I thought this would be a nice upgrade from another B/P cuff I've been using for years, and thinking it would be nice to have my B/P showing up in Garmin Connect. However, readings on the BPM Smart Blood Pressure Monitor were so much higher, I began comparing reading, when I say higher, I mean at least 20 points higher on the Systolic. The reading on 1/29 the reading was 202/101 with a pulse of 142 and I was, supposedly in Hypertensive Crisis. The reading from the old cuff was 139/83 with a pulse of 54 (this was after drinking coffee.) Readings from the old cuff are similar to those taken by my PCP. There are times when the readings between the old cuff the BPM are close, but not often for me to consider it accurate.

I can't speak for anyone else, but my blood pressure usually only gets checked when I'm in a Dr's office. I've had elevated readings passed off as being from nerves or whatever, but this device is showing me I actually have high blood pressure and now I'm working on that. Very cool to see when I'm making progress and what's maybe leading to elevated readings. The extra user setup, took us a few tries to get my wife and I both added. Understanding the difference between the wifi and bluetooth setup is the key.

I bought this blood pressure monitor over others because it is supposed to integrate with Garmin Connect. I have followed all the steps and tried multiple times to get it to upload data, but nothing has worked to get it to actually upload (it will connect, but never actually push data). I really wanted to be able to easily track this health stat over time, but if the automatic uploading doesn't work, I'd be better off with a much cheaper non-connected alternative.

Like all Garmin products this BP is spot on with being extremely well built and durable. Using it is simple, the interface with Garmin Connect works everytime with no human intervention. And the readings as far as I can tell are accurate and consistent.

I am hoping that I got a bad BPM - sent it back and hopefully new one will work. Sent it back since it was consistently reading 15-20 points higher than what I get from medical professionals taking it manually. Will try the replacement - hopefully it reports more accurately as I love Garmin products.

I'm getting a measurement of around 170/100, multiple times. I have other Omron BPMs and they're all sub 140 / sub 90. It makes no sense. First Garmin product I'm disappointed with. Hoping there's a software/firmware update in the next few days to get this working correctly or it's going back.

Perhaps it is faulty, and it looks like I will be returning it. I cannot get it to connect to WiFI. It works like any other BPM but I bought it for its capacity to record my details automatically and be a part of the details gathered by Garmin Connect. But it doesn't do the bit I bought it for.

My previous blood pressure monitor refused to give a reading at my low resting heart rate of under 40 bpm. I'm happy that this unit has no such problem. It's also great to have my blood pressure in Garmin Connect along with weight, HRV status, and other health and performance metrics.

Its great having something that feel like quality in the realm of BP cuffs, as many are just so cheap feeling, etc. Not this one. Love the 3 tests in a row option. Love that it sends results to my Garmin app to track. This is great for anyone looking to track their bp and even in conjunction with their Garmin watch, etc. I have only had it short stroke a reading once

I tried to wait for this machine to go on sale and the price stays the same!!I understand why now this is a quality unit and I love the graph it give you on the app.I would definitely recommend this unit it compact versatile, and easy to use.Thank for another great product!!
