Have used the Garmin Vivofit for a couple months and it functions as advertised. I was pleasantly surprised when I counted steps to see if it was accurate and it was spot on. :-) Syncing is easy and once uploaded the information automatically syncs with my work fitness program.
Likes: Accuracy and clock function
Dislike: No backlit option for the display

I have owned both the FitBit and Garmin. I like how the Garmin doesn't need to be charged every 3 days. The battery will last for a year. It also syncs with WW which is what I needed although you have to use a stand alone app to make it work correctly. Over all I am very satisfied with the Garmin.

We bought this as a gift for our daughter. So far she loves it. She likes how it tracks your daily steps, calories burned, hear rate, and distance walked as well as many more online activities. It has been a great motivator to show how much activity she performs daily and it motivates her to do more each day.

I am really enjoying my Garmin Vivofit. It seems to track sleep and steps really well and it was a great price.

I have one but this purchase was a gift. Reciever loves that it is waterproof and does not need charging, complaints she had about other products previously owned.
Only complaint is that it does not always sync automatically. Can easily initiate manually though. Not an issue just a bother.

After researching several brands I chose the Garmin for my specific needs. I also spoke with a marathon runner who used several different brands and said that Garmin was the most accurate out of the brands I was considering. I would have given this 5 stars if they offered a more stylish look for wearing in the professional work environment.

Purchased the Garmin VivoFit as a gift for my fiancee, who is a runner and tries to stay active throughout the day, especially at work. The VivoFit succeeds in notifying her when she has been sedentary for too long by having red lines display across the screen. The sleep mode is also beneficial to track movement during sleep and sleeping patterns. Not 100% certain how accurate the calories and number of step calculations are, but I would recommend this product.

I love this model because it does so much more than count your steps. The main reason I got it was for the ability to track your heart rate while exercising. It does so without any issues. The app that accompanies this is pretty decent too. Another great thing is you do not have to sync it to view your information, you can see it on your wrist. The only downside is there is no light on the display, but that was intentional for a longer lasting battery.

I find my Garmin very easy to use. I am a senior citizen and appreciate its features as well as its simplicity. I have recommended it to my friends as a motivator to get off my chair and be more active. Love the purple color!!

I like the fact that you can see steps walked on the wristband. No need to use a computer to download information. That's the reason I didn't get the Fitbit. I like to track my progress just by looking at the band. You can also see how many steps to your goal.

This was perfect for my son! He had had a Fitbit Charge HR that was replaced 2 times! He likes how this Garmin vivofit has an always on display, is waterproof, and a huge bonus NO CHARGING needed! I will say this is a good entry level activity tracker! I love Garmin products too!

I am quite happy with this: waterproof, so I can wear it swimming; monitors sleep; shows the time, so I don't need to wear my watch along with it; and reminds me to get up and move. I recommended it to my elderly roommate and set it up for her.

Wanted a tracker to motivate me to do more steps inside. Already had a GPS watch for outside. This is perfect. It will count up or down toward your goal. It will even motivate you to get up and move if you have sat for long. Plus it is easy to sync wirelessly with my computer with one button once the Garmin app is up. Really love it. Plus it has a display without syncing on the device. There is no backlight, only complaint.

I purchased the Garmin Vivofit to help me get and stay motivated. It is very easy to use and the set up was very easy. I haven't used it for very long but I'm anxious to see how well it helps with motivating a healthier lifestyle. I'm very pleased with it so far. I also purchased one for my son who also likes it very much
