Kangoo Jumps?? Worth the price??

I have seen these for a while and really want to try them. I have been debating on buying them but they are expensive. Has anyone tried them? Are they worth the price?

    Weight loss comes from a calorie deficit.

    I had to Google it.

    Ummm, no. I see nothing but injury happening here.

    They look like a ton of fun. I can't afford them but I think great cardio workout.

    Lol those look ridiculous. I'd be embarrassed to wear them, and the $250 price tag doesn't help. Like lolowolf said, you're not going to see weight loss just from buying/using those. That mostly comes from your diet.

    Well I already see weigh loss from my diet. I guess I should have explained better. I walk 5 times a week. And I want to try something different and that burns more calories.

    0/10 would not recommend purchasing them. Waste of money!!

    Then buy them. You're asking us to validate your spending. If you have to ask if something is worth it you probably already know that it's not.

    If you want to buy them.. buy them. Search reviews on google and other sites and watch youtube videos. I would much rather spend $250 on classes at the gym, rollerblades, a bike, etc.

    I think there are better routines you could invest your time/money into than the boots. Gym membership maybe?

    You don't have to be rude. I am not trying to validate my spending. I am asking if anyone else has every used them. That is just like reading reviews. I am asking opinions. If you have never used it then don't answer. Simple as that.

    My response wasn't meant to be rude.You asked how you could burn more calories I suggested lifting weights.

    i don't get what they are for, is it like roller skates? just something fun to strap on your feet for the hell of it? or is it supposed to make a workout harder/easier?

    @ LindsayLinea.....I have a pair and they are sooooo much fun!!!! I say if you want them, buy them!!! Of course, living in Canada, their usage is short lived as summers are short but I would still give it a fun-factor of 10!!!

    Thank you suemcmurry... I live in Texas so I could probably use them year round. I think they would be great to add more excitement to my walks in the morning.

    In all honesty though I'd be concerned about twisting an ankle or something like that with those.

    Well I read that it is actually very low impact and better on your joints. I am interested in it.
