Has anyone experience with the Kaleido pump

I never had a pump before and due to the DP and how it affects my daily life my DSN suggested a pump.

After some discussion about tubed vs patch pumps she said i should reserach the Kaleido pump.
As I see it it is a mix between a patch and a tubed pump. It can attached like patch pump with a short 5cm infusion set but the pump can be refilled like a tubed pump. This is important for me as most patch pumps can only hold 200 units and that is not enough for me for 3 days.
Oh and the pump is a Hybrid Closed Loop system

So I wonder if anyone on this forum has any experience with this pump positive or negativ. Thanks
 
Looks quite pretty to me, though only available in the Netherlands and Germany at the moment. I'd certainly be interested in hearing a review of you do decide to go this route.
 
I didn‘t know it was not widely available yet. I certainly will try it out if it is approved by my insurance. Will post my experience then. My next appointment is at the start of september. I hope that it works for me. It would give me more freedom with my food times. At the moment if I eat anything after 6pm I get a huge spike starting at 3 am up to the high teens.
