 - No issues so far....I've been using this as an adult theremometer before my daughter is born. The caliber has given me no issues, it took less than 5 minutes to set up, the voice sounds are very easy to turn off, and the LED screen and clear. Results are up within seconds. Rating:  - Poorly calibrated, annoying "talk" feature.In my experience ear thermometers generally read a little high, but this one was ridiculous: it repeatedly spat out temperatures in the 105 degree range, and we tested it against other thermometers that were giving us normal temperatures in the 98-99 degree range. That's some bad calibration, and there is no way to reset it. Also, the "talk" feature is really annoying. The voice has an odd New York accent, which is fine but it scared the heck out of my nine-month-old daughter. You can turn the "talk" function off, but it resets itself for each use and defaults to being on. That's the last thing you want when you go to take a baby's temperature in the middle of the night. We may have received a defective model, but we are returning it and replacing it with the Mabis Healthcare Instant Ear Thermometer, which doesn't have the forehead option or the talk feature, but works just fine. Rating:  - MOBI Ear/ Forhead Digital ThermometerMy 2 yr old daughter would freak out if she saw me coming with the traditional thermometer. She would scream if we tried to take her temperature. We went everywhere trying to purchase a forehead/ ear thermometer, but could not find one that had decent reviews. My husband found this one on-line and we ordered it because of the good reviews it had and the great price. We have only used it about 6 times over the course of a month, but it has changed everything. My daughter now runs to me when I suggest we take her temperature. She even says "let me do it." It works great.
