Design flaw in band - Anyone else have this issue?

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

I love my Fitbit. I use it everyday and have since I got it over a year ago. I've had my Fitbit replaced 3 times in the year I've had it. I'm still having the same issue and now I'm out of warranty.

 

The band connects to the pebble with a pin that clips into the plastic holder on the side of the pebble. The little plastic piece in which the pin clips into keeps breaking. So, it's not the band that breaks, it's what holds the band.

 

I basically sit on at a desk, walk and do yoga. I'm not hard on it. Today it broke when I leaned over my bed to grab my pillow and leaned on my wrist. Another time it broke when I dried my hands with a hand towel. I can't be the only person who's had this problem?

 

Fitbit replaced my pebble each time. However, now that it's out of warranty, they won't replace it. They did give me a discount to purchase a new one. But I don't want to purchase another one just to continue having the same problem. I'm looking for recommendations on which products have a more substantial design and less likely to break over and over again. Thoughts?

I'm also on my third Charge 4 with the same issue!! This is unbelievable that they don't admit there is a design flaw. Next time I will be out of warranty and have to buy something else and it won't be a Fitbit!
