I have the Dario. I like mine but for me it reads high, it's probably my fault but I'm curious to know how others get on.

Well, it looks very sexy, and I love the compactness, and the smartphone connectivity, and the food database stuff, but 50 strips are more than double what I'm paying for 50 Codefree strips (without any additional postage).

So I'll stick with the Codefree for another few years...

I am using the dario and it is as accurate as my BGStar as when I first got the dario I done side by side testing for the first few days. I love the dario it's compact yet so functional and I never realised it can estimate your hba1c as well

Hey Guys the Dario popped up on my FB wall and looks quite good - What would you say are pros and cons?
