This machine is not accurate. I have checked it against other machines and the Dr. and it always reads high. Had already thrown away packaging when I realized it didn't work right so can't return it.

Comments about HoMedics Deluxe Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor with DK Technology, BPA-300:

These days you can carry your whole music collection anywhere with you. You can test your blood sugar with a tiny meter and a mere drop of blood. Why does a decent blood pressure monitor have to still involve bulky arm cuffs attached by cords to a bulky meter? At least this one has a storage case that is actually big enough and even has a handle.

 
[...] homedics ultra deluxe automati
By Lori the walkerVerified Reviewer from Oak, Creek Wisconsin on 6/25/2007
Pros:
Adjustable, Large numbers
Cons:
Bld pressure too low, Made me worry, Unreliable
Best Uses:
Home Use, Hypertension, Wanted accuracy
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about HoMedics Deluxe Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor with DK Technology, BPA-300:

Husband has high bld pressure. This monitor gave reading of very low pressure. I was very worried about my husbands health. Too low pressure you could be having a stroke. When it tightened up it never reached the 200 mark like in the doctors office that is why the pressure was so low. For the high price you would think it would be accurate. I had such high hopes for this product, and it let me down.

 
Inaccurate when it doesn't flash errors
By Mary Katherine from Orlando on 4/11/2007
Pros:
error 3 out of 5 times
Cons:
Unreliable
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about HoMedics Deluxe Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor with DK Technology, BPA-300:

Just doesn't want to behave, constantly showing errors. The irregular heartbeat was never picked up. I did like the fact it has a larger cuff, but if it is not consistant the larger cuff is useless. I am returning it tomorrow.

 
Inaccurate results, check against doctor
By Jas from Roanoke, IN on 3/20/2007
Cons:
Unreliable
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about HoMedics Deluxe Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor with DK Technology, BPA-300:

After using this product to monitor my BP at home for the doctor we found it was reading significantly lower than my actual blood pressure. My blood pressure was 160/90 but the monitor said it was 85/61. I would not recommend this for patients on medicine for Hypertension using home monitoring to inform their doctor of the results.

 
Consider this brand and model
By LoriVerified Reviewer from Columbus, OH on 3/9/2007
Pros:
Accurate, Adjustable, Easy To Use, Gives A Quick Reading, Larger cuff size
Best Uses:
Home Use, Hypertension
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about HoMedics Deluxe Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor with DK Technology, BPA-300:

Our family needed a larger cuff size. This model came with a standard cuff and a large cuff (fits up to 18.1 inches). The on-line description didn't list cuff sizes. Model was purchased in store after reading box and trying two other unacceptable models. It takes a few tries to know where the proper cuff position is for every person. Once that is figured out, no inflation problems and no errors in reading measurement. Large numbers easy to read and two person memory very helpful. This model is a little more expensive than some other monitors but it is definately worth it.

 
Works well most of time
By BillF from Warrenville, IL on 2/26/2007

Accurate, Adjustable, Easy To Use, Gives A Quick Reading
Best Uses:
Home Use, Hypertension, Irregular Heart Beat
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about HoMedics Deluxe Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor with DK Technology, BPA-300:

Works well most of time; times when it doesn't are not clear - may be due to arm position but that is not definitive. The values are easy to read and memory feature is sound. Helped me determine whether I could go off of anti-hypertenives medicine ( confirmed observations that no, I could not). It was able to quantify results.
