Equipped with the most simplified control panel, a convenient display, as well as a cuff with the ability to adjust the size within 22 – 32 cm.

Omron is a Japanese company that has been producing blood pressure monitors since 1961. As of 2009, the number of blood pressure monitoring devices sold by the company exceeded 100 million. Omron M2 Basic is a practical, convenient and easy-to-use, and therefore very popular automatic blood pressure monitor priced at $40.
Great opportunities
The electronic unit with an LCD display is equipped with all the necessary functions: blood pressure, pulse and arrhythmia indication. Intellisense intelligent control technology is responsible for the accuracy and comfort of monitoring. The readings are taken twice, when pumping air and releasing it.
The device is very sensitive and reacts to any patient's worries, so a necessary condition before the procedure is complete rest. Otherwise, the tonometer may fail, which will be indicated by a sound signal and an error icon on the screen.
Maximum comfort
The device is equipped with a fan-shaped cuff of 22–32 cm. This shape allows air to be evenly distributed throughout the chamber and does not squeeze the patient’s arm too much. The grip is soft and comfortable, but the length is not enough for everyone. Large people should immediately choose a set with a universal cuff (22–42 cm), some sellers sell the device with it, or buy an additional accessory as an option.
Electronic statistics
To the right of the display you can see a graphic indicator of the upper and lower pressure levels, informing about the compliance of the readings with the WHO classifier. The last 30 readings are saved in the device's memory, which, of course, is not much for keeping statistics, but it will help to determine the trend.
Long-term work
The device can operate on alkaline AA batteries, which are included in the kit, or on an adapter, which is offered at the discretion of the seller. But if it is not in the list of accessories, do not be discouraged. The batteries are enough for 1500 measurements, and this is more than a year.
In addition to high autonomy, Omron M2 Basic is distinguished by its unprecedented durability. With careful handling and proper operation, the cuff will outlive the 6-month warranty period at least three times, and the electronic unit will work significantly longer than 5 years.
But the included case could have been more solid. It is shapeless, frankly cheap in appearance and touch and clearly deserves to gather dust in the corner. Against the background of advantages, the disappointment is, of course, small, but it is there.
To sum it up, let's say that Omron M2 Basic is not only useful, but also a profitable investment in health. And therefore, a "must have".
