Could be improved

Pros: test strip drums are convenient, docked lancet is convenient
Cons: test strip does not stick out far enough.
"I like having the lancet docked, I like the drums for the test strip. What could be improved is the test strip is difficult to get the blood drop to. I find that I need a larger drop so I can make sure to get the droplet on the test strip. It could be improved if the strip stuck out a little more. It's difficult to get to it."

"I've compared this Accu-Check meter and One-Touch to a lab test all taken at the same time. The one touch runs 20 points high. I recommend this meter for accuracy within 2 points"
