Very accurate
Took this monitor to my doctor twice to check its accuracy against doctors and it was really close. Had bought a different previous one and it was way off. Returned that one and am happy with this one. Doctor approved this one.

Works very well. Scored very well in Consumers Reports review, especially for accuracy. Got the one that uses batteries and has a plug in power supply so we wouldn't have to replace batteries as often. The cuff that came with it fits down to a smaller arm diameter than any of the others which was important to fit properly on my wife.

Very nice, no frills monitor but I did not like the cuff
Buying a blood pressure monitor turned out to be a lot more complicated than I expected. I ended up buying three models before deciding which one was right for me. The ones I purchased were:- Omron 10 (BP786N)- Withings Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor- A&D UA-767FI initially purchased the Omron, but it had inaccurate diastolic readings, so I purchased the Withings. However although the Withings was very accurate, it had other issues, so I purchased the A&D, but it had inaccurate systolic readings and a cuff I disliked, so I returned it and decided to keep the Withings. However the Withings stopped working on the 27th day. It resumed working the next day, but I no longer trusted it, so I returned it and am using a replacement Omron 10 in its place.I tested these blood pressure monitors rigorously, being careful to use proper techniques and recording all results in a spreadsheet. I was impressed that the Withings had the most consistent and I believe accurate results. I did not have the opportunity to take it to my doctor’s office, but I tested against five other home monitors: my old Omron 3, which has been regularly validated at my doctor’s office, a LifeSource ( A&D) UA-767 at the Kaiser Permanente Education Office in San Rafael, CA, two Omron 10’s, and the A&D I returned.Compared with the Omron and Withings, this A&D BPM is basic and no-fills, but impressive. It’s also the cheapest, selling (as of February 2017) for $15 less than the Omron and $50 less than the Withings.It doesn’t pretend to have Bluetooth connectivity. It’s what I wanted originally, but after my problems with the Omron and Withings, I decided that Bluetooth for Android BPM’s is more of a hassle at present than it’s worth.Its accuracy would have been on a par with the Withings and maybe a little better if it hadn't been for a defect that caused it occasionally to report systolic readings that were at least 10 points too low. I tested it repeatedly, trying to eliminate the possibility that I was doing something incorrectly (I’ve been measuring my blood pressure every day for six years, so I have experience at it). I finally reluctantly decided to return it.Before deciding to return it, I tried contacting A&D several times about the systolic errors, but the contact form on the A&D website always crashed, giving me an SQL syntax error.Its data averaging is not as automatic as the others, but is more flexible. The Omron and Withings allow you to average three measurements. It’s totally automatic, You press the button and it does three readings. The A&D requires that you manually start each reading and to time the interval between readings yourself. However the advantage is that you can average as many readings as you want, up to 60. It averages all readings in memory, so if you want to average only the current ones, you need to delete all previous readings from memory. If you record your readings ina spreadsheet like I do, this is not a problem.One things I strongly disliked about the A&D is the cuff. The Omron and WIthings cuffs are superior. The A&D is very long andt I found more difficult to use than any of the cuffs on the two previous blood pressure monitors that I’ve owned as well as the Omron and Withings. If I ever buy the A&D, I’ll buy a medium cuff for it (approximately $20).One other thing I like about the A&D: it’s the only one of the three monitors that had all the information I needed to know contained in a single manual, which was included both in printed form with the manual and available for download.The A&D is the only one that comes with a carrying case. It seemed to be pretty decent quality.Overall the A&D impressed me. If the one I bought did not have a defect that causes random systolic reading errors, I’d have kept it and ordered a different cuff.

works well and as it should
Purchased for my parents (73 & 75) they like it a lot and say it works like their old one which was from the VA. Its been a few weeks they use it almost daily and its still going strong. Will update this review if it dies an early death.

Accurate readings
Very friendly and easy to use.

Not just a toy
It seems to be as advertised and the quality seems good. Price was reasonable. Should this opinion change after further usage, I will repost

Do your own research and buy something good
I had purchased a $25 BP monitor from Walmart a few months back. It seemed to work fine and had it "calibrated" 3 separate times by local clinics. BTW, "calibrated" is a lie - they want to check your machine against theirs and see if it is close. That is not calibration. Anyway, the $25 was verified 3 different times locally, and when the Mayo Clinic demanded I bring it in for "calibration", they were kind enough to tell me that it was garbage and I needed a new one. They strongly recommended an A&D monitor. After doing my own research, I sent the Mayo a message saying that the Omron monitors were better rated from accuracy, quality, and features at a better price. They still insisted I purchase the A&D model - so I did.After checking this A&D model against the $25 generic one over two days, it wasn't any more accurate than the $25 one I had been told was garbage. Now this doesn't mean this one is not accurate, it just means it won't pass muster at the Mayo Clinic. Take that as you will.Accuracy aside, this monitor is a nightmare to use if your blood pressure is over 180/XXX. It climbs slowly. Then, it drops incredibly slow - 1 pt every 0.5-1 second and often once it has compressed your arm to the point where you are sure it is going to burst, it wants to pump it back up and try again. I have never had a cuff this incredibly painful, and the worst part is that often, when you turn it off to try and save your arm, it won't release the pressure on the cuff! I had to pull the hose out of the side of the unit just to get it to let go of my arm several times! That is NOT ok! I tried to take my BP every 3-4 hours for 2 days with this unit and ended up with 3 usable readings because I had to abandon the rest.At $55, the features on this unit are minimal at best. It doesn't store enough measurements. It doesn't do the averaging the Omron Series 10 units do ($5 less btw), and did I mention it HURTS to use the dang thing? Overall this unit was a dismal failure. I'm sure if your BP is in the 140's on a regular basis you can make this work, but why spend $5 more to get less? I ended up returning this and buying the Omron 10 that I wanted in the first place and saved myself $5. The features are better, the unit is easier to use, and it don't try to see if it can make my arm pop or at least turn purple when I try to use it.Save your money. Buy something better. Don't buy the machine that tries to crush your arm. Pain increases BP. Kinda seems like you would want to cause as little pain as possible if BP is something you are trying to measure, no?
