Summary: Love it
Comment: I had been searching for a good basal thermometer and the ones purchased at CVS or Wal-Mart were lacking some important features. The thing I love about this thermometer is that it has a continual beep feature (which I admit is a bit annoying so early in the morning) but hearing the beep insures me that it's working properly. My temp is taken in about a minute which beats most competitors and it has a back light so I can see my temp before I shut the device off (it rounds the temp to 1/10th of a degree). For those of you ladies out there who are trying to conceive, you'll appreciate the fact that you can see your temp without having to turn the bedroom light on. It also helped me know if I was or was not still fertile. I highly recommend this thermometer. The only criticism I have is that I wish the beeping had a volume control so I could turn it down!

Summary: Finally!
Comment: After trying numerous digital thermometers, some flex tips, some 8 second reads, all of which were wildly inaccurate, I read the Amazon reviews and bought the BD.
It has no flex tip and takes longer to give a reading. But the reading is accurate! It's the same as my mercury antique, which I'm carefully saving as the gold standard by which to measure the accuracy of digital models. I bought one BD to try it out and will now buy a pack of three to give them to members of my family. A great product!

Summary: Inaccurate thermometer
Comment: This thermometer is inconsistent and recently read 97.2 degrees when I felt hot to the touch. I miss my old mercury thermometer.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Accurate, well constructed
Comment: Strong reviews from Amazon and Consumer Reports convinced me to buy the BD Digital Thermometer - after being disappointed by several other types over the years.
The pluses:
- The construction is solid and the fit and finish are excellent.
- Accuracy and consistency are very good. Our three BD units usually read within 0.1 degree of one another, but every once in a while a unit will give an initial reading that is a degree or so low.
- The memory feature is handy. The thermometer upon startup displays the last temperature.
- Battery replacement is easy.
Minor issue:
If you immediately take your temperature again, the unit will display a temperature higher by 0.4 degree or so. This and other digital thermometers are most accurate on the first reading. Digital thermometers have to compensate for the loss of heat from the housing. If there is retained heat from an immediately prior use, the unit will read a bit higher on the second (and third) use. So, rely on the first reading.
Notes:
- This unit takes about a minute to display your temperature. However, test reports show that units that display a result more rapidly are less accurate.
- Hold this and any thermometer in place under the tongue without shifting. The tip should be fairly deep into the back of the mouth for the most accurate reading.
- Body temperature can vary 1 to 2 degrees through the day. Temperature is usually lowest in the early morning and peaks in late afternoon. Don't worry about there variances.
Bottom line: A good unit that is well constructed and accurate.
