Find Best Price at Amazon"I found the Fitbit to be an incredible fitness device compared to the Apple watch. The fitbit can also track sleep, and give you an estimate of your cardio fitness score (V02 Max). Other features: Clearly the fitbit is not a smart watch, but the text and call notifications are great when you're working out and don't have quick access to your phone. Accuracy: Tie. I have no idea what the negative reviews are talking about (Maybe they received a defective device or have exceptionally hairy arms?). The apple watch is slightly more accurate when it comes to distance, and probably more suited for someone who runs at a competitive pace. I love watching my cardio fitness score change and keeping an eye on my resting heart rate overnight. Apple has a ton of 3rd party apps which are great, but it lacks the complete integration of the fitbit. I haven't decided which one I will be keeping yet, but if I were basing my decision on fitness alone, at a non competitive level, I would choose the fitbit hands down. There are other useful features that make the Apple watch appealing in my line of work, so I'll have to weigh those into my decision. The apple watch doesn't have the same coolness factor with regard to fitness, and really doesn't motivate me to workout anymore than my iPhone would. It is perfect for someone who doesn't care about tracking fitness goals, but wants to leave their phone at home during a workout. The ability to stream music, track distance with a built in GPS, and respond to text messages are wonderful.

"As a Blaze and original Charge HR owner, figured I'd try my hand at the newest Fitbit Charge 2. It replaces the original best selling Charge & Charge HR.

The Charge watch has been the workhorse of the fitbit line. Since you're familiar with the Charge already, let's go over some of the issues you may have experienced and highlights/common questions answered: 1) Build Quality: The Charge 2 is a far far superior quality than the original Charge. **If you had problems with your original Charge band bubbling, the ability to swap bands and how the tracker is connected to the bands should eliminate the issues you have experienced ** Obviously way too early to make a call on how the device will hold up, but given my experience with Blaze & Alta, this feels similar in build quality, if not better, and neither of those devices have suffered from bands falling apart on a wide scale. 5) Display is nice, 4x larger than the original Charge. The font is a bright offwhite, as opposed to the original Charge that had a soft almost blue to it. Some display day & date, and most have option to where when you tap the display it will cycle through stats (may display heart rate, date, steps taken, how far you are in your goals, your hourly movement reminders, etc).

There is no 3rd party support at this time such as facebook, instagram, etc (The Blaze watch will be offering these soon in next software upgrade, so I guess there is hope the Charge 2 will get those as well). Heart rate was spot on as it usually was with original Charge HR & my Blaze. Obviously some folks have trouble with them due to body hair and whatnot, but the sensors on Charge HR, Blaze, and now Charge 2 seem to be spot on. An issue I had with the original Charge was it getting "lost" when I hit higher cardio levels. CONS: - vibration is notably weaker than the original Charge. The Charge HR slowly scrolls texts and notifications to you, which can be annoying if you're used to the Blaze. They serve their purpose well though, and I can't ding it for this as it's a step up from the original Charge. The Blaze is their high end product at the moment, but the Charge 2 is a very close second. I'll happily answer questions as I did for when I originally reviewed the Blaze out of the gate, and edit this review to reflect common questions or any issues I face as I put the device through its paces in the coming days."

