In comparing First Aid Kits it's important to keep in mind the purpose. Are you traveling? If yes then consider the place where you are going. First Aid Kits for your house or office will contain slightly different supplies. A good First Aid kit is useful only if it is available. Therefore, the advice is to keep it with updated amount of supplies handy, in a place where you can access it when needed.
