I should probably win a Stupid Human Award for the number of times I have purchased a new Fitbit product because of a crummy strap. Maybe 4, 5? Ugh. This one is about 18 months old.  Totally dissatisfied.

I understand your frustration, but you don't need to buy a new product every time a band breaks.  The bands are replaceable, either at the fitbit store here, or Amazon has a wide variety of third-party straps at reasonable prices.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

Thanks for your response. My previous model (I forget what it was called, maybe the Charge?) did not have a replaceable band option at the time it crapped out on me.  And I am aware that I can get replacement bands, but that wasn’t really my point. 18 months life expectancy with normal wear is unacceptable. I guess I wasn’t really looking for a response, just mad and needed to vent. Thanks though.
