Summary: Freestyle Flash-Great for kids
Comment: This is the best glucometer we have tried. I have tried One Touch, One Touch Ultra, BD, Bayer, and many more. This is the one that has the features that I have been complaining about the others not having. I test my son a lot at night. This has, not only a back light, but also a little light by the strip so you can see your blood sample without turning on the light. As soon as the blood sample is on the strip the back light turns on. Genius! Great for movie theatres, dark car, etc. I used to have to carry a flash light. Nice small size that fits nicely into your palm. The others often slipped out of my hand. I have nothing bad to say about this product.

Summary: Glucose monitoring
Comment: This product was purchased for my recently-diagnosed diabetic dog. The response from the FreeStyle Flash glucose monitor is very quick (~7 seconds) and the system needs only the smallest drop of blood to obtain an accurate reading. The large, bright backlit display makes reading the results very easy. We use the dog's ear to obtain the blood and with such a minor stick from the lancet, he doesn't mind the procedure.

We tested its reliability and validity on humans and found the system to be quite sufficient for clinical practice. The instructions were clear, concise and comprehensive. I really liked the inclusion of 10 strips and 10 lancing devices, the compact carrying case, and the lithium batteries - the product was ready to use upon unpacking the box.

This has been a great product and given that our veterinarian charges $15.00 to obtain a single blood sugar reading, has more than paid for itself. It's accurate, simple to use, small in size and comes with all necessary accessories. By the way, the price was great through Amazon and standard shipping took 5 business days!
