Got one off E-bay a while back, and the specialist who was checking what my BP was doing was delighted that I was checking it on a regular basis, and the results I was getting ( and recording) were tying in very closely with the "professional" equipment. OK the wrist cuffs have to be put on with care, and the usual caveats apply, but to dismiss the wrist units as "dodgy" is a bit like some of the other issues going the rounds here at the moment, it's dangerous to generalise about almost anything these days.
