CONTOUR NEXT ONE Blood Glucose Monitoring System All-in-One Kit for Diabetes

This is the most accurate glucometer I’ve used in comparison with lab venous blood tests. Before this, I tried OneTouch, Keto Mojo, and the CVS glucometer—none of them came close to matching lab values like this one does.For those managing gestational diabetes, having readings as precise as possible is essential to ensure the baby’s health and avoid hypoglycemia in the mother. This is by far the most accurate option available on the market.It’s hard to believe it’s sold at such an affordable price. The only small downside is its slim, stick-like design, which makes it easy to slip out of a bag. But other than that, this glucometer is the best protection a mom and baby could ask for.

Switched to the Contour Next from an older ReliOn meter, and the difference is huge. This one’s way more accurate — readings are much closer to what I get at the doctor’s office. Super easy to use, and the app is actually useful, not just fluff.I’d suggest grabbing the Level 1 and Level 2 control solutions (sold separately). I use them to make sure the meter stays accurate — just a good habit if you check often. Added a pic of the solution I got.Really solid meter overall

I have been using this device for the first week. It is easy to use. So far I am happy.

Second one, first six years old and served well. Nice app that lets you store data within the app or integrate with IPhone Health App. Very handy interface. No coding, and no errors!

Showed up all together.. other than a day or two late.

Amazing glucouse meter!!!!Easy to set up on my phone and love the convenience of tracking on my iphone.

As described

This product is advertised as +-8% of a laboratory glucose test. According to customer service if it is within 60% of a laboratory test the unit is working as it should. I purchased this to supplement and occasionally calibrate my Dexcom G6. It has often been significantly higher than my Dexcom G6 so would calibrate accordingly. However, whenever I had laboratory work done the results would be significantly lower than the Contour Next One. Recently had another laboratory test and decided to check the Contour Next One. When compared to the laboratory test the Contour Next One read 30% higher. So I called customer service just to try and understand what was going on. They wanted to know serial numbers of product, strips, the control solution and corresponding lot numbers. Then wanted me to calibrate the unit using the control solution. When they did not like the result of the first test had me do a second and then a third. After 40 minutes doing everything they asked was told there was nothing wrong with the unit. So I asked them how do you explain being 30% off? No explanation just that the unit was working. Pretty obvious that despite the fact I had not asked for anything their main and only concern was having to replace a $10 unit. I finally gave up with them. I then researched other meters and found a 1917 study that had scientifically tested 18 different meters and the only one scoring 100% was a Contour Next, the previous model to the One and I had a supply of the strips. It was only $20 so bought one to compare to the One and my Dexcom G6. Turns out it is quite close to and tracks with the G6 while the One can be 30% higher than either of the other two. Meanwhile received phone messages from a Kimberly to please call a certain number which I did but no one had a clue what I was talking about. In fact it was a totally different department. Once they connected me with the correct department they still had no idea who Kimberly was or why she had called me but had all the information I had previously given them. Again I was NOT asking for anything just an understanding of what might be going on that the unit was so out of spec. I Told them I had purchased a Contour Next and it appeared to be working while the One did not. The rep proceeded to tell me multiple times that if the unit was within 60% of a lab test it was working properly. I argued that that made no sense and the FDA would never approve anything that would be so far off from a laboratory test but to no avail. No explanation why the two units were different and like the control solution tests wanted something different. I told them I did side by side test using strips from the same lot and blood from the same finger prick and he had the audacity to tell me that I had to do two different finger pricks for a test. Had I said that I used two finger pricks I am sure he would have told me that would be the cause of the error and I should have just used one. I finally gave up since everything seemed to revolve around absurd excuses and their only concern was not having to replace a unit even though I never asked or even cared about replacing a $10 unit just wanted to understand the discrepancies. So if you want accurate blood glucose measurements and value your health DO NOT BUY a Contour Next One.
