I have found like the rest of you that Tandem has failed us with the shoddy product they call a pump case. First of all, how long has it been, ladies, since you wore a belt?? Most contemporary women’s clothing with belts would look ridiculous with a Tandem case hanging from them. Also, I often wear leggings and yoga tights and it is not comfortable or attractive to wear such cases with them. I used to tuck my Medtronic pumps into small, soft pouches that could be hidden in underwear. Those seem to be no longer available except for feminine, lacey pouches that one can wear under clothes to hide money. I asked a seamstress friend to make some, but it was difficult due to their small size and configurations. Then I tried using infant socks to hide the pump inside my underwear. It isn’t lovely, but it works. Finally, I am a person who has wrist, hand and finger problems, so I have found it impossible to remove the pump from the case on my own, and am forced to ask my gracious husband to do so. I, too, called Tandem and expressed my annoyance and dissatisfaction with their cases. They seemed to have the attitude of “too bad, so sad, but tough luck.” I wish I had investigated all aspects of Tandem pump wear before purchasing one.
