I am a fan of the rear thermometer (apparently not allowed to use any other words for this part of the body because of censors!!!) because it is most accurate - I am a medical professional and a mother. Ear thermometers are innacurate up to as much as 2 degrees which can be extremely dangerous. When I purchased this thermometer I compared it to rear and ear temperatures in both of my children and it has been within half a degree of rear temperature every time. I threw away the "convenient" ear thermometer immediately. The only con is that the screen does not light up and it beeps while taking temperature, so not as convenient for sleeping child as I thought- but still more convenient than the other options. It takes less than 30 seconds- truly amazing! VS Most Liked Negative Review DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY I purchased this product after seeing one used at my local hospital.

The one sold here gives a different reading everytime you use it. I couldn't wait for it to arrive, when it did I wanted to send it right back. It's a toy and should not be purchased if you're looking for the most reliable temperature reading. Reviewed by 25 customers Sort by Displaying reviews 11-20  Pros

Comments about Exergen Temporal Artery Thermometer, 1 ea: First need we had was of course a nightmare experience. With a tool such as this it needs to be easy to use out of the box. With LOTS of training and practice it MIGHT be a great item to have, but when your kid wakes up on fire with fever you don't have time to train or hope you are doing it correctly. We never did feel like (after 3 days of using it in duality with the braun ear thermo) we had a good "feel" for how to use it. We are sticking with the Braun ear for the kids. Also, when the kids are sticky with sweat from a fever it is hard to use. Pros

Comments about Exergen Temporal Artery Thermometer, 1 ea: Arrived the day my toddler bacame ill. Looks exactly like the one used at Childrens Hospital. Was very pleased with temperature reading compared to our other themometer which allows 3 different ways to take temp. Checked my own the day I went to see my PCP and it was the same temp. I would recommend especially for infants and chidren. Pros

Comments about Exergen Temporal Artery Thermometer, 1 ea: This thermometer is amazing! Very easy to use. I haven't had any problems with getting an accurate reading. I have two young children, so this gets a lot of use. Since it's non invasive and only takes a second, they don't mind it, and I've even used it on them while they were sleeping. Comments about Exergen Temporal Artery Thermometer, 1 ea: This thermometer is a lifesaver! My 18 month old son scared us with a febrile seizure in the middle of the night, and I purchased this thermometer right after. Now, when he goes to sleep with a fever, I can check his temperature several times without disturbing him. This gives me piece of mind. I did have some temperature discrepancies when I was first getting the hang of it, but now I have no problems with it. A true must have for parents of toddlers!
