Effective when used correctly
The diabetic in my family has enjoyed using this type of sensor cover, and not just because of the fun colors. They are fairly water resistant IF you put them on correctly: smooth with no wrinkles. If applied unevenly (wrinkly) water of course gets up underneath and weakens the adhesive. We have found that if improperly applied one cover lasts about three days, but if applied well without wrinkles it lasts at least a week. We will continue to stick with this brand.

Very cute colors! and it WORKS!
It was cute & perfect for 40 minutes and stopped sticking. The adhesive is extremely weak. I had such high hopes for this to work. Edit: upon trying it again the adhesive is stronger when the skin has been thoroughly cleaned of oils. Now I’m on day 3 no lifting or frayed edges. 5 stars!!

Don’t buy this
The adhesive on this bandage is horrible. I’ve used this product for about a week. I need it for my glucose monitor because my monitor tends to fall out without my knowledge. I can’t even find the last one that fell out. So, I searched for a means to cover the monitor in hopes of it staying in place until I was ready to remove it. As it turns out, this bandage is not the right product for my needs.When first applying the bandage, I was disappointed that it felt odd. I thought I might have applied it incorrectly. It was kind of tugging at my skin. It has a little fold, so I figured that I just needed to do a better job at applying it next time.Within about an hour, a small part started flapping. It was the part with the fold I went ahead and removed it and applied another bandage.That bandage also had a fold and I couldn’t figure out how that was possible as I was very careful to apply it.However, that bandage lasted a little longer because the fold was actually smaller than the first. I was able to sleep with it.For context, I cleaned my arm with soap and water, dried it, and wiped it with an alcohol wipe before all applications.The next morning, the bandage was crumpled under me, completely pulled off my arm. However, I didn’t give up. I took a shower and applied another bandage. That one also had a tiny fold, but it lasted through the work day for the most part. A bit of it pulled away and flapped around while I was working, so I was constantly checking it and patting it down.Since then, I’ve just been applying them and putting medical tape over them. I’m going to try another brand. The only reason I have this two stars was because I do like that there’s a little part I the center of the bandage that doesn’t have any adhesive so that the monitor doesn’t come off when the bandage is pulled off.

really protects the sensor well
I have been frustrated with the Lebre 3 sensors falling off or stop working after a shower so I thought I would try these patches and see how they work and was happy with the results.pros:1 they offer great protection against premature falling off of the sensors. Mine actually stayed on the full 14 days with the use of these patches2. while not 100% water proof they do go a long way in resisting water while showering3. the center section does not have adhesive which allows it to be applied with out actually sticking to the sensorcons:1. the film that has to be removed from the adhesive is difficult to remove and the instructions for use really doesn't work well it is far better to remove all the film before applying than just the center section and then trying to remove the outer section once applied2. the down side of having such good adhesive on the patches is that they are a little difficult to remove when needed and if you don't hold pressure on the center of the patch to hold the sensor in place while removing the patch you can easily pull off the sensorconclusion: if you have trouble with your sensor falling off prematurely then this patch will be well worth the price

Could be easier to apply
They're ok and do what they are supposed to do. Just getting them on is a chore and can be very tricky. I have to have my wife put it on for me or else they get all jacked up.

Updated review
I gave my third cover a try, this time holding the center and peeling the backing off. It adhered much better but I wish the manufacturer would only put 2 peel off backing pieces instead of all the smaller ones. Some pieces were hard to peel off thus causing folds that were hard to smooth out. Please note the picture shown is the original pic I posted.Old review: Within the same day, the edges started peeling. No matter how clean your hands and skin are, the edges started peeling to unstick and roll, especially if you are active. This is my second one in 3 days. I don’t see how they could last any longer than what is claimed.
