Braun ThermoScan Ear Thermometer with ExacTemp Technology

As an RN, I recommend this thermometer to everyone! It’s easy to use, doesn’t hurt or upset children, and the most accurate brand that I’ve used.

Gave wildly inaccurate temperature readings. Got back to back readings of 97.4 and 99.9 in the same ear. Compared with an old school thermometer that I know is accurate (but takes 5 mins to get a reading) and this ear thermometer was off every time.

Even though the customer service staff assisted me in refunding my order and reordering a new product for me, I would still want to bring to Target's attention regarding my recent unsatisfactory purchase. I believe it is related to Target's commitment to cleanliness and also is relevant to the Coronavirus situation. During this Coronavirus situation, I can't possibly understand how the inspection team could deliver a used and stained thermometer to a customer when she purchased a new product. It looks very disturbing with all the stains supposedly from the ear canal.....I hope somehow the inspection team could be more stringent. If I did not call to report this issue and instead returned the product to the store, would it then be delivered to other customers??? I am deeply concerned and disturbed by this. I feel even more raged when Target sent an email about its actions in response to the Coronavirus situation. However, the service I received just now did not reflect that commitment. I do hope you take this message seriously to improve the quality of the inspection teams consistently across all locations. Thank you! (The one-star review reflects my disappointment toward the inspection team. I still don't know how the product functions until I receive it.)

I never purchase one because it was too pricey. I always used the under arm thermometer for my kids because it was affordable. But it was difficult and I can never get an accurate reading. I finally purchased this ear thermometer when my daughter was sick and I am happy I did. I should've done it long time ago. It is easy and convenient to use. The only down part is that I will always have to buy the air filter protectors. Overall, good purchased for anyone. It is a must!!!

This is so quick for those kids that won’t sit still long!

Much preferred over the forehead one we were using! This one is easy to use and reliable. It’s the same one that our pediatrician uses.

It’s the only one that has worked for me.

Good thermometer but I am not sure it is always super accurate. Really easy and quick to use with child but if need to be sure about temp, would use oral or rectal to confirm.
