What digital forehead thermometer should I buy?
I want to buy a forehead digital thermometer for my daughter, but I know some brands are significantly more accurate than others. I’m looking for a good one. Thanks!

According to a 2005 article in Consumer Reports, "The bottom line. A digital oral thermometer is the best choice for an adult or a child. The best in our tests was the BD Digital Accu-Beep, $10." For a forehead thermometer, they did give a "good" rating to the Exergen Temporal Scanner 2000c, which they say costs $50.
I’d suggest you also check with your pediatrician or your pharmacist.
Good luck.
