Better than comparably priced drugstore generics
This thermometer is similar to ones of similar price that you can find in the US at retail drug stores. It has two areas of superiority to the two drug-store models I've purchased in recent years: (1) quicker response, 15-18 seconds versus closer to 60 seconds; (2) louder and lower-pitched beep. Item #2 is a major consideration for people with hearing loss. I would give it five stars if the beep were even lower and louder, but it's definitely better than the useless (to me) drug store models I have whose beeps are too high-frequency even for hearing aids to transmit.
Rating: 4 stars
