  • Apple Watch is too much. This is perfect Sep 15, 2023

  • Great for the price. Help keep track of feed times, use for my silent alarm, and the night feeds I forgot to check time for I was able to check my sleep log to see what time I was awake Jun 11, 2023

  • I loved my Fitbit, but after upgrading to an Apple Watch, the features just don’t compare. Nov 20, 2022

  • Overpriced pedometer and heart rate monitor. I’ve had a charge 3 which had problems with the screen dying early which they refused to fix and the 5 which has a strap that made my wrist raw. Sep 26, 2022

  • I used this for a while before I bought my apple watch. In my opinion I like the apple watch better but this is a good option for people that want to be less "connected" to their phone Sep 09, 2021

    I actually returned this product to Target. I didn't like it at all. I felt as if it wasn't accurate and whenever I moved my arm, it counted as a step. Jul 23, 2021

  • Best tracker for low cost Jul 16, 2021

  • One of my favorite products. It helps me to stay on track with my health and fitness. I also love that Fitbit stands behind their product when there are issues, and they keep improving on the trackers Jun 26, 2021

  • The charge is great! I honestly thought I was fairly active but this is showing me I’m actually not! It’s helping me realize I need to work on my health more and has ways to help as well. Jun 03, 2021

  • Great starter smart watch. Love the features for tracking sleeping and steps, text messaging notification. Apr 15, 2021

  • I try walking for about 15-20 minutes after every meal, so that I stay active during this pregnancy. The Fitbit is super useful for me to track my miles and activity level! Mar 19, 2021

    Great postpartum gift for the husband and wife to get back in shape together. I like the fact your can challenge each other which makes it a lot more fun. Feb 24, 2021

  • I have the charge 3 and love it. I set my goals and achieve them almost every day because of having 2 toddlers. Sep 01, 2020

    This is a nice device. I wish it was waterproof. Mar 29, 2020

    Like the accountability of joining friends on challenges and reminders to move throughout day to reach goals. Dislike how wide it is and silicone band not very stylish for professional settings. Oct 20, 2019

  • Easy to set up and use. I liked how it was user friendly for someone new to activity trackers. Aug 01, 2019

  • Love it! Very practical and can be worn with anything given the right band. Love competing with my family! Really helps me stay productive in the gym as well. Comfortable and okay battery life. Jul 27, 2019

  • Loved my Fitbit for about 6 months then the band started to break and I just took it off and replaced it with a Apple Watch that was way better. Fitbit was not the best quality for your money Jul 11, 2019

  • I used this everyday for two years. Worked great and handled the beating I constantly put it through. Jun 07, 2019

  • Got this for my husband a few years ago. It’s so nice and has great features, but he lost interest in it quickly even though he plays soccer and is active all the time. Now he has an Apple Watch. May 30, 2019

    I bought this for my husband and he loves it. It helps him keep track of his health as well as incoming messages. Helps him monitor health and stay productive. May 21, 2019

  • I have a love hate relationship with this. It tracks my fitness and steps...but also my sleep! At least I know why I’m so tired and can tell you exactly when and how many times my baby was up! May 01, 2019

  • I got this for my husband and he loves it. He wears it all the time until he has to charge it. This helps him track his steps, sleep, and easily access messages. Apr 02, 2019

  • I do love my Fitbit. I love seeing how much sleep I get and it really keeps me on track Mar 18, 2019

  • Had a Fitbit prior to being pregnant, but it helped so much to have one during and after. Great for logging sleep hours and making sure I stay active! Good to have someone keeping tabs on mom too! Mar 18, 2019

    • BERWYN , Pennsylvania

    This is forcing me to keep active through this pregnancy even though all I want to do is sit doing nothing. Love the sleep tracker functionally too Mar 02, 2019

  • I have this and truly enjoyed it the first few months/year that I had it - love the ability to change out the bands, and just the ease of seeing but battery life wore out and bands broke (twice) Jan 15, 2019

  • Received this as a Christmas present and at first it wad fun to track steps, but the Battery life became bad after the first year, the band keeps breaking off and have to use super glue to fix it. Nov 25, 2018

  • My Charge HR and ended up getting warrantied 3 times within a year due to the band falling apart. My 3rd one broke after the year and they would not stand behind it. Not meant for 24h a day usage. Nov 15, 2018

  • Literally cannot say enough good things. Mine got ran over yes RAN OVER cracked and all and still works like a dream. Just isn't the prettiest now. I just wish the charge 2 was waterproof. Charge 3 is Nov 15, 2018

  • Great for tracking steps postpartum and sleep patterns. Also tracks my heartrate for SVT episodes so I can share with my cardiologist Nov 07, 2018

  • Work great with helping track my sleeping and exercising. Oct 17, 2018

  • I love my Fitbit Charge! I've had mine for over a year, now that I'm pregnant it is even more useful! It helps me monitor my heart rate & make sure I'm not overworking myself! Plus I track my sleep! Oct 09, 2018

  • After the band started to fail just outside of a year, Fitbit's only solution was a 15% discount for another watch. This happened to several friends whose Fitbits fell just outside the warranty. Sep 10, 2018

  • I've had the charge hr & charge hr2 and love them both!Love that it helps me to track my sleep and activity,time,and set reminders for myself.Their warranty is second to none too. Must have for me! Aug 30, 2018

  • Helps me keep on goal of getting my steps in for the day Aug 28, 2018

  • Love this. Works so well for keeping me active all day. Jul 19, 2018

  • I especially loved this while being pregnant because of the HR monitor. Jul 06, 2018

  • Love being able to track my movement each day and challenge myself Mar 20, 2018

  • I love tracking my sleep and heart rate. Lots of nice other features too. Feb 23, 2018

  • The text and call alerts are nice when your feeding and rocking and don't have your phone with you or it's buried in your pocket. And you can see how little sleep you're getting with the sleep tracker Feb 15, 2018
