Glucose Meter By Chris Kong on - Updated Sep 18, 2011
Pro: The monitor is small and easy to carry around.The test strip can pull blood in so does not need much drop for testing. Easy to use . The memory syatem is good can record up to 400 readings and just with one button it can calculate seven days average , fourteen days average and thirty days average automatically . Large number display.
Cons: Take quite long to show the reading , around 45 seconds. The strip should be individually packed . Individually packed strips will be better for those who are not testing their blood sugar every day , then there will be no fear of exposing the strips to oxygen. Price is expensive for the meter and the strips. Once in a while , error do come in when the blood drop does not fully cover the allocated area.

Haha.. accuchek is equally good except for the strips which are not individually packed.
45 seconds does seem like a bit of time to get your reading!! It still sounds like a great meter though!!
Sounds like a good meter, I am not to familiar with them.. thanks for the info
I haven't tried this meter yet...i have several others that I typically use, but this one sounds like a good one too.
I have this same meter, I have been fairly pleased with it.
I love accucheck , they have wonderful after sale service..
A good way to check your blood sugar level is vital both for diabetics, and for hypoglycemics like me (which I could probably cure with some diet changes; sigh. Wish I were fonder of healthy foods) Even if this is slow and pricey, it does sound fairly good!
This sounds like a nice meter.
