Get it! It’s worth the extra few $ for the peace of mind. It is accurate and consistent!
I have bought 15 different thermometers maybe more and not one of them have been consistent or accurate. I always get a different reading to the point it was clearly not accurate! My son has had a febrile seizure so I do not play when it comes to fevers! He was running a temp yesterday my current 3 had all read completely different numbers so I ordered this one and it was only hours after ordering (Thank goodness) but this thing is worth the extra money for the peace of mind! It is great, bonus part is it comes with guards for each use to keep it clean. It also has a case to store it in. I regret not getting this sooner but very grateful that we have it now. If you’re looking for a new one I highly recommend getting this one do not even waste your time on the others over a few dollars because you’ll be back to order this one.

Best I’ve tried so far!
My toddler is getting close to the age of 3 and it’s time to phase out taking rectal temps. I tried a few other thermometers that consistently gave inaccurate results. The Braun ThermoScan 5 is easy to use, results are fast, and it is very accurate! I feel confident using this and trust the results. There’s nothing worse than thinking your kid has a fever and getting a “normal” temp when they’re obviously warm. This has eliminated so much stress around fevers. This model (version 5) was on a great sale when I got it, I had been going back and forth between this one and the latest version and the price on this sold me! I also realized I probably didn’t haaaaave to have the one that connected to my phone if it was gonna save me 50% of the money lol

Quick and Easy to Use Thermometer
Easy to use and reliable thermometer. Purchased this to replace the old forehead scanner and was really impressed with how quickly it reads the temperature and appreciate how long it displays the temperature. Works wonderful for the whole family.

Overall good.
Overall been good so far for our family. The biggest disappointment was that you NEED to a cover for the thermometer to work.

Pediatrician Approved Thermometer
this thermometer is the best one i have tried , it is the same one they use at my child’s pediatrician office so i know it can be trusted ! my 3 year old will not let me take an oral temp on her but she doesn’t mind this at all, it’s comfortable , gives super super fast readings & has covers that you change after using to keep it clean & sanitary! you do HAVE to use the covers or it won’t work, but that’s okay i mean who wants to stick a thermometer in someone’s dirty ear & then in in their own ear lol! it comes with a pack of covers and they are not expensive to buy when you run out of what it came with !

it's easy to make a mental correction
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.
