My kids picked it for me, they did the research. I haven't had to rely on it very often. I've called them and they have had to call me as well, but those have been either because I needed to test it or because I inadvertently squeezed the pendant. They've responded quickly though.

It was recommended by Kaiser. After I compared them with some other companies and negotiated a bit, I got the best monthly price with them. Customer support has been very courteous and responsive when we call them. We haven't had to use it for an emergency, but in general it's very good.

I didn't really pick it myself, my family was the one that decided to get it for me. I've never had time when I needed to use it, but I also haven't had any problems with it. I've tested it and there have been no issues with that either. Everything is alright, I haven't seen any problems so far.

A friend of mine who lives in Santa Cruz has it, so I went ahead and ordered it too. I've only had to use it once while I was in my bedroom. The LifeStation main unit is in the kitchen and I just couldn't hear anything they were saying in my bedroom. If I had fallen outside on the porch they same thing would have happened. I've been wondering whether or not I want to keep the thing because of that. I'm not entirely happy with it.

LifeStation was a bit cheaper than the other more popular option out there and they basically gave me the same system. I mean, the other one also had a bit more range and you could take it away from the house too, but my main concern was it being affordable. I've had little interaction with customer service and I really haven't had a reason to use it, but so far it has all been fine.

My husband and I looked over several different companies and in the end we decided to go with LifeStation. We've never really needed to call them, but they are always there. Even if it's our monthly check, they are always good. The people are always very considerate and seem to be very caring. They're always willing to help.

A neighbor told me about it so I went and got it. Actually, we ended up passing the word around between us neighbors. The equipment is great and they have answered every time I've called. I just feel like they're always available for any need I might have and I appreciate that. I'm excited about my other neighbors getting it too.

I just got a letter from Kaiser about the service, so I decided to get it. I've never needed to use it for anything other than checking to see that everything is working. When I hit the button for that, it works well and people respond.

I researched online and I just got them, can't quite remember what swayed me to that one though. The only use I ever had of it was when I was in the garage. The alarm went off and I couldn't hear it. They called and it just got disconnected. The equipment is not really loud enough for me to hear it in my garage or next to my kitchen.

I got it because I liked the area that it covered and the price it had. Customer service is great, they got me a replacement right away when I lost mine. I really appreciated all the hard work they put in to get me a new one as soon as possible. I've had no problems so far with the device that they got me.

They were offering a special service, so I decided to go and get it. They don't really respond quickly when I press the button. It takes them a little while to respond, I actually tried to count once how long it took them but I lost track of things. I've actually never used it, it's just there on my bedside if I need it. One time during a very big storm last year the device went cuckoo. I tried to turn it off but it would just go off on its own at 4 o'clock in the morning. It was all a little scary.

I got it since my wife passed away and I lived alone. On one occasion I pushed the button accidentally when I was working on my car. The next thing I knew was that those two paramedics were standing by me. The button works, I have it around all the time. It's all a little bit expensive though.

I think I was told by Kaiser to get it for myself. I think they actually asked me to have a key outside so that the emergency people could get in, but I don't particularly like that. I just don't feel safe leaving a key outside. I've only really used it once by accident. I happened to hit the button in the middle of the night and set it off. Suddenly there were people screaming in my bedroom and I had to tell them all that it had been an accident so, I guess the response was good. It worked.

I have brittle bones. I fell off a six inch stool and broke my heel. They had to put in four screws so, after that, I decided it would be best to get one.

We just kind of researched our options and what was out there and decided to go with them. They've done what they say they'll do. Though it would be nice if the device could work when you're away from home, but I imagine that would be pretty difficult to do. It's a great company though.

My children were the ones who decided to get it for me. My machine is a bit sensitive so the alarm goes off very often, though I'd rather have that than the other way around. Whenever the alarm goes off they come on quickly and call me. The only thing is that I wish I had something that I could wear on my wrist rather than on my neck

I chose it because it had GPS included. I haven't had any contact with customer service, but the service itself is ok. Though I don't like that the device is kinda heavy. I am kind of anxious since I don't know if it really works. I don't know if it's possible to try it out once a month or so, but it's something that's always in the back of my mind.

Since it gave me the option to leave my home whenever I needed to and there were no hidden fees, I decided to go with it. So far we haven't had to use it thank goodness, but as far as testing goes the answer has been quick. When the contract came in it was in my mother's name, so that meant that it was her ultimate responsibility to pay for the service. I didn't want it that way, since I was the one that was paying for it. I wanted them to change the contract so that my name would be on it, but apparently that's not really possible.

The price was what convinced me of getting it for someone else. It's easy to get a hold of customer service if I have any questions and they answer them. She hasn't had to use it so far, but it seems to work. I do think that the lanyard for the necklace piece needs to be a little better design-wise. It got caught up in her clothes and she actually ended up losing it.
