It is both convenient and easy to use. Indeed, it is the first non-contact medical thermometer.

With Thermofocus there is no need to place the thermometer in any part of your or your babys body.

Summary: Easy to use ...very good to have when you have small children!
Comment: We purchased this thermometer when both of our children were sick and could not get a consistent reading with our ear thermometer. I am so glad we purchased it. We chose the "free" shipping option and it took 2 weeks to get here, our kids were well by the time it came, but still glad we purchased it. Everything is great...well worth the money for the piece of mind you get knowing their correct temperature. Only thing I would have changed is getting it shipped quicker.

Summary: JUST GET IT!!!
Comment: This thing works great. This little device does such a wonderful job and so easy to use and it has so many uses other than just taking your child's temperature. You'll find yourself taking the temperature of everything. STOP READING THESE REVIEWS AN BUY TWO OF THESE!!!! One for you and one for your best friend. They will thank you every time they see you.

Summary: Excellent non-contact thermometer
Comment: This product arrives in packaging with a manual and an instructional CD-ROM. I would advise the company to forget the expense of the CD-ROM and just stick with the manual. A simple flash video on their website could illustrate use of the device.
Essentially one takes temperature by holding down a button and bringing the thermometer towards the surface to read. When the two projected red dots converge, the button is released and an infrared reading is obtained and stored in memory as well.
The converged dot ends up being only about 1.5 cm in diameter at the correct reading distance - under an inch and it is not hard to find an area to read. The correct reading distance is about 2 inches away.
The manual recommends the central forehead, but I have gotten temperatures matching true core temp a little better by measuring a little to the side in the temporal area, possibly due to better temporal artery perfusion.
Note that alternate reading sites are recommended for those with heavy sweat on the forehead or makeup. Also, immediately after heavy physical activity, readings may be less reliable.
The genius of a noncontact thermometer is that there is no part that contacts a sick child or patient, and thus reduced risk of spread via the thermometer. Also, there are no little plastic covers to have to re-buy (and hope that they still make them), unlike the ear thermometers and many of the digital oral thermometers. Finally, no contact means that it can be performed on sleeping children and the degree of cooperation necessary is less.
A great product for cold and flu season. It replaces an ear thermometer for us that was not always fun to use in fussy children and we always regretted waking them at night to use the ear thermometer. Moderately expensive, but as a home-use consumer (and as a physician) I recommend this.

Summary: GREAT PRODUCT
Comment: We really like our Thermofocus. It is great to take temps of our kids when they are sleeping and not wake them when they are sick. Very accurate and easy to use. We also use it to check temps of bottles and bath.

Summary: Great Product , own 2
Comment: We have 2 of these thermometers because they can be used for things other then taking a persons temp. It is great for taking our 1 year old's temp, and I also use one for taking temps of food and of the house. You can just point it at an air duct in the house and see what temp your room is. These are amazing and everyone with a rowdy young one at home should own at least one.
