    Easy to set up and start using. I needed it to track physical activities, heart rate, and sleep cycle. It does all as well as allow me to track my food intake. Love that I can use my account online as well as portable devices to update food intake, activities, etc.

    Great device - still learning the programs

    I have really liked wearing my Fit Bit Charge HR. I was surprised how little time it takes to get to 10,000 steps. I also use the heartbeat to keep track of when I'm having an abnormally high pulse. I tend to have problems with rapid pulse when I stand up or get out of bed. I've also been working on my sleep hygiene and the records tell me that I'm awake many times a night and I have very restless sleep. Now I know why I'm exhausted every morning. I've only dipped my toe into what this device can offer me, and they are updating the programs frequently. I wear a size SMALL and my wrist measures 6" at 2" above the bend of the wrist (suggested placement). Mine hooks in the 4th hole from the end of the strap. You'll want to buy a large if you don't think you can hook the strap at least in the 3rd hole from the end because you need room for the end of the strap to lock into the first whole.

    I love my Fitbit. I was using my phone as a step counter but it was a pain. Not with this. Easy to put on and read the screen at any time to see my steps, heart rate, stairs and so on. Love that it vibrates when I reach 10,000 steps or when I get a phone call.

    Needed a 2nd Fitbit

    My experience with the first Fitbit was so positive that when my puppy decided to use it as a chew toy, I felt it necessary to replace it. I have the Plum in size small. The measurement guide on the side of box will help in your size selection. It is comfortable to wear, easy to read and increases my awareness of daily activity. You can change your choice of hand dominance in the program. This allows you to wear a watch on a particular day and then use the Fitbit on the weekends to keep your time. I didn't truly realize how few steps I had during the day (focused on desk work) and I now strive to reach my daily step goal. Of course, a new puppy helps me on the weekends! The challenges with friends is also helpful. My husband used the food tracker for awhile, I didn't find it to be quick enough to commit to. I would recommend the investment in your health.

    Bought this for my wife and she absolutely LOVES IT. Keeps track of her daily step count as well as tracks her sleep during the night. It's really easy to set up and update and makes you want to keep up with your fitness goals.

    Love the Fitbit. Comfortable wearing and easy to use. Pretty accurate with steps, HR, and love the additional tracking of Fitbit - sleep, weekly reports, etc. Seems pretty durable. Will need to find out how to clean it since I wear it everyday. LOL.

    I'm a retired operating room RN, & in almost 40 years I have NO idea how many thousands of miles I've walked (& run) at work. To keep in shape in retirement, I've started walking twice a day, for at least 30 minutes each time. Our neighborhood is very hilly, so I have many options for how strenuous (or not) I make my walk. This Charge HR is perfect for me; I know how far I've walked, how many steps, etc. I like being able to check my heart rate at a glance, having had past issues with rapid heartbeat, which has resolved with being in better physical shape. By syncing the FitBit, I can check my progress anywhere, & plan my activities for the week. You can even track meals/calories on the site, & find friends who also use a FitBit to keep up with them as well! Now I WANT to get out & walk everyday.....this makes it fun to see your progress!!

    Help to Lose Weight

    This new fitbit Charge HR will hopefully help me lose the weight that I need to. It is awesome as it shows the time, steps walked, pulse, heart rate, and so much more. The only thing is I wish there was a medium size as I bought the small because the large would be too big and the small is just big enough.

    I purchased this Fitbit because of it's feature of giving my heart rate. I have to watch my HR due to it racing from a side effect of chemotherapy. My fitbit heart rate was EXACTLY the same as when my cardiologist took it. VERY IMPRESSIVE! Love how it also tracks my sleep documenting for me my sleep patterns on certain days of medication affecting my sleep. VERY HAPPY with my fitbit!!

    Fitbit HR Activity Tracker is good choice for me. It tracks more then just steps, it let you know your sleep rhythm,and heart rate. The fitbit app lets you keep track of calories intake & burned. I find this very helpful.

    Small size is really small, I don't have big wrists at all and it is on the last notch. Other than that this is great, counting calories in and out, steps, stairs, heart rate, miles walked and active minutes all seems to be pretty accurate.

    It works as prescribed, helps keep me motivated. I strive to get my steps in and keep up with my water intake. I jog 6 times around my neighborhood and I have been able to determine that its 2 1/2 miles. I do not use the food log, but the sleep monitor is great. The only down side is that the battery life is 3 days opposed to 5 as advertised. I disabled the caller Id feature but that only prolonged the batter for a 3rd day. Over all, its a good product save for the misleading battery life info.

    Easy to use. Love the heart rate monitor feature. Seems to be fairly accurate. Only thing is I wish I had ordered a large. Small is really small. I don't have big wrists, and I need to keep mine on the smallest hole.

    I love my Charge HR. I previously had the Flex before upgrading. I wanted the HR feature. Easy to use and clean. I also love the sleep tracking - it knows when you're sleeping - so you don't have to manually input or tell the app.

    I teally like this tracker and the different elements of competition that can be done. I'm very competitive so that will be an encouraging factor towards achieving my fitness goals. One thing that I don't care for is the customer service. When you report an issue it seems that no time is taken to read what you actually wrote but instead you receive a scripted response. That was very discouraging especially when this is such a popular device. It would be nice to see a more detailed break down of one's activities especially in terms of distance and time. The battery life could be better but hey what do I know. Overall it's a good device and when properly used it can help improve overall health and fitness.

    Great Motivator - My issues are not big ones

    Within just three weeks of buying my FitBit Charge HR, I dropped 7 pounds and I've got more energy. In fact, walking is an addiction. At my last Dr. Appointment, besides thyroid issues for which I already take medication, my doctor warned me about my A1C (sugar) AND cholesterol. I'm in my 50's and I'm not dramatically overweight, just maybe 15-20 pounds. I now am motivated to walk my steps every day and do a workout. And I really do watch what I'm eating, both quantity and quality. Fitbit makes me keep tabs on myself. My only disappointment is that Fitbit does need to be charged about every 3rd day. So I charge it while I shower. If I had a wish list I would add waterproofing to it's list of pluses and I would improve that battery life. But this Fitbit, with the help of the App/Website is an asset in the war on weight and for better health. I hope to impress my doctor when I return in a few months. I've already recommended this one to my brother's fiancé, who recently suffered a stroke at 42.

    I had the Fitbit flex as my first one. Using the app with it help utilize more of its features. I liked how small it was too. But it kept unsnapping and caused me to loose it. I received the Fitbit HR as a gift and I love it. I like having the time and date because now I don't have to wear both my fitbit and watch. However, it is a little too bulky for me. I like having all of the tracking features on the band itself instead of having to open the app. I love the sleep feature. I don't get good sleep so I find it very interesting when I go in and look.
