Welch Allyn Home 1500 Series Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor with Easy Bluetooth Smartphone Connectivity RPM-BP100

great! This is the same BP machine used in my clinic, works great, is professional grade and accurate. Well worth the price if you need to monitor your BP daily. It's easy to use, and saves your readings to the app on bluetooth device.

My doctor highly recommended it and he was right. Small size, large bold letters, easy to use, accurate and durable. I got mine since 2021 and it still running.

Purchased the Welch Allyn Home 1700 Series Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor with Easy Bluetooth Smartphone Connectivity, Item model number: H-BP100SBP, from the Welch Allyn Home store on Amazon. I received it today. I put the batteries in, and connected the standard cuff that was included with it. I heard the click when I attached the cuff to the monitor. The monitor turned on fine. I can hear the motor attempting to inflate the cuff. However, the cuff does not inflate. At all. I had also purchased the XL and X-small cuff from WA Home, so I attached both of those cuffs as well and attempted to inflate them using the monitor. Neither of them were inflated by this monitor either. Regardless of the cuff used, the monitor attempts to inflate, then gives the E-01 message, every time. I've tried the cuffs on both the right and left arms, on both myself, and my husband. The E01- (cuff is not secure, readjust the cuff, relax for a moment, then measure again) message is the only result I can obtain. I take numerous blood pressures daily in a clinical setting as part of the function of my employment. I'm quite familiar with the proper way to take a blood pressure reading. This is not user error. Welch Allyn has been used in a clinical setting for... ages. It's a trusted brand. My concern is... what is going on with their QA? I've contacted their Tech Support, and will update this regarding the response of WA's support staff. **** Update **** I called their tech support line at 1-800-856-4605. Dude was super nice, and no questions asked is shipping a replacement unit out. I've been emailed a fedex label to ship the defective unit back at no cost to me. This took this review from 1 star, up to 3 stars. I will update this review again once I receive the replacement unit. **** Update 8/18/2020 **** Received the replacement unit just now. Put the batteries in, powered it up. It's in even worse shape than the original unit shipped to me. That one at least made noises like it was trying to inflate the cuff, and the monitor itself stayed powered on. The new unit? It powers up, shows a 0, then immediately powers off. I changed the batteries out. Changed the cuff out. Bottom line, this was a waste of 2 weeks of my time, and over a hundred bucks, especially since I ordered the x-small and x-large welch allyn cuffs to go with it. I only purchased this instead of omron because I figured Welch Allyn has been in the business so long, they'd HAVE to have it together, right? Clearly. Not. I'll go order an Omron right now, while I call tech support to get yet another return sticker. **** Update to my update **** K, I'll contact Amazon. WA support only handles warranty/replacement, they do not do refunds. Refunds have to go thru Amazon. Now you know.

Pretty good and especially love the app But hard to get tightened on arm (never thought I would get to a point where the cuff almost felt too big) and if you don’t have it just right, if any folds on the edges for example, it errors out. I am hoping that as it loosens up a bit and I get more used to it that it won’t E 01 on me all the time! But I Love the size and brightness of the display and it seems fairly accurate as opposed to my old wrist monitor

Solid device with a clear screen and simple setup. Feels reliable and well made. I like having this at home for regular checks.

I bought this unit because I used to be a truck driver and had to impress the DOT with my low blood pressure every two years. I got this unit so I could monitor my BP at home and have an idea of how things were going leading up to my DOT physicals. Fast forward four years, I'm no longer driving trucks, and I'm not as young as I used to be. My blood pressure is creeping up, so on doctor's advice, I want to monitor it daily and use the app to keep a record in my phone of my readings. Well, I went to update the Welch Allyn app in my Android phone today and got a "Could not update" error. So I uninstalled the app. When I went to reinstall, I find it no longer available on the Google Play Store. It seems that Welch Allyn has inexplicably decided to not support the app for Android any longer, and from reading reviews, it seems this problem began about three years ago. That's ridiculous and unacceptable. The BP monitor itself has always worked perfectly and still does. It's disappointing that the manufacturer would suddenly flip the bird to all the buyers of this model and stop supporting the app. I guess if I want to keep using this BP monitor I will have to record the results on pencil and paper, or a notes app in my phone. That makes it not nearly so easy to send the results to my doctor. Something like this is pretty ridiculous in this day and age. I like this BP monitor for its small size and ease of use, but I'm going to shop around and see what else is available, with an app that actually works. Very surprising to me that a trusted, known brand like Welch Allyn would do something like this. Disappointed to say the least.

No app support
