Customer Omron Blood Pressure Reviews
Quick, easy, accurate
Two of the previous reviewers noted that their automatic blood pressure monitor didn’t accurately read their blood pressure. I’m wondering if they made the same mistake that I made with my first two readings. My first two readings were 20 points higher than normal!! And then I read the instructions and realized that the air pump had to be on the same side as the palm of your hand. Tried a third time, making sure I had the air pump properly positioned. The next reading was normal. What a relief.
When I was researching which monitor to get, I debated between the Omron HEM-780 and this one. For whatever reason, the HEM-780 sells more on Amazon. The only advantages I could see, however, were that it had a larger cuff, a so-called Comfit cuff, and saves the last 90 readings rather than the last 60. What sold me on this blood pressure unit, however, was a feature that the HEM-780 doesn’t have — an irregular heart beat indicator . Since the 9″-13″ upper arm cuff was fine for me, I bought this unit and it’s perfect for my needs. The Omron technology is otherwise the same for both units and the cuff on this unit is also comfortable so no need for the Comfit cuff. If you need a larger cuff (up to 17″), buy the HEM-780. If not, save the $12, get the same technology with the added bonus of the irregular heart beat indicator.
Does the trick!
I purchased this blood pressure monitor for my elderly mother. I had a few requirements. 1) That it was easy to use, 2) That it was easy to read, because my mother has poor vision, and 3) that it produces good output. This machine does all of the above and comes with a an alternative power source too! We are pleased.
Omron Pressure Monitor
Being a nurse, i’ve used all sorts of makes and models to monitor blood pressure, including the self application type. Most are flawed by poor unstable connectors, tubes too short to reach between patient and device, clumsy to wrap, the air supply knob is either too tight or too loose, or electrical cords too short to be practical, etc. I was hesitant, skeptical and reluctant to pay this much. (I don’t mind so much if it just works!)
Now that the OMRON DLX Automatic Comfort Cuff has been in use for almost a month, it has proven it’s worth!
All the cords/connections are ample and stable. The reading is accurate and easy to obtain, even one-handed. It stays put when placed on the upper arm above the elbow, is comfortable and easy to complete the velcro closure. The memory allows comparison over a significant period of time and is a handy feature.
I haven’t tried to use it on battery power, but it gets my thumbs up!
