Ascensia Contour Blood Glucose Monitoring System
08/01/2008
Strength
Great quality, compact, easy to setup & use, reasonable accuracy, little blood drawing
Weakness
None
The Ascensia Contour Blood Glucose Monitoring system has proven with reasonable accuracy as I would have expected. The unit has everything you need to start with, even came with 10 FREE strips ready to use. The unit uses a very little blood for analysis and you get the result reading within a few second.
