Accu-Chek Guide Me Meter

I've been using the Accu-Chek Guide Me for a few weeks now and I'm very impressed. It's incredibly easy to use—just a quick swipe for the strip and a tiny blood sample. The reading is fast (under 4 seconds!), and the large, clear display is a huge plus for seeing my results quickly. It seems very accurate and consistent, which gives me great confidence in my daily monitoring. Just remember: this is the Meter Only, so you must purchase the Accu-Chek Guide test strips separately. Highly recommended

Best one I ever had. Hard case easy to use on the road. All components stay in sized compartments

A great buy I have one in my car and one in my bedroom. This meter is reasonable and durable. Have used one of these for many years and recommended to friends and family.

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.

I have had great luck with Roche products. For years I used the Aviva Plus meters with few problems and great manufacturer support. When they were discontinued my insurance suggested another meter. I ordered one and it did not support alternate site testing. I contacted Roche and found this Guide Me meter does support AST, but you do have to contact the manufacturer to receive an AST cap for the lancing device. They supply it at no cost, but you have to wait a few days for it to arrive. The lancing device is the same “Softclix” as the Aviva Plus meter. The meter is pretty easy to use, but does seem to time out if I take too long to get a blood sample. The required sample size is very small. I saw that some other reviews mentioned the hard sided plastic case. I did not like it either after struggling to open it and finding it was upside down, and spilling the contents when I finally got it to open. I cured that problem by using a silver metallic marker to write “OVER” on the bottom. After using it for a few days I became accustomed to it and actually ordered another meter BECAUSE it included the case. I prefer the older larger test strips and their container because my 73 year old hands don’t have the dexterity to easily handle the smaller strips and containers. But I do see the advantage of the much smaller case.

Excelente

Only needs small drop of blood. Got to replace my 10+ year old gym that was no longer providing accurate results.

2nd meter I've received in just over a month. The first one after 2 weeks would only show errors, I contacted Amazon and the seller was nice enough to send me another and I received it yesterday. Just used and still giving me errors!! I'm done with this brand and will not buy another. If this site would allow me not to give any stars I would, but I can't submit without giving it at least one. It's now been over 2 weeks and I haven't been able to check my sugar
