Just purchased this device. Followed instructions for setting up first test. When I inserted the Calibration key, as instructed, it dislodged the internal connection. The device is now inoperable. Cheap, cheap, cheap....not worth the money.

This gizmo is a costly dud. The first set of test strips let me use it successfully twice. The machine insisted the rest of the strips had passed the expiration date. They had not. Then the last strip worked. I must have made a mistake, I thought, so I stupidly bought another $25 box of test strips. Now, the machine simply rejects the lot number which you must dial in. It will not accept even one of the new test strips. I emailed the company's "customer service" department. They eventually gave me a refund for the second box of strips.
Do not even think about buying this thing.

These should be worked on and set up for easy use. You waste a lot of money trying to get it exactly right... the strip that is inserted is a pain does not connect all the time and then you have to put in a new one .. it is not working with my computer the way it should.. it just quit working-- and now does not recognize it at all. It has been trouble from the word go.. out of 6 strips 2 worked like it said it should. Costly and is Cheaply made with software that does not deliver.
 Steep learning curve but accurate. Works fine for me. July 2, 2006

The machine works fine, but a lay person may have trouble poking finger and squeezing a LARGE drop of blood onto the strip to make it work. Take practice. It works similar to a glucometer used to check blood sugar for diabetes except it requires a much bigger drop of blood and the strips are much more expensive. Another caveat is it only gives you the TOTAL cholesterol level. If you have cholesterol checked at doctor's office, you usually get total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL, and LDL levels.

IT TOOK A LOSS OF MONEY ON STRIPS, UNTIL I LEARNED HOW TO DO IT WITHOUT USING MORE THAN ONE AT A TIME. I LIKE THE MACHINE. I HAVE HAD GOOD LUCK WITH IT.
