AUVON Lancing Device with Less Pain Design, Blood Sample Pen and Twist Top 100pcs 30 Gauge Lancets for Blood Sugar Level Monitoring

The lancing device that came with my glucose meter (OneTouch Verio IQ) was painful to use, and would occasionally fail to create a finger prick that produced enough blood for the test strip to work correctly. So occasionally I had to finger prick myself two times. You also had to pull out the lancet from the device using your fingers (risking yet another prick). After many years of use, it eventually broke and so I had to purchase a new one. After much research I decided to go with the Auvon lancing device. I have my Auvon lancing device set to 3 (it has ten possible positions), and it is much less painful than the OneTouch lancing device. The manufacturer claims that the lancing device results in less pain because it jabs your finger straight with less sideways vibrations. I also think that the 30 gauge lancets are better than the ones that the OneTouch meter used. The lancets themselves are ejected by sliding a lever forward, and not by pulling it by hand. The Auvon lancing device is also much more reliable, and every finger prick produces enough blood for the test strip to work correctly. So double finger pricks are a thing of the past for me. The lancing device is armed by pulling the rear knob back, this works quite smoothly every time. The trigger button is brilliantly designed. It is a clear plastic button that is blank when the lancing device is not armed, and then turns red when the lancing device is armed and ready to go. In total, this device is much more nicer to use than the OneTouch lancing device. I believe that it's a worthy upgrade to the basic lancing device that comes with most glucose meters.

I have used several devices, this one is so easy to use. So MUCH better than the ones insurance provides and reasonably priced

Absolutely painless! There's still minor pinch in the lowest setting from my old device. However, I cannot feel anything even in the middle setting of this one. I triggered it many times to make sure it's working because I couldn't feel any pinch at all. I finally had to squeeze my finger to check if blood comes out. Totally surprised that it works without feeling anything! So happy that my old device needs replacement, otherwise, I wouldn't know there's painless device. Highly recommended! Bonus - it can use my Free Style Lite lancets.

Like the depth adjustment so I don't kill my fingers. The design is nice - the only issue I have is that when removing the caps I often change the depth adjustment. There should be a more ergonomic way to get the cap off without changing the adjustment especially for older people. It works though

I bought this lancing pen for my diabetic cat. I wanted something that was gentle and after I had tried the lancing device that came with his glucometer - it hurt. So he needed something gentle. This lancing device is AMAZING! I tried it on 1 on some tender flesh of my finger. Barely felt anything and it didn't hurt. I got a nice droplet of blood as well. So this lets me know it will work perfectly for my diabetic furbaby and be gentle on him enough to test his ear or paw pad and not traumatize him. I did have a little bit of a difficult time straight out of the box, the instructions were saying to unscrew the end piece and even the 'how to' video stated that. It took a lot of strength to get it unscrewing. So, IF yours doesn't seem to want to unscrew, don't give up. Give it some more strength, that thing will come undone. Watching the video lets you see what direction it unscrews as well- that helped me a lot.

For those who have to check blood sugar during the day, this device is easy to use. Seems accurate. Can use the generic lancets that I usually buy. Pleased with that. More levels to set to find what is comfortable for you. Happy I purchased this item.

Wife says it's works much better than the the one that came with the glucose meter.

According to description there are supposed to be 10 settings. There are only 5 and they still won't go deep enough for a good draw.
