I might be going bonkers but thought I would ask the question!
I use Minimed Quickset Cannulas 60cm 9mm, and more recently have found the connect/disconnect plastic bit seems very “clunky” not really noticed this before, anybody else find this? I still have cannulas that fail before the 3 day point and am lucky if I get 2 days out of one. Tried all sorts of cannulas to no avail. I do bolus a lot of insulin, a lot more than most people so 1 day will equate to many peoples 3 days!

Medtronics canulas are the worst I have ever used in 15 or 16 years of pumping and quality is def worse than 2 years ago when I started on the medtronic pump.
 
I never got on with the Quicksets. My body doesn’t seem to like any 90-degree infusion sets from any of the pumps I have used.

I got on really well with silhouettes (better than Mios for me), and now use the angled Autosoft 30s for the tSlim.
