"i ruled out the more expensive gadgets such as the fitbit and garmin models due to poor accuracy reviews and multiple options which i would never use"

"there are a lot of both cheap and very expensive pulse oximeters available i've bought cheaper ones but these are not generally certified and not always good value for money"

"checking my grandchild’s oxygen levels as he has a chest infection"

"also bought another for my elderly mum with severe copd"

"tried new batteries duracell and cleaned the sensor but it was still showing vastly inaccurate readings heartbeat 23 beats per minute oxygen 88 then 100 then 67%"

"quick delivery negative side is so annoying bleeping sound"

"i find it incredibly useful as i suffer from anaemia and lung problems to test my oxygen levels in those circumstances"

"doesn’t work won’t take readings"

"very good for black friday price inexpensive and provides comparable readings too expensive alternatives"

"i was recently discharged from hospital after a nasty bout of pneumonia"

"it seems acurate"

"the device shows a reasonably clear graph with large numbering for the heartbeat & sp02 when it arrived one of the batteries supplied had leaked but i had some rechargeables lying about and they worked fine"

"also i can’t seem to see if you can turn off the annoying constant beeping when tachicardic"

"bought as a replacement model"

"but within fifteen minutes proved to be "awful" and providing a host of contracting and impossible readings"

"great little gadget"

"quick delivery negative side is so annoying bleeping sound"

"allready used it a few times in some emergency cases and i can say it is sometimes more reliable than the oxymetres on some ambulances"

"you can turn that off by holding the centre button down for 2 seconds but having to do this every time i use it is a real downside as a healthcare professional because it is exceptionally irritating and distracting to me and the patient"

"i was originally looking for a cheap basic wristwatch to monitor my heart rate on an exercise bike"

"i came across a patient sats as low as 74% and thought maybe my sats probe was faulty but got the same reading when i compared it to another one"

"this one most definitely isn't"

"turns out that the shrink wrapped aaa batteries supplied with it were completely dead"

"i ruled out the more expensive gadgets such as the fitbit and garmin models due to poor accuracy reviews and multiple options which i would never use"

"i can see why some people might complain about the beeping if it bothered me i would investigate muffling it with blu tac but i don't mind it too much"

"nonetheless this shouldn’t replace seeing your gp if you get a low oxygen reading"

"pros: build quality is nice easy to use pulse waveform is very useful uses aaa batteries turns off automatically pretty accurate compared to pulse oximeter on a lifepak 15 neutral: the default setting is beeping on which might be distracting to some"

"wouldn't recommend for this reason as many others do not have this feature"

"i had my doubts but this is a great little device"

"annoyingly the reading screen is on the palm side which is very annoying when you’re trying to administer help to someone and have to keep pulling their fingers back to get a reading"

"the device is switched on easily by pressing the gray button"

"the direction in which the data is displayed is easily changed to fit user needs depending on whether you are looking at the display yourself or have it on someone else you may want the numbers to run in a different direction so it's easier to read "

"got this and it work's great let's me see if having a flare up with asthma and oxygen level"

"cons: nothing really"

"i am a asthma sufferer and a clear indication that my condition is worsening is when my oxygen levels drop"

"very easy to use bought a second one for a relation but first one failed to work after 6 months would not recommend"

"i have ordered this pulse oximeter after ordering a bad previous one"

"but that's something that can be replaced"

"this was a very expensive oximeter"

"i bought it as this time last yr had bad bout of pneumonia this week feb 2020 had bad chest infection with the product i could tell with sat result if was poss more serious than just chest inf also now if having to call for a appt at the docs or that stupid 111 line mention your sats are low with exact figure you will get a immediate response great item esp with holder and lanyard can keep with you to check where ever you are if feeling unwell inc anyone else very handy to have"

"not really sure of whether or not this is accurate i bought for my child who has severe asthma but just couldn’t rely on it due to the variations in numbers when checking for eg we put it on and it said spo2 was 89 then we tried again and it was 95 so not reliable enough for my use although seemed a bit more reliable on adult fingers"

"total waste of money!"

