Don't Bother. Doesn't Work. Stelo Customer Service is a Joke
What a waste. Don't bother trying this. It is a waste of money.Inserted the 1st sensor and tried to sync. The app immediately ended the session early. Went and read some stuff online. Says the sensor is bad. Tried to get in touch with Stelo CS and was round and round with their stupid chat bot for like 30 minutes.Finally got ahold of someone. They said put in the other sensor. Did that while in the chat, it also went immediately to ended the session early. Both sensors gone in an hour.The CS person I was chatting with was like. Let me put in a case and we will be in touch. $100 just poof gone.Don't bother getting this product. Save your money.

Totally changes everything!
I've been working with a Nutritionist for the last eight weeks. Since I'm pre-diabetic it was suggested that I get a CGM and try it out. Wow! This device totally changes everything. Absolutely no cheating since the CGM would detect that and show a spike. Now I'm held even more accountable to make good nutrition decisions.It's been a struggle to lose weight in a sustainable way. So far, with the guidance from my Nutritionist, I believe that this device will help me to see the effect on my glucose level for the food choices I have. I've been tracking macronutrients, carbs, fiber, protein... the works. This device is proving to be VERY helpful in dynamically measuring my glucose.No pain in applying. Very easy to use. Took a little research to find clarity.dexcom.com in order to get at patient reporting. I've found this to be a good value for the money and very functional. Please give it a try.

Expensive trash
This device does not work one bit! It does not give accurate readings. My readings only say “below 70”- that’s funny because on the boarder of being pre-diabetic. This device will say “below 70” while my other 2 reliable meters say 116 and 98 at the exact same time. Also, please note that the sensor will only record readings if your phone is on, app opened, and phone within 20’ of you. I don’t love to have my phone with me or on 100% of the time (especially at night) so that’s an issue. DO NOT PURCHASE!!

Very helpful for understanding what affects my blood sugar levels.
I applied the Stelo sensor yesterday. It was very easy and painless. I have been using it for about 30 hours. I have been comparing the sensor measurements compared to finger stick measurements taken at exactly the same time. This Stelo sensor measurements are about 27% higher than the finger stick measurements. However, what is most useful is how the Stelo sensor is helping me to understand how things that I am eating or doing affect my blood sugar. This is really useful. I purchased two sensors and will change the existing one in about 13 days. I am attaching a graph that plots the Stelo measurements versus the finger stick measurements. There is excellent correlation. I have verified the accuracy of the finger stick measurements taken with various blood draws that my doctor has ordered.I will repeat the comparison with the other Stelo sensor when I replace it after 14 days.The understanding that I am developing should help to better manage my blood sugar and perhaps lower the cost of prescriptions used to control it. The knowledge gained should be well worth the price of these two sensors.

Not Reliable, Has Extreme Adhesive
First, I’ll say I’m a veteran of prescription CGMs, so I’m certain this isn’t user error. I placed one device and got it working without any issues, and once it trained a bit, it produced good results. For one week. Then it disappeared. I contacted Dexcom and they shipped a replacement without any fuss. Then, I tried to remove the dud, and wow. Super glue has nothing on this adhesive. I honestly questioned if it was going to tear my skin trying to get it to peel. It took me an hour and a lot of baby oil to get it free, and my skin was raw.Fast forward to trying the one newly shipped from Dexcom, and after inserting it, nothing. No bluetooth beacon after checking on three different devices - iOS and Android. Now I’m sitting here dreading having to try and peel this thing off with fresh adhesive on it.This product seems rushed to market. It’s not that much cheaper than out of pocket prescription devices, if at all, so I wonder how it went this badly. I’d think I just got unlucky if it weren’t for all the other stories of the same premature failures and DOAs. Hopefully it’ll evolve in the future when they work the kinks out.
