Good price

Works great. I use it for work, multiple times a day.

The gauge is much easier to read. I got this for my wife who is a nurse. She really likes it. Great company!Extra Large Gauge Pro Aneroid Sphygmomanometer. <<<This is the better gauge, and adult cuff.

Item was awesome and great quality. It worked well and professionally along with being super affordable. The Reading are super accurate and has a good functional warranty. It is designed for the working nurse and is east to read blood pressure readings and the color matches my scrubs. It is so comfortable to carry around at work. Best buy for the buck. I 100$.recommend!

I’m a home health nurse so my equipment really gets a workout. This one is probably the most well made I’ve bought in a very long time. I usually end up replacing them about every 6-8 months but this one seems like it might last. It’s made of a sturdy material and the stitching is perfect. The Velcro adheres great and I don’t see it wearing out anytime soon. I especially like the oversized gauge. Getting older sucks but this helps me see it so much easier. The ONLY reason I gave this a 4 star instead of a 5 star rating was because the deflate is very touchy. If I do it slowly it seems to avoid deflation then abruptly deflates once I turn the knob past a certain point. It’s not a big issue. I just had to get use to it because it doesn’t deflate as easily as most. Now that I’m use to it I am able to deflate at the appropriate rate in order to get an accurate blood pressure on my patients. I also wish it came with, or you could purchase, a larger cuff.

See update below!Original title "Very disappointed - no D ring - too difficult to use - poor instructions"I was anxiously awaiting my MDF sphygmomanometer and my MDF stethoscope as I am starting fasting and reversing hyperinsulinemia and wanted before and after metrics. I thought that I had searched on Amazon for sphygmomanometers with a D Ring. I researched the MDF stethoscope; it appears to be excellent value. I thought that the MDF brand would be a step above. I paid more than others to get better quality. The Calibra Pro 58 sphygmomanometer has a larger dial with some nice features, and the cuff isn't cheap PVC. I thought that I had checked all of the boxes.How disappointing to find that it's basically impossible to properly put the cuff on one's self without a D-ring; the product was unusable. It's a shame as the pressure gauge is very sleek, weighs a ton, and appears to be very nice quality. Alas I could not use it on myself...Additional note, the instructions are lacking. It's simple text with no diagrams to show how the cuff is put on, which way to orient the tubes, where approx the appropriate artery is located, or how to apply the stethoscope properly.Two suggestions for the manufacture and seller:1) A warning in the description that there is no D ring and that it is no appropriate for self use.2) Redo your instructions with some diagrams to clarify its use.Update 6/18/2024 - Long term update==============================I love this sphygmomanometer after figuring out how to use it on myself. If one sets the cuff correctly, then one simply slides it onto the arm and inflates without having to adjust it each time. So now I conclude that a D ring isn't necessary. I love the large meter, and the cuff is usable for self measurements. By placing the cuff appropriately and tucking the stethoscope disk under the edge, one can easily measure one's self. Perhaps this should be in the manual, something like "Tips for Self Measurement".Changing form 3 to 5 stars.

Well made….only down fall is it’s a little heavy

Excellent
