Medline Handheld Aneroid Sphygmomanometer w/PVC Tubing & Bladder, Adult, Blue

I bought this blood pressure cuff to practice taking blood pressures as a newly graduated CNA without a lot of money to invest. I sent it right back. It was improperly calibrated. The bulb didn't start inflating the cuff at all for several squeezes (3-4), and then blood pressures I measured were consistently dangerously high on people who consistently have normal blood pressures. If I am buying a new product, I believe it should be ready to use without having to have it serviced (recalibrated) first. Also, for a normal sized "adult" cuff, I thought the cuff itself was rather small. Consider carefully the quality of any product you purchase, especially if it is related to healthcare. I wish more traditional blood pressure cuffs (that you need to listen to with a stethoscope) were available at brick-and-mortar stores so a potential purchaser could examine them in person before making a purchase. Also, returning the item was very expensive.
