Had to buy this to replace one whose band broke just after the warranty expired. The Heart rate monitor seems accurate when compared to the built in monitor on a treadmill. Only negative is that the charging cable is short, unique to the device and not the easiest one to plugin. It also would be nice if there was a medium size band (5.8" to 6.6").

I purchased the FitBit Charge HR for my 16-yr old daughter. She has been sick the past year and was just cleared to increase her activity. She can clearly see what she has accomplished each day and the following day she tries to match or beat her numbers. The ability to track her HR has proven valuable as the Dr can see what causes her HR fluctuations.

Since purchasing my fitbit i have been able to keep track of my calorie intake and output as well as how much water im drinking. It also tracks my sleep and has a great silent alarm feature that I use so that I do not wake my roommate with my music. Great gift for anyone. The only thing i dislike is not knowing the battery level until its dying.

The main reason I was looking for a HR monitor, was to let me know how effective my current workout regimen was. In that area - I think the Charge HR fails a bit....It doesn't record well during high impact/weight training. I think the pressure on the wrist during push-ups/planks messes with the readings...and even jumping jacks can alter how well it picks up your HR...so the calorie burn is obviously affected. Would feel like I was dying----and it would register 105 calories burned...doubtful. However, it is contagious to be able to track steps/stairs etc. And the app is a fun way to track everything from sleep to food and water consumption. I don't know that it is overwhelmingly accurate with the HR at all times (sitting peacefully and it reads 101?), but seems to hit the mark for most.

I started with a Flex, and even though I had some issues FitBit customer service is so great I didn't mind. Lost my Flex at work and was forced to upgrade to the Charge HR that I'd been eyeing for months, and so glad I did. The little things it does automatically (sleep, workouts, etc) are so worth it and I like the heart rate feature. It seems to be pretty accurate for me!

I received my Fitbit HR as a birthday gift. I had previously had the Fitbit One and was wanting to upgrade. I love that this tracker tracks my sleep patterns and heart rate in addition to the calories/steps etc. I am very happy with the performance of the Fitbit HR and would buy this product again.

I bought this for my daughter and she loves it. She sets how many steps she wants to walk and it keeps up with that along with heart rate and calories burned. It also lets her know how she is sleeping, example: how many hours of sleep and how many hours of restless sleep. She has had it for about a month and still loves it. She says it is the best $ I have ever spent on her.

Before my Fitbit charge I owned the vivosmart and a Garmin. I didn't care for either of them but have really enjoyed my Fitbit. It helps keep me moving if I find that I don't have as many steps at a certain point in the day. It also tracks your sleep and you can visually see the time of day on the watch. If you are looking at getting a fitness watch, this is the one to get.

I had the Fitbit Flex and thought it was helpful for tracking steps but the charge is much better. You can see your steps easily on the device rather than syncing to get the exact number. It is larger and since I have small wrists even the small band can be uncomfortable. I wish the solid part where the electronics are was smaller as it extends past the width of my wrist.

Absolutely love this tracker. Measures steps, stairs, distance, calories burned and my heart rate. Paired with the Fitbit app I can track water and food consumption. It's easy to set goals and Fitbit sets you up with the approximate calorie intake you need to reach your goal! Keeps me motivated and stirs a little friendly competition among friends to have the most steps.

The Fitbit is awesome. I'm pregnant so I need to watch my heart rate when I work out, it does the job without the annoying chest strap. Also the step tracker encourages you to keep walking and get those steps.
The only thing I wish is that the battery would last longer.

This product really helps me maintain fitness goals. The heart rate function is perfect for tracking your calories burned during any exercise and lets you know just how hard you're working. It's also addicting, you'll want to push yourself and do better than the day before. The only downside is that I need to charge it about twice a week. I wish it held a longer charge.

The charge HR meets all my expectations. I particularly like the constant heart rate monitor and the fact that it automaticaly tracks sleep without any user input, unlike the fitbit flex. The only downside is the lack of interchangeable bands.

This band is accurate and easy to get started. There are so many colors to pick from, something for everyone! Wish it was waterproof versus barely water resistant because I swim a lot and it's not easy to remember to remove it. Great investment!
Haven't had any issues, easy to maintain!

This works well at tracking your activity & calories. I do not recommend buying the small size no matter how small your wrist. The device part is larger than you may expect and is not flexible. Buy the large, you'll appreciate the longer band. I wish I had known.

Does a great job tracking steps and other information. Wristband took a bit of getting used to but is comfortable to wear. I have a very small wrist and the small fits great. The only thing I don't like is that I have to take it off to wash dishes because you don't want to get it wet.

Love my Fitbit Charge. So easy to use and comfortable to wear. I am always on the go and if I get lazy, I feel guilty and start moving for more steps. The sleep monitor is so cool. Knowing how much sleep I am really getting and how restless I am.
Doing the challenges with my friends is always fun!
Anything that makes people more active is number one in my book!

I'm very happy with the product but I'm wondering if it's very accurate on the steps, it seems like sometimes if I move my hand it's making a step for me that I didn't take, i look at the calories burned and I wonder did I really burn all those calories? Besides that , I wear it every day and I love how keeps track of my sleep...

I love it. It's pretty accurate and I enjoy the heart rate feature. However I am experiencing some skin irritation, looks like a burn. I'm pretty sure it's caused by it being slightly too small. I got the small size because I wore a size small band for my Fitbit flex. I haven't had a chance to switch it out to the larger size.
