“We were in the market for a new thermometer for our 2.5 yo and a soon to be newborn. Our old one gave inconsistent readings consistently. I purchased the kinsa quick read after looking at all of the thermometers in the aisle. The kinsa quick first caught my eye because of the sleek design I ultimately decided to purchase because it was a great price and I liked that it could be used so many different ways (oral, underarm, rectal). After using it we have found that it is consistent, easy to read, and can be used with or without the app which is nice. The app is an added bonus, everyone can be setup with an I'dividual profile which stores what the temperature was and when it was taken were along with symptoms. We love this thermometer so much I now include it in baby gifts. Would recommend and will buy again.”
“I was gifted this product at my baby shower by a friend who is a nurse. My son is 15 months old now and I cannot even begin to count the number of times it has come in handy! This thermometer is quick and so easy to use and super accurate. The teachers at my son?s school even use it to check him if they think he is feeling off because they trust it more than the one in the nurse?s office. I use it with the app which allows you to select other symptoms for possible diagnoses. The app also has a bubble popping game while the thermometer is taking the reading, which keeps my son entertained and distracted from having a thermometer touching him. I plan to gift this to every new mom I know!”
“I am extremely disappointed with this thermometer. We used it when my daughter was 2.5mo and it'showed several times she had a temperature high enough for her to need to go to the hospital because she was so young. We went and she had to get a spinal tap, as well as all kI'ds of other tests, even though her temperature was normal at the hospital. We got home and the thermometer still showed her fever was too high. Kinsa sent us a new thermometer free of charge, and it'still showed her temperature too high. Although it is fancy and has neat features, do NOT purchase this thermometer. Get one that is trustworthy.”
“I was asked by Stellar Reviews to write a review of the Kinsa Quick Care Thermometer I bought a couple years back... I'did NOT receive compensation. These are all my own opinions.
Q.What did you think about the reliability and accuracy of this thermometer? A. I wasn't very impressed with it. It wouldn't consistently connect with my phone like it was supposed to.
Q.Were you able to quickly and easily take your chI'd's temperature? A. Oh heavens no. This is the stick kI'd that goes in the mouth, under the armpit or in the bottom. Since I have the model that plugs directly into the headphone jack of your cellphone, the toddler wanted no part in sitting for it to take the temp.
Q.Did you use the thermometer with the app? A. I'did. It was difficult to get it to get and stay connected.
Q.How easy was it to use and navigate the app? A. I'don't remember the app being a problem as much as the device cooperating.
Q.What was your favorite feature of the app? A. Had I gotten it to work as it'should've, I would've loved the feature where you could add profiles and it would save a temperature log for that person.”
“Overall, the Kinsa Quick Care Thermometer is great. With three kids, the app and Bluetooth connection are so helpful in keeping track of all of my kids temperatures and the tips and advice are helpful. The thermometer reads quickly and the bubble popping feature is helpful in keeping the kids calm. My favorite feature of the app is that you can assign temperature reads to each kid and can'track their temps I'dividually. I am giving it a lower score because ours unfortunately stopped connecting and would reboot every time we trI'd to use it after about 6 months. Great thermometer, just wish it would have lasted longer.”
“Let?s start with the short: we LOVE our Kinsa thermometer.
Okay, now for the long: our ten month old is a wiggle monster, and has no patience for getting her temp taken. Our Kinsa is quite possibly the quickest thermometer that we?ve ever used, and really accurately gives us a temp right away. I love that her temperature is automatically recorded in the app rather than having to write it down on scrap paper when we?re dealing with a sick baby. We typically just use the underarm feature, but I love that there are a few options for taking temps. This is my favorite add-on gift for baby showers, and we?ll continue to be Kinsa fans for life!”
“Kinsa Quick Care is the perfect kids thermometer. I have trI'd out multiple thermometers and I can say this is my favorite. I love how easy it is to use and that it uploads the temp readings directly to my phone so I can easily reference it as needed. The app functionality works great to track multiple chI'dren as well as medications, symptoms and diagnosis so you can look back on it in the future. I'definitely recommend it to any parent who is looking for a great thermometer and likes to easily access medical history.”
“This thermometer is a wonderful thing to have as a mom of three. I love being able to create separate profiles for each of my kids in the app and keep track of temperature and symptoms for each one. The thermometer easily connects to the app once you turn it on and automatically loads the temperature in. I'd love if the app had an option to add in my own notes as well because sometimes the symptoms my kids are having don't fall under any of the listed categories. However, it's still very convenient to able to look back through the app and see when fevers and symptoms started. I've compared temperature readings with other thermometers and this one seems accurate and reliable. I have recommended this thermometer to all my mom friends!”
