Have used the monitor for many years it's very accurate, this the new type which got "Which" Best Buy earlier this year.Been waiting for this to drop below £20.

Bear in mind this only comes with a 22-32cm cuff so if you're not average you'll need to drop another tenner on the larger one. The M3 come with a 22-42cm one although obviously more expensive to start with and not on offer at the moment.

That's true but I've been using bp monitors at home for 20 years from very expensive ones (£150) and now this is my sixth m2 basic. The problem with all monitors that over time they go out of calibration, so I buy cheaper ones (only Omron now) and change them every two years. The m3 is twice the price and no more accurate. The down side of a cuff going from 22cm - 42cm as you say the m3 is that if you are not on the larger size the cuff is less comfortable and harder to get positioned right. I posted this as I've waited months on camel to get it to £20 so I thought this was a real bargain.incidently, if you need a larger cuff get one exactly the right size and put it on the next monitor you get. Most Omron cuffs are compatible with each other and if you are careful they will last years.

Good point however, the Asda near us never has them in so we even went to Milton Keynes(18 miles) once from deal on here and it wasn't on there so have given up on Asda. But if you can get them good luck to to you.

Great machine, used by some doc's including my own. Seems quite accurate and the batteries last ages in this thing.

Won't buy from Amazon with the 'Prime' nonsense - this is £19.74; to get it for £14.99 you have to pay for Prime first - misleading like all the other 'Prime' deals!
I bought a Salter branded one from Asda
needs to get a more expensive one. The Salter one also seems to have a good sized cuff.

Really good. Bought one last night, received today. Very accurate (take 3 consecutive readings for an average). Easy to use. Does what it says on the tin. Recommended.
