 Mediplanner II July 7, 2006
3 out of 3 found this comment useful.
Seems to last about a year, opening 2x daily. Washed it in the cold (top) part of a dishwasher, and it seems to have changed the shape so that it doesn't close right since then. I haven't found a better product, and have tried 3-4 others.
 M-P II is the Best I have found to date June 7, 2006

For Several years, I had been using the Deluxe Medtime Planner.
I fill 4 or 5 of them on a monthly basis. I find myself holding the DMP covers together with shipping tape after the first or second use.
I have not had to tape together the Mediplanner II top yet after a year's use, so I have purchased more to take the place of the Medtimes.
I am also testing out the Large Medi-Chest which allows you to carry just the daily case instead of the entire week with you. The daily case appears to be made of the same tough plastic as the MediPlanner II, however, the weekly containing case is made of brittle polystyrene, so I may end up with a bunch of daily cases without any weekly case to store them in!

As of 2007, after 1 1/2 years of testing, I now prefer the large Medi-Chest. Nothing has broken on any of the 5 units and the removable daily case is great for making day trips or going out hunting, fishing or golfing.
Medi-Planner Should Change Its Name March 16, 2006

The Mediplanner is a compartmented case that stores your weekly dosage of medicine and assumes that you will take pills four times a day.
Unlike other similar items the daily dosage compartments do not separate themselves from the main storage unit. I like this; some people won't. I don't like the other ones because the tops for the individual doages are much harder to open.
What I don't like about it is that eventually the plastic fittings for each dosage get worn down and they no longer keep the pills in the appropriate compartment.
Drop the box once and you know the problem. Pills here, pills there, pills everywhere except the box.
Otherwise it is excellent for fitness of purpose. But there is no planning involved.
Good pill box - and here's the size that's missing in the description... February 2, 2006

Great product, except the description did not include size of the Mediplanner II. Would have given 5 stars, if it had. For your info the size is 8.25" by 5.5" by 1.125". Each individual pill space is approximately a cube with each side measuring 1.125". Much larger than the 4-times-per-day weekly pill box I had before. Ran out of room in that box when I started adding supplements in addition to my meds. When I ordered it, I just guessed and hoped it would be larger based on the number of pills another reviewer said they used. I'm glad I guessed right. It's a very nice pill box. Be sure to let it warm up in your house before opening... if it arrives and is left outside in the cold, the plastic might break when you open it up to fill. That's said on the product instructions, but I just thought I'd give you a heads up, if you live in a cold part of the country like I do. Hope this helps. -Rick
Absolutely The Best ! ! ! June 4, 2004

I have taken 20 to 26 medications a day for 15 years. Every time I wear a box out, I purchase 2 new ones to replace the worn out MEDIPLANNER II. Each time I think I've found a "new and better" one they all fall apart in a month. I always go back to the MEDIPLANNER II. I fill 2 boxes every 2 weeks. I remove the entire top to fill every 2 weeks and open the individual compartments everyday. This of course will stress the plastic. However, the MEDIPLANNER II last about a year of this treatment. The ones I thought were "newer and better" fall apart inside of 2 months use. The other important feature is the MEDIPLANNER II seals more air tight than the any other boxes I've tried. They also are lower priced than the "newer better" boxes. Please save yourself a lot of Grief and try the MEDIPLANNER II.
