Beurer BM85 Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor with Patented Resting Indicator for Accuracy, App Connection with Certified Data Protection, Lithium-ion Battery Powered

Recently brought this version with the larger cuff size. Comes with a Lithium battery, so fully charged in 4 hours. Download the beurer health app and then chose the BM85 as my device and created a login and agree to a few terms and agreement that Beurer state. That is it simple.I then started to take readings with the Beurer, it is pretty much spot on to my other two BP monitors, so I know it is reliable, if anything it is smarter as it recognises the cuff adjustment and controls the pump selectively. The Beurer health App, is brilliant and gives various readings and you also have access to the desktop version as the data is saved on their server, which is great as I have access to the data anywhere.Really great quality item, and when paired with the app, it is an essential item for anyone with HT. The best part is that it is rechargeable and it is bluetooth, so the data is sent with every reading and I can take triple measurements, which is what the physicians really require. It graphs your systolic/Diastolic and heart beat rate. It also takes an average and MAP which is better than just the systolic pressure.Better than other similar products, and really useful to measure your progress, whether your on medication or changing your lifestyle.For me lifestyle choice was the key, daily exercise for 2 hours a day and drastically reduce salt, so no more large Kettle crisp packets. But, it works and you have to stick with it religiously.Great BP monitor and a wealth of data at your finger tips. By the way you can export the data to CSV file or PDF. CSV is a great way to put it on excel and graph the various data values. Highly Recommended.

It may take a few readings sometime to get an accurate one but that could be down to the placement of the sleeve. Overall very happy with the product.

Good

Have had this for a week. Have only used to record blood pressure and not used any of the apps yet so can't comment on that side of it at present. However i took my blood pressure after a walk and the resting indicator was green so not too sure about that feature, ( it says you should sit for 5mins before taking a reading so in theory it should have gone red ! ). On one of the readings the irregular heart beat alarm was flashing as well. If this machine does everything that it is supposed to then it is quite a technical bit of kit and will take some time and a thorough read of the instructions to utilise all of its features. My reason for the three stars are because it seems pretty accurate on taking a basic blood pressure and pulse rate but the alarms seem a bit random so far. ( this could be down to user error as I am still getting used to it though ).

The device itself works fine but the accompanying software for tracking your measurements is rubbish. It’s got a great feature to average three measurements but the measurements, though successfully transferred from the device, don’t reliably Register with the average measurement feature. No indication what’s wrong so it just fails. Highly frustrating and does actual harm to your blood pressure.

The brachial cuff is too large so the readings are wrong. The package was pre-opened and filthy. Very disgusting.

If you intend to purchase this product in view to get the data sent to your phone (beurer application) look elsewhere. I suggest 1byone Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor. The feature to have data send to the application doesn't work. The application review is riddled with complaints.the product itself is actually good enough for the purpose. Charge via USB is a nice feature to save batteries.

Very unhappy with this product. I have to charge it everyday and eventhough I cannot do 1 measure. Wish I could give it back and have another one with the pump and normal batteries.
