It's very lightweight, convenient, and easy to use. We tested it and the ambulance came and the fire department and they were very quick to get here, so I was impressed. It's a good price, I'm very happy with it.

I bumped it accidentally and someone asked me if I was OK and they were very cordial. I know it makes my children feel better that I have it. The one thing I don't like is my arms have some swelling and sometimes it's uncomfortable, but I take it off for a little bit and then put it on and it's fine.

I love the fact that it is done by satellite and not cell service range, so that in a tunnel or anywhere my mother is, she can still get help. The only thing I dislike about it is that the plastic piece that holds the necklace button in place breaks awfully easy.

It's always there. I don't like that it goes off rather easily if you don't want it to. I like the device itself, but I don't like the string that holds the neck piece together and the strap on the wrist piece is very hard to take on and off. It has gone off accidentally and the results were very quick.

I have concerns about falling because I'm living alone now since my husband died a few months ago. So I've been advised to get something like this and so I'm using it. Sometimes I find it irritating. I don't like the flashing light on it. The one time I fell I was back up and I wound up calling Medical Guardian instead of the other way around and I didn't get a call from them.

It has red and blue lights that flash at intervals and I called Medical Guardian and they said there's nothing that they can do to turn it off, so I don't really like wearing it with these lights flashing all the time. And they didn't tell me about that before I purchased it. Their salesperson was very high pressure and didn't really give me time to think things over. It's not exactly as convenient as I was led to believe.

I got it as a gift and I did not get enough instructions when I first used it. For example, I was laying on the floor of my bedroom with one speaker in the living room, and I couldn't understand the person on the speaker and they couldn't hear me cause I wasn't shouting loud enough. I could not pick and choose where I would fall. We got through that alright, the local fire department came in, took the lock off the door and they had to guess what to do, I couldn't tell her what the problem was.

We had a device for my wife's aging mother, who was 99 when she passed away last year. She was in Florida and my wife was paying for it from California, and her sister that had been taking care of her mother, took the device to turn it in to Medical Guardian, left it in their drop box and we canceled the service. They've just in this last month charged us for another year's subscription on the device that we canceled. My wife asked me just a day before yesterday to get involved and see if I can get talk some sense into them, because I just paid $600 for this one. I don't mind doing it, but now they have extracted another $500 from my wife after they said they wouldn't. So we're not happy with them and if I have to, I will package this thing up and send it back to them and I'll go to another company.

There was an issue initially with the device and it took calling 3 times for me to realize that the reason why it was performing a certain way was because of the way it was set up. I just feel like that should have been resolved on the very first time and every agent should be knowledgeable about how the devices work specifically. It shouldn't have taken 3 times for me to get that resolved.
