Summary
Product Title: Omron Blood Pressure Monitor Automatic With Comfit Cuff Hem-780
Manufacturer: Omron
Power Score: 4.3 | 18 Reviews
Strengths: Not too expensive, easy to operate and readings are fairly accurate.
Weakness: Readings are a bit off compared to readings at doctor's office.
Though readings are a bit off - they are consistently off by about 8-10 so I've just taken 8 off of each reading. Bought it after reading several good reviews about this product and so far I have had no regrets buying it
Strengths: Works as advertised. Simple to use.
Weakness: Little bit snug in its fit (but I'm a 200 lb. working man).
The good thing about this product is that it pretty much takes your blood pressure in a no-nonsense kind of way. But you have to be careful with the Omron line of BP machines. When I originally went to a store to buy one I read the boxes and discovered that most of them run on batteries and don’t include a plug for the wall. This model is the one that does, so for me it’s the only way to go....
Strengths: Big display, easy to read, quiet, and comfortable.
Weakness: None so far.
Very easy to use and very accurate also it works quickly. I brought it to a few of my Dr visits to compare the pressure readings and it was pretty much right on. My Doctor was impressed with it as well. Doesn't take up a lot of space and can be used anywhere at anytime. It isn't very loud either. Many times I'll use it while my wife is sleeping and she never flinches.
Strengths: Easy to operate with great accuracy.
Weakness: None
I had a doubt about my blood pressure readings doctor measured. Every time I went to the doctor's office for check up, I got nervous and my blood pressure measure up to 159/90. Doctor suggested I should be on medication to control the BP. I wasn't ready to be dependent on medication and decided to purchase BP monitor device to measure at home. I read the review on health web site and purchased...
Strengths: Easy to operate with a cuff that fits all, has a large display with 90 memory recall - and is very accurate.
Weakness: None
This is the third blood pressure monitor that I purchased, and the only one that I kept. The first two monitors were both wrist types, one had a cuff that wouldn't work on my arm (I am a big man), and I didn't want to pay extra for a larger cuff so my wife and I could both use it, and then after buying another with a cuff that would work for both of us, the readings were just not accurate. After...
Strengths: Incredibly easy to use. Read out is large. The memory function is a real plus
Weakness: None
The Omron HEM780 is a new state of the art automated blood pressure device. It is easy to use. It comes with both batteries and an AC adapter so that it can be used whenever and whereever you wish even if you are not near an electrical outlet. My physician recommended it to me and he was right on the money. I would recommend it to anyone.
Strengths: Speed
Weakness: cuff, measurement reliability
I had major problems getting this monitor to work properly. The cuff seemed to go on easily, but was hard to get in the correct position on the left arm. I felt I needed an extra hand to get it right. Very frustrating. On the right arm is rarely worked to conclusion and often returned an error message. Error messages are coded, so despite the large display, you have to go to manual to find out...
Strengths: Ease of Use: the arm band is really easy to put on, measures quickly, easy to read, looks pretty nice, works both on battery and AC - already comes with battery adapter and 4 AA cells
Weakness: Doesn't seem to be that accurate. The packing is clumsy. Once you unpack it, it's hard to put it back in the case with all the stuff that comes with it.
I bought this BP monitorafter a lot of research. I really wanted a quality BP monitor which could give "accurate" readings. After a few days use, I was not quite convinced of the accuracy. The readings were consistently different from the ones I got from doctors office (though by 5-7 points .. which by the way means a lot to me). So I decided to compare HEM780 with itself. Got another one from a...
Strengths: Simple to use and comes with adaptor and stores more than 60 readings.
Weakness: None
I was using since 2 months and recorded various times of the day. My Doctor saw this today and appreciated its functionality. This really helped me to know what timings my systolic pressure is mounting and taking proper measures.

Works, but....
Strengths: Nice features, convenient (when it works), easy to setup, large easy to read display
Weakness: Errors
Worked fine first 3-4 weeks, however past week or so I've been getting a lot of "Error" readings. It starts over and often does the same thing. Sometimes I just give up trying. I will probably send it Omron for repair/replacement.
