2.0 out of 5 stars Buyer Beware!, February 19, 2009

This review is from: CholesTrak HDL and Total Cholesterol Home Testing Kit (Health and Beauty)

I carefully followed the directions for the Total Cholesterol test and everything happened as described in the directions. I do not know if the result was accurate; however, it worked as expected. I then did the same for the HDL test; however, this test must have been defective as neither of the two indicator circles or the measured strip ever showed any color. Yes, I pulled the tab all the way out and could see the full arrow exactly as on the total cholesterol test. I then called the support number listed for any problems. I was directed to voicemail during their stated business hours and left a message. I have yet to receive a call back, and do not expect one. I gave it two stars because the one test did work as expected.

1.0 out of 5 stars absolute garbage, June 28, 2011

(REAL NAME)   

Test results are not at all consistant with lab results taken the same day...a big total cholesterol difference of 65 mg/dl. That represented a 65% variance.
Three home tests were done and all were wildly inconsistant. Tried another brand of home test (First Check) that appeared to just have a different name...same test device as Cholestrak....again wildly divergent results. Can't believe these are FDA approved.

1.0 out of 5 stars Incomplete, Inaccurate. Don't waste your time or money!!!, November 2, 2011

This review is from: CholesTrak HDL and Total Cholesterol Home Testing Kit (Health and Beauty)

I purchased this home test and the HDL test did not work, just as someone else had stated. I followed directions carefully and a blue line never appeared. I took the Total Cholesterol test and that worked but only to discover that my kit did not have a Total Cholesterol Conversion Chart inside, only 2 HDL charts. Never again will I buy such a piece of garbage. Their instructions say the customer service help line opens at 8am so I called to speak with a representative who could provide me with conversion only to get an answering machine. This company and this product are a complete sham. Don't waste your time or money!
