| i gotta say, i haven't tired many meters, i was given the OneTouch Ultra when I was first diagnosed. And i thought that felt cheap and tacky, not to mention breakable. But two weeks after that I was given the Ultrasmart, which i think is a really good meter, it does loads of things and gives your averages of so many variables, plus plotted graphs. I also think it FEELS good too, as in, it felts like a solid, quality meter that doesn't rattle around or feel like it's gonna break every time you use it.
As i said, i can't spk for any other meters because i've not used or seen them!
