(More customer reviews)This little peak flow meter is very nice.I used it for my son, who had a tendency to try and trick the meters.This meter told me if he was trying to cough into the unit or fool it in some other way.It's small and compact and stores 99 previous readings.I program it to tell me when he is in the yellow or red zone so I can hear it beep when he blows.The biggest drawback, and the only reason I am not giving a 5 star rating, is the Pikonet software and USB device fails to function properly to download my son's readings.That was one of the reasons I bought this unit, to better track his progress.
PROS:
+ I can get more accurate readings because my son is not able to fool the unit by coughing into it or tonguing it.
+ It stores 99 previous readings.
+ It beeps when the patient is in the yellow or red zone.
+ It is small and compact.
CONS:
- The Pikonet software and USB device do not work to download my son's Piko readings.
SUMMARY
This is an excellent unit as a standalone peak flow meter.Just don't expect the computer connectivity that is advertised.
