Bought another Omron BP machine from Lazada. Is it real?

[giddyup]

Bought an Omron HEM7130 ten years ago  from Lazada that finally quit on me, so bought another basic model an Omron BP701 from the "Official Omron Store". However, the new model has absolutely no identifying marks, like brand, model # or where it's made, so hard to know if it's even the real deal. The old model had all the correct markings, so assumed they all would do. Now I'm a bit skeptical as to whether I can even trust it's readings.

What do all the other reviews say? They would post photos and probably comment on it

Check it against another unit at a clinic or hospital. Repeatability is more important than absolute accuracy.

My bad, there are no reviews. Because it was the "Official Omron Store" I assumed that it was a new release and none were sold yet. However, even the model # doesn't show up anywhere on a Google search except for Lazada and Shopee, so maybe it's only released in Thailand.

Why not post a link to the listing?

Just did a google for the product and got 3 links from Lazada and Shopee.

 

Two of them are dead links "product doesn't exist".

 

Guess it was too cheap to be true.

No listing on the Omron website for that model.

 

Was it this one on Lazada that you purchased ?

 

Clicking on the link.. it is not omron offical store

 

 

I assume you left this review ?

That is not the Omron offical store as you claimed in your OP.

 

And there are reviews, although you claimed there were non, which doubt it is a genuine product

The seller tells me it was made for the Russian market, but orders were cancelled and now being resold here. They have said return it for full refund if concerned. It does come with a 5 year warranty, if that's worth anything.

It's not Omron official store, it's Health Convenience Store, whoever they are, only 11 followers, can't see how many products, so could be fake. 

 

Having said that I bought a no name one from Lazada for 250 baht and it's very good. 

 

Certainly a misleading advert so return it if you can. 

 

Ironically this is probably pushing your blood pressure up

Well it says official store on the page I open, not going to argue about it.

Maybe you need new glasses as well then.
