Just curious as to what Fitbit everyone has and if you think it's worth the money that you spent on it.

    I have the fitbit Charge HR and I personally think it is. It allowed me to keep track of my heart range to know how my body was burning calories.

    Blaze. Quite enjoying it so far, though it is making maintaining my surplus more expensive. Damned thing keeps making me want to move around and stuff.

    Charge HR & It was totally worth the money. It helps motivate me to move more & the heart rate monitor lets me know how hard I worked!

    Charge HR! It's the best and really helps with keeping you motivated because you can see all your calories/steps/heart rate right on you wrist! Definitely worth it!

    Charge HR. I've had it for 8 days and I'm addicted! I now purposefully walk up stairs and get up from my desk regularly just to be able to log my activity! I love getting up in the morning and logging in to see my sleep stats - more addictive than stepping on the scale ;)

    Have a Zip I wore for about 18 mo this, liked it; a Charge HR I've had since last Nov, love it; have inherited hubby's Surge, like it although a bit bulky.

    Personally I don't use a FitBit, whilst they have greatest market penetration the devices are mediocre in comparison with other ranges; Garmin, Polar. I was also struck by just how many people raved about how quickly FitBit relaced defective items, which indicates a very high failure rate for them.

    I use a Garmin VivoSmart HR, which works alongside my Forerunner Triathlon watch and Edge cycling computer. The step counter, stair counter and exertion monitoring are interesting, but not all that motivational for me. The biggest benefit is the ability to monitor my Resting Heart Rate trends over time, informing my training.

    What I can also do, which is useful, is broadcasting HR data to my Forerunner and Edge, so avoiding the need to wear a chest strap, and the associated scarring on my sternum if I'm wearing it for 2-3 hours at a time.

    Charge HR synced with MFP has been the dynamic duo in my weight loss journey.

    I have a Surge. It is bulky and the face is rather strangely sloped, but it has built in GPS, so I don't have to carry my phone with me. It was a good compromise for me as I want a wearable fitness tracker that I could also use to track distance covered on runs without needing a phone or a second device.

    Zip

    I actively dislike the concept of 24 hour HR wearable monitors

    I have a Flex. It's been giving me syncing problems lately but I still like it overall. When it dies, I think I'll upgrade to a Charge or Charge HR.

    I'm on Team Garmin as well. I had an Gen 1 VivoFit, then I got a VivoSmart HR, and just upgraded to the VivoActive HR and really like the watch. GPS, Heart Rate*, Sleep, Stairs... all that good stuff. I cannot do a Fitbit product. I go to the pool and local Water Parks way to much to worry about losing a Fitbit or leaving it behind.

    *I use the Heart Rate Monitor more as a recovery tool instead of a in workout tool, since I use a Chest Strap HRM for that.

    I have owned a Zip, a One, A Flex, A Charge HR, and now a Blaze. I think each one was worth it, which is why I keep trading up when new ones come out. I love them!
