This is working great for my mom. We have had to change the intervals a few times because of her prescribed medicines and doctors finding what works for her medicine wise. But I love that you have up to 9 different alarms to use throughout the day. It does get easier as time moves along to open the face of the container, just be patient. It took about a month for me. When ever I had to open the face of the container I would open the pill dispensary door, place my index finger inside to lift the face while pressing the green button down with my other thumb from my other hand. Just perform this action with caution because you risk all the pills falling out if the whole wheel has not dispensed all pills yet. Others have said in reviews smaller pills get stuck when dispensing, What I have done to avoid this is I have asked my mom to flip it over completely and open the door and all pills will come out. I asked that she do this over the bed, so she can see the pills laying on her bed. She has yet to experience the pills getting stuck in the slot between the wheel and the device. Even if you take out the battery (which we have had to due to multi hospital visits) the previous alarm settings are still set! No resetting the alarms or trying to remember what you had set before! This is worth the money and has worked for my mom. Pill life is easier now. Read more

This device has been a TREMENDOUS HELP! It gives me great peace of mind that my loved one has the correct pills with the correct dosages, and at the correct time. I no longer have to worry about medication abuse with them. The reliability is MORE than worth the price. A hundred times over! Read more

Excellent way to assist in taking medications, especially if someone has a challenge remembering which ones to take on which day/times. It is programmable multiple doses per day and opens up whatever time of day you choose. It has two options for alerts; an audible alert as well as a visual flashing light alert. The lid is also lockable. Read more

This is a 28 day automatic medicine dispensing machine. Not sure why they didn't make it a 31 day to match days in the month. Note: If you need to dispense meds twice (2) a day it will only be good for 14 days. It flashes along with alarm and the alarm can be really loud if needed. Alarm sounds until the unit is tipped over for dispensing. Easy to load and set up. Locks to protect from spilling or unwanted tampering. I bought one for both of my parents, put their individual names on each and set different dispensing times. Loving it so far..very comforting knowing that they are taking their meds daily Read more

Works great, sometimes tough to understand if filling for many times per day. However has been wonderful for my dad. Read more

This machine worked well for 8 months then started to not turn when the alarm would go off. I purchased a second unit. This second unit started having issues at 4 months. Alarm would go off but the tray would only turn 1/4 of the way to the next position. I have purchased a third unit and hope it will last longer as this is a really handy item for my 98 YO father-in-law. Nice idea, I just wish that it was a little better built and lasted longer.

This does exactly what it’s designed to do. I got this to help my 88 yr old father in law as he was struggling with his pills and often times took them more often than he was supposed to. He likes it and so do we. Read more

I bought this for her. However, astoundingly, she does not hear it go off louder than a bomb raid siren. Rather, HE panics and (both in motorized wheelchairs) chases her around the house with it still screaming away. Then they both leave it somewhere obscure and mysterious until the next siren goes off and, well, press REPEAT. I'm no better: lost the key in less than a week and just figured out I've also lost the spare I bought just in case I...(sigh). Imagine the fun of trying to crack it open to split a pill already in there. The pill slot? It's a crevice. I use scissors to manipulate the pills already loaded, but, yeah, what a pain. I miss opening just one day's worth with no fear of raining pills. Finally, it and I quibbled over when Day 1 was and when Day 2, but apparently for now, we're at last in sync. It's nifty and I'm sure it's a godsend for somebody who already has their caca together...which would beg the question: then why buy it? Read more
