Finally - patches that Stick & STAY on!
Finally we found one that actually sticks! We have been struggling with many brands. They end up peeling off & taking the sensor with them when they peel. My boyfriend works outdoors in 90+ degree heat & sweats, a LOT. The patches have held up with drenching sweat with no peeling. These patches not only stick, but they are easier to peel the backing & install on his arm. I'm so happy we found these! A little more expensive than other brands, but worth every penny!

A bit pricey, but worth it
I'm currently on my fourth cover, and they have all worked beautifully. Before I got this, I rarely had a Libre 3 stay on for the full two weeks even with careful skin prep beforehand. It took me a couple of covers to get the hang of getting them centered and flat, but once they're on they are so comfortable that I forget that they and the sensor are on. The brown color is a decent match to my Asian coloring. It protects my sensor flawlessly for a full two weeks, with the edges loosening just slightly on the last day or two even after heavy yardwork in hot weather. It comes off easily and leaves no residue (even less than the Libre 3 did!). I have observed no skin irritation, and I have sensitive skin. I tried another brand previously that was made of a waterproof fabric, and it was inferior to this in all ways.

Lightweight & STAYS!
I had previously been using a different brand, which was thicker but stayed in place even when wet...like fabric bandaid. This product is SO MUCH BETTER. The shape I think helps keep the edges from lifting as easily, as well as how thin it is. It's just what I'm looking for - a light cover so I don't get my device snagged or the glue on it wet. It tolerates getting wet very well and dries quickly. I don't feel it at all, and it's actually really soft to the touch and pretty similar to my skin. I forget it's on, unlike the others I'd tried, which I appreciate it. Being fabric, not plastic, there's definitely no crinkling. I also really like that the center isn't sticky. This is for 2 reasons: 1 when applying (which is difficult just because of the weird angle and I usually wear on my right arm, so I'm applying with my non-dominant hand), I can place the middle on my device with one side peeled off, brace it in the middle, and until it's in the right place I can adjust the location. I'm not committed to it sticking immediately and directly to the device where I can't then remove it without risking pulling it off. 2 when I do need to change it (though, most have lasted the full 2 weeks!), I run into the same benefit where I'm not also risking pulling off my device. I purchased the "nude" pack (nude for me), but they also come in some light colors. It gets only slightly "linty" from my sleeve, but I haven't given that a second thought. Gives me confidence if I wear something where it shows! I also appreciate the smaller packaging - environmentally and for storage \ portability. Highly recommend!

The best yet!
This is the thord or fourth patch I've purchased and this patch is the by far. It is super light and thin. I don't even notice it - no pulling or catchin on anything. I always clean the area with an alcohol prep pad, before applying, and that significantly reduces any peeling. This patch lasts longer, without any peeling, than the others I've tried. I appreciate that the center is nonadhesive and breathable. The fact that it is a fabric cover, it does have some pilling after a few days. No biggie, I just treat it like my sweaters and run the fabric shaver thing over it...good as new.

Reliable protection
After having tried several different patches, I am glad that I finally found one that does what it is supposed to do: stay on and prevent the CGM from falling off. The patch is easy to apply, does not collect excessive dirt resulting in ugly dark rims (which are not only unsightly but also difficult to remove). In addition, since I work out a lot and sweat profusely while doing, the patch stays on. It does survive showers, although I would be a bit careful here.

Best Patch for Sensitive Skin
So first, I never leave reviews for anything. However, I am newly diagnosed diabetic and I use the Freestyle Libre 3 Plus Sensor. I have had the hardest time with the sensors falling off or loosing signal. The company had to replace three sensors for me and I haven’t even had them a full month. I am not very active besides being a teacher and having two small children. I tried one other brand of patch but two days in I had developed a rash to the adhesive so I returned them. So I researched and found these. Wow. I have worn the patch for seven days now and it has stayed on and no rash. If literally feels like I’m not even wearing my sensor or a patch. I shower and it doesn’t come off. Today on day seven was when I saw the one edge lift up so I just changed into a new patch and I still have 7 days left on my sensor. Very impressed and very satisfied. I only gave it 4 stars though because it does pilling and because I am OCD I used a fabric shaver to get the pilling off. But even with that, the patch still stayed on and didn’t even feel like anything. I’m definitely using these again!

Another CGM cover that fails to do its job.
It is very difficult to find CGM covers with solid, good reviews. These had the best I could find, so I purchased the natural and the multicolor packs. My first lasted 9 days and subsequent covers have lasted 2-3 days.I make sure the area is clean and dry, wipe the area with an alcohol wipe and allow the area to dry. I also make sure my hands are clean with no lotions or oil. I take one side of the adhesive side off and place the center over the monitor. I apply the first half of the cover and put it on slowly, smoothing as I go, and repeat with the second half. After about a day, it starts to wrinkle and peel at the edges. I have had to replace a sensor once due to the cover falling off. I make sure to pat the area dry after showers as well.Which such a delicate sensor to cover that is on for 15 days, these products really should be better made, and it's disappointing to not be able to find such a thing. We have CGM's to keep us alive and not having something to double up on proper usage is very frustrating. I rated it a 3 due to function and price.
