Great for 3x a day pills On-the-Go!
I got this for my boyfriend for Christmas this year. Not the most exciting of gifts, but he takes medication daily and his pill box - despite him saying "it's fine!" - had a broken lid on Monday and was only one pod per day - while he takes pills three times a day. I read through reviews and picked this one and this turned out to be a great - if not exciting! - gift this year. Here are the basics: Cases for morning noon and night - this has a three case box for each day of the week. Perfect if that is your need. Sturdy outer container - it is clear - to keep things extra protected and in order, but also the little colored pods for each day can be taken out and are great for an on the go day out. My boyfriend often forgot his pills before but now he forgets less often as these can be with him at all times. Color-coded - different color for each day of the week and pretty clear Day of the Week and Time of day labels on each day's case. Cons would be: These are still little plastic boxes. I assume one day the lids will break. Wish they made better pill boxes, but this seems to be the common format for this item. Also, the little letters are printed on the plastic. Eventually these will wear off. I wish they made the letters engraved into the lids so the paint would last longer. Oh well, again, I looked and looked but this is the norm. Bottom line: For the price, this is a good item. It seems to be as well made as any other plastic pill boxes I have seen over the years, and it is well-organized and great for travel since the pods can be taken out on a day to day basis. If anything goes wrong I will update the review but until then I do recommend this item if you need a three-a-day pill box. UPDATE 03/28/2019: Well, he has had this item and used it three times a day for well over a year now! Surprisingly all pieces work great, no broken doors on the compartments. The printing on the labels still looks good, too! I am very pleased with this gift working so very well. Good luck and hope this helps! UPDATE 11/28/2020: It's been near three years and the pill case is still with us. No broken doors, not too much rubbed off paint, and my boyfriend is a wonderful but destructive ogre. His feet melt socks, all shirts get holes, shoes explode off his feet in pieces. I can't explain it, but somehow he hasn't destroyed these, or even so much as battered them notably. Thinking of getting one for me now that I have more supplements and medications
