Too Big For My Arm
It was too big for my arm b/c it didn't have enough elasticity in it. So it fell off at the upper part of my arm. They should have specified to not put your sensor close to the armpit area. It would stay at the upper part of my arm. I'll try it again when I exchange sensors to see if it will stay a little lower down the arm. I tried to buy a smaller one but none were available.

Not bad but not great
After reading all the initial reviews, I got the right size by ordering one size smaller then recommend. But found the band still sliding down all the time. It seemed to stay in place say over night. But I eventually tossed this in favor of the FixiC Round Adhesive Patches, also sold by of course, Amazon.

Comfortable and efficient
Helps hold in my transmitter by keeping the tape from lifting. I'd buy this item again.

Works really well. Comfortable
I bought this (and another type of armband) for my husband. This one is super comfortable. The only downside is that it's pretty difficult for my husband to get it on by himself. It may also slip down over the course of the day.

Nice product
My daughter plays soccer so her dexcom arm always gets hit. We use this over top of the dexcom and a freedom band to give it added padding to absorb the shock of a ball or body strike and it works well.They run a nice bead of silicone on the inside of thebband to assist with the sleeve not sliding up and down on the skin. Works good, but does ride up or down a little anyway. Still good to have on hand and thebprice is right.

Provides Peace Of Mind
After 20 years of finger pricks to test my blood sugar got the Abbott Freestyle Libre 2. Had NEVER attached anything to my body before and, after days of freaking out, finally "bit the bullet" and went through the machinations only after receiving this armband in the mail from Amazon. It doesn't bind, doesn't cramp circulation, keeps the sensor from getting knocked off or otherwise rendered useless. Worth MUCH MORE than the price!

Okay
I've used Not Just a Patch brand patches to cover my Libre for a couple years and decided to give this a try. I was sick of having large tan marks on my arm when removing the patch and sensor. I like that I can just take this on and off, so if I'm in the sun I can keep from getting the big tan lines when I move sensor placement. I followed the size chart and it fits well. It does make my arm a little itchy every now and then.

Thicker than most. Better quality than most.
I got the blue one. The design is ugly as sh!t. But it covers my CGM on my upper arm, so no big deal. Price is pretty expensive for what it is.For the pros, itโs knitted, so itโs breathable. Unlike a neoprene sleeve that can get hot. Also, itโs thicker than a knitted sock, so I feel more protection to my CGM unlike a spandex or thin textile sleeve. The silicon grip on the inside prevents it from slipping down your arm, which actually works. Still, this sleeve is thicker and better quality than what you can get here or on Etsy to cover your CGM.Minus 1 star for the price. Gun holsters costs less than this sleeve. Minus another star for the ugly a$$ design.