"dont leave it until it's too late"

"i bought it as this time last yr had bad bout of pneumonia this week feb 2020 had bad chest infection with the product i could tell with sat result if was poss more serious than just chest inf also now if having to call for a appt at the docs or that stupid 111 line mention your sats are low with exact figure you will get a immediate response great item esp with holder and lanyard can keep with you to check where ever you are if feeling unwell inc anyone else very handy to have"

"the product is wonderful i was rushed into hospital when my oxiygen level dropped to 45 an i was very badly struggling to breath i was on oxygen in hospital for a week and felt pretty scared on returning home as i live by myself and i am 77 years young buying the oximetry gave me the confidence i needed"

"in the morning having yet another cardiac event not being able to breathe and thinking this time was the end"

"unfortunately this product does not assist in this monitoring process because of inconsistent readings and is therefore unreliable"

"product is rather pricey probably should be a quarter of the price"

"the device automatically shuts itself off after a few seconds of non use"

"alarm sounds if level below 95 this is a bit annoying until levels stabilise and sounds cease"

"very disconcerting"

"works well takes a while to get a reading not to long but longer than i was expecting but really handy got it for my dad who has had health problems this year and his heart races sometimes so a good way of keeping an eye on him when he's not to good"

"i bought this as i’ve been severely ill over the last few months have had a couple of operations and am writing this review from my hospital bed this pulse oximetry is as accurate as you can get it has alerted me to my pulse drop and low blood oxygen saturation i’m in hospital with early signs of sepsis receiving antibiotics you can buy with confidence i bet my life on it 5 stars if not more"

"will be returning this"

"tiny niggles would be that it presses down on your finger a bit too firmly and it starts beeping an alarm if the pulse goes over 130 or below 50 or if the oxygen level goes below 94"

"it has been very useful in the past when i've had to describe show to doctors or my boss that i'm having severe chest pain"

"however it’s extremely fiddly and it often doesn’t provide a reading of any sort unless you have 6 or 7 attempts and then it seems to spring into action"

"turns out if your heartrate is 124 whilst sitting still people actually take you seriously and finally refer you to cardiology after 2 years of complaining of sporadic chest pain shooting pain in my neck and left arm"

"these readings were taken two minutes apart and are obviously incorrect!"

"perfect little oximeter"

"i bought this as i’ve been severely ill over the last few months have had a couple of operations and am writing this review from my hospital bed this pulse oximetry is as accurate as you can get it has alerted me to my pulse drop and low blood oxygen saturation i’m in hospital with early signs of sepsis receiving antibiotics you can buy with confidence i bet my life on it 5 stars if not more"

"waste of money"

"as i suffer from angina i am always checking my pulse to put my mind at ease"

"the cover of the batteries broke straight away but overall im still very happy with this product"

"i have replaced the batteries twice but still get either no result after 5 minutes or these inaccurate readings"

"accuracy unknown but consistency very high"

"the only disappointing feature was that there was no blood pressure waveform displayed only the instantaneous blood pressure"

"i’ve tested this against hospital ones and it’s wrong especially the oxygen levels are wrong please be careful with this one"

"i purchased this product for my husband who suffers with ipf"

"nothing to dislike about it"

"it only had conection problems about 3 times during this 3 months and i am using i one to 15 times a day"

"only for one us us it showed 100 a couple of times after pressing so hard on the infra red rays!"

"the readings were inconsistent and i did not have sufficient confidence to keep this product as it does need to be accurate in as much as consistency is important"

"inaccurate readings that fluctuate widely with each reading hence not accurate"

"this has taken so much stress away from checking over my heart warrior"

"wasn't sure how accurate this would be mixed amazon reviews but have tested against the similar metres used in my cardio rehabilitation programme and the one used by the hospital heart function clinic and it gave exactly the same results"

"whilst this does quickly report the pulse and updates the pulse quickly it has one major drawback"

"what’s not to like!"

"personally i find that the oxi 27 grips my finger a little too tightly and after a few minutes becomes very slightly uncomfortable and hence i have deducted a star from the rating it may be that the hinge & spring loosen up a bit after a bit of usage but for the time being it just feels a little too tight and i would say i have average sized fingers"

"i have had 2 or 3 oximeters over the years but have never had one as poor as this"

"im afraid this came with some minor damage to the battery cover meaning the cover keeps popping open"

"the beep alerts you to a drop in oxygen mind dropped a couple of times so i will be using this often to monitor my health"

"often inaccurate pulse takes very long time to give a proper oxygen reading"

"it has an alarm feature that emits a loud beep if the pulse goes below 50 bpm"

"i can only assume it is accurate as my own oxygen levels read okay so i assume the same goes for his reading"

"gives some indication of stress to enable reaction against that also shows when deep breathing is required to increase oxygen blood level"

"the problem with this is once you put it on your finger and your oxygen goes to a certain level than a massive beep keeps going off"

"i lost my partners old one so i have replaced it with this one"

"came out of hospital and needed cheap o2 meter to monitor levels excellent device i’d recommend but it didn’t arrive on time"

"exactly as advertised"
