[QUOTE="Zinadane, post: 2417518, member: 397875"] 6 months on libre. It is brilliant tbh. Although, I do probably have 25% failure rate, mainly due to falling off or occasionally going faulty. Or the last one actually failed at insertion, where the nib bent over rather than inserting itself. I alway call abbott and they always replace, but it does become a nuisance, especially having to send the old one back. I'm now on prescription, so I guess I dont have to get abbott to replace, but I think they should know so they can track the failure rates. For me the ones that fall off are generally when I catch it on something. I think the physical shape of the unit is pretty poor. The edge is quite pronounced. Why do they not chamfer it off so it is thinner at the perimeter, it would be much less likely to catch on something. You would like to think that at some point they may develope a smaller improved version. [/QUOTE]
