206 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other home health monitors: bathroom scales, blood pressure monitors, pregnancy and ovulation tests, thermometers, body composition monitors, stethoscopes, glucose monitors and pulse oximeters we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
['The HealthSmart 18-220-000 is a battery powered thermometer with an LCD display, listed at about $25.99 and weighing roughly 0.2 pounds. It sits at a mid range price for a home thermometer.', 'It carries a 4.1 star rating across roughly 206 reviews. The score is acceptable but trails the strongest models in the category, and the smaller review base means the rating rests on a narrower set of experiences.', 'The listing confirms an LCD display and battery power but does not publish a measurement type or accuracy figure, so those details are omitted. At this price and rating, it reads as a middle of the pack option rather than a standout.']

Frequently asked questions
Why is the rating only 4.1 stars?
A 4.1 star average across about 206 reviews means many buyers were satisfied while others were less so. The smaller review base also means the score can shift as more feedback comes in, so read recent reviews before deciding.
What display does the 18-220-000 use?
The listing specifies an LCD display, which provides a clear numeric readout. It does not state the measurement method, so consult the manufacturer's documentation for that detail.
Can I depend on its readings when someone is ill?
A home thermometer offers a guide rather than a diagnosis, and no accuracy figure is published for this listing. If a reading worries you or symptoms persist, consult a healthcare professional.
