OMRON EVOLV All-in-One, Wireless, Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor - Black

Works great. Good to use it and syncs seamlessly with the Connect app. Very helpful to show the doctor. The product looks beautifully designed as well. Also, not fidgetty like their wrist based one I had previously.

Only had this a few days but what a difference. I was given a blood pressure monitor home with me last time I went for yearly MOT. That’s what I call it. Bloods and BP etc. I already had a wrist cuff monitor and it works fine. I was told they were no good. I took the one I was given home (which is also available on Amazon Sure sign) I don’t know if these machines are ever calibrated or if they need it but this thing was squeezing my arm until it hurt and left red lines. I’m older now and of course skin is a lot thinner and not as firm as it used to be. Anyway I made it less tight but it just put more air in it was quite painful. I was told to do this twice in the morning and twice at night and register the lowest readings of the 2. The readings ended up all over the place and far too high. It was probably due to the thought of going through the pain each time. I bought this Omron and it’s wonderful. It’s so easy to use and fitting it is a breeze. No pain. Press the button and it gently blows up and gives a reading the cuff is very comfortable and easy to use. I love it and much prefer it. I stopped using the Surgery one on Friday. But continued with the Omron to see if there was any difference. Most readings are normal and under 140/70. Tried the rubbish wrist cuff as well and it’s almost in sync with the Omron. Maybe a difference of 1-2 points. The Suresign can be out by 10. If you’re going to buy one I would suggest the Omron for accuracy…easy fitting…and comfort. When you’re done it has it’s own little storage case to keep it tidied away until next time you need it.

This BP monitor is easy enough to use and has a great app for recording and exporting the data. Ideal for sending to my Dr. It fit nicely too, I’m 6’1” and 20 stone with 16” arms and it went on with no trouble at all, and my primary school aged kids also had a go with it and it fit them too. The batteries are a little awkward to get in due to their location. but they last for ages so it’s no hassle to spend an extra minute getting to them once every six months or so.

Nice piece of tech! Compared to my previous M7 Intelli IT monitor this machine is considerably smaller, lighter and not so cumbersome to use (a must if you need to carry this around with you on a daily basis!) I checked the accuracy of the readings using the M7 on the other arm and the readings were almost identical (+/- 1 point) so I assume the Evolv is no less accurate. What I like most is no air tube or positioning of the sensor on the cuff, just place it your arm and press start, it couldn't be easier. Superficial I know but it also looks smart with it's much simplified screen information. The Omron app is also a bonus for storing your results and tracking trends etc. Originally I was a bit put-off by the purchase price but now I've seen it and used it I think it was well worth it...... excellent purchase.

Went for this because it says its clinically validated for accuracy and its meant to be free from user error (unlike other more conventional types that rely on fitting it properly it uses deep learning algorithms, so regardless of how you fit it it should give an accurate reading.) Also no tubes and very light is a bonus. Its pretty expensive compared to classic clinically validated types and I do wonder if I should have just learned to use one properly to ensure accurate readings rather than be passive and lazy and expect the machine to do everything!! Especially since I suspect the durability of the classic monitor types is likely better. Its always hard to evaluate build quality but it has a 2 year guarantee which is unfortunately as good as it gets these days (and the same length as the other types Omron make). Easy to use, you literally hit one button to take a measurement and one to transfer data. Its easy to read, but I can't see why you should be limited to 1 user profile - seems a simple feature to add and a pretty disappointing omission. NB: once you sync your device it might not actually transfer the data (depending on your mobile phone) so you have to go into the devices section of the app and choose 'data transfer method 2' instead. That should be clear in the instructions rather than me having to troubleshoot it.

I have used Omron blood pressure monitors for years, they are very reliable and very good. My previous one I have had over 10 years still good at times goes a little faulty . So I decided to get a new machine. This one appealed to me as it as no tube from the monitor that attaches to the arm wrap. Its electronic and connects to your phone with an app. When I first opened the bag it comes in. Initially I thought something was missing, I thought the monitor was missing. This machine does not need a monitor.The reading are on the screen which is on the wrap on your arm. Readings go to your smart phone and there you see the visual readout. This machine only does readings for one person. It works on 2 AAA battery's. I find it very comfortable and easy to use. The readings from your app can be emailed on the excel to your healthcare provider or printed out With this monitor it also comes with 6 months free of premium and after that if you want its £8 a month. The app records your BP on a graph chart. The app is so informative and lots of articles to read. Glad I got this monitor.
