So far my blood pressure has been checking a lot higher than it ever has at the doctor's office, and if this turns out to be reliable I guess I should thank the manufacturer of this product. But I suspect that I need more time with it and possibly take it to the doctor's office with me to figure out the best placement of the band. from Amazon.com Initial setup for configuration of the product was easy, but it did require me to read instruction manual. I configured the product to automatically take 3 blood pressure measurements with 1 minute delay between measurements. from Amazon.com This blood pressure monitor detects morning high blood pressure, irregular heart beat, and can average blood pressure or take your pressure 3 times in a row. 2 people can maintain their pressure. It has a USB connection to download pressure to your computer so you can print it out or email it. This is a great feature. from Amazon.com The Omron hem-790it is everything you need for home bp maintenance. I can chart my blood pressure with the program that allows me to download results to my computer and email them to my cardiologists. from Amazon.com Very easy to use BP monitor. I use it almost everyday and have had no problems at all with it. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for this type of product. from Amazon.com They (Omron)claim that this is a large "comfit" cuff good for arms up to 17 inches, but it is not. Mine is 16.7 inches, and it consistently reads 30 lbs high, or gives an error message. from Amazon.com I have used this machine for almost a month now and it works great. I was a little worried at first I kept getting errors in half of the readings but I think they were due to the postioning of my arm. from Amazon.com This monitor is everything anyone needs to be able to do this efficiently and without hassle. I just fit the adjustable sleeve around my left arm, press a button and voila! It reads my blood pressure and keeps it in memory. I keep this gadget connected to my computer thru a USB port. from Amazon.com Purchased the Omron HEM-790IT to replace an old blood pressure monitor. Did some online research for a monitor that could track 2 person, and included software. from Amazon.com Before I went shopping for a new blood pressure monitor, I was using a simple Lumiscope 1130 Digital Upper Arm Blood Pressure and Pulse Monitor, Auto Inflation. I had already tested the Lumiscope against several machines in the hospital where I work and knew that its readings were very accurate but I was a little nervous about its not-too-solid construction. I bought the Omron HEM-790IT because (1) I wanted a backup if the Lumiscope didn't last; (2) the reviews on the HEM-790IT were generally very good; and (3) because the Omron could also download its own records into the computer (note: downloading was not something I really needed but I thought it would be convenient: for me the main things are accuracy, ease of use, and durability; I have tested the readings of the Omron against the Lumiscope and found them both almost exactly the same but I still haven't gotten around to the downloading procedures so I can't comment on that yet). from Amazon.com
