Braun Sensian Contact 5 Forehead Thermometer, Gentle Digital Thermometer for Adults and All Ages with Professional Accuracy and Color Coded Guidance

I was tired of waking my children up when they were sick to take their temperature. This thermometer allows me to turn it on, place it on their forehead and take their temperature in a matter of seconds without disturbing their sleep. The digital face lights up so you can easily read the results even in the dark. The thermometer shows the actual temperature in either Fahrenheit or Celsius depending on your preference. Along with the actual reading the thermometer glows yellow for a mild temperature and red for a high fever. The fact that you put it on their forehead and not in their mouth allows you to take several family members temperatures without the fear of spreading the germs. The price is fair for the product. I have not had to change batteries since we have owned it. I like this product and would purchase it again.

Our son was sick multiple times from daycare with fevers. We used a couple different thermometers and this is our favorite. You can get temp from actual contact with forehead. It will only read temp contactless if within a certain distance for accuracy. Others read it no matter how far you point. Highly recommend!

The only way to go for temperature-taking. Every digital thermometer I've had either didn't register the temperature correctly or simply stopped working, even with a new battery.

This is a pretty good quality device. Very easy and clear to read. I think it's accurate but it does seem somewhat sensitive to ambient temperatures, so be sure to allow it to adjust to the temperature of the room before using (like all forehead thermometers).

I purchased four thermometers to try out. I figured this one being +$40 it would be highly accurate. I was wrong. I took my temperature three times with each thermometer over the course of an hour. Of the four thermometers that I purchased three of them showed my temperature to be 97.3 to 97.4 every time (this is normal for me). The Braun thermometer, however, showed my temperature being anywhere between 94.0 and 96.2 wildly off from the other three that I purchased and from its own readings. The indicator light only lights up for about a half a second so you will likely miss the green, yellow, or red. It is a useless feature, since it doesn’t stay lit with color. Of the four devices, the Braun was the only one that required that the unit be pressed firmly against the forehead, not AWAY from the forehead, AGAINST the forehead which means it has to be cleaned after each use. The three thermometers I purchased that show accurate readings were each under $20, and one even came with its own carrying case to keep it from getting dusty. Unfortunately, this expensive unit is non refundable. In short, this unit is inaccurate, higher maintenance than the other thermometers I purchased, lighting to read result is useless, and wildly expensive, with no return/refund.

Good price and easy to use. I recommend this highly

This thermometer is SO easy to use. When you don't feel good or are grabbing this at 3 am you don't even have to look at it to be able to take your temp. One button on/off. Put to forehead just between eyes. Press the Temp button. Done. It'll turn off by itself if you just put it down. It takes 2 AAA batteries which I like better than the "everything has to be charged with USB" trend >:( There's a cap that covers the laser lens that snaps on or off. Readout is clear with colored background...green for OK, yellow for high, red for fever. My phone doesn't take great pics but the colors are vivid and numbers crisp. I've had much heavier, complicated thermometers that stored multiple readings,took 3 or 4 tries to be accurate, had several buttons. This is light and sweet. Recommend!

Great

The LCD is slightly broken upon receipt. Still working though. We did not bother to return as it took time to be delivered and we already needed it
