Ease of use
I luckily don’t have dementia, but this pill dispenser affords me the ability to take my medication at the same time daily.

Undependable
I didn’t like the tags, using numbers rather than days. The tray wasn’t lockable. The pills would jam or get caught under the lip. The biggest issue was it was it quit working after 3 days, 2 times per day. I changed batteries, and it not work. We bought this one so we could have another dispenser ready for the next 2 weeks. We had a Medilert we bought almost a year ago. That’s no longer available. The only issue was original batteries went bad within a couple weeks. After that they have lasted 3-4 months. It’s never skipped a dose or had any issues. It’s been a good unit for us, even though it’s rating was worse than this one. Some people may have no problem with this unit. This something that someone’s health may depend on. This is something that must work!

Too difficult to operate/comprehend
I think this product would work well for many elderly customers. But in our case, someone has to load the device with the pills and apparently the noises/alarms caused confusion for this customer in particular, who lives alone and has no assistance. I understand that for many customers, this device is of great assistance. In this case, the customer is 88 years old and not receptive to technology.

Great for Seniors With Memory Issues
I got this for my mom while she was living on her own. I noticed she would forget if she took her medication on time or even at all. Now that she lives with me, it helps me to make sure she is taking her medications as directed. It’s easy to assemble, fill, and sync to my cell phone and track all her medications. The only downsides are how many notifications I get on my phone and that I can only pair one smart pill box to my phone. But for the assurance that my mom is taking her meds as prescribed, it’s a small price easily paid.

Handy if you have good hands
It’s a little tricky to set up at first, and a little different to get meds out if you have RA really bad in your hands but I love how it reminds you that it’s time to take meds and moved to the next dose

Should have bought this years ago
If you need to keep medications on time and don’t forget this is for you it’s easy to use, you place your pills in the appropriate spots , set your timer and then at the time the top moves to open the appropriate medicine spot, it alarms and flashes lights, has been a game changer for me

It does not lock like it says.
My mom kept sneeking into her pain medical and I was afraid she would take too many…I thought a locking pill dispenser would be great….not. the only thing on it that locks it the battery compartment…oh and it says has a one month capacity….it does not unless you are only taking your pills 1x a day..2xa day=2 weeks and less depending on how many times a day you take them….
