So disappointed, not accurate
So disappointment! As a pediatrician and mom I had high hopes for this thermometer based off the brand I usually love. Unfortunately this thermometer is not accurate at all. My baby is burning up with obvious fever and it is reading 97 and 98 repeatedly. I used another digital rectal thermometer and it is 101.1 consistently. I can’t trust this thermometer at all. I don’t know if I just got a faulty one but it was a huge waste of money.

Battery issues
I bought this for my first bay and every single time I have needed it, without fail, the battery is low or dead. I have replaced the battery about 5 times over the last 2 years and am fed up. I must have got a lemon.

BUY THIS! THANK ME LATER!
I couldn’t possible have enough good things to say about this thermometer. It is an absolute blessing! I know just how far to insert it, and it gets an accurate reading very quickly. This is the only thermometer that is reliable and I use it 100% of the time.

Case doesn’t click closed. No point in having case
I’d like for the case to snap closed. The point of the case is for ease of storage and keeping it sanity. The case just falls off. It’s one more piece of plastic I have to keep in order. I already have a whole baby to keep in order. Why this?? Otherwise, it’s easy to use and accurate.

BUYER BEWARE
Received as a gift. Recently used this thermometer for my 16 month old. I noticed she was warm and per the Frida rectal thermometer she had a temp of 101.5. An hour or so later I rechecked due to her demeanor and the thermometer read 102.3 and that is when things went south. A whole febrile seizure and 911 call later I discovered that the thermometer was off by 2 degrees. When EMS arrived the Frida was reading 102.5 and the EMS thermometer was 104.5. I purchased another thermometer and sure enough the Frida is a whole 2 degrees cooler than the other thermometer. Our horrible experience could have very well been avoided had the Frida thermometer been more accurate. Never again will I recommend this product.

Easy to use but inconsistent
This was given as a gift I requested from my baby registry thinking this was best brand out there. Rectal temp in infants is supposed to be the most accurate. I never get the same reading twice in a row when I use this and I have now needed to use this on multiple occasions for my son’s fevers. I’m pretty disappointed that this is not something I can rely on for an accurate temperature.

Thermometer worked just fine, just the case broke after several years of using, it was replaced with no additional fee and new thermometer came with it. thermometer is very fast and easy to use
