This thermometer is SUPER slow. I had it all ready on travel and needed to check my 6 month olds temp rectally. Unfortunately 1 1/2 - 2 minutes later, nothing. I was so frustrated I tried to break it in half! I couldn't so that's a positive point to this thermometer. When I tried this product on myself it did take a long time (2 minutes and that is a generous estimate) and it was 2 degrees low (taken orally). I contacted the company and they found they were having the same problem. Maybe it was a bad batch? I purchased it in May 2009. They refunded my money (thank you), but I was still in the market for a good digital thermometer. I trusted the positive reviews on the BD Thermometer but wasn't happy with the product myself.
If you want fast, accurate and reliable try the Vicks Digital Thermometer Speed Read. I have one and am planning on ordering 2 more!Get more detail about BD Digital Thermometer 1 ea.
