I currently use the 670g and have had pretty great success with the auto mode. However the Guardian sensor which I have found to be accurate is such an annoyance with calibrations and alarms.

I’m new to pumps period and started with the 670g, not sure it was the greatest idea. In manual mode I’ve done very well, the trainer that’s working with me said it was the best she’s ever seen.
