Do not get this. Very very inaccurate Temperature reading. It was off my 3 degrees. Was showing 105 on my wife. Took her to the ER nearby, her temp was 99.8. Took the thermometer with me to the ER, measured after the doc took the temperature, still showing 103.5.

i thought i was the only one dissatisfied with this thermometer wanna-be until i read the other reviews. such a waste of money. generally i buy 2 of each health item to keep one upstairs and one downstairs: very happy i restrained myself this time. i am mad that i even bought one.
