Highly accurate ear thermometer
Braun ThermoScan measures the infrared heat generated by the eardrum and surrounding tissue. The ear accurately reflects the core body temperature because the eardrum shares the blood supply with the temperature control center in the brain, making the ear an excellent site to measure temperature. When core body temperature rises, it is quickly detectable in the ear.
The ear thermometer brand most recommended by pediatricians
Based on an Arendt Consulting Survey reporting that of the surveyed pediatricians who recommend a brand of thermometers to their patients, Braun is the most recommended brand.
Great for infants, toddlers, and adults
Braun ThermoScan measures body temperature quickly, gently and accurately, ensuring you can easily monitor your family’s health. Disposable lens filters ensure you can use the thermometer with multiple family members without the risk of cross-contamination.
Pre-warmed tip
A pre-warmed tip minimizes the cooling effect that could result from the introduction of a cool probe tip. The patented pre-warmed tip helps ensure accuracy, measurement after measurement to a tenth of a degree.
Highly accurate reading
The patented ExacTemp positioning system confirms good position in the ear with a light and a beep to ensure accurate temperature measurement.
60 Additional Lens Filters
Designed so you can easily switch between users without having to spend time cleaning the probe. Lens filters also ensure earwax residue does not impact accuracy of the reading. 81 lens filters are included in the package - that's an additional 60 filters!
Large, easy-to-read display
Easily view results at a glance. A built-in memory function recalls the last temperature reading allowing you to keep track of fluctuations.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2025I now have 5 stinking thermometers including a lower cost Braun ones and a totally useless ear / forehead one from Costco. This one is the best. Most accurate by far. One of the other ones I recently got was a cheaper Braun one, to replace a Braun I had used for ten+ years reliably til it died. The new lower cost braun told me my temp was 105 multiple times over two days .. and while I WAS sick, I didn’t feel thaaat bad. I ordered this one for same day delivery out of frustration. This one gave a much lower reading (high 102) as did a traditional cheapie under the tongue one that I also got. But those are hard to use on kids. And some adults 😂. anyways .. Spend the extra and go for this version if you’re on the fence. Don’t waste your money like I did on the cheaper brauns.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2025So many months later and it’s still my favorite thermometer I’ve ever owned. I wish I would have bought this 4 years ago instead of suffering those long sleepless nights trying to take accurate temperature of my sick child with thermometers that never read correctly. This one is ALWAYS on point. I keep the plastic disposable cover on and always use the same one unless I’m using it on another family member or the one on the thermometer gets damaged. Save money that way. You have to keep it for accurate results, because it’s made to read the temperature with the disposable cover on. Use is easy peasy, and I purposely bought this one also because I HATE trying to mess with thermometers that don’t have a lighted screen for night reading!!!! Don’t waste money buying a sucky one every year, get this one. This one only reads the ear though, so for very young babies that requires rectal, you can’t use it.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2025Love how clear the numbers are and at night i dont have to look at the numbers just the color when im tired and cant see that well. Works way better than others i have bought

Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2025Si tienen niños tienen que tenerlo en menos de un segundo marca la temperatura y no tienes que estar batallando con tus hijos para medirle la temperatura es muy bueno y trae varios repuestos
- Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2025We got this thermometer to replace our extremely inaccurate infrared one and loved it. It was accurate, easy to use with our one year old, and the screen changed color to tell you if the temperature was normal, a low grade fever, or a high fever. Unfortunately, it got bumped off the middle shelf of our changing table and fell maybe a foot to the floor. It now won't turn on and doesn't work at all. We're a little frustrated at how easily it broke with how pricey it was, and it's not in our budget to buy another $50 thermometer to replace it. But it worked well while it worked!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2024Forgive that tacky joke, please, even thought it’s true. Or is that just the fever making me delusional? We’ve been using Braun Thermoscan for almost 20 years. Simply said, the 5 and 6 are equally reliable with one key difference: The essential light for nighttime use. You will often find the 6 on sale. Be sure yours comes with the plastic case to slip into. That’s a must to keep everything much cleaner, including the box of probes that can fit inside it. Lastly, we tried the 4 recently since it has a light a bargain price. That model is a big avoid. Not accurate, very flimsy and no better than any Chinese knockoff.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2025Works great and is easy to use. It came with plenty of the little covers to use and then just toss. The case in came in is great because it holds the thermometer and the covers so you they don’t get lost!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2024I have numerous thermometers - two digital for oral temp or rectal (most accurate read). And 3 different forehead/ear ones, including a pricey Fridababy model. All 3 forehead/ear ones are worthless and were reading no fever, maybe 99.5, when my daughter’s rectal temp was showing 103!!! I hate doing rectal temps now that she’s older and she refuses to let me put a thermometer in her mouth. She is Autistic and it’s become quite an ordeal to take her temperature. Anyway, rush ordered this and finally, finally, it works! Latest rectal temp was 101.5 and this Braun in the ear read 101.4. Almost identical. I’m so happy! Worth the $

5.0 out of 5 stars Trusted, Reliable, Highly Recommended
I don’t give out five stars or leave reviews easily, but Braun Thermometers has been the best Thermometer on the market. Yes, it is not cheap, but it is reliable and built to last, with accurate temperature readings I can trust. I have been with the brand for more than two decades, and I have yet to find a competitor that offers this level of accuracy and reliability at this price point.
