- Personal choice by most RN's at home ...
My wife purchased this digital thermometer after pouring herself over hours of research and reading. Being an audiophile and a Registered Nurse, she's one of those people that reads the manual on everything first, never makes an impulse purchase and often times calls the company directly via the phone numbers listed on the packaging (which she usually copies down in the store).
I had purchased a different thermometer for her as birthday present, but that's a whole other story. ... Read More

- Not so hot
This model did not work as well as the $19 model I bought later at Wal Mart. I ended sending this one back.
Rating: - Fast Easy and Dependable Worth the Money
I have used a few other products and they were junk but the Braun IRT4520 gets the job done. Light weight and easy to use and durable. I like the battery option using two AA's than others who have the small flat disk types.When it comes to my kids health I want to get the information quickly and comfortable as I can. I found that this thermoscan worked so well I bought two of them one for me and one as a gift.

- Good product, but needs some improvements
Sturdy and easy to use. My 2-year-old kid loves having her temp taken with this thing. In fact she can do it herself.
However, if you take two readings from the same ear in quick succession, the readings can vary as much as 1 degree. That makes me wonder how accurate and consistent this thing is.
Separately, the display is not back-lit, and this is an inconvenience when taking temperatures in the dark.
Rating: - Happy Mom
I almost didn't buy an ear thermometer because my Pediatrician will only accept an rectal temp but my kids are too squirmy for that - even when they are sick.However, every time I have taken a rectal temp the temperature has matched the ear temp exactly.In the middle of the night, when my daughter is crying so hard that she can't talk - it is a life saver.I know within 3 seconds if I am dealing with a suprise fever or a just a bad dream.
