    It is a good way to keep you accountable and let's you know when you're being lazy. The only issue I have had with mine so far is the floor counter. It went nuts and thought I climbed over 3000 floors in a day. Thankfully, fitbit support is great and they told me how to fix the issue.

    This tracker has been highly accurate and provides multiple types of feedback that is encouraging. It is a little wider than I would prefer, but is not a deal breaker.

    Bought the fit bit for my wife for Christmas. She loves it. She watches her steps daily as well as her sleep time. She's always trying to out do me for number of steps taken each day.

    Great product, the only complaint is that the Fitbit tells me that I am going up flights of stairs when I am not. So at the end of the day it will say that i have gone up 7 flights of stairs when I have only gone up one.

    I upgraded from the Charge to the HR. The HR seems to be more sensitive, so I get a more accurate step count. Also, the silent alarm seems to be a little more silent, and gently wakes you up.

    It works great and is very easy to set up and use. The only thing is it is a little wide. going to the new slimmer fit bit you loose some of the functions. I like everything else about it.

    My wife and I got these to help track and put some metrics towards our fitness pursuit. Can really tell at the gym when someone is dogging it! Battery life is good and only takes about an 1.5 hour to charge. The practicality of it being a watch with caller id is a nice additional feature as well.

    This is a great product for those motivated to keep track of their weight loss goals. The wife had her eyes on one of these for a while, and I finally decided to suprise her with one. She loves it! The food tracking through the app works great to monitor caloric intake. Very satisfied with the product!

    I found the Fitbit and its program to be a bit more user friendly than the comparable VivoSmart. The only drawback I have found is that this is "water resistant" but without a rating.

    I was disappointed in the great reviews. After doing some research got the Fitbit due to being an HR for heart rate. Disappointed its not a touch screen and have to constantly be pushing the side button to change display

    I'm a mom with and infant who works overnight. I got the Fitbit to help track my sleep... Or lack there of. It was eye opening to see how much awake time and restless time I have at night. The other bells and whistles are cool tool. Just wish when I carried my baby up stairs I got double points.

    I've recently begun to work out again, after getting through a 3 year bout & treatment of Graves Disease. Radiation & 4 huge eye surgeries later, I've lost 25 lbs & an even beginning to jog again. The Fitbit was certainly great for inspiration (other friends) & incentive to improve on my times & distances. Keeping track of statistics, sleep, food, fluids, etc has made me more aware of my activity, & I love seeing progress! I'm 65 years old, & back to my usual weight of 125 lbs. & maintaining it by tracking everything on my FitBit. I just wish there was a way to check the battery; it lasts about 4 days, but no notice until it's almost dead!!

    Great tracker for crossfit

    I really like this device. It's comfortable to wear even for crossfit workouts - no chest strap! Good app content and I can track my steps, calories burned, excerise, and sleep. The one problem I've had is that sometimes I need to set it to sync 2 or 3 times before it will actually update all functions.

    I love my Charge HR!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I received my Fitbit Charge HR (size small) as part of the pre-release and have been wearing it for about a week now and am really happy with it! I've found the heart rate monitor to be pretty accurate thus far as well as the step count. I also find the caller ID and silent alarm functions to be greatly useful as there are many instances in which I have to have my cell phone on silent - I don't have to worry about missing an emergency call if my ringer is turned off and that's a huge pro for me. It's comfortable enough to sleep in easily and does a good job tracking my sleep. It's convenient that it picks up on your sleeping automatically without having to put it into a sleep setting. While I wish the app went a little more in-depth into your sleep patterns it definitely covers the basics and does a good job of it. One thing that a couple of other reviewers have noted is that the small does seem to be a bit on the small side. I'd also take into account that during regular wear, for the heart rate tracking to work its best, it is recommended that the Charge HR should be worn a finger's width above your wrist bone. During active exercise they recommend wearing it 2-3 finger widths up from your wrist bone. Just something to keep in mind when sizing your wrist. All in all, I think the Fitbit Charge HR is a great option for those who want to monitor their activity levels and is a wonderful, informative tool to help encourage a healthier lifestyle!

    Bought as a gift for my wife (per her request, lol). She likes it and uses it every day. Has many features that allow her to track her activity throughout the day. Would give 5 starts but she finds it a bit uncomfortable/cumbersome to wear at night (for sleep tracking).

    I bought this for my wife who is very active around the house with twins, she uses it quite a bit and basically just keeps it on her wrist like a watch. The sleep analysis is great on the app and the app has many other useful features as well including being able to challenge your friends etc.
