Pump model: Medtronic Paradigm 523
Pumping Since: April 1, 1995, yep April Fools day.
Experience: LOVE IT, wouldn't trade it.
Recommend? Absolutely!

-Pump model: Omnipod
-Since when you've been pumping: November 2011
-Overall experience: I cannot imagine not using it.
-Would you recommend it to others: Yes, definitely. As others have stated, it has been critical to controlling overnight BG while not going low in the afternoon. The insertion is easy. And I have had no pod failures yet after going through over 80 pods.
