One Touch UltraMini System Diabetes Kit - 1 Blue Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We haven't used it yet, but it was shipped promptly and looks like a neat little kit. Despite the product description, control solution is NOT included. The customer service rep told us they stopped including it in the kit because the control solution tended to go out of date occasionally (read that as the shelf life of the control solution limited the shelf life of the kit). So, you might want to order the control solution, too. Also, if color's important, you might want to double-check with the vendor, because our vendor informed us that there was only one type of Ultra Mini -- ours was black (which was fine with us -- we just ordered the blue because it was the least expensive one). He/she might not know that they come in colors, or the kits only come in black -- who knows? It comes in a little black zip-up case that includes their little lancing device and a little plastic vial for the strips -- with lancets and strips (10 ea) -- and measures about 3" x 5.5" x 1.5" filled. The instructions are very precise, and sampling technique seems to be very important, so I can understand why some folks could get frustrated. We'll have to see how the results look, but it seems to be well made, and the size is convenient -- and ours has the 500 reading memory.
As for what test strips to use -- the instructions just mention One Touch Ultra, and that only indirectly. There's no bold print or subsection saying USE ONLY XZY STRIPS. If you plan to order a supply of strips, you might want to check what your insurance covers, first -- if that's a factor. If you have any specific questions about test strip compatibility, you might want to phone the OneTouch Cust. Service # at 1-800-227-8862.
