Omron M2 Basic

Advantages: Brand reliability. Relatives have been using other models for about 5 years, nothing breaks.

Disadvantages: The cuff is small, overweight and "rolling" will not work. Strange, on the M1 (hand-held pear) bought long ago, the cuff is large.

Comment: I bought M2 as a gift. At home there are models M1 (manual) and M6, they measure in the same way. I bought the M6 ​​because of a strong arrhythmia of my grandmother, they thought it was wrong, but everything is the same exact (albeit a big difference in price), he calmed her down. Advice: M2 and M6 differ in design and hand movement sensors, cuff size, M6 battery saves, they live very long. Otherwise, all tanometers of this company are measured in the same way. M6 works for 4 years, 3-6 times a day, measurements, everything is fine, I change the batteries 1 time a year.

Advantages: Compact, handy.

Disadvantages: Didn't find

Comment: You can take it with you on a trip.

Advantages: accurate, does not crush the hand

Disadvantages: not detected

Comment: the old tonometer had to be replaced when it failed. But since it is no longer produced, we had to take a more modern version. I bought it at the pharmacy closest to my home, relied on the advice of a pharmacist. This is how the Omron automatic tonometer appeared at my place. At first, he was wary of it, the memory of the old device, more massive, complex, solid, was still alive. This one is like a toy. But over time I got used to it and now I don't understand how I lived with that dinosaur. I use it with pleasure.

Advantages: compactness weight manufacturer's warranty

Disadvantages: no shortcomings were found during the use. Usage period: 3.5 months

Comment: I bought the Omron M2 Basic tonometer for myself. The pressure has been torturing for more than one year, and it is not very convenient to measure the pressure with a mechanical tonometer, so I decided to buy an automatic one. After reading the reviews, I settled on the M2 Basic model. This tonometer suited me in terms of configuration and price. First of all, it attracted attention for its ease of use and weight. It is so lightweight and compact that it is not difficult to taketake him on the road. I would like to note the comfortable cuff, which is suitable even for thin hands from 22 cm in volume. The cuff is fixed quickly and conveniently. The cuff itself indicates how to properly fix it on the arm. It is comfortable and does not squeeze the hand during measurement. Tonometer with a large and easy-to-read display. There is only one large button for use. The readings on the display are highlighted in large numbers, even a person with poor eyesight will see them. Thanks to the presence of memory, you can view your previous measurements. I have been using the tonometer for more than three months. I'm happy with my purchase. Nice and easy to use tonometer, accurate measurement !!

Advantages: Simple, secure, case included for easy storage. Just take a picture of the check on your phone - the manufacturer's warranty is 5 years, if you can present the check (a paper copy of the check will fade in a year).

Comment:

Advantages: Excellent build quality and materials. Batteries included. The cuff is easily detached from the device.

Disadvantages: I will say right away this is not a drawback: the cuff for 32 turned out to be exactly in size (there was an AED tonometer, his cuff was declared 32 and in fact about 40 cm. I weigh 178 100 kg, not particularly good, but the cuff turned out to be small.

Comment: I bought it for myself, I had an AED tonometer before (I took it from my parents). This tonometer turned out to be more technological, more convenient, but the moment with the cuff spoiled the impression. The cuff has an anatomical cut.

Advantages: Accurate, simple, inexpensive.

Disadvantages: No.

Comment: Good value for money. I took the tonometer for my parents, they are elderly people, so I tried to choose the tonometer as simple as possible to use. They liked the tonometer, they said it was convenient and the numbers on the display are large, you can see them well. They have been using it for 2 months already. There is a built-in memory - it can store up to 30 measurements. So you can check or view changes in readings over time. In general, this tonometer model is far ahead of their previous mechanical apparatus. And with this tonometer it is convenient to measure the pressure yourself.

Advantages: Build quality, useful additional features, memory for 30 measurements. Already in the process of measuring pressure, the upper and lower limits of readings are fixed, which is faster than that of a mechanical tonometer.

Disadvantages: Not identified during use.

Comment: I bought it relatively recently. This is my first electronic blood pressure monitor. The build quality is good. convenient equipment. The large LCD display clearly shows the pressure and pulse readings. It is very easy to operate, perhaps even an elderly person who has not dealt with electric tonometers can figure it out. Despite the fact that I do not use it for a long time, I liked the device. Recommend)

Advantages: Accurate and electronic

Disadvantages: -

Comment: I didn’t trust electronic blood pressure monitors before. They wrote on the Internet that their testimony is often inaccurate, I was afraid ... My daughter advised me, her husband uses it. Then, tired of advising, I presented it. It shows everything correctly, besides, I can see the screen well - it's a sin not to see such large numbers!

Advantages: plain

Disadvantages: did not see

Comment: I ordered myself an Omron M2 Basic. I keep a pressure diary, I have to write down the result twice every day. And I am not on friendly terms with technology, so pressing the button and getting a number is the most convenient thing - definitely “for” for its simplicity.
