10 Reviews: Best Ear Thermometer for Baby (Apr 2024)

The Infrared Thermometer by GoodBaby is one of the best selling thermometers on Amazon. Until now there have been more than 50 thousand reviewers who earned 4.3 out of 5 stars. At a very affordable price, this device can work on the forehead or in the ear and comes with 2 AAA batteries. You can use it right out of the box. Plus, the operation is as simple as pointing and pressing a button.

Love how light and portable it is, it is so easy to use on the temple or in the ear. Gives consistent readings, and it gives reading quickly (don't have to wait forever like other ones, which is much better for a fussy baby), it is extremely simple to use. Love it.

The Chooseen Digital Forehead and Ear Thermometer is the right choice if you are looking for a device that can be used for any member of the family. Besides being very affordable, this device wins points for its flexibility. You can use forehead mode or ear mode, Celsius or Fahrenheit, and turn on the beep or mute it. Most importantly, the thermometer is backed by clinical studies so that its accuracy is guaranteed.

I like this thermometer. It is so easy to use and convenient to track my baby temperature. I like their design that we can both check the baby's temperature on forehead or ear. The results appear fast and very accurate, that's is why I really like it.

The iProven DMT-489 is another great dual-mode thermometer that lets you switch between the forehead and ear readings depending on what you prefer. What makes this product superior is its measurement speed which is claimed to be no more than three seconds. In addition, this unit has a backlit display that turns one of four colors depending on your temperature. It’s great for all ages.

Absolutely love this thermometer. When the flu is rampid and you have a 6 month old baby with a 103.8 fever you will appreciate the speed and accuracy of this device! P.s. She is better now!

Next up is the Reliefcare Dual Mode Thermometer that offers instant readings, a color-coded fever warning system, and 25 sets of memory. In addition, this device is also equipped with sound patterns to indicate temperature from normal to fever. A lot of people who’ve used it say it’s accurate, easy to use, and easy to read. Less each? You can use this unit to measure room temperature, bathwater, and bottle temperatures.

At a friends reccomendation, we bought this one and could not be happier. It's accurate and fast! I can't tell you how frustrating it is in the middle of the night to not be able to get an accurate temperature on your baby. This ReliefCare thermometer works great. We've used it heavily for a period of several weeks when everyone in the house got a bad fever.

Fast, gentle, easy, and accurate. It is undeniable that Braun is one of the best brands when it comes to the thermometer. The ThermoScan 5 is no exception. Uniquely, the device will not operate until one is snugly in place, thanks to the ExacTemp positioning system. Also, to ensure the measurement is accurate, this unit features a pre-warmed tip to prevent lower readings due to the cool probe tip.

I had been looking for a new thermometer that could be used for my babies as well as adults and came across this one. I was hesitant to get it as it is not on the cheap side, however I did find it cheaper here than an other store. It comes reads great, is easy to use and comes with replaceable ear covers. 10 out of 10 would recommend

This digital ear thermometer from the Tommee Tippee features a small ear probe which means you can use it for newborns. This device is the right choice if you are looking for a product with basic features but need a fever alert. In just one second, you can find out the baby’s temperature in a clear reading on the LCD display. Moreover, it also stores up to nine readings to help you track your child’s temperature.

I love this thermometer!! It’s easy to use on my 3 month old son! It’s so nice to have it at a time when I’m worried that he is sick

Designed for all ages, the FORA IR18 comes in flattering pastel pink. Unlike other products, this one is powered by a CR2032 battery which can last longer because the thermometer turns off automatically in 30 seconds. The device promises stable results from consecutive checks test which you can get in just one second. Furthermore, you can recall up to ten readings to know your temperature changes.

Works as it should and the most important thing, it is pink!!!! Can't tell how much I love it!

With the Braun Thermoscan 7, you can select the appropriate age group before measuring temperature, which offers a better understanding of what the reading means. You’ll get color-coded results on the large backlit display within each of those presets. The Thermoscan 7 also ensures you can easily read the measurement with the user-friendly interface while also keeping a log of the last nine temperature readings.

I love that it has 3 settings depending on the age of your baby/toddler. It provides peace of mind that you're getting an accurate temperature, and it's also a great baby gift for new moms. Our family highly recommends!

If you are looking for a thermometer with advanced technology, nothing is better than the Motorola Smart Ear Thermometer. It’s backlit for easy readings in dark nurseries and has the option to turn off beeps, which we liked, so no sleeping babies are woken. To make it even better, you can transmit readings instantly via Bluetooth to the Hubble Connect for Smart Nursery app, where you can track the temperature history of up to 4 family members.

I'm late with this review - one year late. But it's one year later and this works great. I have no complaints.

Our list is closed by the Braun ThermoScan 6 which has everything you could want: pre-warmed tip, last reading memory recall, the ExacTemp technology, reads in “F” or “C”, and a large easy-to-read screen. It also uses a color-coded display to quickly identify fever based on age. The good news is, your purchase includes 81 lens filters, protective storage case, and 2AA batteries. It can be used right out of the box.
