Summary
The Braun IRT6520 is the best baby thermometer in the market. Precision and test speeds have been improved and with the introduction of the Age Precision ™ function, it gives the thermometer those extra features such as memory, which are great for any parent plus super convenient for use. Having a backlight is definitely a welcome addition, especially when you need to read temperatures at night. We like the traffic light reading system and we can only recommend having one at home, a must-have.

( votes)Braun Thermoscan 7 IRT6520 Thermometer
Your baby feeling ill and with temperature can be a real nightmare scenario for any parent. Braun Thermoscan 7 IRT6520 Thermometer with Age Precision aims to provide worried parents with a quick and reliable metric of their little one temperature. Readings are done in an instant with the very clever age precision technology they pack inside these thermometers.
The Braun Thermoscan 7 IRT6520 Thermometer with Age Precision is an ear thermometer that can accurately interpret temperature readings. It works on a range of ages of 0-3, 3-36 and 36+ months and it will provide readings on a color-coded LCD easily telling you if the temperature is normal or not. For a parent who needs to know whether their little one has a fever and quickly, it is brilliant. It is very easy to use and provides fast, consistent and reliable results which is something any parent will find reassuring.
The color coded LCD uses a clever traffic light system to give you readings. Green indicates normal temperature, yellow for elevated temperature and red for high temperature. Within a minute a parent can have a reading (via the ear) and find out whether their little one has a temperature, giving them the opportunity to act quickly if need be.
Features
The Braun Thermoscan 7 IRT6520 Thermometer has a range of clever features which are very useful, including a heated tip that makes sure you get accurate readings, a night light display to enable a parent to use the thermometer at night and the ExacTemp guidance system which beeps to let you know that the thermometer is in the right place in the ear canal in order to take an accurate reading. The thermometer uses filters on the tip to keep the thermometer clean over time, which are available to buy separately when you run out.
In addition to this, the Braun ThermoScan 7 with Age Precision IRT6520 records the last nine temperature readings, which we think are brilliant for parents who need to know if the temperature has risen or reduced over a period of time. This is extremely useful, for instance, in the middle of the night when you take a temperature reading of your child. You might not be able to remember what the last reading was so having this memory feature means the thermometer remembers it for you so it’s one less thing to worry about.
Conclusion
We really like how the Braun Thermoscan 7 IRT6520 Thermometer is stored away in its own custom made case. It is really easy to hold and there are no over-complicated buttons on the front making it easy to use and very practical. We feel confident that any parent can use this thermometer in a matter of seconds. We think it is very important that temperatures are taken seriously and you don’t want to waste any time getting inaccurate readings that you can’t work with when your little one is ill. The Braun Thermoscan 7 thermometer is a brilliant price with excellent features that will give parents peace of mind just when they need it. We think it is a must for any parents first aid box and will come in handy on many occasions.
