Freestyle Lite BITES 
I compared descriptions & selling points of several meters and chose this one a week ago rather than picking another Accu-chek. BIG mistake. What a load of bull. Almost pain-free testing??? NOT true!!! Lancet device harder to use and pricking finger is much more painful, no matter what setting you set it on. As far as less blood needed to test---NOT true. Have gotten a number of error messages despite big drop of blood on finger. (And so what if it needed less blood when lancet causes you to bleed a lot more.) And the test strips are tiny, hard to get out of bottle because they stick together, and I have had several fall on floor trying to get just one out of bottle. If not for (normal) expense of test strips I'd throw darn thing away----but when bottle of test strips is gone so will the darn gadget. Back to using Accu-check---have already gone back to using my old Accu-chek lancet device anyway. SURPRISE!!! I DON'T recommend this meter.
Freestyle Lite 
My first blood glucose monitor was the old Freestyle monitor which was at the time the only monitor on the market that allowed alternate site testing. The Freestyle was very operator friendly and did require a very small blood sample. I loved this monitor.
The Freestyle Lite is just as good with the added benefit that the test srtips do not have to be coded.
This is a great blod glucose monitor for those of use that prefer to do alternate site testing.
