The Fitbit is small enough to keep on your waistband especially when you don't want to have additional items on your writs. It pairs beautifully with your smartphone. Customer service is great. Love the information it provides.

Replacement for one I lost while travelling. Basic product that performs reliably and is easy to set-up. Recommend it for anyone who doesn't want to wear one of the watch-style Fitbit products.

We didn't keep ours very long. The two reasons were:
1) My wife wanted the sleep tracking
2) She was worried that this might come off here pocket or what ever she clipped it to and she would lose it.
I don't know how easy it is for number two to actually happen but she would have continued to worry about it and it would distracted her.
While we had it we were not disappointed with how it performs. So, if you are not interested in tracking your sleep and aren't worried that you will lose it then it is a good product for the price.
The online profile is nice. You can log your food intake and easily compare your calories in vs your calories out.
My only complaint is that it doesn't sync with all phones and Fitbit does not have an app yet for Windows phones.

Good for the average walker keeping track of weekly walks. Helps to track progress and an aid for reporting to doctor for medical records. Only downside is that there is no charger - uses a button type battery.

It's easy to clip on my clothes every day and check it as the day progresses. I haven't had the time to complete the online profile so I have not taken advantage of the calorie and diet information, based on what I am eating.

I have one myself and bought this as a gift. I love this for tracking my daily steps. It has made me very conscious of the times I am not active. I highly recommend this product to anyone from a health standpoint.

Setup takes a few minutes, after that it works. Only caveat is that even after syncing sometimes data doesn't show up right away. Have to move between data points from previous day. Battery working strong 2 months in

This fitbit is amazing, I didn't want to go for the flex because I don't like having to wear anything around my wrist, and it definitely is the more affordable one, if you don't need to track you sleep this will do great. I basically forget to wear this some days because it's just so small. And it's fun to keep track and have competitions of who gets more steps in the day. The battery last a long time, it's not rechargeable but for the few months I've used it it's still works. The display is easy to read.

I like the visual of the number of steps I walk daily. It inspires me to want to do more. You do need to be careful where you clip it - can fall off.

Liked it better than the bracelet since it can be 'hidden' under your clothes. The first one I got did not work, but the second one did and I was glad I kept it. Has increased my activity quite a bit.

I bought this as a raffle prize and thought it was a great way to get someone moving. Let them get excited about their accomplishments. Something tangible and they can see it immediately. The winner LOVED it!

The Fitbit Zip doesn't have many of the features of more advanced fitness trackers, but what it does, it does very well. If you want to mainly track steps, this is a great, affordable tracker.

When compared with all the different tracking products out there, the fitbit zip is good. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles but when compared to other products with the same features it is great.

I wanted a Fitbit to help motivate me to walk more (I sit a lot at the computer during the day) and researched each type of Fitbit before deciding on this one. I decided that I really didn't need to track my sleep and that this one would work for what I needed. I also didn't want to wear it on my wrist each day or wear it to bed. Plus I wasn't sure if I really wanted to spend $100 on something like this, so those are the reasons I went with this one. I initially thought I'd wear it on my hip or in my pocket, but surprisingly, it works really well on my bra and is not even noticeable most of the time. (I think this would vary on the type of shirts you wear and your bra size/style.) The clip is very tight and I have no worries about it staying on my bra. It seems more secure there than perhaps on my hip or somewhere else.
I rarely look at the screen and use the iphone app to check it throughout the day. Sometimes I check it the website as well and both work great and have all the information I need. I haven't started tracking food or water intake yet, but might in the future.
It defaults to 10,000 steps a day as your goal, but I would recommend starting it out a lower goal (I chose 6000) and work your way up. I've been using it about a month and on a really good day, I get about 8000, but plan to increase my daily walks soon (once the the summer heat wears off!).
Best Buy shipping was quick too!
