[QUOTE="Nicola M, post: 897008, member: 81557"] 1. You don't necessarily have to remove the pump as most pumps nowadays are waterproof and even if you do have to remove it, it takes a couple of seconds at most. 2. Not sure what you mean by "cleaning" but I don't clean mine that's for sure :) (If you mean set changes that's really simple and takes 10-15 mins at most or at least mine does, could be different for other pumps) 3. The pump tubing is very flexible and can twist without issue, it takes some doing to get it to stop working. I've tugged on mine a few times and it still works fine also their are tubless pumps as well so that wouldn't be an issue 4. You can unclip the pump for this or just set it off to the side as the tubing is quite long. Hope that helps you with some of the negatives you've heard! ^ On another note I've had the pump for just over a week and my blood sugars have drastically improved and are now sitting in the range on average of around 6.5 :)!
