This kit is great for managing a wound while out and about prior to getting proper medical care. The packaging for the included so-called Refreshing Wipes says "to clean and refresh hands". What about sanitizing wipes especially as gloves are NOT included? What about some sort of peroxide to put on the wound that needs tending to?For what it includes it's not a bad kit, but it is by no means complete. There are way too many things NOT in this kit for it to be a proper first aid kit.

"Wound closure strip" can refer to a couple of different things.Simple, inexpensive, skinny strips such as Steri-Strips that hold a wound closed.Passive wound closure.These require that the wound be held closed while they are applied.Also good for maintaining closure of healing wounds.More complicated (and expensive) devices that enable you to pull the wound closed after application.Active wound closure.This kit has three of the complicated type.A double, a triple, and a quadruple butterfly.Depending on the length of the wound you could choose the appropriate one (or more) of these to use.That's why this kit is only good for 1 or maybe 2 incidents.The strips are of a kind I haven't seen before.Rather than using variations of plastic zip-ties to pull the sides together, these use a velcro type attachment.It makes for a noticeably lower profile and softer strip.There might be a downside to this approach, but I don't see one.It looks like a new & improved version to me.The kit also contains 6 of the simpler Steri-strip style strips.Good for maintenance or reinforcement of closed wounds or, if extra hands are available, for wounds that can be held closed during application.The box is annoying.Difficult to open, especially in an emergency.I'd encourage you to practice opening it, but then you'll discover that it's difficult to reclose as it's packed so full.I ended up taking the 3+6 strips and 4 covering bandages and putting them in my existing kit.The rest was pretty superfluous anyway.

While this kit would be very useful in an emergency situation, I was actually surprised by how small this kit was. It can fit in my hand. I was expecting it to be much larger with more bells and whistles for the price. That being said, because it is small, it can pretty much go anywhere or be stored in a car glove box without taking up too much room. This kit seems to be specifically for wound closures and is not a comprehensive first aid kit. Overall, while it would be handy if you ever got a bad cut, this kit is expensive for what you get.

This is a great wound closure kit rather than just a basic first aid kit. This case has a plastic case that contains supplies to help treat an open wound quickly and efficiently. It's a great size to take along with you on the go for situations that may arise.

I haven't had to use this kit yet luckily but I'm glad I was able to snag it! I also would call it a wound closure kit as it doesn't have any bandages or other simple first aid items.This first aid kit includes wound closure strips x3, refreshing wipe x10, adhesive bandage x4, skin closure strips x6, adhesive tape x2, and mini scissors x1. Stitchless closure devices, making it perfect for travel, outdoor adventures, and home use.I hope I don't ever have to use this but it will be nice to have!

This is a great compact first aid pack that has everything you could possibly need. For my part, I included this in a gift package I created for a young kid who had just won first place. Although not everyone considers first aid, this is a great little package to keep in your home, vehicle, boat, or any other location where you might need it. Everything appears to be of good quality, and it's quite convenient because it all folds back into a small plastic container.

This is just what we need in our house with two boys. It's great to be able to take it with two. It's a small kit that comes in a nice little plastic case. I would call it more of a wound care kit as others are saying versus a regular first aid kit, but that's okay. I like having this in mind and this stuff versus a regular first aid kit or in addition to it.

This is a great wound closure kit before going to seek emergency assistance. I wouldn't call it a first aid kit. What kit doesn't have a bandage? It has strips, gauze, and tape with scissors to help you. Some of the other things are more complicated wound closure materials. The box seems to have been made to prioritize portability, but this makes it hard to reuse.
