It looks as if they are reliable for a good reading, but the manufacturer warns, "An ill-fitting cuff or an incorrectly-applied cuff can result in inaccurate readings".
You may want to do a few "checks" to see if yours is reading correctly, and stop into a drugstore/pharmacy and see if you receive similar readings from the blood pressure machine that uses the arm cuff, and compare to the reading you receive on your wrist monitor. Also, when you visit the doctor, take a reading on your wrist monitor and compare to the nurse's reading. This should give you the peace of mind that you are looking for.
