We needed something for my dad after his GP put him on a new regime and he was struggling to keep track of his readings. I compared three other places first, mostly on price and whether they had a proper helpline. This one came out ahead on both, with a real person answering the phone within a couple of minutes and the paperwork sorted in one go. Dad is much happier now.
Read moreI bought the glucose meter starter kit to keep an eye on my readings at home. It does the job and the readings look right. The price is higher than the chemist's own brand though, and the returns form was a bit of a faff when I wanted to send back a faulty lancing device.
Read moreCompared to the chemist round the corner, this is a lot cheaper for the same testing supplies and the reorder reminders actually work. I've been ordering from them for about four years now. The one gripe is the packaging, which arrived a bit squashed on one occasion, but the item was fine and they replaced the lot without any fuss.
Read moreWorked out about a third cheaper than the chemist for the same strips, which is the main reason I switched. Took a few days longer than I'd like to get the first box, and I had to chase one email about the dispatch. Otherwise the ordering was simple and I'll keep using them for the monthly top up.

The first blood sugar test kit I ordered arrived with everything I needed and the instructions were clear. I'd never tested at home before so I was nervous. The lancets were a bit fiddly to load at first but I got the hang of it quickly.
The lancets are a finer gauge than the ones I was using before, which makes a real difference for my dad's finger pricks. Prices are a bit under the high street and the reorder reminders arrive on time, though the checkout asked me to re-enter my address twice.
Compared with the high street pharmacy this is quite a bit cheaper on the same strips, which is why I switched. Checkout on my phone was a bit clunky though, I had to log in twice. Otherwise sorted.

The website presents the range alongside educational material on skin health and ingredients, which is aimed at people who want to understand what they are applying to their skin.
