I purchased this to replace a typical local drug store ear thermometer. This device is much more accurate than the more expensive one! Tested and tested and re-tested and every time without fail within acceptable difference to a traditional thermometer (+- .2 max difference). Only thing I don't enjoy is there is no light for the display, so at night it's harder to read.
 Not what I'd expect from Braun. January 24, 2006

I am sorry, but I cannot share the enthusiasm for this product. The readings are innacurate - several readings taken at short intervalls showed deviations of up to 2.5 degrees. To prove this, I repeated the test on myself with the same results. This is very critical since most doctors recommend a visit to the emergency room if the child's temperature exceeds 105. With this thermometer there is - at least for me - no accurate way of telling.
In addition, the button that activates the reading process gets stuck a lot, thereby producing no result at all. I finally replaced it with a professional model, the same kind that doctors use. Expensive, but worth it.
I am usually a fan Of Braun products. Not this one!

We decided to buy this product despite being told that only rectal thermometer is accurate for infants. Nevertheless, knowing the usual high quality of Braun products, we gave it a try and are very happy about it!
It's one of the best investments we've ever made. We loved the following features:
- You do not disturb the baby and can measure the temperature even if the baby is asleep;
- The result is displayed in 2 seconds;
- Very ergonomic;
- With an easy used lens filter ejector, can be used for the whole family.
The thermometer has a convenient feature of switching between Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature scales. Also, if you need more than 1 temperature measurement stored in the memory, you can consider Braun IRT 4520 - it saves 8 readings.
Excellent gift, especially for baby shower!

The ThermoScan is very accurate and easy to use. Now, I can take my twin babies temperatures in about two seconds without bothering them at all. I've even taken their temperatures while they were asleep without waking them up. It's a great product.
Excellent! September 9, 2005

It's a good thermometer, my son (3 and a half years old) has a problem: when he has fever, I can't feel it when I touch him. This item is very quickly to take his temperature and I don't bore him any more with others thermometers. Thanks BRAUN for it!
