How to tell the omron reading is lower unless you have 2 devices to compare side by side?

yes i compare to reading at clinic. two clinics one using rossmax the other using omron also. the reading in clinic is roughly same but my device is showing 20mmhg lower.

I could get readings of like 100/60 for my BP from the Omron at home before I sleep. Which I find too low. Same goes for my wife. Hers can be 95/55. Surely that's too low to be accurate?

yes omron always give lower reading by ~20mmhg. i bought two omron one is hem7120 the other is hem7156. both are not accurate. i strongly suggest u bring and check together in clinic to be safe.

Yes I tested at a pharmacy too. My omron was consistently lower, and lower by a significant margin as you indicated.

I returned my omron and got a rossmax.

Tbf, the omron build quality is a lot better than rossmax. The plastic used is of higher quality and there are no squeaky sounding loose buttons which the rossmax has. But rossmax appears to produce readings more consistent with my expectations.

This is the model I have been serving me well for more than 6yrs i think

i have brought it couple of times to clinic for verification, Dr confirmed reading is good.

So far, the build quality is good..if Im not mistaken, I chose this brand because it had 5yrs warranty then

But I guess, newer brand/models has connectivity with the phone, that would be cool to have better monitoring and recordings

Make sure the blood pressure machine that you are trying to buy - is registered with medical device authority (MDA).


You can search for any registered medical devices through the following link:
