About Berrcom
Berrcom is the consumer brand of Guangzhou Berrcom Medical Device Co., Ltd., a thermometer manufacturer based in Guangzhou, China that has been in operation since 2000. The company's first infrared thermometer was developed during the SARS outbreak, and it passed FDA 510(k) clearance in 2008, opening the US market for the brand. Today Berrcom's catalog centers on non-contact infrared and forehead thermometers, alongside ear thermometers, digital thermometers, and nasal aspirators, with devices distributed to more than 80 countries. The manufacturer holds ISO 13485 quality-management certification, and its thermometers carry FDA 510(k) clearance and CE marking.
In our own evaluation, the Berrcom JXB-178 non-contact infrared thermometer earned top-pick recognition on two separate roundups — our forehead thermometer and infrared thermometer reviews — the only device in either lineup to combine FDA clearance with a sub-$15 price point. It carries a 4.5-star average across more than 32,000 Amazon ratings, evaluated the same way as every other product we review.

Berrcom products we rated highly
Berrcom Non-Contact Infrared Forehead Thermometer JXB-178
A 3-in-1 design that measures body temperature, food/liquid temperature, and ambient room temperature from a single device, backed by a 32-reading memory, four times the storage of most thermometers at this price. It's FDA-cleared and CE-certified, accurate to within ±0.4°F at the stated 1.2- to 2-inch measurement distance, with auto-off and a built-in fever alarm included at no extra cost.

The same 3-in-1 body, food/liquid, and room temperature design earned its place in our infrared thermometer testing, too. A backlit LCD display and 32-reading memory give it more storage than most thermometers at its price, and it holds both FDA approval and CE certification with ±0.4°F accuracy within its stated measurement distance.
