The best thing I liked about this item was the ease of use and the time it takes to read the temperature. It may not be 100% accurate like any non-clinical scales, but we can set a reference easily, to find out the offset.:)
This is very handy when dealing with cranky kids (and adults too) :).

I really wanted this to work well, as the super quick readings make it convenient to check the temperature on a squirming infant. Neither my wife or I could get consistent readings at all though. We both tried several times on each other (and in desperation on ourselves).
Not only were the readings inaccurate (I do not have a 103 degree fever), but they also varied dramatically, as much as 4 degrees in either direction.

Got this last week. Tested it out on my family and also for myself only compared with the oral thermometer we have been using. I don't mind the variability, which seems to be roughly plus/minus 0.5 degree F. What I don't like is that it seems to average about 1.5 degrees F too high. Specifically, the oral has me at 98.7 but the first 5 repeats with Safety 1st ranged from 99.9 to 101. My wife's readings also came in over 100. Maybe we just got a bad one.
