Working well. Quick result.

Doesn’t work at all. Watched a YouTube vides from the company. Followed instructions exactly and nothing. Stuck on password on screen. Waste of money

I am a veteran lab/chemist 20+ years, now modeller, worked with many lab instruments (just to show some merit in this review), and this kit is quite typical for lab use. Without having an actual calibration sample to test with, the next best thing I did was compare with NHS lab results, and they were within acceptable range (I measured 368umol UA, the lab was 360umol). If you read the description, results may differ by 20%, which is very typical for lab equipment, especially equipment which use test strips. Ensure you get enough blood from pricking your finger, and the test strip does a great job of taking a sample of your blood. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to monitor UA, and the glucose is useful as well, but maybe a continuous glucose monitor might be better. Set your expectations as per note above and you won't be disappointed. I've learned a lot about my body using this kit.

This test is very good. There are negative reviews which clearly show the user didn’t understand how to use the test. Make sure you add the blood to the side of the test trip not the bottom. I was worried about accuracy so I took a blood test immediately after a lab test. It was out by about 20 points which for a home test is not bad. My rheumatologist decided to lower the frequency of my meds as my UA was below 200. After a couple of days I decided to take a test to see what had happened and noticed my blood UA had shot up to 410 which is enough to cause a gout attack. I immediately returned to my normal frequency and will go back to see my specialist. Thank goodness I had the ability to keep an eye on things and act before it got bad.

This has been a very useful monitor to keep track of blood glucose and uric acid levels. Compared to other devices in the family it gives a consistently accurate ready. The instructions were a little unclear at first hence the reduced rating. For the occasional testing they are used for the case is handy to keep them in. I think they have offered a good value for money reassurance in their results.

Useful

Looks like an average piece of equipment. Not yet able to say about accuracy (how real the measurements are) as I need to test it against a medical grade test (next time on my GP). BUT definitely NOT precise. As per attached pictures will give different measurements in 1 minute interval for same blood sample. Do I need to consume 3 testing blades every time I'm checking my Uric Acid level? Second review after 1 month of use : Need to use 2-3 test strips at the time to have an average idea of Uric Acid level. That mean twice - triple the price. As per pictures, in one minute interval will give 3 very different values . Did use the calibrating stick which is also a marketing scam : they will make sure you don't use test stripes from other companies.

I am diabetic and get free glucose testing kit. I bought a Sinocare monitor with both glucose and uric acid monitoring after developing symptoms of gout and I only have to stab myself once to test both at once. I'm very happy with this product and highly recommend this kit if you need to know where you are when making changes to address the issues, this is perfect.
