The device is not as accurate as a 16 lead EKG at my cardiologist's office, where I had two tests in two weeks.
I have found that the Qardio Arm gives very inaccurate readings.
63% highlighted the accuracy, yet 37% found it inconsistent
As a physician, I feel confident in the accuracy of the device and trust it with my wife and 5 children.
I am uncertain about the accuracy of the blood pressure monitor. The only readings I can get are by holding the unit down on my arm as its filling. How accurate can that be?
65% appreciated the long battery life, but 35% experienced frequent drain
The battery life is quite short.
I have complained that the new batteries of this blood-pressure-monitor did not last for more than two weeks.
I received a notification that the batteries needed to be replaced less than a month after owning it.
I switched to rechargeable batteries because the original ones were getting too expensive and I was concerned about waste. I bought Enelop rechargeable batteries which are longer lasting but even those don't last more than two days.
Even after replacing the batteries recently, my device's battery is dead despite rarely using it.
62% liked the comfortable cuff design, but 38% found it too tight
This blood pressure monitor has helped me be more efficient and pain-free while taking multiple BP readings back to back.
The cuff is difficult to open and activate the unit.
The cuff is too short and the Velcro area is too small, causing it to pop off my arm while filling with air.
62% liked the compatibility with multiple devices, but 38% experienced connectivity issues
I recommend the device, but be careful with the battery cap and wrap the cuff tightly around the device when not in use so that the magnet is sitting flat on the top of the device.
I loved the product for its ease of use and convenience of connecting to my phone, as long as it lasted.
I love the feature of being able to control the blood pressure monitor from my phone.
The blood pressure monitor doesn't always connect to my phone.
64% liked the cuff size and fit, although 36% found it uncomfortable
The cuff pumps up to about 80mmHg, then releases.
The cuff is too short and the Velcro area is too small, making it difficult to take accurate readings and causing the unit to pop off while filling with air.
The cuff size is one-size-fits-all, which may not be suitable for older individuals or females. Therefore, I do not recommend purchasing this product.
The cuff size was not suitable for my arm, resulting in incorrect readings. The product description did not mention the cuff size.
63% found the data tracking feature helpful, but 37% had trouble syncing with their device
I find it difficult to track my blood pressure accurately with the QardioArm consistently producing low readings and irregular pulse errors.
After struggling to get the device to turn on automatically on unfurling the cuff, I noticed that the BP readings were now running 20 points higher compared to other cuffs.
My Qardio stopped sharing data with the Health app on my iPhone.
63% appreciated its durability, but 37% experienced premature wear
I have gone through three sets of batteries in less than four months, indicating that the product is not durable.
The battery lid breaks easily, indicating poor durability of the product.
I have had to change batteries already and the second set is starting to sound weak.
I had to purchase a cheaper Meraw wrist unit because the current product was not durable and did not work well. It has helped me get in tune with the other physical signs of high blood pressure.
66% found it easy to operate, while 34% struggled with the instructions
The display is clear, the app is solid and it does everything I want it to do with reliable results.
I loved the product for its ease of use and convenience of connecting to my phone. However, it no longer works.
Sometimes, I need my phone to connect it.
The device is not easy to use consistently as it lacks an on and off button. Additionally, I am unsure about how to recharge it.
The device burns through batteries and has a poorly designed cap for the tripleA power cells. The clasp that holds the cap closed snapped off, making it very flimsy. I have to use rubber bands to keep the retainer cap closed and tight enough to run testing.
62% appreciated the additional features, although 38% found them unnecessary
I rely on the blood pressure monitor's readings as it is very close to the one used at the doctor's office.
There is a second, larger hook grab patch farther down, but it seems suitable only for small arms or kids.
I faced issues with the device turning on automatically and the BP readings were running 20 points higher compared to other cuffs.
63% appreciated the memory, however 37% were disappointed
I am excited about the wireless aspect and the ability to collect and track data on my phone.
After two years of struggling to get it to turn on automatically on unfurling the cuff, my BP readings were running 20 points higher compared to other cuffs.
After replacing the batteries, the device stopped working after two days.
68% liked its compact size, but 32% wished it was more durable
I love the compact portability of the monitor.
Sometimes, I have trouble connecting the device to my phone (iPhone 12). I need to take off the battery door and put it back on to get it to connect.
67% appreciated the power source, although 33% found it less reliable
I noticed that the app shows that the batteries are empty, but they keep working, although a bit slower pumping air.
The app shows the batteries are empty, but they keep working, albeit slower pumping air.
I would prefer a power adapter instead of relying on triple A batteries.
I bought rechargeable batteries and a lightning fast charger off of Amazon to solve the problem of poor battery life.
The battery cap has a small flaw where the tiny clips holding the battery break.
I have used Omron devices before and they are very good. I searched through two websites of organizations that test blood pressure monitors for accuracy and found that this particular device was very accurate.
The blood pressure monitor is easy to use for measurements, pairing with both Android and iPhone, and setting up 2 different profiles.
