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

Very easy to use. Accurate and shows temperatures automatically. Great to have on hand at home. I highly recommend. M

This is my favorite thermometer. Mine finally broke and I was able to replace it finally. It was sold out for a while due to COVID. I was elated. I bought a different Vicks and it wasn’t the same. It’s very accurate, easy to read, and easy to use. Highly recommend and the price is right. Vicks also stands behind their product.

Decent deal on temperature tool

This is a quick, nice thermometer that has a big, attractive display and is easy to use. It deserves credit for being a good product all around. The biggest complaint I have about it is that it reads too quickly to get an accurate reading. I even warm the tip in my hand or under some warm tap water first to prep it. Still, I can take my temperature three times in a row and it wont come out the same ever. Itll be close though. I wanted precision and accuracy, however-- not just good enough. Well, its just good enough. Itll tell you have a fever, more or less.

I’ve only used this twice, but absolutely love it. Very easy to use and read, and even has a color change on it for even easier verification. Very fast too.

Time will tell if this keeps ticking but it works very well so far and accurately provides readings for oral and armpit temperatures. It will do anal temperatures and does come with a pack of protective covers for such use. I already have an instant read anal baby thermometer that is much smaller by Vicks and use that. This would be just as good if required to use it in that manner though. Really helpful when your squirmy sick kids need an accurate reading quickly.

This Vicks SpeedRead thermometer is excellent. In my experience, it has been 100% accurate, reliable, readable and usable in the dark. ACCURACY: Compared to a professionally calibrated digital thermometer I use for work, this unit was consistently within .2 degrees of accuracy. When compared to several other types and brands of thermometers I have around the house, the Vicks SpeedRead was within .5F freedom degrees. USABILITY: Theres only one button. It is accurate for oral vitals on children who are awake and old enough not to squirm for 8 seconds. Kids can immediately tell if they have a fever by the color-coded readout. It is a good addition for a mobile first-aid kit as it comes with a rigid case and is somewhat durable. Youd better have long fingernails or a small flathead screwdriver to unlock it and pry off the back to change the battery (see photo). Dont forget to pick up probe covers, alcohol wipes and a spare CR1632 battery. CAVEAT EMPTOR: This thermometer uses a CR1632 battery NOT an LR44 as in the description! Before you open the packaging glance at the manufacturing date. Coin batteries last between 2-4 years in storage, and if its at the tail end of that span you may want to check pricing on the battery v. the price of the thermometer and decide if its more economical to send the thermometer back or buy a new battery. The thermometer I received had been manufactured less than 6 months prior.

I had become so used to using my old thermometer that I had no idea the technology had progressed to this point, and for under $10!!!! This thing not only tells your temperature but it (1) does it in less than 10 seconds, (2) has a very large readout, and (3) has a background that changes color according to increments above 98.6. (I should mention that before this purchase I tried a different one that was a few dollars cheaper, but LUCKILY it was flawed, and I sent it back. What a karmic gift!!) I would be shocked (shocked, I say) if anyone has anything bad to say about this thermometer. Thats my story and Im sticking to it.

I don’t know why we have had so much trouble finding a normal thermometer, this is easy to use, fast results and in Fahrenheit. We have bought some before but needed an app and an account (seriously) took that garbage back to the store and got a refund. Then another one somehow got converted to Celsius and we couldn’t figure out how to change it back, even went to the internet to look up model and find an operation manual and nothing. This does everything weed need and isn’t overly done with extra bells and whistles. I would buy this again if needed.

Works as expected
