I sent for this product because l was diagnosed as pre-diabetlic in 2019, just before covid. Since then l have not been called for a blood test even though l have high blood pressure. I have been feeling a bit strange for while and could not get a diabetic check. I saw this on Amazon, l was worried and desperate so l decided to give it a go. I am so glad l did! The test was difficult to do at first but eventually l got the hang of it. The results were very quick and very accurate. The results made me change my lifestyle as it turned out that l was on the verge of being a diabetic. So thank you so much. I am really glad l bought this product. I will use it to keep an eye on my blood sugar always now and deal with it myself as l can’t seem to be able to see a doctor these days.

Unlike some other reviewers my device had high repeatability. that is repeated tests came out the same.

I also came close to a high end blood sugar monitor.

However do not expect blood lab accuracy. The European standard is only plus or minus 15%. And, this device would appear to come withing that.
It’s very easy to use.
Things I didn’t like:
No app and only stores the last four readings.
No ability to add a note or icon such as fasting, before a meal, after a meal.

The lancettes are just sharp fine wire not a ‘sharpened lancette’. However they are the same size as Bauer’s as used in the Contour Nextdevices and those are properly sharpened lancettes which have a very low pain level.

A higher end device only costs some 10.00 more. And, such a device comes with Bluetooth syc. and app. bigger memory and the ability to make comments.

So in summary this is a very good basic device and it can be relied upon. It is not my preferred choice.

Ordered this as I wanted to check my blood glucose levels. Arrived the next day. Instructions were really clear and easy to follow, had it up and running in less than 10 minutes. Before buying this I read lots of reviews on different machines, this seemed to have the least reviews complaining of inaccuracies. I can’t comment on that as I do not have anything to compare it to. However I tested 7.4 an hour or so after eating and my Daughter tested 5.5. I didn’t keep testing and testing. The lancet is quick, easy and painless! The machine is really easy to use and the carry case has just enough room to put everything in. Will use this daily to keep an eye on my levels and see how it pans out but overall really pleased with this kit and note I can get replacement lancets and strips for approx 12.

I bought this via Amazon and my order came the next day, so delivery was very fast. The items were well packaged and from the moment I opened them, it was clear that the SafeAQ was a quality product from a company that provides excellent customer service and really values customer satisfaction. There are very clear instructions on the quick guide, in the user manual and even on the box! Instructions are provided in words and in pictures and they are very easy to follow. I bought the red Sinocare version some years ago and it’s never let me down. It’s easy to use and works perfectly every time. I bought the upgraded version because I want to be able to keep one pouch at home and one in my handbag so that if I go hypo when I’m out, people will hopefully find it in my bag, test my blood sugar and give me a glucose drink ( I’ve put the quick guide in the pouch) therefore avoiding an unnecessary a trip to the hospital. I would highly recommend both the product and the company.

I have just been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes & so I brought the Sinocare Blood Glucose Meter so that I could keep an eye on my blood sugar on a daily basis. I have found it to be very accurate based on using it just after having blood tests & got the same results. It’s fairly easy to use, I would say it took me a couple of times to get used to doing it but now I have been using it for 3/4wks it’s second nature. I have found that I have to have the pen set on 6 to get a gd bleed but I guess it will vary depending on the individual. The complaint I do have is it wasn’t clear when I purchased it that you need Control Solution so you can set up and test the device before you use it. Otherwise I am extremely pleased with it and would recommend it.

I’ve not previously used a blood sugar monitor but, having been diagnosed as pre-diabetic, I need to keep an eye on improvements resulting from diet changes and weight loss. I chose this Sinocare Safe AQ one as it appeared easier to use than others – and, in practice, this has proved to be the case.

The quick-start instructions and the more-detailed user manual were easy to understand and I was able to make my first blood test within minutes of opening the pack. A little trial and error was required to find the optimum setting for drawing sufficient blood from a finger, but it was a painless process and the result was rapidly announced on the Smart Meter.

I had forgotten to buy some control solution (since ordered) to check that the device was correctly calibrated, so – although the results seemed to be in the correct range, I can’t yet be sure of their accuracy.

The voice reminder and spoken results seemed useful, but were probably an unnecessary extra because the results were clearly displayed in large letters on the meter and there is a memory function too should you need to double-check.

The kit was well presented in a box containing the meter, lancing device, manuals and, surprisingly, two AAA batteries (which the description specifically states are not included!). The meter, lancing pen and batteries were in a little zipped storage bag – which would have been significantly more useful as a carrying bag if it had been larger and capable of holding a box of lancets and one tub of test strips too. Annoyingly, the supplied lancets and test strips have to be carried separately.

Overall, however, this Chinese-made kit appears to be made up of good-quality equipment that will enable me to monitor my blood sugar levels quickly, easily and painlessly.
