Need suggestion...home BP monitor

Looking for a home BP monitor that you would suggest as accurate based on your actual use. TIA

I had one of these, but my neighbor borrowed it and broke it so she replaced it with one of these.

Both are pretty reliable and easy to use. As far as accuracy, the results certainly seem to be repeatable over short periods and they don't contradict the numbers my doctor gets. Good enough for me.

I have a little CVS job. Took it with me to the doc one time and verified its readings compared to theirs.

I have an Omron 3-series, model BP710. Been using it exactly four years now. Works great!
