Review on Large 3-Times-A-Week Pill Box Organizer With 7 Compartments - Set Of 3 With Carrying Bag By INVODA by Erin Brown

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Recommend. Suprising Quality.

Purchased to replace "Weekly Pill Organizer 7 Compartments Daily Pill Box Travel" by the same manufacturer.I purchased the previous item twice. It worked well for my preteen but broke easily when dropped (which happened alot). I recently found pills had spilled inside a cabinet because the top cover of the other pill case no longer fastened on correctly (the little tab thing snapped off). My child had not realized it was broken, so had tossed it back into their bin, and pills went everywhere! Spilled meds is not just a financial concern, but a safety issue since we have a small child and pets!We switched to this item because it's is a multi-pack (broken ones can be immediately replaced), and it has a case to protect the item from drops, and contain the contents in the event a crack goes unnoticed.Pros:- Case fits well, and seems surprisingly durable/well manufactured. Zipper operates smoothly. Consistent quality for all three cases.- Pill organizer has slightly larger compartments than it's sister product. (Due to the lack of labeled days of the week and "blank" slot)- Product design is novel and fun (for a pill case).- The door/hatch that one opens to get the pills is filled in, rather than hollow (as in the sister product). This means the pills cannot get partially stuck in it, causing it to not rotate. This was my kid's biggest complaint with the other version.- Easy to fill, easy to check. Whole top removes for easy filling. Clear top makes it a breeze to check.- Price. So, so, so reasonable! It helps my child be independent and therapy adherent, while allowing me to easily monitor. Even if a have to replace frequently, so worth it at this price!Cons:- Days of the week are not labeled. This feature was important to my child. but they have accepted this drawback due to their delight in the "filled in door" feature.- There is no "blank" slot to position in front of the door to prevent accidental spills. If the cloth case is used consistently, I expect this will be a non-issue.- Lack of color/design options. The fruit slices are cute, and the gray is a nice neutral, but I'm trying to make daily medications appealing to a neuro-atypical preteen. the fruit segment lines do not even line up with the pill compartment lines. (If you know, you know.)- Not child proof. This is obvious, but worth mentioning, as is is an important factor for many households. We solve this by keeping it up high in a special bin and my child is good about putting it away immediately.Do recommend. Will likely buy again.
