Alcedo Blood Pressure Monitor for Home Use, Automatic Digital BP Machine with Large Cuff for Upper Arm, LCD Screen, 2x120 Memory, Talking Function

I recently purchased the Alcedo Blood Pressure Monitor for Home Use, and it has truly exceeded my expectations. It’s incredibly simple to set up, the instructions are clear, and the large display makes the readings easy to see for anyone, including older adults. The measurements are quick, consistent, and very accurate. I compared the results with readings taken at my doctor’s office, and they were almost identical. The cuff is comfortable, fits well, and doesn’t feel too tight. I also love that it stores multiple readings, which makes it easy to track my progress and share the information with my healthcare provider.

My cardiologist wants me to monitor my BP at home, because it is always high in the when done in the office. Sometimes I could talk the nurse into waiting 5 minutes, and my BP top number would drop about 30 points during that time. I bought this unit because I wanted a cuff and not the wrist version. The following are my observations: 1) Set up was relatively easy but would have been more complicated if there was to be another user. 2) I like the option of either batteries (which are included) or a USB cord. 3) It is rather particular on how you put on the cuff, so just be sure to have the instruction flap showing on the inside of your arm, or you will get an error message. 4) It is more comfortable than the office cuffs and gives a good squeeze without feeling like you have a tourniquet on. 5) It records your readings, though I keep a separate record on my computer. 5) The display is very readable, which is good if you have poor eyesight like me. 6) It also displays your heart rate (beats per minute), which is important to us heart patients.

This device is so easy to use and the numbers are plenty big enough to see even without my glasses. I compared the blood pressure results from this device to my doctor’s office equipment and it was only +/- 3 points, which I found very comforting. I would highly recommend this product.

The Velcro " Hook must be atleast 5 inches longer.. But over all its a great B.P monitor. Thank you..

Purchased to take blood pressure at home. Reading seems accurate. Easy to use and great instruction included with the package. Would recommend and buy again. Like the 2 person reading and storage of information. Reads outloud as default.

Set up is easy and very easy to use. Voice option is kind of nice.

I purchased in 2019 and it’s still going strong. It just alerted me today for the first time that it needed new batteries when I was about to use it. It’s very handy and easy to use on a daily basis. After resting in a chair for 5 minutes with no talking, I take the reading. It talks you through it and even plays relaxing music while it’s pumping up. The reading is very easy to understand, giving you all the information you need. Great price as well. Highly recommend.

I just purchased this yesterday on a special deal with delivery the same day. I regret the purchase and I am in the process of returning it. The systolic rating is up to 40 points higher than I've been seeing on my old machine. The diastolic is 10 - 30 points higher than expected. Only the pulse is within the expected range and it does detect my AFIB. I've been taking my BP at home for more than 35 years so I know what to expect. I keep track and chart it for my doctor who agrees they are accurate. This does not work - at least not for me. The cuff is supposed to handle up to 16.5" circumference. My arm is 14" and this cuff is too small! It's at least 3 inches shorter than the cuff I have been using. The cuff must be placed EXACTLY over the artery. Most cuffs have a little lee-way but this gives an error if you don't have it just right. It also must be much tighter than other cuffs or it gives an error. It is incredibly difficult to use. It works BACKWARDS! Traditional BP monitors pump up and then register as the pressure releases for the actual reading. This one only goes UP! It tracks everything on the way up and then it just releases all the pressure at once. I think that is part of the inaccuracy. It's just not worth the higher readings to try to get it to work when it obviously won't work! If you are keeping track of your readings for your doctor -- avoid this thing!
