I bought this not too long ago and can say I am very pleased. Just an FYI your body temperature can change throughout the day depending on your routines. This is real easy to use and i've ben using it to check on my temperatures for the Covid virus. Temps can fluctuate a few degrees throughout the day again depending on your activity or non activity. I highly recommend this since the old mercury thermometers your mom used to use are no longer available :(

I ordered two from different vendors, and returned one immediately when I had repeated highs and lows with repeated testing . The second one which is this request for data was about seemed more consistent although I check variants with a mercury thermometer. In summary I would not accept the Vicks thermometer reading wiyhout confirmation of a mercury thermometer, perhaps a screener but not diagnostic of fever.

I bought one of these and should have googled it first. Yes in 2 seconds you get a read but it changes each time you use it. I tried 5 times and as it warms up the temp seems to go up. So if you clean it under cold water or your room temp varies you get different reads. Mine was 97.3 , 97.6, 98.2, 98.8 then 99. I have an older model that sits in mouth till temp levels out. maybe 20 seconds ? Much better. Do not trust this one

I bought this thermometer because it had high ratings for reliability. It was definitely fast. In 2 seconds it gave me a temperature, but much higher then the correct one. I tried it multiple times and different days in close succession and it gave me different readings. I compared it with my old, reliable but slow thermometer and it was more than a degree off. During these times it’s critical to know if I have a fever. This is not the thermometer to buy.