Find Best Price at Amazon"After researching many other hitch racks, I bought this Pro Series rack for a long trip from Georgia to Utah and back. The "stinger," which is the part that slides into your vehicle receiver hitch, has an upward bend that gives the rack more ground clearance. Another advantage of the extra ground clearance is that the rack sits high enough that it is totally protected by the vehicle. As you drive, the rack is in the vehicle's slipstream, so there's no additional drag that reduces gas mileage as you drive. With some racks, you might risk having the exhaust melt your cargo bag. Buy a locking hitch pin on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009V1WS4/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_10), which is helpful to keep the rack from being stolen while you're spending the night in a hotel. The hitch tightener will prevent that wobble, so as you're driving down the road and hit a rough patch, you won't hear a bumping sound from the hitch rack behind you. Buy a quality cargo carrying bag to use with your rack. The bag also comes with built in lashing straps so you can secure the bag to the cargo rack. If you are looking at other hitch racks, don't get caught up in how much weight they will hold. You will also want to check the tongue weight rating on your vehicle to see if your vehicle can even withstand 500 lbs of tongue weight. As I was driving across the country, I saw many other vehicles with hitch racks."
"This is a very rugged rack."
"I like the tight mesh floor, but if you use the Pro Series 7330 Stretch Net Cargo Net it is hard to get the large plastic hooks into, so I got creative with a combo of hooking to rails and wrapping under to hooks from other side of net."
"12460 TELESCOPIC SAFETY FLAG. For legality reasons, rear side markers in the form of 1" red reflector tape trimmed to height of vertical side supports (Purchased at local hardware store but similar to the product below). Salzmann Waterproof Diamond Grade 3M Scotchlite reflective stickers. StowAway Hitch Tightener. License plate relocation with light for DOT compliance: LAMPHUS Cruizer Horizontal Bar Clamp Mounting Kit 1"/ 1.5"/ 1.75" (Includes 1 clamp). Peterson M436B Clear License Plate Light with Steel Bracket. The mounts/clamps for the license plate did not fit snug enough over the square tube, but this was fixed with a small 1-1/2" long piece of serpentine belt placed into one of the side of the mount before placing over the bar."

"I have since stuck this tape to my: backpacking packs, helmet, medi packs, shoes, tent, zipper pulls, rope, and various little things that fell into my path as I went nuts with reflective tape. -I'll need to anyway- I ran out and I still need to tape my motorcycle jacket and pants!!!"

Find Best Price at Amazon"Highly recommend this for night exercisers."
"One of the plastic cables used to transmit the LED light has broken within 6 months and reduced the usability of the item. This means it can run longer on a low charge but will remain in the red (low battery indicator) for a long time before the batteries finally die. The vest will turn red when the battery is low so I don't recommend choosing red as your default colour. The toggles do slide as you move and I've found I've had to constantly adjust the harness. The toggles also create kinks in the plastic cables which cause damage over time. PROS: Lightweight. Easily adjustable sizing. Compact size. Multiple colour options. High illumination factor. CONS: Not rechargeable. Flimsy feeling design. Price."
"The colors are so bright and visible at night to the point where it's almost impossible for someone not to notice you wearing it."
"This is by far the best visibility vest I've ever had, I don't usually run in the dark but when summer comes and you have a marathon training, I'd prefer to run early try to avoid the heat."
"My only complaint is the glow sticks seem to be too long and I can't figure out how to tighten them so they don't fall off my shoulders while running."
"I run primarily after work and typically in the dark in a suburban neighborhood with plenty of traffic. One evening I was driving through my neighborhood when I was complete caught off guard by a runner which got me thinking safety options for myself. Cars can see you coming or going giving them a chance to avoid you and the extra safety measure."
"I wish the big flashing part was on the front, because on a bike one is more likely to be hit because a car doesn't see you coming (been there, got the disfiguring facial scar). Combined with our full face helmets and light weight motorcycle jackets and steel toed shoes other cyclists now jokingly say 'stay safe'. Solves the red-green blindness problem with red blinkys too."

