Welch AllynProbp 2400 Digital Blood Pressure Device

Easy to use. Accurate

Screen cracked after having it only a month.

This blood pressure meter works great. It gives far more consistent measurements of blood pressure than the Omron meter I had used before. The Welch-Allyn meter comes with a calibration sheet, that shows how the results of the meter compares with an exact, standard meter. Although cost is an issue (nearly $500), this meter gives reliable readings. If one is going to set medications based on blood pressure readings, one needs to have accurate readings. I'd say that the scatter in readings that one gets with an occasional trip to the doctor's office, is an inadequate way to determine whether medications are called for to control blood pressure.

I bought this from a medical supply company but wanted to say that the Welch Allyn 2400 is worth every dollar I spent. It is calibrated, and I am confident in the results (and so is my doctor). This is a little more difficult to use than drug store sphygmomanometers since it lacks a d-ring, but I figured out how to use it. Disclaimer: I am an electrical engineer and one time nursing student.If you get this for your own use, it takes some learning - but it is worth the extra effort.

I have used it for a year and it shows elevated BP readings most of the time. I have requested a replacement and the replacement came back with the same issue.

The charger connector to the machine was missing! Do not buy. $429.00 is too much money to take chances with.

Worst bp machine. Bought two for my clinic with all the accessories. Ran out of battery and won’t charge. Followed all the instructions and still won’t charge. After the last try, charging point started smelling funny only for me to see smoke rising. All that money and accessories bought wasted
