I've been using a mooncup for about 4 years. It made life sooooo much easier - I could forget about changing tampons every 2hrs during the first two nights of my period, and finally got a good 8 hrs sleep! It took a bit of practice to get it inserted comfortably, and getting it out can sometimes be a fight against suction, but no biggie. I travel a lot on business, and it's so much easier to pack my mooncup every trip, instead of taking 2 boxes of tampons if my period is due. Now I'm into menopause (10 years early, thanks for nothing, body!) so I'm really irregular, but I never worry about being caught without tampons. I think all girls should be told about this at school, instead of all that nonsense with towels and tampons.
