Non-Contact Forehead Thermometer with Fever Alarm for Adults by Caroune

Rod M. Holland: Yah, I got exposed and then got a cold....ok, I know its a cold now.... But then, I didn't, and the thermometers we used to hold under the kids arms were just not cutting it, and I had like 8 hours left on prime day...so I grabbed this.

It works fine. Why did I deduct a star? Because when I first opened it up, it acted a bit spastic until I took off the cap, measured ear temp, then put the cap back on. Then it measured forehead temp just fine. The cap did not seem to be mis-mounted in any way, so I don't have any explanation. It was 46 deg outside when it was delivered, maybe it was still cold. I don't know. But, it cost it a star. Still a reasonable buy at the $20 I paid on prime day.

arianaibarra1: I purchased it because it has a function to allow temperature readings of other objects. I wanted to be able to measure the external temp of foods and beverages. I also tried it out in my vehicle during a warm afternoon; while the temperature in the area was 86F, inside my car, even with the windows cracked a bit, it was 102F. Quite a difference.

I like the reading speed and the back-lit display as well. I work in the healthcare industry and my temperature is measured everyday at work. This is a safety precaution of course, and our new thermometer gives me an extra layer of comfort because I can now measure my temperature before heading into work. As we are not supposed to go to work with any COVID-like symptoms, such as a fever, this thermometer's ease of use makes it simple to take my temperature before commuting to work. It will likely be particularly useful in the winter months when respiratory diseases, such as flu, are more prevalent.
Highly recommended.

BHerbert: This is an excellent thermometer. While it is branded Caroune on the Amazon website, this branding does not appear on the packaging or the excellent documentation. Rather, it is clearly identified as a product manufactured by Shenzhen Pacom Medical Instruments, clearly a Chinese manufacturer. As advertised, it supports temperature readings from forehead and ear.

Now the product. As for all so-called touch-less digital thermometers, it gives the most accurate reading very close to or even lightly touching the forehead. It should not be surprising that the greater the distance from the forehead, the less accurate (lower) the reading will be. As the product documentation states, measured forehead temperature can fluctuate up to 1 degree Fahrenheit (0.5 degree Celcius). If require less fluctuation, use a traditional mercury thermometer (if you can find one).

Summary: this is an excellent digital thermometer for a good price.

happymom: I bought this thermometer for my work. Because sometimes I have to meet clients in person. I decided that whether these clients would like it or not, I would ask everyone I met to test as much as possible to protect myself and my family. The results were quite unexpected. Everyone was very cooperative, and everyone was very concerned about their temperature after the test. Because this thermometer is really convenient and can be completed in a second. There is a temperature indicator light that makes it easier to read. As long as the temperature is within the safe zone we can relax. I've compared it many times with other thermometers. This thermometer is very accurate. This is very important. Inaccurate medical equipment is not only a waste of money, more importantly, but it will also harm my health. I recommend this product.

Madison: There are only two words to describe it. I'm satisfied with it. I'm afraid the child will have a fever. I'm not safe to use mercury. I have prepared a temperature gun in advance. The temperature gun has been tested several times. The temperature display is very accurate. Compared with mercury, it has no error. It has high accuracy. It can not only measure the temperature of forehead, but also the temperature of ear canal. The function is very user-friendly, I want to buy this kind of thermometer, which can save us a lot of time, but also has the memory function. It has a large capacity. It can check many groups of memory values. It's great. The most important thing is to measure the water temperature for the baby every day. It's really good!
