OMRON M3 Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor for Two Users

Pleased that I bought this as my old digital BP gauge had been providing inaccurate readings. That could have led to serious issues later on. The gauge is easy to use and also comes with clear instructions which must be read before use. The functions offered by this gauge are more than adequate in my view & the fact that it came with four new alkaline batteries was a bonus. It's simple to use & reliable. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is concerned about monitoring their BP. This gauge is well worth the price as it's an essential aid to monitoring BP. The only negative is if you have upper arms which are more than 11" (or 28cm) wide the cuff band may be too tight when it inflates with air to measure your BP. In that case, it would be best to choose the next model up in range which has a larger fit for wider upper arms and also offers more functions.

Good value for money, measures just right and very consistent, comfortable and easy to use, easy to ready wnd barely any noise

Now of an age where I need to take more interest in my BP (!) I thought I'd invest in this when it was a lightning deal. I have to say, I'm so pleased with it that I'd have happily paid the normal price. The instructions are clear & easy to follow and within a few minutes of opening the box, I'd taken my first reading.All I needed to do was insert the included Duracell batteries (thanks, Omron for not supplying iffy generic batteries!); set the date and time; attach the air tube to the machine; wrap the cuff around my arm & press 'Start.' The reading is large and easy to read and there are clear warning lights/symbols if any of your measurements are outside the norm. The big plus of this machine is that the cuff accommodates a huge range of arm sizes. My arms are big & with many machines I'd have to buy a separate, extra-large cuff - but this would fit pretty well any arm, I imagine. I don't understand people's comments about the difficulty in attaching the cuff correctly. There is a warning light/cut out feature that prevents a reading if the cuff is attached too loosely - this is apparently because if it's too loose it can give a false reading. But it isn't a case, as one reviewer suggests, of having to position the cuff 'just so.' I've tried being fairly slapdash with it - & as long as the cuff is actually closed & tight enough, I got a reading every time. (And 'tight enough' doesn't mean circulation-stopping - I found quite a range of tightness to be accepted by the machine.) Depending on the battery performance, I may order the mains adaptor from Omron. This looks strong and sturdy and looks like it's built to last. Highly recommend!

Great BP monitor, easy to use and I found the cuff very comfortable. I have slightly larger arms so it is great to have a cuff that is sized for both smaller and larger arms rather than having to buy an extra cuff. I found it reassuring to have the OK light on the machine that tells you if you have wrapped it to the right tightness as well. And will give you an error if it's too loose...too many machines will just give you a reading anyway even though it's bound to be inaccurate. For me, monitoring at home unsupervised, this made things a bit more foolproof! It also tells you if you moved too much during the reading. The only issue I had with this machine is that I cannot take readings from my left arm - it gives me an error. I previously ordered the M6 Omron machine and sent it back because of the same issue. When I got this one (M3) it did the exact same thing which then led me to think that the machine wasn't the problem...it must be something about my arm and the way it takes the measurement (I've had more than one phlebotomist tell me I have weird, deep veins lol!!). As soon as I swapped to the right arm it worked completely normally time after time giving consistent readings. So I always take the reading from the right arm now which my GP says is fine. Overall very happy with it.

I purchased the “Omron Healthcare M3 Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor” because I had high blood pressure due to another medical issue, the hospital advised me to either purchase a monitor or visit the nurse at my local GP surgery a couple of times a week which I didn’t fancy doing. This monitor is brilliant and so simple to use, there is a switch that allows you to record the pressure of 2 people if required. The upper arm cuff slides on simply and if incorrectly positioned the unit will advise you, the cuff also allows use on small to large arms, I have used this on my 10 year old son and my 43 year old arm and even on mine there is a lot of space for larger arms. The monitor will alert you if your blood pressure is outside the normal range, until I had these problems I had no idea what the normal range is. The monitor takes 4 AA batteries which are included, it also has a port to allow connection of a 6V DC adapter but you will have to purchase this separately. This product has saved me so much time and the boredom of being sat in the GP surgery waiting for my blood pressure to be tested so it is the best £35 I have spent in a long time.

A requirement for a blood pressure monitor was needed for my dad, and the only brand I could think of was Omron. There was no option of choosing any other manufacturer. Omron are the leaders in this industry, and all medical facilities use this brand. The M3 intelli sense model was the best priced version when compared to the other offerings. It features an easy to use fascia with just one button. It takes 4 AA sized batteries and an input for a plug in adaptor, however the adaptor would need to be purchased separately if you require this option. It is easy to use and even has an indication to tell the user whether the arm band is tight enough around the arm. The device has memory for 2 users with a simple slide button to switch between the users. The blood pressure indicator is clear and precise on screen. The kit is extremely well built, and the quality shows. If looked after, it will last for years. Great bit of kit, forget the other fancy ones which have Bluetooth or phone app capability. This is all you need for an easy to use, no hassle blood pressure monitor device. Buy it.

I've used a few different blood pressure monitors over the years. This one is the easiest to use. It tells you if the cuff is not placed correctly. It also tells you if you moved too much. It tells you if your pulse is irregular and lights up to warn you if your blood pressure is too high. (different lights for systolic and diastolic). Omron is one of the brands trusted by health care professionals, so I feel happy that I can trust it to be accurate. This model can record the blood pressures of two different people at the flick of a switch and also has a guest setting for a 3rd person. The cuff is amply big enough for larger people. Other models I have had in the past I had to buy a separate cuff because the one supplied was too small, and only catered for small to medium build people. Very pleased with this blood pressure monitor. I bought this some time ago now but it still works perfectly. I use it twice per day at the moment and the batteries always last really well.

So good and accurate

Accurate and easy to use.

Funciona al mil

Bought some years ago to follow my blood pressure. Simple to use and accurate, it has given no trouble in years of use.

The product is exactly as expected. Seems to be quite accurate and having the possibility to use either batteries or cable is a big plus. Good value for money

L’ho dovuto acquistare per motivi di salute in quanto soffro di ipertensione e non lo sapevo. Il prodotto è facilissimo da usare, applicato il bracciale al braccio come mostrato nel relativo manuale che viene fornito in dotazione, basta premere un pulsante e attendere qualche secondo per visualizzare i dati relativi sul display dello stesso. Attraverso dei semplici led che si accendono per avvisare se la pressione è alta e facile capire se ci sia qualche anomalia, se si sta poco bene. Inoltre sul display LCD viene anche indicato se il battito del cuore è irregolare, un altro ottimo motivo per capire se ci siano anomalie, se si sta poco bene. Sapevo che OMRON è ottimo marchio e nell’acquistare lo stesso ero sicuro di non sbagliare ed infatti così è stato. Il prodotto misura la pressione in modo molto preciso. In dotazione viene fornito con le batterie, manuale d’uso e pratica custodia in stoffa dove riporlo dopo l’uso. Lo stesso permette di memorizzare diverse misurazioni per due utenti contemporaneamente. Sinceramente quando si tratta di salute consiglio di affidarsi a marchi conosciti e non cinesate varie che lasciano molti dubbi. Per me il dubbio è una brutta bestia! Non deve esistere. Io ne consiglio l’acquisto. Poi fate voi, la cifra da spendere non è molto alta ma siamo sicuri che porteremo a casa un buon prodotto che può aiutarci a stare meglio, a tenere sotto controllo il nostro stato di salute.
