Product Description
Chart your Basal Body Temperature and predict ovulation - your most fertile time of the month for conceiving a baby - with a specially designed digital BBT Thermometer. When a woman ovulates, a rise in body temperature takes place in order to provide a more fertile environment for conception. By monitoring when this temperature change occurs, you can determine when ovulation takes place in your cycle. Recording each day's basal body temperature with a BBT Thermometer will help you predict ovulation. The Fairhaven Health Digital Basal Thermometer provides temperature readings to 1/100th of a degree - perfect for fertility charting and predicting ovulation.

 It gets the job done, but it's just slow November 24, 2009
Caitlyn S. Jansen
Better late than never I always say! For the price I paid for this item, it is very good. The only problem I have with it is it takes FOREVER to take my temperature. I use it daily to track my ovulation cycle, before I get out of bed in the mornings. Some days I don't have all the time in the world to wait for the therometer to read. But just as long as it's accurate, that's all that matters!
 Batteries are no good November 6, 2009
Reiko
I bought this thermometer and it only lasted for 23 days before the low battery indicator came on. I used it for about 1 week to 2 weeks after that and then it barely turned on and was so weak I couldn't trust the temp reading anymore. I gave it a lower rating because of this.
The memory recall feature is nice, but it really does flash by way to quickly for my liking. There has been several times where I would have to turn it off and back on again to see the reading because I missed it.
It is sturdy and not easily breakable. I also like how it has a pink end to it. In the end, I would recommend a different product then this one because of the short battery span. Its just to much money to spend on something that can barely last a month. If it wasn't for that then I would consider it a good thermometer.
 Does the job but is a BASIC BBT September 1, 2009

I just started using this thermometer about a week ago. It definitely does the job--takes your BBT in a timely fashion. The beep isn't too loud which is great since I take my temp at 5:30am and my husband is still sleeping. I really do not like that it does not have a lit background. At 5:30am I do not want to have to scramble for a flashlight or my cell phone to light up to be able to see the temperature to write it down. It does store the temp for the next time you turn it on but it literally only flashes for about 1 second so you have to be quick to see it! But for the money, it definitely does the job it is meant to do. If you want the lit background and longer recall, then you will pay more.
 this product is junk June 17, 2009

This product has none of the features you would need for it to be basically useful:
1) It takes a long time to reach your temp (2+ minutes)
2) The beep signals are weak and unclear (you can't always tell when your temp has been reached)
3) The battery started fading within a month.
4) It is not backlit and while it does not claim to be, this makes it impossible to read in a dark bedroom in the am.
It would be well-worth getting a better product even at a slightly higher cost. I am throwing this out and am going to buy a new basal thermometer.
Average Thermometer April 20, 2009
Amber (Boston, MA)
I think this thermometer is about average. There are definitely better ones on the market and there are certainly worse ones out there too.
Pros:
-Beeps every time you do something, which is good for taking your temp in the morning when you are barely awake
-Has a recall feature, though it is hard to push that little button long enough to see it.
-Has a cute little pink end, which deters your husband from stealing it off your nightstand.
-You can print additional temperature charts (it comes with one) for free from the manufacturers website.
Cons:
-It reads about 1.5 degrees higher than both of my other thermometers (I bought it because of the additional decimal place in the display -- easier to detect slight changes)
-The probe is REALLY thin, and I feel like I can snap it off with my tongue.
-It takes longer than other digital thermometers that I have used. I don't necessarily equate taking longer to read with being more accurate, so I'm going to go ahead and mark that down as a negative.
Overall, I'd say that you can get about the same product for a couple of dollars cheaper by going with another thermometer. Amazon does group this one in with some pregnancy tests and ovulation predictors, so maybe that's enough to make you buy it. (Hey, that worked for me.)
