Diabetes Test Kit, Blood Sugar Tester with Voice Reminder and Light Warning Blood Glucose Monitor with Test Strips x 50 and Lancet x 50, Sinocare Safe AQ Voice Glucometer -in mmol/L

Accurate and compact reliable testing kit, very easy to use and comes with everything you need in one package, easy to read and battery life is very good, control are is to use and build quality top notch. Overall can't fault it, an excellent solution for control and keeping tabs on blood sugar levels. The device to prick finger is easy to use and painless and very to give you the reading.

Good quality and a decent price. The kit has the monitor, lance and tester sticks - everything you need to test your blood glucose levels.

I bought this kit due to the lack of routine Hb1aC testing in the UK as a result of Covid 19 outbreak and I needed to monitor glucose levels so that I could safely return to work in the NHS. Plus points: 1. It arrived quickly 2. It is easy to use- and it is nice to be able to dial up and down the depth to which the lancet penetrates 3. I rather like the voice which tells me the reading, even though it is an unecessary feature for me! 4. Replacement lancets and test strips are reasonably priced- this really is worth considering carefully. Negative points: 1. It only has a memory store for last 10 results and does not have a date and time tag attached to them. So if you need to record readings routinely over a period of time, you will have to write them down somewhere. That was not really a problem for me, I intend only to do random measures now that my blood has stabilised. But you get what you pay for, and this suits me just fine to write down results with dates and times (and details about time of last meal etc). 2. Very occasionally when I press the lancet release thingy it doesn't seem to work, I am pretty sure this is user error though, I am quite a cack-handed sort of person! All in all, i would recommend this product and i am quite satisfied, it does the job and it will carry on doing the job cheaply for me because the lancets and strips are good value.

Value for money. Easy to use

I've not previously used a blood sugar monitor but, having been diagnosed as pre-diabetic, I need to keep an eye on improvements resulting from diet changes and weight loss. I chose this Sinocare Safe AQ one as it appeared easier to use than others - and, in practice, this has proved to be the case. The quick-start instructions and the more-detailed user manual were easy to understand and I was able to make my first blood test within minutes of opening the pack. A little trial and error was required to find the optimum setting for drawing sufficient blood from a finger, but it was a painless process and the result was rapidly announced on the Smart Meter. I had forgotten to buy some control solution (since ordered) to check that the device was correctly calibrated, so - although the results seemed to be in the correct range, I can't yet be sure of their accuracy. The voice reminder and spoken results seemed useful, but were probably an unnecessary extra because the results were clearly displayed in large letters on the meter and there is a memory function too should you need to double-check. The kit was well presented in a box containing the meter, lancing device, manuals and, surprisingly, two AAA batteries (which the description specifically states are not included!). The meter, lancing pen and batteries were in a little zipped storage bag - which would have been significantly more useful as a carrying bag if it had been larger and capable of holding a box of lancets and one tub of test strips too. Annoyingly, the supplied lancets and test strips have to be carried separately. Overall, however, this Chinese-made kit appears to be made up of good-quality equipment that will enable me to monitor my blood sugar levels quickly, easily and painlessly.

Easy to use. Cannot say how accurate it is but it gives a baseline indication. Set up and use is a doddle.

I had a blood sugar monitor a few years ago which was big and cumbersome and I stopped using it cos it was a pain. This one is amazing. it's tiny, fits in a case about 10cm by 15cm and is so simple to use. The instructions could be better. they appear on a folded sheet which when unfolded shows you the steps in the wrong order. So just keep an eye on the numbers of the steps to make sure you are doing it in the right sequence. Also there are diagrams, but these werent so clear cos in parts they use a grey shading that graduates out to white which is difficult for older eyes to read. At first I thought it wasnt working cos i couldnt prime the lancet to prick my finger at all. It took me a few minutes to work out the steps. Clearer instructions and diagrams would be useful. Once you've worked out the steps you will be fine cos it's actually very simple. The kit comes with little pots of a) lances and b) blood-reading strips. There is room in the case for one pot held under an elastic band. I put my pot of strips there cos they are delicate. There was no 2nd elastic band for the lances so I put a few in the mesh compartment on the right. The individual lances are protected with a blue cover and cap so they will survive bumping about in the mesh. But a redesign of the case would let you store a pot of 50 lances and 50 strips, being protected, at no risk of falling out, and being used up at the same rate so it's obvious when to reorder. This unit is very good value and really simple to use. So I would recommend it.

So this is very good quality and easy to use; but I was concerned about reliability. i checked my sugar level. it showed 5.1 then a minute later I checked again from same finger and it showed 5.3. I am now concerned about reliability of this machine.

Tested compared with manual laboratory test. Both results are same for same day and almost same time.

The machine worked one time and then stopped working. I shared multiple videos with Sinocare team, but they were in no mood to replace it. They kept on giving me the same excuse that I am not applying the blood properly on the strip. I have been using sugar test machine since more than 2 years and now they are telling me that I am not applying the blood properly. What a joke!

Always inaccurate not reliable reading. Blood readings are always shown as low and require more blood than any other test devices.
