  • Do these need calibrating regularly?

      • +1

        Yeah i have this and it always seems to give very high readings, not sure accuracy is that great. They wouldn't be offering huge discounts like this if it was any good and selling well.

        I know nothing about this product, maybe it's horrendous I have no idea.

        But that guy in the video just seems like a sook. They tried troubleshooting it via email, then referred his case up…..He has no response in 2 weeks so he posts a video and gives up?

        Also I'm no expert but it looks like he's got the cuff covering his elbow joint…shouldn't it be higher up the arm?

      • +1

        Guy got it on the wrong arm, supposed to be left arm.
        Not saying his unit isn't defective but just saying.

        • I reckon it's because he's filming on selfie mode and everything is flipped.

          LED at one point said 'Bp' and it looked flipped.

          Not defending him though.

        I have 3 bpm(withings, omron and sinocare). The Withings one is at least 10 mmHg higher than the other 2. I tried to do the same as in the video(contact the support and did all the asked procedures) and give up as well.

    • +2

      No.
      It keeps giving realistic and consistent results for me. I lost one, and bought another one recently.

      Very difficult to assess accuracy on your own at home even if you wanted to. With any automatic meter. Even two measurements taken one right after another can easily be >10% different.

      This device even offers a 3 measurement average, by taking 3 measurements in short succession.

    • time to get a new job.

  • Thanks OP, this has been on my wish list for a while.

    Sorry guys. Product is rubbish. Inaccurate. Swapped for an Omron BP monitor within a week.

  • +1

    Basically crap! Don't use it especially with your beloved ones because they start to worry with wrong readings.

  • +4

    Buy an Omron

      Omicron*

    • Buy the pfizer

        Don't they come with free BP monitor and defibrillator anyway?

        • +2

          I think the nanobots can be programmed to measure your BP and HR from inside the heart, then transmitted to your phone via 5G

  • +1

    Great , will hopefully get it in time for Christmas lunch with the extended family.

    • oooh do before and afters

  • A shame…the Withings thermometer seemed pretty good. Though I can't confirm it's accuracy.

  • I do not even know how it could be legally allowed to sell such a product. All values are so inaccurate, sometimes 20% higher than the actual values.
    Especially considering that we are talking about a device for healthcare.

    And really, it is not about Omron or a specific brand. Almost every other devise is more accurate.

    • +1

      "Actual values"? How do you determine those?

      Genuinely interested since I've had high blood pressure for ober 20 years and have also studied metrology for a bit and tried to compare my two different automatic monitors with a manual meter at home and find it very difficult.

      I did notice that this meter uses a different measurement technique than other automatic monitors I've used.
      It seems to listen to the heart rate while it's pumping the cuff. Which makes it much faster. Usually the cuff is pumped full and measurement is carried out in the deflation part of the cycle.
      My guess is that this may make it more susceptible to interference from loud noise since its already at work filtering the noise of the pump.

      • +2

        I can tell you, by comparison. When 4 other devices (Braun, Omron) are in a range between 130-138 and 80-86, but this Withings is around 158-168-95-101, something is strange. Repeated all measurements several times, different circumstances to get a more or less compareable result; so we are talking about the rounded average.

        Look at the reviews; Amazon, here. A lot of people are complaining about the accuracy. Probably I am wrong, other users are wrong and the 4 other devices are not good, but when talking about statistics, how likely would this be? ;-)

  • +2

    I don't know about the negative reviews people are commenting but I got this for my grandma last year. It's incredibly easy to use , syncs via Bluetooth with her phone and saves the measurements so you can get a good overall average picture of her bp throughout the month. And it's been really accurate, the battery life is incredible too, I think I've only charged it for her once in 3 or 4 months . Would highly recommend , mainly because there's so annoying cords involved.

  • +1

    These are crap,
    I would recommend a Omron (which are used in some medical clinics as well), the tubed versions are more accurate and don't need re-calibrating often.
    just my 2 cents.
    (source: just my experience, I don't have any medical knowledge)

  • I'm looking for a chest band heart rate monitor.
    Could someone recommend one?

    Thanks.

    • The Polar H10 is a great choice, but I use a Garmin HRM-Pro and honestly love it as well.

      If you're already using any particular brand's ecosystem (Garmin, Wahoo, Polar, etc) it's useful to stick to something in that ecosystem, but otherwise either the H10 or HRM Pro are very good straps.

      • Thanks. Can it store data, or it needs to be connected to something else (via Bluetooth) all the time?
        I have a Mi band, would that be usable with such chest band?

        • I can't vouch for the Polar but at least my HRM-Pro stores data locally until it can sync with your phone then matches everything up.

          As far as I'm aware, there's no way to use an external HR strap with a Mi Band. I used to have one a while back, but I've got a Garmin watch now that can connect to the HRM-Pro directly.

  • I have this and not a great experience for non tech savvy people.

  • can this one continuously monitor BP over 24 hours?

    • +1

      No, you have to manually initiate it

  • It's just a piece of junk

    • +1

      hand to find mercury nowadays, I remember my mum used to take BP on me with those mercury boxes!

  • I bought one of these and when my doctor compared it to his machine it was around 14-22 higher and would make you panic a bit. Then when I took it back to JB HiFi he said it’s hit and miss with these and the only good product they have is the scales.. I have the Eufy scales so I switched off.
    Not bagging it but if you get a bad one speak up early. Concept is great thou.

    • +1

      I had the opposite experience when my doctor measured me with HIS machine and then manually after I used my Withings and they were all consistent with each other. I love my Withings BP connect and use the triple scan average mode each morning and night to track my BP.

      Even if people say that it is consistently high or low, on average over a long period of time, you will get to know your overall BP average.

      Also, people need to realise that BP measurements in the morning are usually consistently higher and that after a meal, it will be much lower. This is why I do the triple average in the morning (generally higher) and before I go to bed at night. Plus my BP meds at 4pm. :-)

  • I bought this the last time this deal came around and I agree with others saying this thing is a piece of junk.

    Too inaccurate and it simply doesn't feel like it sits around the arm properly even after many months of use.

  • Bloody good deal

    • +1

      I often feel under some pressure when trying to come up with a joke, but then I realise it’s hard to come up with a good one off the cuff

  • This one is rubbish. Hence the discount.

    You should only use an Omron that is made in Japan. It also is best if is a bicep cuff. Both my GP and Cardiologist will only recommend an Omron. They easily sync over Bluetooth into Apple Health or your preferred Health system.

  • +1

    got one today, seems to be working fine.

  • At risk of overcomplicating things, manually learning to take a blood pressure is so much cheaper, and will almost always be more accurate. You can buy a manual sphygmomanometer and cheap as nothing stethoscope, watch a few YouTube videos, and practise on your SO or family. It's a bit fiddly to measure your own BP manually, but it's easily doable.
