First class, demystifying July 25, 2010 Ralph L. Seifer (long beach, california United States) Mine arrived this morning, and it took about five minutes to read the instructions and put the stethoscope and pressure bulb together and take a reading. I had long believed there was some special expertise needed to take BP, but it turns out it couldn't be simpler.
The stethoscope is more than adequately sensitive and the gauge is readily controllable with the airbleed knob. I bought this unit because I had lost faith in an Omron HEM 780 digital monitor that I had for several years but hadn't used until a recent substantial nudge from my cardiologist. As it turns out, the Omron monitor and the new one are both pretty close in their readings, but the aneroid model is easier to use and the cuff is much less difficult to put on without a third hand. Highly recommended. Ralph L. Seifer, Long Beach, California
easy to use, accurate readings July 24, 2010 Professional Software Developer Sure, it would be wonderful to "push a button" and get your heart rate & BP readings... but after researching all of those automatic systems the consistent message was that you end up paying 2-3 times more than this unit, and all too often got questionable readings. It wasn't hard to give up on the concept of those systems and go with an old reliable technology: less expensive, more accurate, almost as easy to use... winner!
Worth the price June 11, 2010 Jeffrey Mott (il) Nice , accurate blood pressure monitor. Learn to use correctly and it will work good for you.
works well April 26, 2010 Jon (TN) For the price it is working very well. Yes the steth is a little hard to hear with, but it works fine. I just needed this to help track the BP's of my mom and husband and felt it was more accurate than a digital one. Good purchase.
LifeSource UA-100 Home Aneroid Blood Pressure Monitor February 14, 2010 Ella McDaniel (Port Townsend, WA United States) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
A manual cuff is the only way to go if you need to monitor your blood pressure. After going through several digital (and expensive) units, we have returned to the manual monitor. The digital ones, while easy with numerous bells and whistles, just simply are not that accurate. And, they cannot be calibrated like the manual ones. This particular one UA-100 is easy to use for one person. And, it has a little screw driver that comes with so you can calibrate it. Very easy. If you don't purchase this one, make sure it has a "D" ring on the cuff to hold it in place and on your arm while you cinch it up. This one does. The quality is very good for the price. We have 3 in our household that have to monitor, so I bought one for each of us. As long as you don't have any severe hearing problems, you will be happy with this one and find the manual monitors much more accurate.
