serenakbelieves: My 3 year old did not like the forehead thermometers even if we tried to make it fun, and we weren't sure on its accuracy. This penguin is super cute! She was still a little scared at first but once we made it fun, she wasn't scared anymore, she even says hi and bye to the penguin whenever we use it!

Accuracy is a little better, since it's an ear type, you just have to make sure it points towards the eardrum to get the most accurate temperature otherwise it's pretty easy to use. We also check both ears to make sure we get a good reading.

Definitely glad we got this one!

Babyme: Exellent product! This thermometer works so well especially with infants who are constantly moving when you bring anything close to them but due to this penguin design they see it more as their toy and so my little one allows me to bring it close to his ears without crying. Infact I made it a morning ritual where I show him the penguin saying good morning to him and is coming close to his ear to say I love you ☺️

I think the temperature shown so far is very accurate but I think it would be nice to have some light indication to say that the thermometer was placed correctly on the ear.

Olivia Foster: I had high hopes based on reviews, and was willing to spend a little more for accuracy, which seems hard to get. This thermometer has to point at the eardrum to work properly, and that's a matter of pulling on the ear and pushing it this way and that (in my experience), which on a tender head of a sick child, might be worthwhile to get a temple scanner instead. I wasn't ever able to get a normal temp and it was always about 97.5, a degree low. So if you wanted to still get it, test it out on your normal body temp and see what the baseline is.

Jaime M Shachter: This thermometer is very kid-friendly - cute and simple to use. With the one-step button push for a quick reading, the thermometer is easy and efficient. I have a 7 year old and 10 year old and did find that I really had to force the probe into my child's ears (with ear pulled back and up according to directions) to get accurate readings. It seemed to ready lower than our temporal thermometer unless I really got the probe far into the ear canal. This might not be an issue for younger children as this seems more designed for babies/young children. The speed of reading is a positive. It's easy to clean and great for storing readings over time with the memory function.
