Customer Reviews of Omron HEM-432C Manual Inflation Blood Pressure Monitor
Customer Review: I like it
Summary: 5 Stars
I like it.. cheap - takes my blood pressure measurement.
It's manual, you have to use the hand pump to inflate it, then wait for it to deflate and listen for your BP.
It takes 4 AAA batteries, nice and small, it took my BP measurements consistentaly. I'm very happy with it.
(generally about those machines, you want it to be quiet in the room.. if the tv is running or there's a kid screaming, you'll get wrong readings, there's a microphone in there that "listens" for your heart pulse)
Customer Review: Great Value
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought one of these off ebay. I was concerned that it did not come with an AC adapter and is powered by batteries. My fears have been quashed. The batteries last a long time. I don't think the extra cost for an adapter is worthwhile. For ease of use, accuracy and cost, the HEM 432C can't be beat. I would only recommend an "automatic" unit over this manual unit for those who for some reason can't squeeze an inflation bulb; or for a few added features. This is a great basic unit.Customer Review: Cheap machine
Summary: 2 Stars
The monitor is a cheaply built machine. All other monitors I've had male plugs on the ends of the tubes to the bulb and the arm cuff to be inserted into openings in the body of the machine. This has nothing on the ends of the tubes; they are to be pushed over two nipples on the case and held there by the power of faith. Not only do the tubes leak, causing many error readings, but they fall off when the cuff is unstrapped. Machine sells for a good price but isn't even worth that.Customer Review: Pleased with purchase
Summary: 4 Stars
The unit is easy to operate. You put the cuff on your arm, pull it tight and stick the velcro strips together. You then inflate the cuff with the bulb and then it deflates automatically and gives your pressure automatically. It also stores your reading automatically. The only thing you have to remember is that you must turn the unit on first and then put the cuff on your arm or it will give an error. I am so happy I did not waste money on one of those auto inflating units.Customer Review: B/P monitor gives no B/P reading
Summary: 2 Stars
I ordered this Manual B/P monitor because of my long familiarity with and long-time use of the mercury sphygmomanometer with its manual bulb for cuff inflation. I read the instructions carefully and followed them exactly. Although I tried many times, the machine never produced any read-out of my blood pressure. I first called Amazon, was referred to manufacturer who referred me to distributor. Result: no helpful advice and no refund at this date (long after the return).
