Bought this years ago and has worked flawlessly since. Batteries are just common watch batteries which you can get anywhere and last 2-3 years. My only complaint is the page of instructions that are easily lost and trying to find a link to get another copy. Shouldn't Vicks have a support area??

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Good concept, however requires CR1225 Batteries which are very difficult to get. So regardless of how good the product it, is it too much of a hassle to find batteries.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

I'm contagious for 24 hours after my fever breaks and I can't tell when that is without buying a new thermometer!! I'm not even sure how effective it is given that my dr's thermometer always showed a different temp.

Used the thermometer one time and it malfunctioned. I have tried replacing batteries and still a no go. Now I am out the cost of the worthless thermometer and the cost of new battery. Don't waste your money on this product.

I've searched every store and online seller I can think of. It is not possible to purchase replacement batteries for this thermometer. So, if you want an expensive disposable thermometer, this is the product for you.

I purchased one and it didn't work at all so I returned it. I decided to try a second one and it was great for a short period of time and now the battery is dead. The price is great but if you have to keep replacing batteries every couple weeks it's not worth it.

I have been searching for a thermometer to use for our 6 month old and was excited when I found this. However, it stopped working after a few uses. We used it a few times and worked great, now, only a few weeks later it doesn't work at all, it just shows a V looking symbol on the side and doesn't light up. Very dissapointed.

I bought this thermometer when my daughter was sick and it was great, I loved it, First, the numbers started disappearing, and now there's only a little V when you turn it on. Worked wonderfully when new. 2 weeks later, not at all. Disappointed.
