Dexcom G7 GripShield Flexible and Reusable CGM Armor-Protection from Accidental Bumps (Aqua)

Patience in initial alignment over my CGM device equals confidence & ease in subsequent applications. Fits perfectly and provides secure coverage to maintain CGM placement stability during activities. No skin irritation experienced. Adhesive cover residue is easily and completely removed with GooGone (or specialty pads) when needed. This is a very cost-effective CGM accessory, as no dislodgment of CGM has occurred since purchase, thus eliminating a need for unscheduled, inconvenient & costly CGM devoice replacement. I am ordering a back-up before potential import tariffs could increase production/shipping costs. This device is a valued companion component to my CGM in monitoring my health. Highly recommend!

Good fit nice looking and protects my G7 I would recommend buying this and free shipping if prime member can’t go wrong

Love these! Absolutely worth the investment! Have not had a sensor fall off since using these "bumper guards." I have 2 (clear and teal) for my device (dexcom) and my mom has 1 for her device (libre). My ONLY complaint is the sticker covers for the libre - they aren't preferated and are difficult to peel the backing and put over the device without getting the overpatch sticker twists. This is NOT the case for the overpatch for the dexcom - as the paper backing is perferated and able to maintain overpatch quality in stages while applying.

Update 7-5- 24 I noticed when attaching my 2nd gripshield it looked slightly warped. I applied it as I did the first one, after 24 hours the gripshield was pulling up on one side ripping my overlay patch. I reapplied another overlay but that did not stop it. I can't take it off due to the sensor possibly coming off and we all know those sensors are not cheap. I contacted deck my diabetes through email and told them the 2nd one was defective. They asked for a picture of it on my arm and I sent it. They came up with every reason that it could be my fault. Why would I give such glowing reviews for the first one but saying anything negative about the 2nd one was met with user fault. I never asked for my money to be returned only a replacement. Also I have to cut it up and send picture proof before they will replace. I have 5 days left on my sensor, I'm willing to do what they ask after my sensor expires but the way they went about it was very unprofessional. It's a 12 dollar piece of silicone and they act like I'm trying to rip them off. I really liked the first one but at this point I will replace it myself and hope for the best so I can have a backup. Shame on you Deck my diabetes for treating a customer as if they're not telling the truth after I sent everything you requested. I will be looking elsewhere for future diabetic needs. I know items can be faulty but their customer service don't seem to agree. Update: The gripshield firmly kept my sensor in place with the overpatch for the full 10 days. I bumped my arm a few times and it did its job. Pretty impressed, I did order a 2nd one and replaced my sensor yesterday. Took off the old one and I swear it would of held up for several more days, and that's showering everyday. If you're on the fence buy it, very flexible and didn't feel any different with it on. Was comfortable. I bought the clear one, first time using this and it is pretty great. I do use it on my arm, bumped into the door frame and didn't move. I bought different overpatches that will fit over it but the product comes with 2. Easy to put over my Dexcom G7 and I used the overpatch that came with the gripshield. I really like them so much, even after several days of showers it hasn't lifted at all. I live in Florida where it's so hot and sweat and it's still secure. I'm pretty impressed and I don't say that very often about things. I ordered another one as a backup and probably will be ordering their overpatches as well, keeping the ones I bought as a backup. Granted I'm only on day 4 so I'll update after 10 days again. Worth the money.

Fits tight and when I try to use this it looses signal.

We have now used the GripShield to cover two different G7s and overall it seems to solve our original problem, which is that my daughter's G7 would lose its adhesion and fall off her arm. The overpatch would stay, but we needed to figure out how to physically keep her device on. We used so many different types of overpatches and they either irritated her skin or hurt. Some issues to be aware of: - This item appears to be a 3D printed plastic device. It is not as rubbery/flexible as we thought it would be. It's rather stiff and we had to snip off a few small pieces of leftover plastic. - I didn't realize this at the time, but the item comes with two overpatches. We immediately realized that they would not work for us--they are cloth and would get wet, and the one we put on quickly started peeling off her skin. It would not have lasted at all. However, I ordered a whole other package of the overpatches (that's my fault). It came to almost $20 with shipping charges, and to return them will cost another $5. Not worth it. What we ultimately did was use a clear lexcam overpatch. You'll need to take about half of the backing off so you can stretch it completely over the GripShield. You only have one chance at this because if you need to peel it off, it will pull up the GripShield and device with it. So it's not ideal for us but we are still troubleshooting.

Fits snug over the Dexcom G7 and creates a gradual edge to prevent it from catching on anything. Also stops the adhesive or over patch from rolling under the sensor.

I purchased the Expressionmed and the Glucomart brands to compare. The 2 brands had similar designs. so to make it as fair as possible i purchased the stars/universe designs of both so they had similar color and design. I found that the expressionmed is a more papery patch. it is rougher and wrinkles once it gets wet and dries. The patch did stay the entire 10 days with some lifting on the outside as well as wrinkling near the CGM. I prepped my skin by washing with a mild soap and using alcohol on a cotton ball and allowed to air dry. i paired both patches with the "Deck my diabetes" Gripshield reusable CGM Armor Protection in the glow green color. as my arm is drying I peel off the backing of the patch in the inside leaving only the tails on each end, I insert the shield through the hole, inside to outside and lightly press the shield onto the patch. Once my CGM is inserted i first use the over patch in the Dexcom 7 box, then I can apply the CGM protective shield with the decorative over patch ensuring that my CGM is protected for the entire use. Glucomart is a silkier patch, I was worried about it initially but it conforms better to your skin and does not wrinkle like the ExpressionMed patches. I experienced no rashing, hives or breakouts with either patch and I have sensitive skin and a latex allergy. I swim a lot and preping my CGM the way i do has been very beneficial to staying on the entire 10 days without having to change patches. If you do need to change your over patch using the protective shield allows you to pull off the top over patch without jeopardizing the smaller over patch. All in all ExpressionMed patches get a 6/10 due to quality and function The Glucomart patches 10/10 and the Gripshield Armor 10/10 hope this helps.
