I've had this monitor for about a month. I purchased it to replace another monitor that I have that I no longer have the software that came with it. I like that it takes the readings and uploads to my Garmin account automatically and that I don't have physically connect it to do so. It does that very well. It is however not quite as intuitive to use as my old monitor that has clearly marked buttons that let you know their function. If you don't want to have to remember the button sequences needed to take your blood pressure or to recall it. This monitor is not for you. As far as reading accuracy, you need to follow the instructions carefully to get an accurate reading. If you don't, your reading could be off by a fair amount. Also while you can review your last reading on the monitor itself, it appears that is the only reading it keeps so if you don't setup the monitor to transfer the readings to your Garmin account you will lose them. I got this monitor because I already had a Garmin account and wanted to replace my old monitor. After a learning curve, I am happy with the monitor. I can recommend it to people who have a Garmin account but if you don't and don't plan to in the future then I'd say you won't be happy with it.

On annual physicals my blood pressure was marginally high, so I decided to monitor it. Very glad I did, because I found that measuring at home my blood pressure was substantially lower - in fact, downright normal/average. Since it loads directly to Connect I can see the trends across time as well. Super happy with this.

Received the unit and took my first measure. It came back with a reading in the 'Hypertensive Crisis' range. I calmly waited and took several more measurements. Same results. I was not having any cardiac symptoms, so I decided to take a measurement each morning at the same time. The readings always came back in the State 2 to critical level. Armed with a 7-day report from Garmin Connect I headed to my doctor. The doc was great and tested my with 3 different methods, including a stethoscope. All of the docs readings were similar and normal. I also tested twice with the Garmin Index BPM under the docs supervision. Once again the Garmin Index BPM put me at Stage 2 (very high). The Garmin was reading 20+ high and I have returned the unit for a refund.

I purchased the Index BPM when it first came out in September of 2022. It is different from the Omron cuff that I was used to. After viewing the online videos on how to take a reading, it has been great ever since. After comparing several weeks' worth of readings with the Omron, I decided to stick with the Garmin. Also, there is the added benefit that your BP readings are seamlessly integrated with the Garmin Connect ecosystem.

Купил этот прибор, так как являюсь пользователем многих устройств Garmin: часы Epix, велокомпьютер Edge 530, педали Rally, радар, весы.. Что понравилось - все данные попадают в Garmin Connect без дополнительных манипуляций. Прибор удобный и компактный. Поддерживает несколько пользователей (как и весы Index). Что хотелось бы дополнительно: нет кейса для хранения и перевозки. Данные о давлении не учитывываются в рекомендациях по тренировкам и здовроью в Connect.

I do not suffer from high or low blood pressure since getting myself in shape but as part of my overall fitness regime I have been monitoring my BP for a while now. As an avid Garmin user, this product's launch was timely for me and since I received it, has not failed me. In concert with Garmin Connect, I now have a full history of my BP over a period of time which I can share seamlessly with my Doctor. Awesome product.

I bought the device three months ago and its main flaw is that it measures the upper pressure incorrectly. On average, it's off by +30 points. The error for the lower pressure is almost zero. All its other features are very good and I hope that Garmin will fix the error through an upgrade.

This was purchased to add to our growing Garmin devices. It seems to do a perfectly adequate job at providing a daily insight into blood pressure. I have not verified it versus a 'professional' set but it is a good indicator at any rate and so long as it is accurate to itself, which it is, I hope to use it to provide some additional diagnosis tools to maintain general health. It adjusts easily and is three button simple. My only complaint so far is that I have not found a way to set up both mine and my Wife's connection to our Garmin connect app simultaneously. When she connects it to hers, it seems to remove my profile altogether. It is entirely possible this is user error. Simply stated, it does exactly what I expected it to do, which is perfect.

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 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.
