Accu-Chek Guide Me Glucose Monitor Kit for Diabetic Blood Sugar Testing: Guide Me Meter, Softclix Lancing Device, and 10 Softclix Lancets

Great product for the price

This was a great extra product for me to have for my diabetic supplies.

Good product

Nice easy to use bluetooth device that can be used with a recommended blood sugar logging app, but there are accessory concerns!Please know that there is no lancing device or lancets in the kit! While the product image on the site shows all of the kit items, I incorrectly assumed that the box contained the lancing device and lancets. 😳 You need to buy those items separately. There are plenty of test strips, however.Another disappointment is that the carrying/travel case is very flimsy. The case is spacious but offers very little protection from accidental drops. I found an older cushioned carrying case for the meter and accessories and plan to throw the one that came in the kit away.In conclusion, with the kit costing over $100, a cushioned accessory carrying/travel case should be included. Also, it would be a good idea if the Amazon site expressly mentions that the lancing device and lancets are sold separately for this kit.

Due to the generosity of Amazon, I tried to return this order and reorder a higher priced meter, Amazon just refunded and said keep it. I had already ordered the higher priced meter, so now I have one of each version meter from ACCU-CHEK, as for the meter performance, I have two other cheap MFG glucose meters, I was very disappointed in the readings from these meters, not only did they never agree with each other, testing several times in a row with the same sample source resulted in wildly different results, now with 2 ACCU-CHEK meters the results on both meters agree with each other 100% or sometimes with in 1 or 2 points difference, I'm a retired engineer, my whole carrier has been dealing with exact results when testing equipment, this tells me I can trust the results from the ACCU-CHEK meters. I should have done my research before I bought the first cheap meters. the ACCU-CHEK meters deserve the outstanding reviews I have read, and believe me, I'm an expert when dealing with instrumentation.

This is a newer version of the meter I have used for years. THIS IS TRULY SIMPLE! Set up is already done for you. Batteries are in, the date and time have already been entered. The meter gives quicker results after the finger prick. The meter is even lighter weight.than the one I used for over ten years

I like nothing about this product. I have been a type 2 diabetic for 40 years and could almost test my blood sugar blindfolded until I bought the Accu-Chek. I just spent 3 weeks in the hospital and they checked my sugar about 4 times a day. Like my equipment at home, theirs was very simple. When I got released from the hospital I decided to modernize my test equipment so bought the Acc-Chek. First of all the instructions are like asking a PHD in physics from China to write a multi-page instruction booklet on how to use a hammer or a screwdriver. Why? I end up with test results about one in four attempts.

Good
