Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - accurate, not too hard to use
It's a bit fussy about the position of your arm, but it works quite well. I took it with me to my doctor's office this morning to compare readings, and his BP cuff and this were in good-enough agreement for me to trust.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - I Like It, But The Diastolic Is Always Low
I bought this because of the reviews, but discovered something that I haven't seen in any of them. Shortly after I got it, I took it to by Dr's office to compare it. I had suspected that the diastolic was running low as I always got between 52 and 58. In the Dr's office, my diastolic was 70.

They checked how I was taking my BP and said I was doing it right. ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't recommend this BP monitor even though Consumr Rpt says it's top rated!
Consumer's Reports just rated this a top buy (ranked #4) in automatic BP sensors. I was excited. Came quickly via Amazon, but the readings seemed quite high, over and over.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great product
This was exactly what we were looking for. It's a great product and the shipment was flawless. Thank you!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Almost excellent
The HEM-711AC is accurate as confirmed against doctor's measurements, it has memory enough to retain a good history and can be powered by battery &/or A/C. However, the time & date function fails if the batteries are not installed and working.

The "fuzzy logic" thing that helps the machine know how to pressure up and depressure accurately and consistently is a great addition to BP measuring. I was never very trusting of measurement taken by a series of different professionals who were ... Read More
