5.0 out of 5 stars excellent as a backup meter, February 16, 2007

My main meter is a FreeStyle Flash, but I wanted an inexpensive, accurate meter I could keep in my desk drawer. The Ultra Mini, costing anywhere from $25 (list) to $15 (various places online) fills the bill. It's not really "mini", being long and narrow, almost twice the size of my Flash, but it's a lot smaller than many other meters. It doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, just the basics. No beeps, no computer interface; I don't need that for a backup anyway. What it does well is to give me an accurate reading. The test strips fill up fast, the sample needed is small,and you get readings in about 6 seconds on a nice, large display. I tested it against my Flash, and the readings were very close. (Full disclosure: I don't use the included lancet device, but a Bayer Vaculance that gives me great results when I test on my arm.)

You might want more information from your main meter, but as a desk-drawer convenience, this one is hard to beat.

1.0 out of 5 stars Accuracy ? Very questionable., May 1, 2010

I've been using this brand to try and establish a no-carb diet. The doctors office gives them out free so I thought why not use it. Well, three different meters later I'm looking for another brand. After following all the instructions and even calling the mfg twice I get readings of 160, 230, 140 and 90 all on the same hand with in a few seconds of each test. Next day I get 140, 170. A few days later 125, 156. I'm lucky it's type 2. If I were using insulin I would be in the nut house.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything it claims to be, September 6, 2008
Self glucose monitoring devices have been around for years and they are state of the art at this point. All scientific reviews state that they are extremely reliable and accurate, the only fault is human error. This unit is so nearly perfect and easy to use even most humans would be hard put to mess it up. My husband was in a position that he needed to monitor his blood sugars frequently for a while to see if he was prediabetic as the lab got an elevated reading and he has diabetes in his family. He was anxious and concerned when I ordered the unit and the short wait for delivery ended up to be the hardest part of it. Upon its arrival he read the quick start guide, learned how to load and cock the lancet unit, turn on the unit by inserting the test strip, calibrate it to the strips, stick himself, and get the tiny drop of blood onto the already loaded test strip. He had his results in 5 seconds. In just a few tests the whole procedure took him about half a minute. And much to his... Read more
