 Looks great and shows exactly the right temperature... is everyone elses broken? November 29, 2008
K. Heafield (Derby, England)
I was in two minds whether or not to buy this because of all the bad reviews about it being inaccurate, but I thought 'What the heck, I can always send it back'. I'm so glad I took the risk because this little gadget is great! It looks brilliant, giving a lovely soft glow to the nursery and the colours are a great visual indicator of the temperature which save you stumbling around in the dark trying to peer at a non-light up one. On the subject of the thermometer being inaccurate, I have to say it is definately not a problem with my egg as I have compared it to an extreamly accurate thermocouple thermometer and they always read no more than 0.1 of a degree apart. I don't know whether there has been a bad batch of these eggs going out to cause them to give the wrong reading, but it's definately not all of them. One of the best things I've brought for the nursery.
I love my egg! November 21, 2008

If I had to pick a nursery product that I couldn't do without, it would be this one. I have never had any problems with the temperature reading, it is always accurate. Can only assume the people who've experienced problems have eggs that maybe had a manufacturing fault.
Works for us!! November 5, 2008

We purchased this item a week ago and have found it to be extremely accurate (It correlates with readings from two other thermometers).
The colour coded output is also very handy as you only need to glance into babys room to check that the room temperature is OK.
I understand that the latest Grobag Eggs have a relocated temperature sensor (moved from top of connector to rear of connector) which reduces incidence of false temperature readings - maybe its just the older units that have the problems ??
We are very happy with our purchase.
Served us well for years October 7, 2008

We have had an egg for a couple of years now. Our daughters bedroom is subject to extreme temp changes and we needed to be able to see what the temperature was in the dark. The egg seemed to be the perfect solution, and it has been. It has a lovely glow as a night light, and it has always been accurate enough to warn us when we need to open her windows (summer time!) or put extra blankets over her (sometimes her room becomes so cold that we have to put the heating on in the middle of the night!).
If you live in a modern home with proper central heating and insulation, then you probably don't really need a bedroom thermometer (or perhaps you'll be one of these people worrying about a thermometer being one or two degrees out!), but if you are worried that your child's bedroom will not hold it's temperature well at night, then the Egg really is the best thing on the market.
 Apparently it's always hot! October 4, 2008

Well, like the others I find this to read ridiculously hot. When we have another thermometer (which is also inaccurate reading too high, that's why we replaced it with this!) reading 23.5 and the heating thermostat set at 19 the egg continues to warn us it's 24.9 degrees in here. This is positively dangerous, I bought this product because I am disabled in a way that I can't tell my own body temperature and need to rely on a thermometer, I could die from hypothermia if I trusted this thing. It's going straight back.
