After several cheap options from the pharmacy, I ended up with this one. The first time you take your blood pressure, you immediately notice the difference! Spend those extra 10-15 euros compared to the cheap options to have something reliable. In such a particularly sensitive matter as your health and, by extension, the reliability of your blood pressure measurements
Perhaps its measurements are accurate, most analog pressure gauges have accuracy in their measurements, but if every time you measure the pressure you have to adjust the pressure gauge with the tool so that it zeros... that's why the screwdriver is included in the package, something I haven't encountered elsewhere, it is annoying, to say the least. Also, it doesn't sound very good.
When precise monitoring, measurement, and recording are needed, analog pressure gauges are the way to go. In contrast to expensive and branded ones, whose measurement is affected by environmental and anatomical factors!
It is a very good product, it does its job very well and my doctor recommends this product. It is better than a digital-electronic one which does not have accurate measurement.
I compared it to another Japanese one and it gives exactly the same measurements, it looks good, and it also comes with a special screwdriver to zero the pressure gauge
I needed to buy a blood pressure monitor to measure my blood pressure for a period of time. I wanted something cheap and of good quality. After reading the other reviews, I also bought this one. The measurements were not accurate for me. Especially the built-in stethoscope that it has, I couldn't hear anything at all. Especially the low pressure, I always heard it at a high number. With another digital blood pressure monitor from a well-known and more expensive brand, I had different measurements. In the end, I regretted buying it and borrowed a digital one to do my job.
I don't think you need to spend a fortune to see a measurement. No matter how much money you spend, you will have the same pressure. Health to everyone.
Since digital ones often deviate, I decided to get an analog one just to have (I'm not a regular user, just to have one). That's why, having seen and operated a few others, I have to say it has good quality materials with a cotton (probably) strap and controls that look quite high-quality for the price. The headset is attached to the strap, which I think makes it easier for putting on and taking off, and for storage, everything is together. As for durability, I don't know because I don't use it frequently, but it seems quite sturdy (stitches/materials, instruments).
For the record, initially I had ordered another one, from a different company (the cheapest one on skroutz at the time), but it didn't come as the one in the photo, but a worse one with a strap without a "counter" metal rod/safety that you can easily tighten, while the material was cheap (nylon strap, feather manometer, etc.). It was returned the next day as "unacceptable" (it didn't match the description) and I was refunded the purchase money. Then I chose this one and the difference in quality is obvious.
