    Tigerseven4 - I had a Fitbit Flex. Key word is HAD. I found it to be so inaccurate that I finally just tossed it. Didn't count stairs hardly ever and the steps - no accuracy at all. It really measured your arm movement more. I'd save my money and purchase a different brand.

    I have a FitBit Charge HR and love it. Doesn't seem to be too off as far as accuracy goes and it also has an accelerometer, HR monitor and barometer (for going up 10 feet, not necessarily stairs) so it helps with knowing a little better how many calories you burn.

    Obviously, it is not perfect but it is better than throwing in numbers from MFPs allotted exercises.
