Rating:  - Points for a quick refund, but that's about it.
I ordered this item to use for FAM charting, since I didn't want to use a digital thermometer that would need a replacement battery (since I figured that would be more expensive in the long run).
However, when the item arrived, it was broken. I know many customers had trouble shaking down the mercury (or, the non-mercury), but the non-mercury in the thermometer I received would not rise. I know this thermometer takes longer for a reading than a digital thermometer, but I had to hold ... Read More
Rating:  - How to shake down the thermometer
Hold the thermometer between the pad of your thumb and side of your index finger about an inch from the metal tip and then loosely wrap your fingers around the glass.

I hope this helps. I also had trouble at first, but the thermometer has turned out to work perfectly.
Rating: - More accurate than digital!
I bought a glass basal thermometer a month ago, and I simply love it! You don't have to worry about batteries, and the thermometer is internally consistent, which never seems to be the case with digital ones.

It comes with a convenient case with magnifying lens, so that you can see the results better. It also retains the results until you're ready to record them, same as digital. ... Read More
Rating: - No Temperature ... ever!
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3GEDMK5PB4RZP The manufacturer says this isn't possible. So I took a video. She wouldn't even look at it. Now you can see that this particular thermometer does not hold a temperature even long enough to read it. The opposite problem of others who were not able to shake it down.
Early-Pregnancy-Tests.com is a good company. They refunded my money and I will continue to purchase other products from them. ... Read More
Rating: - Fragile!
We broke two of these before we gave up and bought a digital one. Because you have to shake it hard to get it ready to use it's very easy to drop it. And you only have to drop it once for it to shatter. The product works like it is supposed to but digital is much less of a hassel.
