    I use the Fitbit Flex, have had it for just over a year. My main complaint is that charging every 4-5 days is a pain, esp. since the charger is horrible (you have to put it in a weird position, hold it down, etc.). It has really changed my behavior, I consistently get 10K steps+ on weekdays, and walk places more. Also the my first band wore out after taking out the tracker to charge so many times, so had to get a new band.

    I also have a Misfit Flash, which was given to me by my insurance company (I get $1 in Amazon gift card rewards for every 10K daily step goal I hit). I like it because it serves as an analog clock, and it is also cheaper ($49) than usual bands. My main gripe is the tracker has to be warn skin tight to your wrist, as it does not sit very securely in the holder (no lock-in). I like it because I can also clip it to my shoes when biking and get credit for that, which is harder with the FitBit.

    Both track sleep, but I never do that, it is hard to sleep with them on...
