Easy-to-use, simple blood pressure monitor
I ordered the Blood Pressure Monitor by Antrolife to help keep tabs on my blood pressure at home.  It is a small, lightweight device that comes with a bag for easy storage.<br /><br />When you first turn on the device, it will walk you through an initial setup of inputting the date and time and then selecting if you’d like the device to speak to you or run silently, as well as the measurement units of kPa or mmHg.<br /><br />The arm cuff was a bit difficult to set to the right size on my own arm at first. However, after a few days of use, I got the hang of it, and it became much easier.<br /><br />After you’ve set it all up, taking a blood pressure reading is as easy as putting on the cuff and pressing start. Around a minute later, you’ll see your blood pressure rate in large, easy-to-read numbers on the device’s screen.<br /><br />The readings have been in line with the readings I get at my doctor’s office, and I am happy with the device overall.<br /><br />My only complaint is that when setting the date, there is no indication of what part of the date you are setting on the device or in the manual (DD/MM/YYYY or YYYY/MM/DD) as you set two numbers in groups of two on each screen. And on the time setting, I guessed it wanted time in a 24-hour format, but there wasn’t any mention of which it wanted in the manual (12-hour or 24-hour).  That said, I don’t know that it really matters as there isn’t any date displayed on the screen during the reading or in the recorded memory function that I can find.
