Looks good to me. Very good in fact.

Good mine were 225 over 105 when I started my blood pressure medication. Now it's about that level

120/80 is the "ideal" adult bp so looks fine

yes that's pretty good. If you take it 2-3 times, leaving 30-60 seconds between each one, it will vary - and you can log the lowest reading, if you are keeping a record of it.

I have the same monitor, did you not get an instruction leaflet with it that outlines the normal / high ranges?
