When I’m referring to safety record, I’m generally talking about how the MM horror stories are no longer uncommon.

Thats some pretty scary ■■■■ if you ask me, thats a risk I refuse to take personally. I cannot afford that, especially if I’m driving, that would turn me into a mad man behind the wheel like in GTA4, especially considering I’m a throttle happy person at times.
Although the odds of it happening is extremely slim, such as like 1/100,000 or something like that, still it only takes once to potentially end up dead. I’ve searched very hard to find Animas malfunctions causing the same things, I couldn’t find a single case of it.
We are talking about devices that have the potential to kill us, whether its human error or the pump malfunction. I waited nearly a full 10 years before I decided for my self that it was time to jump off of MDI and onto a pump, I did my researching and googling for months, and thats what brought me to my conclusion. MM was the best at one time way back, but back when they had very little competition, they lifted on their quality control, and blew it as a result. Now you can find numbers of people jumping ship to other pumps.
