I really like the BP cuff, both its fit and ease of operation. I can't say the same about getting the device to connect to the Garmin Connect app. I spent way too much time trying every solution I could find. I'm unhappy and am returning the device

My bottom line up front: With a true, one size fits all and user replaceable cuff, I would have given the Garmin Index BPM 5 stars and would definitely buy it again. Easy to setup and pretty intuitive to use once you get to know the three buttons and their functions. I really enjoy the features and compactness the Garmin Index BPM provides. The seamless connection with Garmin Connect through Wi-Fi is a great feature and I no longer have to manually transfer my readings. Though, I feel Garmin missed the mark with the cuff. While the cuff would seem to accommodate various upper arm sizes, in my experience, the three bands of Velcro interfere with getting a consistent fit over the width of the cuff. I would have preferred one continuous cuff instead of the three sectioned one that is provided. Also, I currently own and have owned many Garmin devices and am 100% confident that the electronics will outlast the cuff material and would have liked to see it employ a user replaceable cuff.

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 Garmin BPM Smart Blood Pressure Monitor for several weeks, and I love how easy and straight forward it is. It was relatively easy to configure and begin gathering data. The cuff fits well enough that I seldom have to adjust it, and just slip my arm in to take a reading. The display is simple and easy to read. The buttons are obvious and easy manipulate. I continue to be amazed at how variable blood pressure can be and I've experimented with different times of the day, with/without coffee, before/after exercise. The device seems to work well with or without wearing shirt sleeves. The classifications of BP annoy me as 120/80 is now classified as 'Elevated' but I suppose that critic should be reserved for the vaunted medical industry. All in all I'd buy it again, and I understand the premium I'm paying to have my data integrated with my watch.

I've been using the blood pressure monitor for a month now and find it very easy to use. I also like how it saves the information to Garmin Connect and can be viewed along with all of the other stats saved from my other Garmin products. i.e. watch, weight scale, bike cadence and speed sensors, and heart rate monitor. It took less than 10 minutes to setup once removed from the box. So far, so happy!

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.

Excellent compact design that delivers. Once initial fitting is done, you simply slip it on and push the button to start. No need for refitting every time. Love that I can keep a running record of my blood pressure over time. With the compact design, you can even travel with it. Also allows for multiple user tracking.

I have been using this MPM for almost 10 months. Easy operations, but for me, a tad slow while sync is on. You must wait quite a while after recording to get it further (2nd measurement or user). What is more frustrating is an incredible battery drain. I may be wrong and do something badly, but since the device has been in use for 10 months, I have changed 5 complete sets of batteries (4AAA) from different OEMs. In any case, I thank you for this great invention.

This is the fourth blood pressure cuff I've bought. It is my favorite of them all. The reading are fairly accurate as compared to a manual sphygmomanometer. That being said, you do have to be Very Careful and follow the instructions exactly or you will wind up with a very inaccurate reading. Arm strength out resting at heart level. Give yourself a few minutes to relax before you take a reading. I don't think any of the automatic blood pressure cuffs are exact, but if used correctly gets you in the “ballpark”. I like that it automatically saves the data to Garmin Connect.

When Garmin announced this I immediately thought of grabbing it mostly because it automatically syncs with Garmin Connect and then I'll have a history of my readings. I'm also more likely to use it more often because of the cool factor and ease of use. I ordered the unit the day after it came out with my HSA account as this is an approved expenditure. I started checking a few times a day and found it to be reading higher than the less expensive monitor that my wife and I use. This caused me to keep using it and more often. I like the way the data presents in a very easy-to-use chart that also lets you know if you're normal, elevated, or in stage 1 or 2 hypertension. After a lot of higher than normal readings I scheduled a doctor's appointment and took the Garmin with me as well as my cheap monitor. I reviewed the results with the doctor and compared the Garmin, the other monitor and Doc's readings. The Garmin Index BPM was spot on with the doctor and I'm very glad I purchased this as it allowed me to see a problem I didn't realize I had and start getting these numbers lowered. VERY glad I purchased the product.
