Vicks SpeedRead V912US Digital Thermometer, 1 Count (Pack of 1)

Item is easy to read and use, but unable to switch from F to C.

Works and came intact

Ive had bad experiences with digital thermometer over the years. Basically they were inaccurate, would malfunction after a few uses or the batteries would die right before I needed to use it. Im grateful that I still had an old school glass mercury thermometer during those times. Its accurate, no batteries needed but yes its a potential hazard to oneself and the environment if it breaks. However, think of all of the pollution from button batteries with production to disposal, and accidental ingestion by children! Anyway Im really glad I ordered this one. Its accurate compared to the glass thermometer reading, very quick and easy to read. I wont be using the plastic covers on it but will instead save them for my old thermometer in case I need to use it. I also planned ahead and ordered some cheap thermometer batteries on Amazon to have on hand in case this one dies right when I need it. Update: I did more comparison testing with my mercury thermometer, and to get the most accurate reading with the Vicks thermometer make sure that its far back underneath your tongue; otherwise you will NOT get an accurate reading.

I had written a previous review that the thermometer stopped working for my mom with Covid, but it was user error on her part. Works great.

I prefer this brand because its fast.

Really only takes 8 seconds to display a temp! Also love the large display while still being small and portable overall. Very accurate to me.

Super easy to read display ,works very quickly, gives a loud beep when reading is complete, and seems accurate.. Took the place of my old thermometer which was none of these things!

This thermometer works quickly and gives an accurate reading. Color lights up to show no fever, low fever, or high fever.

i used this for work and working in emergency vet med this is the thermometer you want!

I bought this for my little nephew and it is reliable and good material.
