Best Omron Blood Pressure Monitors
Omron HEM-7600T
The individual readings vary widely, but taking an average of readings over a week smooths out the variations. Show details
This is a follow up to my previous report on the Omron 7361T I purchased at a Good Price Pharmacy in December 2024. My health professionals have… Read more
independently checked its performance against that of their own machines, their manual checking and reports from a Pacemaker and a via an ECG. My health professionals assure me that since the fitting of my Pacemaker in November 2024 that I do NOT have arrhythmias. The Omron 7361T says otherwise - averaging false / absurd readings 30-40% of the time [eg. heart rate - 40bpm when the pacemaker limit is 60bpm]. The pharmacy I purchased the Omron 7361T from merely referred me to Omron's Australian distributor saying they're unable to even check it as I was led to believe they could do when I purchased it. The Australian distributor told me I could buy a new cuff online - it was 'Out of Stock'. They also advised me to mail the monitor to them at my expense - mail delivery time + five days turnaround and replacement IF the machine was found to be faulty. On a medical critical device Omron's six year warranty has proven to be of NO use to me - as someone diagnosed with congestive heart failure the idea of waiting so many days for service is NOT appropriate. I've no choice but to invest in an alternative brand from another local retail store.

Servicing – How can you service a blood pressure machine. I have had mine for 5 years and the readings have been constant all the way through. When I first… Read more

Reliable home companion – This device is easy to use. The one-touch operation and clear display make checking my blood pressure stress-free, and the readings seem accurate and… Read more
consistent. My only gripe is that the cuff might be a bit small for larger arms, but overall, it’s a reliable device for home monitoring.
No offer to replace despite 5 year alleged warranty – OK for a year. Suddenly failed. No customer support. Told to post it to tin pot manufacturer in Port Melbourne. Have used Omron in hospitals - NOT GOOD ENOUGH!! Show details

Not reliable device – Device works ok in first few weeks. After that, it keeps displaying internal error even with new battery. Reading only shows once every eight to ten attempts. This device will give you more frustration after using. Show details
BP100 armband was almost unusable as shipped - I can't recommend it – The armband is much too small (It's text says "22cm - 32 cm"). I can get it up my upper arm, but cannot wrap the Velcro around to tighten it for… Read more
normal use. I have to already squeeze my arm to do so. So there's not enough length or Velcro surface to get a proper grip around the arm (without crushing it first). The armband is also quite narrow, needs to be about 3 cm wider for comfort, and to provide more Velco gripping strength so it doesn't slip. I have a fairly average size male upper-arm. This armband design has rendered the device almost unusable as purchased.
But I have got it to work via really crushing the cuff around my arm first, which I suspect will not be very accurate, and the Velcro can barely get a grip. Obviously the Velcro will wear out very fast doing that.
But the unit does work and my current GP has the same BP100 on his desk, but he added a full-size arm-band to it to fit all patients. So if you're an average size male and buy one of these, it will work well, but you will need to order and pay for a separate full-sized arm-band in order to use it. Which is unacceptable I reckon.
On the plus side, with the larger cuff this unit does produce very comparable results to what other machine's that other doctors and nurses use to measure my BP. So it does work well with the larger cuff arm-band fitted.
All the manufacturer had to do was make the arm-band about 10 cm longer and maybe 2 to 3 cm wider, and it would have worked. Now I'm down $100, with no working blood-pressure monitor.
One last thing, I see Omron sell a bunch of different models of blood pressure monitors, but these all seem to have the same display data and to do exactly the same things, in the same ways. So don't go paying $170 for the "top of the line" model when you can get the exact same results with a much cheaper but still just as accurate model.
Order a better more comfortable arm-band instead which is what I'm currently doing via my pharmacy to get this BP100 working properly for me after ~8 months of being nearly useless. I expect this will finally get it working, but resent having to do that and pay even more.
There's no excuse for the original armband being so small when the people who usually buy and use these are adults.

An expensive waste of money – We bought an Omron HEM-7156T blood Pressure monitor from Terry White Chemist about a year ago. According to this monitor my wife and I were both… Read more
suffering from Hypertension. My wife has started medication but I arranged to see a cardiologist. As part of several tests they gave me a 24 hour blood pressure monitoring test. The results of this showed my blood pressure was normal the same as it has been for over 60 years. The first test I did first thing in the morning of the 24 hr monitoring on the Omron HEM 31 showed 171/92. This was with new Energiser batteries. This machine is obviously faulty and it appears that this model has been withdrawn from sale?

the electrodes. This is the second Omron that's doing this but I didn't keep the receipt, so this time I took it to chemist warehouse and they looked at it, could see the fault but said they can't give a replacement despite a 2 year warranty and they told me I have to call Omron. Omron then asked me to send it back for them to check and then they will return it. It's a $146 product and I'm going to buy another brand while I wait for such poor service. No care about customers.

Not worth it unless you live in a country that supports the device – I mostly bought it for the extended features but because I can nit get it connected to my phone , it is just a fancy expensive BP machine I could… Read more
have bought for a tenth of the price. It is supposed to watch for Irregular heart rhythms, such as AFib, tachycardia, bradycardia as well as hypertension but can only be used if connected to phone. I assume because mine came from ebay it might not be a model supported in Australia so do your homework.
Also, the extended warranty registration process is a massive pain that is unnecessary.
