When you get to be a certain age like me you like to keep track of your blood pressure readings. Sometimes when I go to the doctor my blood pressure gets a little high (from white-coat syndrome) so once my doctor recommended me to take it at home occasionally to keep tabs on it. That's why I was excited to be able to try the Ozeri BP5K Digital Blood Pressure Monitor with Voice-Guided Positioning and Hypertension Indicator recently.

This is an attractive little blood pressure monitor indeed! First it comes in a sturdy plastic case and includes an instruction manual which you can easily store in a drawer or cabinet and takes up very little space. It also includes two AAA batteries which are installed on the back of the unit to get you started right away.

The Ozeri BP5K Digital Blood Pressure Monitor with Voice-Guided Positioning and Hypertension Indicator displays your blood pressure reading with a large LCD screen that is easy to see. Even with my glasses off I could read the numbers clearly. It can be set to store up to 180 readings for 2 different users. You can also set the time and date for it.

The velcro strap goes on nicely around your wrist and is very comfortable. When you are taking your blood pressure there is a pleasant voice that tells you if your arm is in the correct position. My husband wanted his blood pressure taken right away when I took it out of the box to check it out so I let him use it first. He sat in a chair and I pressed the middle start/stop button to start the unit. The voice told him that his wrist was a little low so he raised it and then the voice told him that his wrist position was ideal. This means that your wrist is level with your heart and the device will begin and start to inflate.


After the reading is shown the unit automatically deflates and that's it. So easy that even I can do it! The unit will even automatically turn off after two minutes if you do not turn it off with the start/start button. My husband's reading was a little higher than he usually has at the doctor's office, so he is going to make sure to keep track of it from now on and compare with his next doctor's appointment.
