The unit I received when I placed my order was marked "not for resale", and the batteries in it were dead. If I had it to do over again I would have purchased it from another source.

The device is very feature-rich, small, and mostly easy to use. On the device itself, the only complaint I have so far is that you have to really push the buttons in very deeply. Not a major issue, but I could see how maybe a person without a lot of dexterity might find it a small challenge. The little case things get stored in is nicely designed. The package box was a little banged up when I removed it from the shipping box (not damage done in transit; it just looked like the box had been stored without much protection). But compared to the double-the-price for the same "perfect box" item at CVS, I was happy to get the banged-up box version. Everything inside was pristine, which is all that matters.

Regarding the written instructions: While the instruction book is rich with information and is well-written, it could be laid out better, especially with the small-format format. Also, it would be nice to have one page, early on that speaks to the first-time user who hasn't received any instruction. Something that says: "How to do your first reading": 1) Buy/get test strips; 2) code the reader with one new strip; 3) lance finger; 3) apply blood to strip; 4) enter journal information into the device." It sounds so basic, but since nobody taught me anything about how to do this stuff, it took me a while to figure out those steps and their order.

This is probably the best blood glucose meter on the market. It has a lot of nice features, that many people probably aren't aware of, but are useful for diabetics who are trying hard to control their disease. I've owned and used several other brands and this make and model is the best to my knowledge. It has an optional software package that allows one to export all of your stored data into Excel or Word for further editing, plotting, etc. A good, versatile, low-cost meter with a lot of capabilities.
