .5 degrees over a couple of readings. So I tend to average it out and if the temperature is at or over a 100, I also double check with the underarm thermometer. It's a very convient device and you can take your childs temparature when they are sleeping or distracted. The only problem is that the readings are not very consistent. i.e if you check your childs temperature a number of times, the readings you get will have a range of about .5 degres.
