Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Decided to replace the trusty Braun thermoscan ear thermometer that we bought back in 2007 when our first child was born. The Thermoscan wasn't broken, just that it feels outdated. This No-Touch thermometer is really well-designed. Simplistic, and intuitive to use. Daughter just came down with a mild cold, and we have been using both the old Thermoscan and this No-Touch thermometer to see if there is any difference in the reading. While this is not a affirmative test for accuracy, both thermometers' readout are within 0.3 F of each other, so we are fairly confident that both of these are good for their function. Using the No-Touch thermometer: While holding the No-Touch thermometer close to forehead (without touching), press the button once to activate. Once the No-Touch thermometer vibrates, the scan is complete. There are similar No-Touch thermometers out there for a bit cheaper, but I enjoy the design of this particular model.
