Sensors are to last 7 days – I bought a box and all four sensors went out within 3-4 days; the transmitters are supposed to last 90 days – mine lasted only 45 days!Seems most of these reviews are negative, and rightfully so. I dont trust the reliability of the equipment. But for a young child like mine, I’d love to have the receiver be the only device she needs to have on her for me to still use the share application.Warning!!! There are better products out there.So, in my opinion, this device does what it says it will do without having to constantly prick my finger 6+ times per day. Getting warnings and seeing trends graphically depicted is valuable but this device is not ready to continuously drive an insulin pump.
