Purchased this GoPro chest moun harness after going cheap for another manufacturer. This is very sturdy and secure. Went on a cruise and wore it climbing Duns River Falls in Ocho Rios Jamaican. I was able to get great footage and photos with my wearable gimbal attached. Also wore it while doing the rope climbing challenge on the ship

The product is easy to use. My daughter used it non stop while on vacations for her swimming with sharks experience, snorkeling expedition. The harness kept her hands free to enjoy the experience and she made some really good shots.

Great once we figured out how to adjust it

When we purchased this chest strap we put it on to video a race we were doing. However, the place that you hook the go pro into had it set that the camera was facing up towards our face. We did not have the instruction manual with us when we realized it so it took us a while to figure out how to change it around. Then once we figured out how to change it around it was very difficult to unclip it to make the adjustments. Once we got the clip turned around the go pro sat in it nicely and worked perfectly.
The strap was easy to take on and off so different people could take turns wearing it. And it was easy to adjust the straps for size. It fit me...5'8" and my friend 5'2" with no problem.
Over all it is great, light weight and very easy to wear! While running and going through obstacles I hardly noticed I had it on. The only reason for 4 stars was the difficulty in changing the clip around.

Like all of the GoPro items, they are very expensive. It's made well, and it will last for a long time. I wore it several times and it fit well and stayed put during rugged activity.

A perfect gadget for a beginner

By far, one of the best gadgets ever. I am still learning on how to use it. Once you play with it, you get the hand of it right away, but overall, it is a great gadget for a beginner. I have been enjoying it during my walks with my dog in the park, the trail walk in the mountains and on my bike. I have not had a chance to try it while swimming, but I definitely will try it. My next purchase will be a harness for the dog so that I can actually see what she sees. I would highly recommend this product. Thanks!

A must have mount!

If you are a Gopro owner, this is a MUST have mount. It allows for your extremities to be featured in the video from your POV better than a headstrap mouth would (headstrap mount makes the video look like camera is floating and not on a body). It also is very stable while recording and gives great quality video. I've used it during walks, bike rides, etc. around town and get great video.

Great mount but why upside down

The mount is a high quality adjustable harness that fits just about everyone in my family. However.....the camera must mount upside down in the harness! Absolutely no way to get it in otherwise. I contacted Hero and they said it is easy to invert the video during playback and editing so what is the problem. Why not just mount it right side up? Anyway great harness and I guess I can work around the invert thing it just makes you wonder.....

Chest mount purchased for the gopro 4 silver. Perfect fit and very sturdy. Works well. Purchased for my son to film paintball games. Only problem we have found is that he is short and a lot of times on the ground therefore not filming what we want it to. I will most likely buy a head mount for him. Very pleased with the product itself.

Ok, this is a bit more a novelty thing than anything else, but it's nice to have options. This strap essentially allows you to turn the GoPro into a body cam - just set it and forget it! When used with the other available mounts, you can be sure to get every angle of the action. It fits well and is adjustable, so there were no problems getting it on.

The chesty is made of high quality materials and offers adequate adjustment points, but when put through a turbulent fall in water the straps came out of the buckles and connectors. Luckily I added a separate clip to the overall harness and that saved it from getting lost. Clips and connections points should be solid and not allow the straps to come out.

My son loves this chest mount harness. He enjoys running track with his GoPro strapped to his chest and this provides a very secure fit for the camera. The videos he produces as a result are excellent. Excellent security and utility. Great purchase.

Excellent quality like most GoPro licensed products. Worked exactly as intended, easy to use overall. Some peoples build might make it difficult to adjust straps at times but it's likely to be an uncommon issue and not worth taking off a star for.

We used this as a chest harness and also mounted on bike. Our son races dirtbike and it has withheld many elements. Don't buy an off brand that will break immediately! This is an excellent feature.

The GoPro accesories are good quality. The chest harness does put the camera at an angle that isn't desirable for all shots, but does work well for when you need your hands free and don't want to wear a helmet.

You need this chest strap. Hands down, if you're going to buy a strap, and only want to buy one. This is the one. it is comfortable, easy to access when filming, and highly improbable that it falls off your body

This is a great mount for any activity where you are facing forward. It is not so great for sideways facing activities (aka snowboarding, skateboarding). It is very comfortable and well made. It does what it should.
