It measures very quickly and compared to 2 other thermometers there is always a difference, sometimes higher, sometimes lower!

perfect for babies! accurate in measurements and very fast
it has colors based on the temperature so you know whether or not it is within the normal range for each age group
excellent!

It has a deviation from the regular thermometer if you check it at the 8 seconds when it beeps that it's ready. If the child is sleeping and I leave it on for longer, it keeps rising until it reaches the correct temperature

For us, it's one of the best thermometers.. And we've tried quite a few.. I'm just emphasizing this because many people talk about incorrect and different measurements.. Rule, it must be placed correctly to measure because it is very sensitive.. If it is not applied correctly to the baby, it gives a wrong measurement.. At first, we experienced this too.. But once you find it.. Proper placement makes no mistake in measurement! The only downside is that it should have had a light from the start when it turns on.. So you can see the readings..

The child was burning up with fever and this showed 3 different measurements within 3 minutes, none of which were correct. Making it super fast, but showing whatever, doesn't help at all! Too bad for Braun!

I don't trust the measurements.. I have to do 4-5 and take an average.. when it comes to a baby who doesn't have patience it's just a hassle... and you always end up with anxiety...

Completely unreliable and dangerous measurements. It is not possible to have deviations of the order of 1.5° C. Both the thermometer and the company are worthless.

We have had this thermometer for about a year and a half.
Let's go to the negatives:
1. Screen lighting: Unacceptable. You need to turn on a light to see it. In the middle of the night, it's guaranteed that you will wake up or at least disturb the child.
2. Measurement accuracy: To get a reading close to the actual temperature, you must first place the metal tip of the thermometer exactly in the middle of the armpit, being very careful not to have it between a shirt or onesie. However, even then you are only approximately correct, as measurement from measurement with the exact same method has a deviation.

Positives:
Speed. Only. Which in the end may also be the reason for the negatives.

The light does not turn on when you select age. And it's very inconvenient that you have to select age every time.

Easy and quick after use, I believe it is a very good purchase!

Very easy to use and the time required for the result does not pose a problem for the baby

The measurements in general are correct, it is easy to use and very fast. The button to select the age group broke after about 2 years and I bought a new one.

One of my best purchases as a new mom! Fast, easy to use, and accurate in measurements (I tested it with a mercury thermometer to be sure during a fever phase). It's worth it!

After two years of frequent use, I have two things to say. The measurements are approximately accurate, but in no way are they 100% correct like a mercury thermometer. Additionally, it broke after two years.

Very bad thermometer. From the very first use, it had different readings from 36.5 to 37.8 and they were all wrong since the child had 38.3. Also, regarding the lighting, while I had read reviews and considered it a negligible problem, it is actually a big issue as you can't even press the button for age with light. Very disappointed with the company.

I bought it because reading the reviews I thought it was great. The child was burning with fever. I put it on and it showed 37.4, I put another one I had... 38.9. I said "it can't be. I didn't put it correctly". Without further ado, I tried it 3 times. And all 3 times it showed below 37.5. It's not the batteries' fault. It's not due to any mishandling from the beginning, as it showed a significant deviation from the temperature the children had when I bought it.
Also, the screen that illuminates well, from the beginning when it opens until the end. If I have to turn on the light at night to see the temperature and wake up the children, it doesn't make sense.
Even if it was free, I do not recommend it

Unfortunately, I didn't pay attention to the reviews, I didn't imagine how bad an expensive Braun thermometer can be. The worst thing I have ever seen, in 10 measurements you can have 10 different results and sometimes with significant deviations. Deviations at the level of having a fever of 38 and showing a normal reading. Highly prohibitive for infants, where it is supposed to be intended

There is an accuracy issue. And the problem has to do with the speed of measurement.
For some inexplicable reason, Braun wanted to make it incredibly fast, which unfortunately has the downside that many times it will show you an incorrect (lower) temperature.

If you repeat the measurement 2 - 3 times, the 2nd or 3rd time you will get the correct measurement, but for me, this is a problem.
In the end, I got another one from Citizen that can measure in 1 minute, but you can be sure that the measurement is accurate.

This one here often takes a measurement in 4-5 seconds

It broke in one and a half years and after minimal use. The measurements are consistent only from 37.5 degrees Celsius and above. Below this temperature, every time you take a measurement, you will get a different result with a large deviation.

It is very good. Fast in measurements and most of the times reliable. I always do 2-3 measurements to make sure

The thermometer is great and in repeated measurements it does not show significant deviations. The flexible tip and the large screen are convenient... overall it seems like a quality device.

The only lack that I also notice is that, although it has a backlight for the unnecessary function of selecting age group (just to indicate whether the measurement indicates high fever or not), this backlight is deactivated when showing the temperature!
It may sound like a detail but it is a huge flaw since the backlight already exists in the device.

Apart from that, the job is done correctly and the product is considered honest for its price.

Before taking a measurement, hold the metal part in your hand for a few seconds to get an accurate reading. This is to bring it to the correct temperature faster.
The 3 age options it has are to display the corresponding color and do not affect the measurement. So, in whichever option you choose, it will show the same temperature, regardless of whether it is a baby or an adult. A few seconds after the measurement, the screen will light up so that you can see the temperature even in the dark

The device has all sorts of measurements. One 37.4, one 38.1, one 36.4... all over the place. Also, sometimes the measurement is completed in seconds, but most of the time it takes 20 or 30 seconds and even then the measurement doesn't successfully complete in the end. Before buying it, I had read almost all the reviews and I was deceived. I do not recommend it because it does not have reliable measurements at all and most of the time it takes a long time to measure. It's really a waste of money. I have no reason to lie to you. Stay away..

The measurements are all over the place.... no reliability... and even if you take the temperature 10 times, it will give you 15 different results... it's not worth it and it's also expensive

It never takes 8 seconds as it claims, it takes longer. As for the measurements and accuracy, if you take 3-4 consecutive measurements, it almost always gives a different result. The color (green, red) helps a lot to immediately understand if the baby has a fever or not.

I can't understand the high ratings. Compared to a mercury thermometer, it shows a difference of up to 1.5 degrees.

You can do 6 different measurements per minute and each one will give a different result... in the end, you have to guess which one is the correct temperature among all the ones it showed. Defective... Waste of money...

The worst. Ten times I measured the baby, and it gave ten different readings. And of course, it's not convenient at night because it doesn't have a light when you select the age group. It's a waste

In the first few days, it worked perfectly, always providing accurate measurements. After 7 months, it started showing only 36.2 to 36.8. My child had a fever of 38.7 and it showed 36.7.
