The ability to use it in the ear or across the forehead

Easy to use
Great thermometer with awesome features. The light color indicating the temperature is great especially in the dark. My son found the colors to be fun to watch as well. Great to use when your kid is sleeping. Easy to use and very accurate. I would highly recommend!

Nice, good accurate product. Highly recommend
This thermometer is lightweight and easy to use. I like the fact you can use it either on your forehead or take the cover off and use in the ear. It’s quick and accurate temperature readings make this nice. It also changes color if you’re either above or below temperature.

Good digital thermometer if your familiar with using one.
This is a lightweight thermometer that reads a forehead and ear temperature. The ear temperature seemed the most accurate and the forehead readings seemed to be off by a degree or 2. It comes with a nice carrying case. It takes some practice getting used to but overall is a good quality thermometer.

Easy to use!
I previously used a thermometer that goes under the tongue to take a temperature, so this digital thermometer is SO much easier. It takes the reading almost instantaneously, and the color of the screen immediately indicates if the temperature is in the safe/warning/danger ranges by being green/yellow/red, respectively. It's so easy that it actually results in my family using it to check temperatures more often, because we don't have to think about finding the little plastic sleeves that fit over the oral thermometer we used before.There are additional settings on the device that allow you to save some temps to memory, but it seems sort of complicated and not particularly intuitive. I didn't find that this was a feature I was looking for in a thermometer, so I haven't really familiarized myself with the process and making it easy to figure out - maybe if this is something that you would use in a thermometer, it would make more sense to you.The device itself does feel sorta... cheap and plastic. That does not necessarily speak to the quality of the technology or the accuracy of the temperatures, but the way the buttons feel does make it seem like it might not hold up after a lot of use. My only other negative observation is that - you can remove the cover on the reader to take a temperature from in the ear, rather than skin contact (like forehead, which is how my family primarily uses it), but it makes me uncomfortable to not have any sort of protective cover for it being inserted into the ear. I remember using an ear thermometer growing up, and we had disposable covers for the tip of it, so with this model, I am uncomfortable with just sticking it into people's ears and having to wipe/sanitize it myself each time. It's not a huge deal-breaker, because really what I use it for is to read forehead temperature, so for that purpose, I think this is a satisfactory and inexpensive option to have for ease of use at home.

Slightly inconsistent, but overall very nice
I really appreciate the quick measurement, and the ease of reading the display on this thermometer. I also like that I can use this as a surface temperature probe. The batteries were included in the box, which was very nice in a product at this price point. The packaging is high quality, and the instructions, though definitely translated from another language into English, are essentially clear. There is either a slight inconsistency in calibration, or a bit of a learning curve to getting consistent temperatures - I was not able to duplicate any temperature on myself, even placing the probe exactly in the same place mere seconds apart. The instructions state that the accuracy is within +/-0.5°F, but the temps I took were outside that range (97.3-99.9). This may just be that I didn't have the perfect technique. Overall, it's easy to use, and as long as it's not being used on someone who is critically ill, the temperature inconsistency is mostly acceptable. Overall, definitely worth the price.

Not a great thermometer to use with toddlers
I’ll preface this by saying I have a typical, squirmy 2 year old. I’ll get a different temperature read out at every scan if I scan my kid’s head multiple times in a row. Sometimes 2 degrees or more difference in a matter of seconds. Like I said, the kid is always moving, so a full scan across the forehead type thermometer is just something that doesn’t really work for us. I seem to get a better, more consistent read out when I take my own temperature, so using with an older child or yourself might be okay. I like the color coded readout for normal, slight fever and high fever, just wish this was something that we could use with our kid.

Fast and Convenient!
There are many times I won't take my temperature because I don't feel like holding a thermometer in my mouth. I have always appreciated the quick forehead scan thermometers found in many doctor's offices and hospitals. Now I am more likely to track possible fevers with this affordable version of that same thermometer. The case is helpful to protect it while in storage. I wish I had had one of these when my kids were small!
