I ordered this for nursing class and I was a little skeptical at first but when I recieved the package I was very pleased. I have used it and it is great so far. I received the package right on time...not a day late. SO, I would recommend this product.
Excellent BP Cuff for Nursing Students! September 26, 2009

I bought this cuff from a local medical uniform supply store so that I could practice taking blood pressure. I'm a new nursing student, and being on a budget, I was pretty limited in what I could purchase. But the ancient cuffs that the school allowed us to check out had seen better days: the release valves were tough to open reulting in some patient discomfort!
This cuff is quite nice for the price: If the dial is ever off more than three mm/Hg (which is easy to discern via the small box at the "6 o'clock" position), Prestige will reclaibrate it for you (just keep your receipt). The bladder releases very easily and quietly, which is great to help reduce extraneous noise while listening through a stehoscope. The cuff also has a sewn-in name tag and labels for where to line up the artery on the left and right arms, and a size guide.
One caveat: the Velcro portion of the straps is EXTREMELY grippy. Now, this is normally a good thing since it ensures a secure fit around a patient's arm. But with all the pulling to undo it, I was concerned that the seams would rip. I got a small bottle of Locktite glue, and placed a small bit of adhesive under the Velcro flaps along the seams to further anchor it to the cuff. It feels much more secure now!
Being a male, I wasn't too impressed with some of the other styles of BP cuffs available at the store(I'm not really a Betty Boop or hot pink kind of guy!). But the royal blue color I bought is really nice looking; a very deep hue. And it doesn't look like every other black BP cuff around school. The included matching case also has a side pouch where I keep my warranty info and receipt handy.
When all is said and done, this is a great low-cost BP cuff for students that allows for ample practice of vital sign skills on your own time. It was worth the money to avoid using a junky loaner!
Exactly as promised September 22, 2009

This is a basic aneroid sphygmomanometer that we'll use in the office until it breaks, like all the others before it. It seems to be good quality so far and the price is nice.
