Lancing Device Pen Less Pain, 3-Pack, Blood Sampling Pen, Used with Twist Top Lancets for Blood Glucose Testing, Lancet Pen for Blood Sugar Monitoring, Lancing Tool, Adjustable Depths

My dog has hyperkerstosis on her paws. This little shaver worked great to cut off all the spikey hairs. My concern is that it came with a tiny bottle of special oil for yhe clippers and I don't know how to get more if I run out. But yhe clippers work great.

This product was received as part of a promotion. I have had Type 1 Diabetes for close to 18 years, and have had to poke my fingers hundreds of thousands of times. Thanks to new technology I have a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), so instead of having to poke my finger 8-10x/day I only have to do so about 1-2x/week. I always like to have a good lancing device (or several) on hand. I live in a rural area also so that makes it hard to get a lancing device if mine breaks. I like this device because it’s simple to use, comes in a set of three, each lancing device comes in a tiny bag with a set of instructions in each bag, meant for a life of 3,000 pokes for each device, has 11 depth levels—so after “1” think of “1.5” before “2”—but it doesn’t say 1.5 (and so on!), and is gentle on the finger. It comes with a clear expiration date on the box (as required). Overall this is a very comfortable lancing device I plan on using for my spare meter & having another couple as backup. I really like the setup of this lancing device and would recommend it. For 3, it’s a great value!

Love these lancing devices. They work exellent

Easy to use and doesn't hurt. I am a person who dreads pricking my fingers. With this it's not so bad.

I ordered the 3 pack. None of them worked. I mean NONE!. I would recommend NOT to purchase.

Pro Comfort Lancing Device Pen Less Pain, 3-Pack, Blood Sampling Pen, Used with Twist Top LancetsThis pen is easy and a little less painful to use. The lancet is easily installed and you can set the depth with a little turn of the cap. The lower the number, the more comfort to you. The pen is pretty well made and can be reused over and over. It is a lot like others on the market, but at this 3-pack price, you are saving yourself time by stocking up, and by saving yourself money. I would recommend trying.

First, I am a tough customer. I don't usually have good success with any kind of device using standard lancets, so maybe this isn't a fair test. Second, this device is not compatible with all lancets. My B_y_r Microlancets would not fit (they were too large), but my Avi_n lancets seemed to fit well. I tried the device at both the "3" setting and "6". It takes a bit of strength to turn it. I washed my hands in warm water as instructed (and did a little pre-poke massage). Both pokes barely bled and had to be massaged/gently squeezed, which I don't like to do (it's my understanding that massaging/squeezing can change values). I also didn't notice any decrease in pain. To be fair these devices likely work best with their own lancets (however these do not include any lancets).

I have and use three different types of lancing devices, since a different style seems to come with each testing kit I own, but this design is by far my favorite. The ability to dial in the depth is really important because I’m kind of a wuss when it comes to finger sticks. The operation of these is simple: remove the cap to insert a standard lancet, twist the cap back on, turn the dial at the top to your desired depth, and press the button when ready. Usually, the act of inserting the lancet will set the trigger for this pen but if not, or if you are reusing it, pull back on the base to reset. Easy peasy. Even at the higher settings, the needle never protrudes from the top of the cap so that’s a nice feature of this style of pen.The only complaint I would have about this particular set is that it is a little difficult to turn the top dial for the setting. For those of us who have any pain in our hands or not much grip strength in our fingers, it can be a little difficult, so I’m hoping that they loosen up with time. On the other hand, once it is set, it does not change unless you change it and I almost never need to do that. Its current price of 9$ for all three of these, I think it’s a good value.
