BM81 easyLock Automatic Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor, Smart Cuff Without Cables for Fast Measurement, Data Transfer to Apple Health and co., Bluetooth, 240 Memory Sets

Let me start by saying to read the manual first before you get the product up and running. This will go a long way. With that being said, once you insert the batteries on this monitor and program the initial settings.... it's smooth sailing from there. I like the fact that it's compact, easy to use and it stores the reading history on my phone with the app. This makes it super easy to track so I have something to show my doctor on my visits. I tested this monitor while in the doctor office and it was pretty accurate compared to their machine. So I'm happy to know that when I use my monitor I'm getting accurate readings. There is a downside but not much of a big deal for me. It's battery operated which means replacement batteries. I didn't mind getting rechargeable batteries for it so when I have to change them, I swap them out for fresh ones and recharge the old ones so they be ready to be swapped out again.

This was the most intuitive and easier to use BP monitor that I have used, It's been a few years now since I was told to keep an eye on my BP by my Cardiologist. Had always used the fast inflating Velcro cuff that was attached to the tube. Every time I used it I was certain that the actual use of it helped to raise my BP. The Velcro cuff was either too loose or too tight. There were times when I had to stop the machine because it was getting frighteningly tight. Anyway, once I did some research and found this BP monitor by Beurer, I knew I had to try it. Yes, I will admit it is about twice the cost of many of the others but keeping your BP in check is definitely worth the extra cost. Took it to my next cardio appt and they checked it against their state of the art BP machines and were amazed that it was almost exactly the same reading as theirs. My old cuff and tube monitor was always 10-15 percent off. Sometimes higher, sometimes lower. So I would wholeheartedly (see what I did there) recommend this monitor to anyone concerned about their overall health. Oh yeah, it is also Bluetooth compatible so you can see all your readings stored on your phone. I don't really use this feature but it does come in handy when you go to the docs and they want to see your readings. Give this monitor a try. You will not regret it.

Bought it approximately a month ago. I have used it 20 times. It is easy to set up and the numbers/readout seemed reliable. However, now it errors out and the numbers can be wildly different between the first reading and the second. Not good when your managing your BP

easy to use, especially since I had a stroke and lost the use of 1 arm. easy to read as well. It seems to be very accurate. I used it alongside the doctors and was only off a couple of points

Would give 5 star for single user of this item - but for 2 people trying to adjust the arm band to smallest size (for my wife) and back to mid size for me is way to difficult due to stiffness of the band. If left in one size position this BP monitor is great! The BOA type dial to tighten the band is super convenient and no tubes to deal with is definitely the way to go. Seems to be accurate and very comfortable when using. Wish it was just easier to adjust band size (and mainly to the smaller setting as adjusting from half way to the largest is pretty easy) Ended up buying an Omron with standard Velcro type arm band and air tube to the monitor - much easier to adjust band size but WAY less convenient compared to the Beurer.

We had been using an Omron blood pressure monitor, but it was getting a bit older and were questioning its accuracy. This beurer BM 81 is easy enough to set up with the date and time and connect to a phone using bluetooth. It seems fairly accurate based on comparisons with the Omron unit and units available at pharmacies. The cuff will work well on both fairly large arms as well as pretty small arms. I was ready to say that I would like to be able to export the data from the app so I can pull it into Excel to make charts the way I like to see them... And there it is - export as CSV or PDF. Awesome. I highly recommend this make and model - beurer BM 81.

I bought this after I returned a different wrist BP monitor that was inaccurate and difficulty syncing with my phone. I decided to go with this upper arm monitor based on all the other positive reviews and I’m so glad I did. Firstly, this is the easiest upper BP monitor to put on, I was worried that one of these would be cumbersome to put on, but with the easy lock button, it totally made it so easy. Secondly, this is definitely more accurate than a wrist monitor and it closely matches the readings I get at my doctor’s office. Thirdly, this is so easy and quick to sync to my phone. This is a great feature because I won’t have to keep a log and remember to write down my measurements because this does it for you and syncs to its app along with apple health.

This is easy to use, but bluetooth syncing with the phone app is quite slow and it doesn't always work. After I needed to replace the batteries, I had to do a fair amount of troubleshooting to get the device up and running again (I had to track down the manual - ugh!) and syncing didn't work at all. I figured this would likely be an issue EVERY time I had to replace the batteries, so I didn't bother trying to make bluetooth syncing work again. There is alternative way to get data into the phone app by pointing the phone camera at the BP device screen, so I just do that now. It's much faster than bluetooth syncing. I have no idea how accurate the device is because I haven't tested it against a medical-grade unit.
