What at home blood pressure monitor are you using?

Looking for suggestions. What has worked well and provides results consistent with the doctor's office? I've had 2 digital upper arm monitors and they suck. I'm considering just going old school with a pump cuff and stethoscope.

I use both cuff/stethoscope and upper arm battery powered machine from WalMart. Both work well and are in agreement

It is best to take your BP upon waking before your feet hit the floor. Take it while still laying in bed immediately upon waking to give you an accurate baseline measurement. Taking it throughout the day is less reflective of your baseline. If it is consistently 140/90 or higher, time to see a physician. My doctor started me on Hydrochlorothiazide and a low dose statin 2 years ago. BP was fine upon waking but labile during the day. Rationale was my age and being a male, so there you go. There is no shame in taking care of you.

I've had Omron M3 for a few years now and it works great. It's accuracy is clinically validated and I've seen the same monitor at a dr.'s office. I paid somewhere between 50-100 $ for it.
