Con
Not as accurate as rectal thermometers
There are only a few studies made that shows the accuracy of a temporal over rectal thermometers. For newborns and babies younger than 6 months, rectal readings are still considered the most accurate.

Suitable for parents who are uncomfortable with rectal thermometers
First-time parents or those who don't like the idea of sticking a thermometer inside their baby's rectum will like this. You will only use this on your baby's forehead or your child's ear as he grows older. There is no fear of puncturing anything at all.

Con
Has to be used at room temperature
When using it as a forehead thermometer, you have to acclimatize it to room temperature. You need to do this for 30 minutes before you use it so it will produce an accurate result. If you don't want to do this every time, you can store this at room temperature or use the ear function.

Invasive
