DSSPrecision Xtra Blood Glucose Meter Kit, Results in 5 seconds, Strips Not Included (1 Kit)

Replaced an old version of this same meter that was 12 years old and finally died, and wanted the same one since I had a lot of strips leftover.. this works great, love the beep when it has enough blood and the same strips worked perfectly in this one. couldn't be happier!

My GF & I did a week long water fast. It was neat watching our Glucose numbers fall daily as our Ketones went up. She is a nurse and would also test her Glucose at work - very similar numbers to the Precision Xtra. Now we are on a keto diet and check our numbers a couple of times per week. The meter is smaller than I thought, but easy to read. If you don't want to use any of its special features, it is easy to use. Just prep your lancing device, CAREFULLY tear open a test strip (try not to bend it), when you insert the strip into the meter it will turn on automatically, lance your finger, give your finger a little squeeze to allow the end of the test strip to suck up enough blood to fill the tiny reservoir. When the meter beeps, it has enough blood and starts the test. After a few seconds, your number (Glucose, or Ketones) is displayed. Pull the used test strip out, and the meter turns itself off again. This box came with lots of instructions, a small zippered case, and a lancing device. I don't think it came with any test strips or lancets (needles), but I like to get the 33 gauge tiny ones anyway, and it is good to get the fresh test strips. So far, I haven't had any errors. Tip: take care of your test strips and be sure not to bend them too much - it can mess them up.

Accurate reading. I checked the reading against 3 other brands. The difference is just 5 points apart, which is negligible.

Life change if you are type 1 diabetic this is must have item!!!!

3 out of 10 test strips didn’t work. Nice meter

This is an amazing little meter! Depending on which strip you use; it can give you the glucose reading, and keytone reading. It can be used for people or ( and) pets. My vet recommended i get one for my cat.

My very old Blood Glucose Meter (25+ years) finally died. I had just received a refill of my Rx for Glucose Test Strips and now needed a new meter. Talked to the Pharmacists and was told many meters require different Glucose Test Strips. Found this meter that uses the Strips I have. Meter is smaller than my last one (technology) and is very easy to use. The readings seem accurate and are easy to read. Did have a small problem getting the settings (Date, Time, Etc) in but that was my problem and Customer Service walked me through it quickly. Would recommend.

Works great for measuring dietary ketosis
