Reviewer: KRM,
I'm sending this back. We got it because our doctor said the wrist cuffs are not reliable. (We have a wrist cuff of a different brand.) However, we've compared them, and for my mom there is no significant difference: both monitors have a large range of error (variation in repeated readings), but they overlap. Also, my mom cannot use the upper-arm cuff herself, so I have to do it for her, whereas she can operate the wrist cuff herself.

But the real problem is that the Omron cannot measure my father's BP, and he's the one the the higher blood pressure. In the week plus since it arrived, trying half a dozen times a day, we've had only two successful readings. The wrist cuff, on the other hand, works every time. It does occasionally give an anomalously high reading (maybe twice a week), but taking two readings with the wrist cuff to compensate for that is still more reliable than six 'error' readings with the Omron. And it's nice that they don't have to call me every time they want to take their blood pressure.

My doctor said get the manual blood pressure monitor. You don't need to pay for extra features. She said she did it all day and I could use it once a day. It was easy to use and much cheaper.

Excellent product, recommended by doctor. Took it to doctor today to have it calibrated and it agreed with his monitor. The only thing I would change is to have spent the additional money for the automatic inflatable cuff.
Difficult to use!

The product description stated, "Manual blood pressure monitor is the simplest way to take blood pressure readings at home." So I did not get the self inflating model. I pump the bulb as stated in the directions (I follow the directions exactly). It takes many attempts before I get a reading. And I wait the required time before a new attempt. Even though I do exactly the same thing sometimes I get a EE (underinflated) and sometimes I get an E (overinflated). By the time I get a reading I don't know if I have high blood pressure because I have high blood pressure or because I am totally frustrated.
Accurate Monitor

At first I had a few problems getting a reading because the instructions were not as clear as they could have been. Once I got it figured out, I have liked using the monitor. Obviously the automatic one would be better, but this was in my price range.

This is the second united I've bought from Amazon--terrific monitor, dependable and reliable. Used the first one for over 2 year.
Easy and accurate

Why pay more (and I paid but seven bills here for new, really)? Manual bulb EASY to use and very accurate with storage (more so, than one-time doctor's office visit during which you, perhaps, got angry over long wait).
Cheap machine
 
Review Date: January 9, 2010
Reviewer: John V. Higgins, Grahamsville, NY
The monitor is a cheaply built machine. All other monitors I've had male plugs on the ends of the tubes to the bulb and the arm cuff to be inserted into openings in the body of the machine. This has nothing on the ends of the tubes; they are to be pushed over two nipples on the case and held there by the power of faith. Not only do the tubes leak, causing many error readings, but they fall off when the cuff is unstrapped. Machine sells for a good price but isn't even worth that.
It's perfect

My wife wants to buy a blood pressure monitor which is simple to use without bells and whistles. First she wants to a manual one because the auto-inflation may over-inflate and make her uncomfortable. Secondly, she does not use it very often and does not want to get a high-tech gadget and read instruction every time before using it. If recording is needed, she can write the numbers onto a paper and save the paper together with the monitor. The build quality is very good and the display is clear. I could pay twice for a more complicated one but HEM-432C simply serves her purposes.
