I bought a Fitbit Blaze... cost $200+. It failed 2 months after the warranty ran out (total life span of 14 months). Customer service would do nothing but offer a discount on my next purchase. Incredulously I asked them why they though I would spend $200+ on a crappy product that would last barely a year!? They added 5% to the discount... err no thanks. I have since found this is not a fluke because both my daughter an mother-in-laws Fitbits have failed (13 month and 14 month life span) with the same customer service results. Apparently Fitbits business model involves getting rubes to buy a new device every 18 months. Dont waste your money. I have switched to Garmin... better value with the same features.
