Vive Precision Digital Blood Pressure Monitor - Upper Arm Cuff Kit for Accurate Heart Rate Measurement

DocAJ: Never thought I'd need to monitor my BP, but here we are. I purchased this based on a friend's rec and am very happy with it. Ease of use right out of the box is great. Read the instructions on how to set the time/date so you can best track your readings from the get-go. I've found this to be very accurate as I work with my doc to get my BP sorted. It's great because I take it to my visits and can click through my BP reading history and they really appreciate that. Only feature I would suggest - to be able to delete certain readings without deleting 'all', in case I feel a reading isn't quite right or I repeat it to make sure. Would also be nice to have a QR code and wifi connectivity to help with tracking, likely a feature to be found in a unit at a higher price point, but something to consider when looking for a device. Overall happy with this product quality, features and accuracy.

Jory Humphreys: Easy to use and fairly fast. Accuracy is not a real value as your personal pressure can be affected by 100 variables. Unless you know how blood pressure works you may see readings that appear quite different from what you are expecting. The machine is reliable and repeatable. Any readings you think are concerning should be discussed with your provider.

Rohan K.: Everytime i check BP it gives a random reading... money wasted.. Doctors also do not recommend.

LeeBug: Great product, great price. I purchased this as a second meter since I need to log measurements because of an illness but commute and didn't want to carry one all the time if I didn't have to. I like it more than my other one which is already a good item. It is pretty quiet compared to other types I have used (bp meters will inherently be noisy but this one doesn't startle in my experience yet). It has a function to switch between two different users to keep separate memories instead of all results together, which is brilliant and not even a feature on many more expensive alternatives. It alerts of abnormal heart beat which is helpful as well if it is something you deal with (or even to let you know it's a new concern if you've not had it before, I suppose). I bought the case for it also. Only two cirticisms -- 1) it does not show low blood pressure as a bad thing like it does high. The condition I have that needs to be monitored involves a lot of hypotension, and it's kind of odd to see severely low readings in the "green" range! and 2) it cannot be used while in the case, the monitor part needs to be lifted out, though most monitors do not allow for that anyway...

Gizmo: I really like this machine. I like that it has an A or B on it giving two people to ability to do the blood pressure log. I love the big screen on it and the numbers are big as well. I like that on the left it shows green, yellow, orange, and red - letting you know if your bp is getting too high or within range. It stores up to 10 readings at a time. The cuff is awesome. The velcro is very strong and I don't have to worry about it coming undone before it is done taking my bp. Setting up the time/date, year, and time is fairly easy. It took me a few times to get it all done but a total of just about a minute or two. The instructions were pretty easy to understand. I love that you can use batteries or the adapter if you want. It is very light and pretty compact. I take where ever I need to go. You do have to be careful that if you are traveling with it and you accidentally hit the start button and it comes on. It would be nice to have a switch to keep that from happening.

GB: This is an extremely compact and easy to use digital home BP monitor. I've had several OMRON brand monitors in the past, and the operation of this VIVE monitor is very similar.
If you've never used a BP monitor before, relax, these are really very easy to operate.
The instructions (included) are very easy to follow, even for those who are just using a BP monitor for the first time.

The LCD display has large numerals and is very easy to read. Controls are simple and clearly marked.
The unit case is white plastic, easy to see and locate in a darkened bedroom.
Workmanship and build quality seems fine. Everything connects easily and works as it should.

The unit uses 4 AAA batteries, and these are easy to change. Battery life is good, you won't need to change them very often.

A nice feature of this VIVE unit is that it has memory and can record and store up to 60 previous readings for comparison and tracking a trend.
The playback function is easy to use.
Better yet, this unit can store 2 separate histories, each with up to 60 stored readings, so two people can share the same unit and still keep their histories separate.

As...
