I recently was given the opportunity to review different pill containers by Sabi  for free in exchange for my 100% honest and unbiased opinion on their product. 

Do you or someone you know take multiple pills daily?

Going out everyday, traveling or sometimes just taking your pills at home can be a hassle. Especially if you have trouble with the bottles or forget sometimes which ones you need to take. Let alone going on vacations or overnight stays when you take multiple medications is a hassle when you have to carry so many bottles.

Well Sabi has came up with some really great ways to not only transport your medications but to be able to have a easy way to take them too. You see every time we have a family trip coming up one thing that I dread is trying to remember all of my husbands medication or making sure that I bring the right amount too. One to many times where I have either forgotten one whole bottle or forgot to bring enough. Now what I love about the Sabi products is how easy they are to use, how versatile they are for everybody no matter if  you take just one pill or a day or multiple, and how well they are made too.

So now let begin by telling a little about Sabi and the products that I received:

寂SABI [/sab-i/] noun - A Japanese cultural aesthetic inspired by the notion that life's imperfections are what make it beautiful.

Sabi - Products designed to improve day-to-day life

We believe that people's imperfections are what make them beautiful and that intelligently designed products can motivate us to embrace our vulnerabilities and feel happy about doing daily tasks that may have grown challenging or mundane.

Sabi products marry vibrant design and superior performance to make the most humdrum chores – from organizing your weekly pill box to taking a bath, to taking a walk – simply more enjoyable. Our ambition: to make the everyday moments count, each and every day.

Sabi products are designed by San Francisco-based industrial design agency fuseproject.

Founded in 1999 by Swiss-born visionary Yves Béhar, fuseproject is committed to projects that utilize technological innovation and design to improve people’s day-to-day lives, promote sustainable living, and create positive social change.

The fuseproject dream is for all consumers to be aware of the environmental and social impact of materials and packaging, and to buy according to humanitarian, ethical, and environmental loyalties.

Products:

Carafe

(handy pills + water)

 It has happened to all of us. We go to take a pill but we don’t have a glass of water on hand. So we get up and walk to the kitchen or bathroom to fetch a glass of water.
The CARAFE water cup and pill box in one is our answer. A combined pill box and water cup, The CARAFE water cup and pill box is handy to have around the house or office, on your bedside table or desktop.
The CARAFE water cup holds 124 ml of water and its pill box features two large compartments suitable for pills of any shape and size.

Holster

(daily pill clip)

 The original, smaller version of our HOLSTER grande pill box, HOLSTER is a clip-and-go pill box with three slide-to-access compartments.
The average daily pill box on the market today is sterile and utilitarian-looking. We wanted to create a three-compartment daily pill box that people would be proud to use and take out anywhere, and that would transform the thrice daily pill chore into a ritual to look forward to.
The HOLSTER pill box integrates seamlessly into a busy day. It slides open with a small amount of thumb pressure and easily slides closed. Compartments hold pills of most shapes and sizes and contents are easy to remove.
The HOLSTER pill box is convenient and clips to anything - a bag, a briefcase, a pocket - so that pills of all sorts, from prescription drugs and vitamins to aspirin and sleeping pills, can be accessed quickly, easily, and shamelessly - on flights, on the road, or at a trendy little café.

Shake

 (easy pill dispenser)

 We wanted to create an alternative bottle-style pill box that would be more stylish and more fun to use, that would sit on bedside table or kitchen counter and be the first thing you reach for in the morning, that would help you stick to your daily vitamin or pill routine. It was an intriguing design challenge.
It was important for us that the pill box cap would be easy to open and not strain the hands and wrists. It was also important to us that the pill box would only release one or two pills at a time, to reduce handling of pills and germ transfer.
And so we created the SHAKE pill bottle-inspired pill box. Transfer your pills into the SHAKE pill box, close the lid, shake, open the lid and retrieve one or two pills from the tray.
The SHAKE pill box lid is inset with an expiry date dial and there’s an inset cork caddy at the bottom of the pill box so you can plug the pill box opening to ensure pills remain inside the pill box (rather than rattle around on the tray under the lid) during rough travel.
The SHAKE pill box is guaranteed to make taking your pills safer, easier, and yes - even fun!

