Pros & Cons
Pros
Will be a much better value than the two packs, as long as there are not more duds in the box. Never a problem with expiration dates. I am very thankful this item is available to the public and reasonable in cost.
It's a bit hectic the first time you use it. If you have trouble following instructions you should always google a1c now. I read other reviews where people messed up because they didn't prep correctly.
Cons
Pay the clinics its cheaper and most probably more reliable. Water only strip worked once.
Baffled, i recall the lab really did not get a decent sample. There is two points in the instructions where there appears to be conflict. At $10 per test i'm not really happy about the lack of customer support.
Highlights
Quality
These are perfect to use to get a gauge on a1c before lab tests and seem accurately matched to average daily results for past three months
Have used this product several times and have found it to be very convenient with long shelf life
The 10 pack is perfect as none of the tests expire within the 10 month period
I used 5 of these within about 5 days 1 each day and all of them tested within two points of each other
Price

I bought the product to save some money on my a1c checks by doing it myself
Shipping
Received the kit in 2 days nice
Shipment arrived a little sooner than estimated
They replied within the hour with an aug 2019 date which the received kits were
Packaging/appearance
I then put the defective machine in the box and mailed it with postage prepaid
I know it is recommended that it should be stored in the refrigerator but i didnt do that
Competitiveness
I compared the results of this device with actual lab test result
The other brands provide lancets but this brand does not
We havent had a chance to compare this test to the drs test
Compared to doctor office visit testing which it is pretty cheap
