I personally had a difficult time with the Coloplast pouches - not just the click mechanism, but also the heavy weight of the flange. I've been using Hollister now for 5 years - I love the light weight of the whole system the cloth feel and the beige color. But for some people Hollister doesn't provide enough security. If that is the case for you I'd recommend Convatec - I have found it to be the most secure - in fact SO secure I couldn't get the flange adhesive off when it was time to change (and I didn't like the white tape). Best of luck finding your right system. :)
