Original Home Blood Typing Kit - New Packaging + Improved Lancet - Single Kit

This thing is so easy to use if you just watch the video when you do it they have a website. The video is on it and it is easy. I am 50 years old and I just learned that I am one of the rarest blood types in the world.If you want to know what your blood type is, I suggest you buy with this for nine dollars. It’s the easiest thing ever.

Got this product to check my blood type. Everything you need is included for the most part.My biggest issue was the blood draw. You need 4 drops of blood.For me, I did the swing arm, stab with lancet, massage finger and got one good drop of blood. Great. Kept at it and got a half drop, but here's my rub. They include 4 plastic wands to collect and transfer the drop to the test card. These wands seemingly repel blood, as my half drop got on the wand and most of it slid off. It takes some time to collect each drop with these wands.By then, I could not get any more blood from my ring finger.Got lancet #2, and stabbed middle finger. only got 1/2 a drop to come out, but I collected it for sample 2.Fortunately I had some old lancets at home so I dug them out so I could stab the ring finger again. Got about 1/3 a drop for sample 3, before drying up.I used another lancet to stab my pinkie, and only coaxed out 1/4 a drop for sample 4. All this took a couple minutes. Meanwhile I was supposed to be stirring my blood on the card for 10 seconds and tilting it in different directions. Such chaos.Even though it took a while, and I didn't have that much blood in the sample, the test seems to have gone ok.I think the process would have been easier if the product included a tiny cup - like a contact lens cup, for you do drip all the blood into at once. Then have a pipette to transfer drops from there to the card. As it is today, collecting each drop is cumbersome causing a delay. In the meantime, the finger can dry up before all samples can be collected.Still at the end of the day, it worked, so I'm happy with this product.

I highly recommend this kit. I'm glad I read reviews before using it though because you do need to be gentle with the lancet in the packet. It doesn't take much pressure to activate and you can really do some damage with it if you press too hard. The test only took me about 3 minutes, all you need is whats included in the package and a few drops of drinking water. VERY easy instructions to understand in my opinion and my results were instant. I have recommended to friends and some have already tried this exact kit.

This blood type kit was very helpful

Bought 3 of these. I already knew my blood type, but wanted to see what my sons was. I did the kit first trying to figure it out, and it was spot on. It has very clear instructions on how you are suppose to use it. It also comes with 2 finger pricks in case you mess one up. I would definitely buy again if the need arises.

I still don't know what my blood type is. This blood test doesn't work.

They need clearer directions for dunces like moi i.e. I read put a drop of water in the circle but did not read the fact that it should not be in the MIDDLE of the circle. So now I'm having to buy another one. My fault I know but they should put IN LARGE PRINT the water does not go in the center. Other than that it was easy to use and was surprised at how painless the pin prick was. I was so hesitant to do the latter because I thought it would be painful.

My granddaughter is in pre-med. She had a project where she needed to know blood types of family members. My son called me and asked his blood type, but I didn't know. So, I ordered a kit for him and myself. They were kind of easy to use. Just make sure you read the instructions a couple times before you start. The little gadget you use to poke your finger for the draw works VERY well. I pressed it too hard against my finger, and ended up with blood running down my ring finger into the palm of my hand. So, point being, don't press it too hard against the skin!! It's a very fine "needle," so it doesn't hurt very much when you do the stick. However, it was so forceful that I actually had a bruise on my finger where I did the stick.
