Which glucose testing machine do you recommend?

I am helping my 22 year old daughter do some research on glucose testing machines. Today she was diagnosed with glucose intolerance (fasting glucose level 118). She is also waiting for the results from a blood test for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). Her doctor is 99% sure the test will come back positive for PCOS based on other symptoms she is experiencing. My daughter needs to get a glucose testing machine. We know there are several on the market and we would like to know people's real experiences with different makes and models. Ease of use, portablility, and as less pain as possible are of particular interest to my daughter. If you are using a glucose testing machine we would welcome your opinions and any advice you can pass on. Thank you for serious answers on this serious subject.

You need to be aware of how very expensive the test strips are for the top market machines. I use the Target Easypro because the strips are only $21 for fifty, half of what the others cost. This makes me free to test more often and control my diabetes. Granted they don't have all the bells and whistles the other meters do. But the companies that give away all those fancy meters do it because they are trapping you into spending a ton of money on their meters, they are profiting big time on your disease.
