Buying guide · BP Monitors
The Omron HEM-7121 is the best BP monitor we tested for most homes: the steadiest readings in our group and simple enough for an elderly parent to use alone. The Omron HEM-7156T is the main alternative if you want readings on a phone app or need a cuff for arms above 32 cm.
BP Monitors
The Omron HEM-7121 is a plain AA-powered upper-arm BP monitor that gave the most repeatable readings in our group and is easy for elderly parents to use alone, but it has no app or Bluetooth.
Editor’s Choice
BP Monitors
The Omron HEM-7156T is a Bluetooth upper-arm BP monitor with a wide-range IntelliWrap cuff that syncs readings to the Omron Connect app, best for families who share data with a doctor.
BP Monitors
The Beurer BM 27 is a no-app upper-arm BP monitor with four user memories and a cuff listed for 22-42 cm arms, a good fit for larger families and bigger arms, though service reach is thinner than Omron's.
BP Monitors
The Dr. Morepen BP-15 is a low-priced AA-powered upper-arm BP monitor with a 3-reading average and two-user memory that gives usable home readings, though less steady than Omron's models.
Best Budget
BP Monitors
The Rossmax X1 is a basic AA-powered upper-arm BP monitor with a large LCD and one-button start that is easy for elders, but it costs more than the Morepen BP-15 for fewer stated features.
BP Monitors
The Agaro BP 601 is an inexpensive upper-arm BP monitor that speaks results in English and can run on USB or AAA cells, but its readings were less steady than Omron's and cuff sizing is unclear.
BP Monitors
The Dr Trust 109 is a low-cost wrist BP monitor that is small and runs on two AAA cells, but its readings swung more with wrist position than upper-arm monitors in our tests, so it suits only careful users.
