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.

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.

I've had an Index 2 scale for a while now, so thought the Index BPM would be a good addition, not expecting anything other than tracking over time. But, it turns out my BP is a little high, so have started to be more focused on my exercise and weight to get ahead of it. Who knew?

I found it hard to pair initially as I also did with the scale. Maybe it's me but I usually don't have these kind of problems. Also difficult to add a person. I finally gave up on that. Need to be able to do something with the extra cuff if you have smaller arms. My wife had difficulty putting it on her arm. The good and the reason I bought it is once it is paired it syncs well with Garmin Connect. I doubt I would buy this product again

I work as an Anesthesiologist. I was very surprised a month ago when I recorded high blood pressures during a routine physical. I compared the garmin machine to the machines in the hospital. Both were the same. I appreciate the connivence of the data streaming to my phone. I already used garmin connect for my cycling and other workouts. I would recommend this product

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.

First off taking one's blood pressure by yourself is hard. That's the primary reason I went with this type. The next is the name. I have experience with this brand from a boat I used to have. The final observation is out of the twelve times I used it, my reading were consistent. The issue is that it was off consistently by 28 points. Instead of a top reading 140 it said consistently my BP was 121 top number. The next manufacturer I tried did almost the exact same thing. So obviously the problem is trying to do it myself.

Terrific Tool. I use it every morning. I love that I can use it and it is displayed in Garmin Connect App. I have it with my Garmin Scale and my Garmin Pro HRM. Also my Garmin 840 Cycle computer and my Garmin Power Pedals. Blood pressure is super critical to health. I am getting to depend on Garmin products more and more for reliable measurement! If there are changes I can make intelligent fitness changes. Don't quit. Never stop measuring to motivate and never stop exercising.

Friends brought me the device from the US to Germany and I am so happy to have very good and almost complete accessories to monitor my fitness and heart health now. All that's missing is a coming new fenix 8 with ECG function, and I'm completely happy...

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.
