Customer Reviews of Prevention WS-820PV Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor
Customer Review: This is a nice feature.
Summary: 5 Stars
Recently diagnosed with high blood pressure, my Doctor suggested that I keep track of my pressure at home. Since I travel extensively I wanted something compact that I could pack easily.
My wife is a subscriber to Prevention magazine and swears by the content so when I saw this brand I decided to get one.
It is a great little monitor, very accurate, fast and easy to use. I use the two memories to keep track of my morning and evening pressures seperately. When you hit the memory button the unit shows the average of the stored data. This is a nice feature.
I am very satisfied with this unit. Just make sure you follow the directions about keeping your wrist, and the monitor, at you heart level when you take your pressure. I saw that moving the monitor above or below heart level really does give a different treading.
Customer Review: That is a nice feature.
Summary: 5 Stars
Recently bought one of these for my Mom. Very easy to use and the results are right on with the readings she gets at her Doctor's Office. She has a subscription to Prevention magazine so was very confident that the monitor could be trusted as well.
The readings are very fast. Data is stored in the memory and when you press the memory button it automatically shows the average of the stored data. That is a nice feature.
Customer Review: It is not flimsy or made of inferior materials.
Summary: 5 Stars
I'd been wanting to purchase a blood pressure monitor for home use and had really been shopping around for sometime. All the seemingly quality ones I saw at retail stores and pharmacies were in the $70-$90 Range. As I shopped on Amazon.com I enjoyed reading the reviews of the different products. While I was tempted to purchase a lower priced model, some of the reviews about their quality made me do otherwise. This product is quick, accurate and heavy-duty in quality. It is not flimsy or made of inferior materials. For the price, I would truly recommend it.Customer Review: It feels a little awkward sometimes.
Summary: 4 Stars
The Prevention blood pressure monitor gets the job done. It seems to produce fairly reliable results and does its job in a reasonable amount of time. Still, I would prefer a monitor whose face mounted on the upper part of the wrist rather than the underside. It feels a little awkward sometimes. I also wish it worked a little faster too. Still, it has a very large face and anyone can read the results without having a hint of a problem. That being said, I find it to be more than acceptable, yet I wish it were a tad smaller, a bit comfortable and a little quicker with the results.Customer Review: I purchased this monitor based on my physicians recommendation.
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this monitor based on my physicians recommendation. I had an older upper arm BP monitor that gave poor readings. It was time to upgrade to a better machine. This one fits well and reads very fast, and agrees with my Doctors readings.
