   A nice option…with lots of color options!
   I appreciate that they come with instructions! I’m trying to find types that I like, and it’s amazing how different the application process can be. It’s nice to have so many color options, too! These aren’t waterproof, so that’s something to consider. They do get wet, but dry quickly. I’m so glad that manufacturer’s have figured out not to make the center sticky, so if I only need to change my patch, it doesn’t rip the sensor out of my arm.

   Great for covering up your device
   My daughter, who is diabetic, has to wear one of those sensor devices on her arm daily and is often asked by children and/or adults who are not knowledgeable, what it is. Though she doesn’t mind answering, sometimes, it can be frustrating when people, especially, children want to reach out and touch it. If you know about the sensors, you know they are not cheap, and you don’t want them disturbed to have to replace before the right time. These sensor covers have basically eliminated that. They fit well and cover up the device completely. Most people just think it’s a Band-Aid or don’t notice it anymore. She says the adhesive is very good even when she showers, and she especially loves that you get so many in a package. Having the little tin that comes with them is a PLUS and very convenient.

   Cheap, works alright.
   If price is you biggest concern, then this will work okay. You get 50 for $20 (at the time of the review). They are comfortable enough. I haven’t found they stay on the full 14 days without skin tac, but they last a bit. The design is also pretty good, with no adhesive in the middle making it easy to change out.Compared to other more pricey brands, they are not as good in my opinions. There are notable brands (SG, EM, etc.) that are more comfortable, and last better.The fabric on this breaks up a bit and the glue is a little weak. It did feel okay on the skin though, and if not for the residue, I might just use one and change them every 5 days or so. They are quite comfortable the first few days.I’ll probably continue to get the more expensive, but higher quality overlays myself.

   A VERY comfortable patch!
   The adhesive is the most important part of these patches. If the adhesive doesn’t work its worthless, but this stuff works really well so far. Number 2 is having a non-adhesive center. If your patch sticks to your sensor and you need to remove the patch before the sensor comes off…that’s a problem. These give you a nice adhesive-free center. Application is important. Its tough doing this one-handed, so unless you have a friend helping, the peel-backing needs work with you not against you. These are split in multiple places, letting your set the center, then “pull the wings”. Easy (well, as easy as working on anything on the backside of your arm). Lastly come comfort and longevity running neck and neck. It doesn’t shift or peel that I can tell yet. Its comfortable enough that I forget I’m wearing it which freaks me out when I think about it and jerk my hand up to make sure my sensor is in place. Showers, hikes and a round on the golf course and this patch is still doing its job. Kudos guys. Nice to have a patch/cover that I can trust to help protect against what can be very expensive sensor replacements.

   Needed To Cover Sensors
   Recent addition of blood sugar monitoring sensor to my regime cause the need for me to also seek a cover for the device.This particular cover is easy to affix and remove as needed and there is no discomfort.I will continue to use this brand.

   Great for Sensitive Skin, not the Best Adhesive
   Must have for diabetics who use a cgm! There’s nothing worse than having your sensor fall off and needing to go through the hassle of calling for a replacement.These patches are kinda fancy because they come in a round tin which I find pretty cool.I have the tan color which matches my skin tone fine.I have extremely sensitive skin and have had rashes with other patches. I was hesitant to believe that these wouldn’t give me a rash yet was very happy to find that they don’t! So that alone makes me love these.The downside is that the adhesive really isn’t that great. If one little part started to come undone you can bet the whole thing will be coming apart shortly after. A few times I’ve had to use two patches for the span of one cgm. It is annoying but something I’ll deal with since it doesn’t irritate my skin.I have a freestyle libre 2 so these fit perfectly, however they also work for my sibling who uses the dexcom g7.Overall, I am extremely grateful these don’t irritate my skin, I just wish the adhesive wasn’t so poor.
