Hi Susan,
I think the Accu checks are very good units, there is a Accu-chec Aviva meter and it is better than the tru read model, you can check it out at Allegro and check out the differences yourself.
Here is the web address:
Home Medical Supplies - Home Medical Equipment - Home Fitness Equipment
P.S. just put the Accu-chec aviva meter in the search bar.
Good Luck!

Sam
