This thermometer is a lifesaver! The color-coded readings make it super easy to understand temperatures at a glance. I’ve used it for oral checks and for my children's under-arm temps—works great every time. Water-resistant and fast, it’s perfect for any household. Highly recommend! Read more

Accuracy approved with comparison of 3 same devices Vicks SpeedRead Digital. Absolutely same temperature on all 3 devices. The only one water-resistant thermometer on Amazon, with 8 sec fastest speed results. Amazing product! Read more

This thermometer gives reliable temperature readings and is easy to use. The only small downside is that you need to be still for a moment to get an accurate reading, but overall it performs really well. Good value for the price! Read more

A few nits: 1. there's a "turned-on" beep but it's almost inaudible; 2. there's supposed to be a beep when the temp is ready and shown but it IS inaudible; 3. changing the battery is a pain because it's difficult to pry open the battery cover (gap is too small for easy prying, and the plastic material is soft and gets gouged); 4. repeat readings consistently give small variations (but usually within the +/- 0.2F margin of error).

How did I ever live without this. It does all that it says it does. I love the colors that change depending on the temperature reading, and the large numbers. It IS fast! I haven't taken the time to compare or check accuracy against other thermometers - but assume that Vicks knows what they are doing, and that it will be well within acceptable tollerance for accuracy. That it's so fast means you get a QUICK read - when children or fussy or feeling badly. That is a GOOD thing. I love it - and I'm so glad we've made so much progress on this front. The only thing I don't know yet, is how long the battery will last. One note - the battery compartment is VERY VERY tight. Not a bad idea to put a little vaseline on the cap when you take it off, to make it easier to spin off next time. Other than that - no concerns at all. Thanks VICKS! Read more

Great thermometer. Detects temp. Fast!!! I keep a spare. Big numbers. Initially light up: green(normal), yellow (elevated temp.), red (fever) so numbers not as critical. Read more

The best brand of thermometer I’ve ever used! I just started work as a vet assistant and noticed all the exam rooms have this model. I bought this one to keep on me in case my vets need one in a crunch. It reads fast, the color coding is super helpful and the design is nice and sleek. Read more

This thermometer actually works! I'm so tired of getting thermometers that don't work! I wish it came with a cover, though, because I'd like to store it in my nightstand next to my bed. Read more
