Great Product by .. #1 (Medina, Ohio)
I've had this meter for over two year. It is very accurate. Had it checked at hospital & Dr. office. Very easy to use and with the software results can be downloaded to your PC. Print a report and take to your next check-up. I like it much better than Accu-Chek.

Standard Meter by .. Chicago Gal (Chicago Area)
I'm still looking for a more painfree meter. Started with this meter and find I have to have the needle setting quite high to get the blood drop. Too painful for me.

50% code 24 strips bad. Out of 550 bad strips lifescan would replace 100 by .. GroundStar (Battle Mountain, NV, USA)
After using code 24 strips for 5 weeks and getting invalid results. Being low and strips not showing a low. Taking too much insulan due to invalid results causing lows. Did 14 test solution tests with only 50% within range all others invalid. Lifescan would only replace 100 strips. 1 box out of 11 they would replace. Tossed them in the trash and went to a different company

Wonderful Meter! by .. N. Terrell (KY)
I began testing on a meter that took 40 seconds to display results, so I was glad to find a OneTouch Ultra that took only 5 seconds. I switched to the Ultra 2 about 9 months ago, and I love it.




The main reason I switched was for the backlight. Silly, I know, but it makes such a difference. Also, you can add comments to your readings or flag them as before or after meals. I like the ability to check my averages based on all results, before meal results, or after meal results. The up/down buttons are helpful, too. No more scrolling all the way through if you accidentally skip over your number when coding the meter.



The OneTouch Ultra 2 isn't hard to use or full of extras that are useless. It seems to be just the right combination of helpful features that help keep tighter control.

Monitor Ultra by .. M. Smilie (Fort Collins Co)
Very good monitor, though a bit klutzy at times regarding getting the strips into the slot, and getting sufficient blood to avoid wasting a test strip at nearly a buck apiece. The test strips are another story-getting them out of the bottle without spilling them, and getting them into place, especially if you forgot before doing the lancet--a pain the posterior to say the least!
