I'm so excited! I received my second voxbox from Influenster. This time it was the Braun ThermoScan 5 Ear thermometer. I was very eager to try it because I also have the Braun Forehead thermometer and I absolutely love it!
I was not disappointed with this one either. It was very easy to use, so simple and accurate. I compared it with the forehead thermometer to see if there were any variations in the results that I got but they both read pretty much the same temperature.
I have two young boys, one who is in school and always bringing a bug home to share with his baby brother. Just the other day he was not feeling well and I noticed his skin felt hot so I got this thermometer out right away and took his temperature and sure enough he had a fever. It gave me a read within seconds which is so much better than the traditional methods of temperature taking. My oldest son never liked having a thermometer stuck under his arm for five minutes waiting not so patiently I might add, for the beep.
I also really like that the tip is designed with pre-warmed tip technology which helps minimize the cooling effect of the tip inside the ear canal. Having something cold stuck in your ear would not be comfortable especially for an infant so I really appreciate that aspect of the product.
Thankfully I haven't had to use it on my youngest son, although I did try it out just to see how it worked. The only thing that I could complain about is that it is a bit frustrating and time consuming to carefully place the tip in the ear when you have a squirmy baby who keeps trying to turn his head to see what your trying to do to him. It is also a bit pricey for the product itself and to have to buy replacement tip covers. Other than that, I really like the thermometer because it gives you quick and accurate results that you can depend on.
If you are interested in this product it is available on Amazon or drugstore.com for about $42-$45. It's definitely not the cheapest of thermometers but if your looking for a superior product that is going to give you fast and accurate results every time then I would highly recommend you try the Braun ThermoScan 5 Ear thermometer. I really don't think you will be disappointed.
Note: I received this product free from +Influenster for testing purposes.
