Beurer Multifunction Infrared Thermometer, FT65

This thermometer is amazing. It is by far the most accurate one I have found, and I have been through a few terrible ones. It's also so easy to use. I really like the ability to save the temperature to memory with the date and time it was taken so I can track mine or my child's fever. This thermometer has both ear and temporal abilities making it great for everyone in my family. I would highly recommend this thermometer to everyone.

This is the third one I've tried, although the others didn't give you a choice between an ear and forehead reading. It is easy to use and to set up. The read out is easy to see. Using it in the ear I think gives a more accurate reading and the reading when you use it across the forehead is a degree or so higher than normal. The cover you need to remove to use it for an ear reading is a bit difficult to remove, I thought I was going to break it. I haven't opened the back for the battery compartment yet so I can't speak to that. I do like it and will probably use the forehead method so I don't have to remove the cover, keeping in mind it will be a degree higher. I like that it stores the last 10 readings so you can always go back and look at it. I haven't figured out if you can delete them, there's nothing in the directions about it. I don't guess it matters though since when you set it up you put the date in, so you can figure out which ones you're looking at. I do like it and I'll be using it.

This is a great addition to anyone's medical supplies. It reads accurately and gives a green or red signal so you know if you are okay or ill. It takes regular batteries so I won't have to hunt for them. It even turns itself off so I don't worry if I forget. The thermometer will read your forehead, ear, or surface temperature. I even tried it on my dog! It works great on her too!

I like this thermometer for a few reasons. First it is nice and compact, so it is easy to store and carry. The fact it is not shaped like a gun, which for me was a psychological thing, as holding something shaped like a gun to my head is "disturbing ". Next, it reads instantly, which is nice when taking the temperature of a squirming infant. Thirdly, it allows temperature to be taken both by easily swiping the temple area or in your ear. Last it can read the temperature of anything, up to 212 degrees Fahrenheit, this is great for checking the temperature of things like a baby bottle. I can trust the quality and accuracy of this, since it is made by Beurer, a trusted name in health and well-being. Because of the compact size, the display is a little small and at times hard to see the icons, but if just checking your forehead for a fever, it is no big detractor.

I actually don't have any kids but I know that this is great since it's so fast at getting the temperature, but for my use, it's because I'm getting old and it's become difficult for me to read the tiny writing on the glass thermometer which is what I've always used. The digital is the way to go since it's much easier to read. Recommend for anyone, but especially those with kids or poor eyesight.

You never know when you will get sick so a good thermometer is a handy thing to have. This thermometer is the one I like to use. It has a easy to read screen and can be used in the ear or on the forehead. It has buttons for whichever you choose and has your temperature reading in seconds. It feels comfortable in your hand and comes with directions which you should read or you might get confused the first time you use it.

Thank You Beurer for My Multifunction Infrared Thermometer, FT65 It works really great checks your Temperature in seconds I love that it has 2 functions Top button for forehead and second for Ears the light changes green for good temperatures or Red when you have a Fever or Ear ache The Thermometer takes 2 AAA batteries You will also need a skinny Phillips Screwdriver to open up the back to install batteries I would definitely recommend anyone to purchase this for their Family Thank you

You can check temperatures 3 different ways. Ear, forehead and surface. I like the forehead scanner the best but hey I could easily check the temperature of a bottle of milk or soup and such. Slight learning curve, not to difficult. Wipes off easily and comes with batteries. Good bang for the buck.

Seems to be accurate.. first few days of use you kind of question what's normal and what's not. Is it working? Last night I didn't feel great and happen to be pregnant too.. took ear and forehead temp and it showed low grade fever.. tried it multiple times and it kept steady results. I think this will come in handy with a baby as well. Not so invasive and no rectal temps.! Only thing I don't like it sensor cover is hard to take off. Directions say to remove before taking ear temperature. Would still recommend

This is a nice thermometer quality wise. It’s a bit confusing to use at first so you really need to read the directions really well to get to know how to use it. I know, we all hate reading directions. Even after that you might be confused. For instance, it says to press and hold the power button for one second for it to turn on and do a self-test and then it will beep twice. Well, this thing never beeps at all. There are other instances where it supposed to beep but maybe I’m deaf, but I've never heard it beep once. There are 3 different ways to take a reading. Surface, ear and forehead. I found the surface reading to be very random and inaccurate. I would hold it and inch and a half from a person's head and the readings would be in the 80s. I found the forehead reading the most consistent. You touch it on your temple, hold down the forehead button while running it across your forehead to the other temple and release. This gave me a very accurate reading every time and pretty much matched my oral thermometer. So that’s the way I use it. The ear reading is consistent too but it’s always a degree lower than the forehead reading. Maybe I’m not doing it right. It has green light for normal and a red light for high. You can set the time and day. It has a memory button for the last 10 readings which is nice. It automatically switches off. All in all, I found it to be a very nice quality thermometer. My biggest complaint is the directions. I think it probably works like it should but maybe I’m just too dense to understand the directions. Most people don’t have time for directions. To the company: put a video on your website on how to use your products. This would be so much better than trying to understand your arcane directions. One star off for that.
