I’ve used other digital thermometers in the past, and I could never fully trust the readings—sometimes they would fluctuate wildly, or the temperature would just seem off. But with the Braun ThermoScan 5, the readings are fast, reliable, and consistent every time. No more second-guessing if the temperature is right!The ear thermometer design is perfect for taking quick measurements, especially when my kids aren’t feeling well and don’t want to sit still for too long.

Only had it a couple of days but it's been working for me. I have bought 50 thermometers and none of them but this one has been accurate and worked so thank you.

OUCH!!! Who still wants the old thermometers when you can use this one! So neat and clean no mess or washing.Ear thermometers, or tympanic thermometers, are generally considered quick and easy to use, with many models offering accurate temperature readings within seconds. However, accuracy can be affected by factors like earwax buildup and proper placement, and some models may not be as accurate as contact thermometers.

Super easy to use on my kids! Highly recommended!

There are three metrics for a body thermometer: accuracy, consistency and safety. The gold standard for the first two properties was the old mercury thermometer, which relied on the simplest of physical principles. Sadly, it failed on the last count. Individuals were rarely injured, but the overall environmental effect wasn't acceptable. So the gold standard is gone.Digital thermometers exist in several forms. They're generally safe (as long as disposed of properly), so the remaining metrics are accuracy and consistency. Of those, consistency may be the more important. If a thermometer is a consistent half-degree off, it's easy to make a mental correction. After all, you're more interested in the trend--not necessarily an completely accurate number.I had a little shoot-out between the Braun and a cheap grocery store digital thermometer. At four different periods in the day, I took my temperature several times in rapid succession (My wife wandered into the room at one point when I had one thermometer in my mouth and the other in my ear. I was happy the camera wasn't nearby). The results were quite surprising. The oral thermometer gave me reliable measurements that didn't vary by more than a tenth of a degree over the 5-minute measurement period. The Braun was all over the place, at one point swinging over a 1.2 degree (Fahrenheit) range. The measurement from left to right ear was never the same, but never in a predictable way. At its best, the variance was .3 (three-tenths) of a degree. That's three times worse than the oral thermometer at its worst.I've always liked the tasteful appearance and solid quality of Braun products. But whether it's a product problem or a basic problem with the reliability of the ear measurement, it's hard to recommend it.

Very easy to use and doesn’t have to be placed in your ear all the way to get the temperature reading. Would recommend this to anyone!
