Yes all the Braun ear thermometers are fantastic when it comes to taking a child’s temp. It is unrealistic to try to take an oral temperature when a child is feverish.
But the problem lies with the replacable sensor covers “Lens Filters”. They are cone shaped: 25mm deep, with a 27mm diameter. Unfortunately somewhat collapsible. Inhaled it would fit nicely into a trachea or mainstem bronchus.
So there is a real the makings that a misplaced clear cover can be found by a toddler. And unintentionally inhaled. Blocking the airway. Causing acute respiratory arrest.
There are safer products on the market. ie; Temporal scanners.

I bought this because my wife, a nurse, was tired of fussing with our 4 1/2 yr ancient and our oral thermometers, and wanted something closer to what she uses at work. Our daughter was on the verge of pneumonia, and we knew we would be tracking her temperature regularly for a couple of days, and wanted something to get it done quickly and accurately. This Braun Ear Thermometer does the trick. It’s quick, accurate, simple to handle, and well made. Don’t waste the extra $20-30 for the next model up in the Braun product line – paying for the “tip warmer” feature is pointless when the reading takes less than 3 seconds to perform. This is a real bargain, IMO.

pros – light weight and small, simple to use, uses 1 AAA battery which is simple to find and replace. design conforms to the hand.
cons – no back light on lcd screen
summary – i prefer this over the thermometer that is used on the forehead. this is nearly as accurate as persons used in the hospitals. simple to use specially for babies and battery is simple to find and replace. it would have been fantastic if they place a back light on the lcd screen, because if you are a parent like me who monitors my baby’s temperature during the night when she is sick, you don’t want to be turning on the lights just to see the reading of the thermometer.
