Re: Can anyone recommend a blood pressure monitor please?

[Guest guest]

Hi :

I feel that Omron make the best BP monitors. I have 3 monitors and Omron takes

the best readings and it's superior to the other two. I looked at Amazon.com uk

and this is the one I like, read the reviews and see if this is something you

would like.

....and don't forget, if you order it through the link on the main page of this

forum, 5% of your purchase price will be sent to the TPA !!! YAY !

Hi

It is better to buy one that is recommended by the BPA. They even sell them direct -

There are so many on the market and some are so inaccurate they end up worthless!!

I would get one which has a cuff, not the ones that are like a wristwatch.Lilian

So I wondered if anyone recommend here a blood pressure monitor please?

well.

If you live in the UK, you could buy the BP Monitor sold by

Lloyds Pharmacies. These are cuff monitors and excellent. This is what I have.

They cost about £10.

Thank you for your replies everyone. x

I like the look of the fancy ones that you can upload the results to your PC but

I don't really *need* that. Good old pen & paper will do!

I had a look on Lloyds Pharmacy Sheila, and they had this basic Omron one for

£14.99:

-monitor-13610

The reviews on Amazon look good & it is validated by the BPA. I have a Lloyds

just down the road so I will see if they have one instore.

I bought the Omron M2 basic blood pressure monitor and its great!

I paid £14.99 at Lloyds Pharmacy, but just noticed that ASDA have the same one

for £10 which is a real bargain!

Too late for me but just thought I would share that incase anyone else was

thinking of buying one!
