Aquapac Waterproof Insulin Pump Case, Small

I went on holiday recently for the first time since I had my pump. I came across this product by chance, but I have to say, if you have an insulin pump then this is a must if you are planning on swimming or going to the beach. I did think before buying that it was a bit pricey for what it is, but it is a fantastic piece of kit. Two weeks of jumping in and out the pool as well as rolling around the beach with the kids, and my pump was perfectly protected. I didn't fancy having to take my pump on and off all the time, but with this, I just set temporary basals, popped my pump in the Aquapac and off I went. Not a single drop of water or sand came in contact with my pump the whole time I had it on. You can also operate the pump through the plastic bag, so don't have to take it off at all during the day. I clipped it at the front then put the pump bag bit either at my side or behind my back. It comes with a generous length of belt strap which is fully-adjustable. It didn't get in the way of my enjoyment at all, and I forgot I had it on apart from the first time I went down a flume with it at my back and managed to get a few scuffs on it. Next time I slid the Aquapac round to my side and problem was solved. I also used it in the shower while away, and would 100 per cent recommend this product. You can check out the Aquapac website, but I found even with postage, it was slightly cheaper here (As most things are!) If you are thinking about getting one, I would definitely say you should go ahead and do so - you won't be disappointed once you use it for the first time. Also found insulin delivery wasn't affected as far as I could tell, and my bloods were very good for most of the holiday. Back to the actual pump, I found that the silhouettes stayed on OK depending if they came into contact with sunscreen/sweat or depending how much I was jumping into the pool, but would suggest buying some sticking plasters to put over the entire sticky bit - that meant the cannula stayed in place perfectly, although I was left with a couple of strange rectangular non-tan marks! But a very small price to pay to be allowed the total freedom a non-pumper would have in regards to going swimming and to the beach. To conclude, I spent hours in the water with my two young kids, which I wouldn't have been able to do if I hadn't stumbled upon this amazing product, and not once was I concerned about my pump being at risk. BTW your pump provider should give you a spare pump to take as long as you contact them at least 4 weeks before you go, and I bought insurance for them both for less than a tenner for a month, which I have now cancelled, but had great peace of mind as they cost around £2.5K each. Google 'insulin pump insurer' as neither my travel insurance or home insurance would cover them while I was away.

It is a good bag on the one hand that does not allow water to pass through, but there are defects, and it is difficult to insert and remove the insulin pump. The second reason is that the belt is strong, and this is good, but it is very rough, and there is no way to reduce and enlarge it on both sides, but on one side. I hope the manufacturers of this bag make some adjustments

Arrived around a week after order. It came from an address abroad so I guess there could be issues if it needed returning. I have a Medtronic Minimed 780g and I ordered size ‘mini’ which fits perfectly. I was a bit worried about this as another review mentioned it didn’t fit although the measurements in the advert suggested it would. So very pleased it was a perfect fit. It only took my a couple of minutes to work out how to open and close with my Minimed inserted. I’m off to Cyprus soon with the grandchildren and looking forward to being able to swim without having to faff about taking my pump off. The strap looks sturdy and able to accommodate smaller and larger people. I’m not sure I will use it. I might just tuck the case in my swimming costume. Fingers crossed it doesn’t leak!! I have been considering pupping my pump in a bag, in the case 😂😂

Very good quality plastic however way to small to fit my medtronic pump. I would have to force it in and I don't want to reuin it. Am about to return it.

Really did the job and made it so much easier to enjoy the pool on holiday without the faff of having to re attach and unattach my insulin pump all day which in a one piece swimming suit and a cannula in my stomach would have got annoying fast. Was a bit worried id be wasting my money as it wasn't what I'd call cheap but it was worth every penny. Id highly recommended!

After continuously trying to get the clamps to engage, they will not do it without damaging the cannula line, and I checked and now no insulin will be coming through because it looks like it’s caused a blockage in the line not worth £45 at all. save yourself some money, get yourself an bag from IKEA and put it in there. It would do better

Highly recommend! My daughter just back from an all action water-based activity week - kayaking, boarding, zip wire etc etc. Aquapac meant she had no concerns about her insulin pump getting wet and she could see perfectly well thru to set her doses etc. Made a 14 year old feel very secure and happy!

Used this to hold and keep my insulin pump safe whilst wearing it swimming. (Accu-check insight). I was a little nervous the first time I used this as after reading the previous reviews, it seemed to good to be true that I could wear my insulin pump whilst being in the water for hours, but sure enough 4-5 hours later everything was still working as it should. I’d been down rapids, wave machines, flumes as well as general swimming. And when checking there was the most minor amount of condensation. The clips are a little fiddly at first, and I struggled but I think this was mainly down to me being a bit incompetent rather than a design issue (don’t try and push them through too much?!). The strap is very long, I’m a “regular/small sized adult” and it went round me at least twice, so may need more modification for small children. But everything did stay in place. But overall, I’d definitely recommend this to any pump wearing diabetic, be brave, your pump will survive!!

I love this thing!!! I was tired of having to take off my pump and swim/snorkel for an hour (if I'm lucky) and have to end the fun early just to hook back up. Not fun. But then, enter this wonderful device and all my hopes and dreams are met. This works wonderfully and it's minimalist design is not too bulky and easy to hide under a Tankini top or a pair of shorts. I tested this out on a recent family vacation to Hawaii and I wore it all day long, to multiple beaches and swimming pools, and not one drop of water disturbed my pump. It's so wonderful to be able to play in the water all day with my kids. Again, I LOVE THIS!!!

Produit très cher et pas les dimensions pour toutes les marques de pompe contrairement à ce qui est indiqué j’ai été obligé de la coupe pour récupérer ma pompe 50 € environ pour une seule utilisation ça fait mal À ne pas acheter

Top pour pouvoir profiter de la piscine ou de la mer. Par contre s'abîme assez vite . Et si mer et que du sable se coince dans l'ouverture c'est compliqué

Works good with my tandem t:slim X2 with full day on water (pool and sea). I used without the belt. I put on a pocket. It leaks a bit of water. But the pump water resistance worked out, so no problems and I had a lot of fun with this keeping the values in control.

Fa benissimo il suo lavoro, la cintura è bella larga regolabile e il micro è gestibile senza dover essere estratto dal marsupio. Bisogna stare un po' attenti quando si inserisce il micro la tasca è molto sottile e mi da impressione che possa rompersi facilmente. Il resto fantastico
