Review on Organize Your Pills With Gelibo'S Large 3-Times-A-Day Weekly Pill Box by Bradley Stewart

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not as Convenient or as Easy to Use as Expected

I probably should have done a little more research on pill organizers before picking up this one. I really wanted one that had three slots per day . and this one met that simple requirement. But it is really awkward to use for the following reasons .1. I guess I thought the outer container would be a benefit, but it really isn't. The individual day cases aren't easy to put back in place, and if they aren't solidly in place, the top of the outer container doesn't close.2. The daily cases open from the right . and for a right-handed person (as I am), that's backwards. If you hold the case upright and use your left hand to open the container, you'd empty the pills into your right hand . but I hold my juice glass in my right hand, so I need to transfer the pills from one hand to the other . and it's simply too complicated. Ideally one would open the contained from the top or bottom, but since there are three containers in one solid piece, that isn't an option. (Yes, I know, I suppose you could hold the daily containers upside down to open them with my left hand . which is what I actually do . but I still consider this a design flaw.)I'm guessing I'll tire of the tedium of using this product soon enough and will be looking for another option. But it never ceases to amaze me that companies apparently don't do any real-world testing on their products before putting them on the market. This product looks good from a marketing perspective, but fails on many levels from a user perspective.

Pros
  • OTC Medications & Treatments
Cons
  • The box is not portable, which could be an issue for people who need to take their medications with them on-the-go
