I agree with a previous reviewer about the strips stuck together and the touching the loading end trying to get them out of the plastic container. Recently they have been packaging more strips in the plastic container making it even harder to get them out with diabetic fingers having neuropathy from so many tests in the fingers in 40 years. Like so many other manufacturers that are cutting corners and upping prices these days. No regard for the end user only the bottom line. You would think that products would improve with time not degrade. I give a three thumbs down for Life Scan on this venture. Norm

Works from small drop of blood and seems to give reliable results which match my Hba1c results. Very few strips don't read and that seems to be mainly when I miss the slot on the test strip (fumble fingers) and only part load the strip. I have only used 1 other type of unit so cannot comment much on the others; however this has proved quite a good unit over the past 14 months.

Cost competitive, reliable, easy to use

Was really excited to try new machine/strips. Seems easy to use. Problem out of 25 strips in one bottle more than 10 have errored so far and prompted to use another strip... Going to give another go, but may have to replace with something more reliable.
easy to add comments
Lots of Errors, not reading the strip.
