I have been using this medicine chest for 7 or 8 years. I take a plethora of vitamins and supplements, including the big pills like fish oil. I have never had a problem with all my pills fitting. There is a smaller version of this product, which also has removable sections, and my pills would not fit in that one.

Each morning, I pull that day's section and take it to work with me. After a number of years, I noticed that some of the "doors" on my original chest didn't click closed and hold as securely as they did--sometimes a door would pop open and spill in my purse--not a big deal to scoop up 4 or 5 pills. Nevertheless, I purchased another. If I am traveling, I take out the days I don't need and leave the rest in the tray, then put the entire tray in a ziplock bag.

I found the advantage to having 2 units was that I didn't have to fill as often (which I hate to do--not a big deal to most people, just one of those chores I don't like doing). I've considered purchasing a 3rd and probably will at some point.

I cannot find this exact product anywhere but on Amazon. I purchased my original years ago in a drugstore, probably Rite-Aid, but have never found it since. I LOVE the convenience.

As of 2007, after 2 years of testing, I now prefer the large Medi-Chest. Nothing has broken on any of the 5 units and the removable daily case is great for making day trips or going out hunting, fishing canoing, or golfing.

These have met the test! They still snap shut tightly and no compartments have lost their tops due to stress fatigue from opening and closing them.

Just as importantly, I can carry my plethora of cardiac, kidney, prostate and arthritis medications in one daily container when I go golfing, fishing, hunting or canoeing. If a compartment does just happen to open, it sure beats trying to pick up a week's worth of meds from the golf course and put them back in the right compartments!

1.0 out of 5 stars Cheap, cheap, cheap! Doesn't deserve a star, June 16, 2008

I bought two of these in late April based on the five-star review. They hold a ton of meds, BUT, the covers to the individual compartments break EASILY. Within the first week of use, a cover on both mine and my daughter's broke as we were lifting the individual trays out. We are currently using one medi-chest as a replacement for the other as the covers continue to break--no matter how carefully we handle them. At this rate, we are hoping one of them can be used for a few months while we search for a better case for our meds!!
