Yeah, it's a 1 year warrenty. Though they have been known to go above and beyond even after the one year is up.

That's good to hear. I forgot that my coworker got his replacement Charge a few weeks ago. The black material was starting to peel off so he ended up calling them and they sent him a replacement. I think it took a few business days.

As of now, I average 13k steps a day. Most I've done thus far is 19k. I'm surprised I haven't done 20k or even 30k in a day yet. That might change this weekend because I'll doing lots of walking this holiday weekend.

I'm still not sure exactly what they are or why I should use one over the free Fit app on my phone.

A lot of people don't work out with there phones. Having an actual fitbit keeps track of everything even when you don't have your phone.

Plus for those that get Fitbit's with HR monitors the phone can't do that.

Finally got around to return my Blaze for a replacement.

My wrist feels so naked and lonely without it. I hope I get my replacement back soon!

You've been blowing me away the past 2 weeks only because I have to sit my ass down at my desk and work. Otherwise, if I was caught up, I'd be making my rounds at the office and getting my steps.

At least I still do over 10,000 steps a day. Anything under that is a failure for me because I'm not the type to just sit around as I like to stretch my legs.

I usually hit 10,000 steps by 12 noon or so on a work day...I generally would hit between 17 and 18,000 steps on average.

I miss my Blaze...hurry up and get back my replacement!

Any Fitbit Aria scale owners here?

Been wearing a Charge HR for the last 6 months or so, lucked out and found it in a parking lot just had to order a charging cable. Been thinking of picking the scale up if I can find a sale around Black Friday.

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with the Aria and in particular how well you feel the BMI reader works?

i'm back!!!!

Got the Charge 2 yesterday, very nice but think I might need a screen protector on this thing.

Kudos to the Fitbit crew. My Charge started to unglue so they upgraded me to an Alta. I love how small it is; some things are frustrating, and I think I'm gonna miss seeing my floors tracked...but it is what it is. Overall I think I like it better than the Charge. That Charge 2 looks great.

Sorry to resurrect a dead thread but I just joined the club.

I've been after a Fitbit for ages but could never really justify the cost and my exercise was always too inconsistent. Now I walk on average around six miles a day as I've moved to a new part of the city and my commute is longer than before and will be even further when I move out of the temporary accommodation I am in at the minute. And while I don't feel like I do, apparently I walk like a machine so it isn't just a casual saunter. Although it does suck to always arrive at work so sweaty, you start off in all your winter gear with the frost on the ground and then half way round you've removed everything but what keeps you decent.

So I asked for one for my Birthday admittedly in some part due to a lack of need for anything else, I turned twenty six today and have a good job so generally if I need something I buy it, but also because now seems the right to make proper use of one.

I just asked for the Alta but my Dad got me the Charge 2 HR instead and the amount of features crammed into this band is awesome. Really looking forward to diving into the deep range of tiles on the app and abilities of the device to make for a better me moving forward.

I kinda want one too since my Garmin doesn't count steps and my Google Health app sucks at counting steps. Maybe I should look for that Fitbit I bought awhile back...
