Love it!
I love the glow on this is so cool!!!! I had at first had problems with it and couldn't figure out how to put it on my dexcom. I was about to return it when the seller reached out to me and answered my question of why it wasn't working. I now will be keeping it and will bee putting it on on my next dexcom change!

Prevents accidental removal of transmitter and sensor
I haven’t had any accidents with bumping the sensor and transmitter that resulted in them getting removed while using this product

Helps protect against bumps!
The shield works great! A week before I bought this, I ripped off a brand new sensor as I was moving a medium-heavy box. We all know how pricey these sensors are, so I was %#^=!!Now, with this shield to disperse the force, I can slap on an overpatch, and I don't have to worry about my sensor getting knocked off. (Woo hoo!)I really love that this glows in the dark. I may be approaching age 50, but I like to have whimsical little touches on things, especially on something that can be as depressing as a medical device.My only complaints are that the front edge was rough and scratchy along where the printing stopped, and that the petals are quite thin, which makes changing the overpatch a challenge because they're difficult to pry off without risking the sensor coming off as well. I wish they were thicker for my use, and yet I also recognize that other people might prefer the thinner, more flexible(?) design.The shield could be smoother and thicker, but otherwise, it certainly does its primary job well!

I'm Disappointed...
I'm disappointed I didn't buy this sooner!! As a new Dexcom user (I used to use Freestyle Libre) the Skin Grip patches for Dexcom are a nightmare to put on 1 handed! For Libre it was easy. Got this shield because I'm tired of cutting the patch on day 8 and putting a new patch on top. I felt "heavy". This....this thing is a game changer!!!! Not only can you apply the patch to this and then snap it onto your sensor (makes applying patches a breeze) but if the patch curls and let's face it....every patch curls unless you super glue them on...it doesn't stick to sensor patch so you can switch it out. 41 years old and I chose the glow in the dark 🤣 Thank you for making this!!!!P.S. for those saying it doesn't fit....there's a groove that slides over the lip on the rounded edge of the sensor. Slide that in first and press firmly as you snap it on the bottom. Took me a few tries. We'll see how this holds up but I am super confident!

It works great!
I love the neutral and almost clear color of the guard I bought because I don’t want to call attention to my Dexcom, which I wear on my upper arm. I am middle-aged, but I’ve never lost my love for those glow in the dark plastic ceiling stars and I love my guard glowing at night.

Doesn't quite fit around sensor
Just a tad too small to fit around sensor. I tried warming under hot water & stretching, but it didn't work. Since it doesn't fit it's sorta useless to me. 1 of a few products I. The drawer of wasted time n money

Works to prevent losing a CGM
I decided to grab this because I have the one for my Omnipod, which works really well.I like the color of this and the size but ultimately I found it very difficult to get on the CGM. I ended up warming it up and stretching it a tad and it fit. It ultimately did what is was meant to do but lost a star because I had to help it along.Of note: I’ve also used sensor covers from other companies. Comparatively this one is thinner and therefore more discrete. However another company I use has more colors available and I prefer the full base vs the little tabs since I’m active (I’ve had a few instances when a little tab will pop out from under the adhesive patch but only with more strenuous workouts/stretching).

It does fit properly
I have two of these for my four year old so I can alternate and give them a good clean - one red and one glow in the dark because "that's so cool."They are a snug fit around the g6. You don't just push them on, you put them on at an angle. Wider end (the top of the transmitter) goes on first and then push it down flat to go over the narrower end.