 DAYBOX

(modular pill organizer)

 The DAYBOX pill box is Sabi's largest pill box, a weekly pill organizer for medication management featuring eight pill boxes, each inscribed with the day of the week (plus one extra!) and each with three extra-spacious pill box compartments, suitable for storing a large number of large-sized pills, vitamins and supplements. Eight individual daily pill boxes clip together to form a beautiful weekly pill box and easily detach so you can tote with you one daily pill box at a time.
Each daily pill box is covered with a soft peel-back rubber lid that is easy on the hands to open and close, making loading with pills easy. Rounded compartments make extracting pills easy as well. The individual daily pill box fits well into any purse, bag or briefcase.
The DAYBOX weekly pill box makes it possible for even the heaviest pill, vitamin and supplement user to tote and take their pills in style.

 TRIPOD

(store + go travel container)

 The TRIPOD pill box is a unique roll-open pill organizer designed to hold fish oil pills and other large pills, vitamins and supplements. Secured by an extra-strong closure, the TRIPOD pill box rolls open to expose three large compartments each covered by a hinged, clip-closed lid.
While pill box compartments are designed to hold large supplements, they also come in handy for storing objects of all shapes and sizes, from tweezers, tampons, rolls of mints, and packages of gum to glucose tablets, makeup, lip balm, eyeglass repair kit, and sewing kit – any and all small necessities you may need to take with you on the go.
The TRIPOD pill box is covered in soft, supple rubber and is nice to the touch. It is easy to open and close. It fits nicely into purse backpack, or can be toted in place of a bag.

 SPLIT

(easy pill cutter)

 Different people split pills for different reasons: some pills, especially daily vitamin supplements, are so large that they can be difficult to swallow whole. Oftentimes, pills come in only one high dosage version and you need to halve or quarter them to get a lower dose. Others split pills because it’s more cost effective, since higher-dosage pills frequently cost the same as lower-dosage ones.
No matter the reason, if you split pills regularly you have likely encountered many pill splitter pitfalls. When we began to investigate the task of splitting pills we quickly realized that this seemingly trivial task is actually riddled with problem.
We wanted to create a superior pill splitter. We designed a pill splitter that can split all pills of any shape or size, cleanly, accurately, and easily. It employs a non-steel/non-razor durable plastic poly blade so it’s safe and won’t easily wear down. And you don’t have to worry about it rusting if it gets wet so it’s easy to clean.
We made it adjustable to all pill types, easy to hold and press, and at the same time fun to use and beautiful to look at. We hope that when you use CHOP, you’ll get into the ritual of snapping your pills to size and use the moment to stop, breathe, and think on the importance of your health and the time you invest in ensuring your healthcare is accurate, non-wasteful and… just plain fun.

 Folio

(strap + go weekly travel pill box)

 The FOLIO pill box is made for those on a twice daily a.m./p.m. regimen of vitamins, supplements, or pills. It is a cut above the standard 14-door pill box and is much easier to load, with one universal lid.
It’s also much easier to extract pills from the FOLIO pill box. With other pill organizers, it’s nearly impossible to get your fingers into the pill box compartments and it’s necessary to turn the entire pill box upside-down to shake out its contents. The FOLIO pill box features rounded compartments that make extraction of pills quick and easy.
The FOLIO pill box is also much sleeker than any of the twice-daily pill organizers out there. It fits elegantly and stylishly into purse or briefcase, and can be taken out anywhere.

 I really like the Daybox its so easy to take just one compartment with you or a couple of them. I thinks it is perfect for someone who has to take morning, afternoon and evening pills. The Folio has worked out so well for me as I am always the one to pack up my husband's meds and to be able to take only one item versus 7-8 bottles of medications is truly a blessing for me.

My husband really like the Holster clip he says that it so easy for him to carry around in his jean pockets, plus he says that its really cool too.

These Sabi products are perfect everyone whether your young or old. Easy to use and understand too.
