i think better to compare with clinics reading. ask the doctor use the old school mercury thingy measure and compare with your own reading at home. then u can know how far out  is the home reading

oh that old school manual BP machine is the best?

Oh wow. I thought it was my unit.

I'm using Omron HEM-7156 and my readings are also lower by about 20+ mmHg compared to the rossmax ones I've used in the clinic and pharmacy. I even took mine to a pharmacy to compare side by side and Omron's is consistently lower.

I sent it back to Omron. They tested it and said it's working correctly. I didn't feel comfortable using it so I opted for a refund.

So what's a good brand then? Rossmax?

Hey, yes.. I think it's Rossmax also in MV Blood bank... it's always so much higher and it's worrying...
