One Touch Ultra Mini Blood Glucose Monitor Review Summary

If you suffer from diabetes, nobody has to tell you how unpleasant it can be to have to check your blood glucose levels. Our reviewers say that the One Touch Ultra Mini at least makes it much more convenient and less painful. How? Well first of all, says one reviewer “you don’t always have to use the tips of your fingers. You can use your forearm or around the finger.” Not only that, but the One Touch Ultra Mini requires less blood than other blood sugar monitors. But perhaps the real attraction of the One Touch Ultra Mini glucometer is that it’s so compact that it “it fits into the smallest purse or a pocket”. As a nice bonus, the Ultra Mini comes in several different colors “so if you feel like matching it to your outfit, you could even do that”. Bottom line, this blood glucose monitor is a hit with our reviewers.

Simplest, quickest, easiest, blood glucose monitor to use there is.  This very reasonably priced tool makes monitoring quick and easy wherever you are.  It packs well with the included case that comes with the monitor, has a space for your test strips, and comes with a mini stilet. 

Just as with the more expensive One Touch models, this mini model gives results in 5 seconds, and has a glucose reading recall, should you need to recall you figures for assessment.  The major selling point of this model, it's size, makes it the premier monitor for traveling, or having in your glove box for just...

THIS IS SUCH A GREAT PRODUCT FOR ANYONE WHO HAS TO CHECK THERE BLOOD SUGAR. IT IS A SMALL VERSION OF THE BIGGER ONE BUT WORKS JUST THE SAME AND COMES IN 4 DIFFERENT COLORS SILVER, PINK, BLACK, AND GREEN. VERY EASY TO USE. COMES WITH A CARRYING BAG AND A BOOK TO RECORD YOUR RESULTS, EVEN HOLD YOU RESULTS IN THE METER.

I RECOMMEND FOR ANYONE THAT DOES NOT LIKE CARRYING AROUND A BIG BULKY METER TRY THIS ONE IT TAKES UP LESS ROOM.

I got this for my mother- and I must say, i've never seen her happier to use a prouct such as this! It's easy to use, and it doesn't involve too much pain. The greatest thing is- you don't always have to use the tips of your fingers. You can use your forearm or around the finger. With only a little blood needed, you can see your results in no time!

This is a good addition to the One Touch family of meters.  This meter uses the standard test strips, it is easy to test, requires very little blood for the sample, and it is compact and fits everywhere.  This meter is available in 4 colors.  The only drawback is that there is no port to connect the cable to the meter for loading information into a computer.

This new meter in the One Touch lineup is the smallest I've ever seen. It only requires a tiny blood sample and gives you results in 5 seconds - no coding required. It fits in the smallest purse or a pocket - great for having with you at all times. Available in several nice colors, with new ones coming soon as well - so if you feel like matching it to your outfit, you could even do that ;-) Quick, practiacally painless and stylish - now if only the strips were cheaper ;-)

 This moniter is very easy to set-up and use. It seems to be very accurate. It is conveinant to take with you. The test strips are a little expensive to buy but all in all it is a good product. The mete it self isn't expensive. I like my meter very much.

At the doctor's suggestion to monitor my blood glucose on a regular basis due to medications/family history of diabetes/current weight (too high)...I decided to pop into the local pharmacy to see what they had. What they had was shelf after shelf of blood glucose monitoring systems...which to choose?....which would be best for me? So many choices, so little time! Soooo...I did what I did when I chose my blood-pressure monitor...I chose the most attractive (and pink) :-D

The OneTouch® Ultra Mini was, obviously, my choice...hey...it comes in PINK!

Well, not only is mine pink, but it's incredibly...

 I have used various types of glucometers and this one has been the greatest one yet.  It is easy enough to use and small enough to carry in your pocket or purse.  I would recommend this to anybody.  It come with its own case with room to carry strips and lancets.

Okay so everyone knows testing your blood sugar is no fun.  Period.  But if your like me (I am diabetic) you know it's something you have to do to stay healthy.  I found that when I first found out I wsa diabetic I never tested because it was painful to poke my fingers over and over again.  It was frustrating when I would get some blood on the test strip but it was not enough.  I knew it was bad for my health not to test but I just could not bring myself to do it.  Then I saw a the one touch ultra mini meter advertised on T.V.  I have to admit that what first caught my eye was the fact that...

The One Touch Ultra Mini Blood Glucose Monitor is a very good monitor.  Nice compact size doesn't take up much room in a handbag.  You can discreetly test yourself without having to lay out  a lot of artillery.   It doesn't require much of a blood sample and comes with a test nozzle for use in obtaining forearm samples but it usually is less accurate than a fingertip.  You can obtain software for about $30 that allows you to upload your readings into the computer and you can generate reports that show your trends on a daily, weekly, monthly, etc. basis. 

You can also print these reports...