Find Best Price at Amazon"The three pairs I purchased are these: VitalSox Graduated Compression Performance Exercise Socks, ABD Athlete Compression Socks, and Physix Gear Compression Socks for Men & Women. Important issues for me included: Length (long enough to go to the top of my calf just below the knee), Support (a good sense of compression support through the foot, ankle and calf), comfort (ability to wear all day without being overly constrictive at the top band, but also not sagging throughout the day), and fit (I’m 5’10”, 195 lbs., size 9 shoe, with fairly large legs – 17” calf, 10” ankle). VitalSox – This is a comfortable compression sock that comes just below the knee cap and has a nice wide top band and a nice thicker footbed for comfort. Because sizing of compression wear is really based on both calf and foot size, I was concerned that the Medium might be too tight in the calf, but that is not the case. These socks have a fairly narrow top band, but because they are long enough (come up to the bottom of the knee cap), and wider at the top, they are very comfortable to wear all day, and provide nice, noticeable support throughout the foot and leg."
"I stand for over 9 hours a day at work, so I can't begin to explain how badly my legs and feet ached."
"I'm a nurse with varicose veins, (no pain or swelling from it) but I work 12+ hours a shift and my feet are killing by the time I go home. The colors are vibrant ( I have pink and blue) I hope they make more colors soon:). At the end of each shift, I can honestly say I don't have the foot pain like before and I do have more energy."
"Sizing was a bit off - I'm a women's 9.5 but the large was way too big, but did fit my husband's size 13 foot."
"Had to pull on the toe area to give it extra room but it didn't stay there. I wore the socks about 10+ hours but I didn't feel that relief many reviewers spoke off. I do NOT recommend these socks as after surgery care for prevention of DVT's or to limit swelling."
"Very flawed, cheap, Chinese design."

"My son just turned 16 on March 16th last month, and is constantly wanting new sunglasses. They come with a very nice protective zip up case that protects them, a quality card from Dudema with all the needed customer service/warranty info (thanks Dudema, would have lost it), a microfiber cleaning cloth and a drawstring bag. Vision: The polarized lenses are excellent (work really well here in hot & sunny Louisiana!). Sturdiness: My son is rough on shades, he has broken at least 2 pair of Oakleys since last Christmas. He has dropped these down a flight of stairs and he has put them down on his old 3- wheeler, popped a wheelie, and knocked them to the ground."

"These did a great job of keeping the sun out of my eyes while I was running, and while during my runs the glasses did a great job of staying up on my face and not slipping down on my nose and falling to their grisly death."

"I am no professional runner - I am that person that you see running and you do a pity nod and say "good for you, friend". I bought these on impulse without doing much research because I was tired of searing my corneas every time I went out for a run."

"One of them worked properly, but the other had a defective seal around the base of the nozzle and ingests air while you drink."
"I double-checked that the straw had been cut to the correct length (the 2 straws that some with this lid are not pre-sized for the specific flask)."
"This is a good option to have besides the twist off lid handle that comes with it."
"The actual Hydro Flask straw lids are 5 star awesome, but I believe the product I received from this Amazon listing is a fake. The listing says Hydro Flask is the manufacturer, so there is obviously an intentional deception somewhere along the line. Surprised, I checked it out a little more carefully, and I noticed several differences: 1) The other lids have the registered trademark symbol after the words "Hydro Flask" in the prominent oval on the lid. It may be only of aesthetic significance, but there are ridges from injection molding and irregularities in the mouthpiece. So, 1 star: because first I'm extremely annoyed my kid has been drinking through a moldy mouthpiece, because second a $10+ LID ought to last more than a couple months, because third I don't like scams! Besides ripping off customers, these fakes hurt legitimate businesses."
"The ones I have purchased from other local retailers (3 of them) have worked without a hitch."
"At first I thought it was my own mistake, not closing the lid tightly, but after tipping the bottle on it's side I noticed that water was leaking out of the end of the mouthpiece where the lid pivots to open."
"Looked on their website to see which top worked with the size bottle I bought and it was the standard size."

"Love this -- no weird coating to flake off into your food; I leave mine outside basically all summer and treat it like an extension of the grill."
"If I'm not super careful, the slats snag and rip fingernails, which I keep trimmed very short to begin with."
"Lets the smoke and the juices go through, while still having a good smooth surface to keep foods from getting stuck."
"It's strong and easy to handle with proper gloves."
"I placed it on the grill mat but I don't think it cooked very fast that way."
"Perfect for cooking veggies while making meat on the other side of our 4 burner grill."
