    Read the small print

    This is a well-made thermometer at a reasonable price (though not always easy to shake down after use). If you need it for low body temperature (as in hypothyroid conditions) it's not much help as it only goes down to 35.5C. It does say this in the description but I missed it, so read the small print if this is what you need it for.

  • Most critical review

    Not made by Geratherm, but by Jiangsu Yuyue,China

    The thermometer is advertised as "Geratherm" but it is made by "Jiangsu Yuyue Medical Instruments" China. One can see how true Geratherm product looks like by googling "Geratherm classic" And it is different. This does not necessarily mean that the Chinese thermometer is bad so not 1 but 2 stars, but, in essence, this is fraud.

  • Reliable but a bit awkward.

    The galinstan alloy, liquid at room temperatures, is a good alternative to mercury. The readings, compared to a traditional mercury-in-glass clinical thermometer, seem accurate. However, putting both Celsius and Fahrenheit scales inside the glass makes it awkwardly bulky to keep under the tongue for the necessary 4 minutes. It would be better to have two models, having the two different scales used in different places, that would be almost as slim as the traditional clinical thermometers.

  • handy size

    Good size and easy to hold. Better than those digital as no battery needed (always seem to find when we're ill it's gone flat). This "old-tech" is still the most reliable

  • Great product and easy to use

    Excellent since it measures Fahrenheit as well as the other one. Easy to use and gives a good clear reading too, although the wait time for a reading is somewhat longer than a mercury thermometer (but we are not allowed to have those anymore). The 'easy flip' reset tool means you can reset it in a few quick flicks. Would recommend to anyone who doesn't want to have keep replacing batteries every few months.

  • Easy to use and accurate

    I bought this for my sister who needed one. I had had one for many years in medical practice. It is easy to read and to hold when it is shaken down. The price is a bit high but this eBay one was good comparing it. You never have to worry about the battery running down!

  • Great features.

    Excellent product. Easy to read and it has both centigrade and farenheit readings. Comes in a plastic protective case. And NO batteries required. So always ready for use

  • Excellent and SAFE replacement for the traditional thermometer

    This is excellent and (mostly because I bought it) SAFE replacement for traditional mercury-containing thermometer. I compared it`s indicated value with my previous Hg-based thermometer, this shows a bit (~0.1C) higher temperature which is okay for me. And it does not require batteries :)

  • very good thermometer,

    The thermomete is rquite "fat" so it doesn't slip from your hands. works well (i tested it with other thermometers. The numbers could be a big bigger.

  • Review

    It would be advisable to advise customers that the Iridium based thermometers are very hard to shake down. I very nearly discarded the instrument when the column got stuck near top of scale. Had i not sussed the internet and discovered that the remedy (or one of them) was to enclose it in a gents sock and give it a vigourous twirling (to develop the necessary centrifugal force) it would have been declared faulty. I advise you to check this out yourself.
