----------------------------------------------------------
I think all reservoirs come 10 to a box, at least every box I've ordered has.
Most infusion sets come 10 per box but some do have more. The Sof-Sets are
packaged in boxes of 12. I assume it's because the packaging on the set is
bigger than the other sets and having 12 in the package made everything fit
better than putting in just 10. I know the bent needle sets come 20 per box but
I have never seen them. From the pictures on the site it looks like they're
smaller once they're packaged individually and so they put 20 in a box. Metal
sets are recommended to be changed more often, usually 2 days, so it makes sense
to have them come in boxes with more sets. The Quick-Sets, Sure-T, Silhouettes &
Mio all come 10 per box. Silhouettes come as full sets (cannula + tubing) and
also as the cannula only. Getting just the cannula assumes that you are using
your Sil tubing more than once, as many people do.
