Our Verdict

Not the most fully featured pump on the market, it lacks the ability to automatically connect to a blood glucose meter. It is competitively priced however, and for those happy to keep their blood glucose meter separate, it does have some nice features, such as the preset specific meal boluses, making it easy for those who have fairly consistent meals.

Its small size, weight and its lower cost are its main advantages.
