The Garmin Index BPM smart blood pressure monitor is great for anyone wanting to keep an eye on their blood pressure and heart rate. Linking it up with the Garmin Connect app is a breeze, and you get to see all your stats in one place, which is super handy for tracking your heart health over time. Getting it set up for more than one person can be a bit of a challenge, but only needs to be done once. Once it has been configured, it's easy for everyone in the family to monitor their blood pressure. Seems to be at least as accurate at the Omron cuffs are the hospital.

After using for about a month, I am still not sure about the accuracy. My cheaper amazon monitor readings are closer if not the same as when I get at the doctors office. The Garmin unit can be up to 10 higher. It is a good unit, nice app it works with, still need to do more testing for checking accuracy.

Garmin's blood pressure cuff is a very nice first addition. Calibrated out of box Graphics and exports to PDF are very useful and nice. Materials and ease of use are very simple. I hope they update software to move menu order to have 'history' before Bluetooth and wifi menu options. Current it makes viewing last reading on device many more clicks then needed. I hope they push a software update to allow adding another users name to BPcuff with one Garmin connect account instead of forcing each person to make their own account. Example families. It's great for tracking but if one person is ONLY doing BP and not tied into the rest of garmin feels annoying. I hope next version or a software update to this one can get it to do HRV or sync with capable watch to do at same time as cuff and store that information together in same 'health' report. HRV is such an important health metric and it is just now starting to be considered more. Garmin needs to push more into this health space to not get left behind.

Received the monitor as a Xmas gift. Love that the data are captured seemlessly in Garmin Connect. It would get five stars from me but the cuff is surprisingly difficult to put on tight enough. Take off a half star for that. I am very happy with the monitor.

It works great and syncs with my Garmin account with no extra effort. It was easy to setup and allows me to track my blood pressure, weight and activity in one place. My wife is an MD and has checked my measured BP manually against the device. They seem to line up for the most part. This device can be used for a beginner or expert.

I really love the product, I just keep it by my bedside and use it nightly so I don't forget. It also uploads to my Garmin connect so I can show my doctor when I visit. The only thing I wish they would have done better was make the inside of the cuff a little less smooth so it does not slip when you try to tighten it. When I try to tighten the cuff, it slips, and I have to hold it and because it is on my arm, so a little difficult to do.

I've had the unit for about 18 months and it worked great for myself and my wife. After the latest software upgrade it no longer sync over wifi. Because I set it up, I can still sync to Garmin connect over bluetooth, but my wife is not getting her BP data. I've tried the steps to yank the battery to force a reset and upgrade, but it did not work.

I consider my arms to be of an average diameter, However, the cuff that goes around the arm has several places where the Velcro is patched together. I am sure this is by design, but there is a Lump where the two materials are sewn together and I have a hard time getting the seam to go through the metal loop - especially one-handed. It can take me a minute or more to get the cuff put on. I consider this a design flaw. Otherwise, I really like the way the Index BPM connects to the internet and my phone. The reports are good and informative and I can share with my wife.

I bought this item thinking it would be nice to have my blood pressure measurement automatically upload to Garmin connect. In reality this item is a big disappointment. First off the the measurement cuff takes two hands to operate. Very difficult for one person to put on. The other problem is the tiny three buttons to operate the unit. There is a icon on each button but since there is no contrast like painted icons you can't see what each button is. I would guess that the primary market for this item is for older people that have less then perfect eye sight this does not work. I own several Garmin products that I love. This is definitely not one of them. This should have been better vetted before going to market.

The BP monitor itself works great. It's a nice size. Cuff fits both me and my husbands arm. I would have given five stars but we are still trying to figure out how to add a second user without it taking away the first user. We have the Garmin smart scale and that was really easy to add.
