Review of Omron M2 Basic Blood Pressure Monitor (Personal Care)

The blood pressure monitor is a breeze to use, from unpacking to setting up for use took more than a couple of minutes. Its simply a case of connecting the tube from the arm cuff into the main unit then putting the cuff around the appropriate part of your arm, pressing the single on/off/start button initiates the measurement (simple as pie!). Once the sequence is finished the systolic and diastolic as well as your currently measured pulse/heart rate all displayed on the large clear LCD display. Should your measurements fall outside of normal ranges then a heart symbol flashes on the display after measurement to indicate this to you.

The machine come complete with a nylon travel bag to store the machine,cuff and manual, however the bag does not have a carry handle which might be useful if you need to carry the kit out and about for instance.

The well written manual comes in the following languages English,French Spanish, German, Italian,Dutch Russian and Arabic, however its so simple to use you perhaps wont really need to refer to the manual. There also a chart included to record your measurement onto should you require.

The machine comes supplied with four AAA alkaline type batteries ready for use, but alternatively can be used with a general purpose 6V DC electrical adapter (available separately) thereby bypassing the need for batteries.

Although the product is described as basic model, the performance is anything but perhaps, decent build quality, reasonably accurate, large clear LCD display and the price that Amazon are offering the unit is excellent value.

Good: Good value, good build quality, carrying case included

Bad: Perhaps could be slightly more compact.
