Impressed. A $5.00 (other brand) band that outweighs a $30.00 Fitbit band? Installation took less than 10 seconds. For those that didn't comprehend the instructions stating the band needs to be at a 90 degree angle and totally screwed up you need to picture what 90 degrees (or so) is. I took a photo of the watch laying flat on the table and the installation angle that worked for me. The band is free standing at that angle, I am not holding the bands at that angle. If you have fat fingers it may be a challenge since at that angle it's tough to get your finger or fingernail in there to pull back the spring knob. Once you've done this a couple times then you'll be changing out your bands in just a few seconds. The Wepro band also seem to be a bit thicker than the Fitbit bands. That may be a positive thing or not depending on your choice of fit and feel. Just note they are thicker and don't feel as elastic as the Fitbits but they are still pliable and contour your wrist. Hope this helps.
UPDATE: 11 months later they fell apart. Almost daily use but never worn in water the area around the pin has started to disintegrate. Also the band has stretched out a bit in the last few months moving up a hole or 2 to wear. Is it worth it? Well for what I paid ($5 at the time) and 11 months of wear I'd say it's not bad. Maybe even worth it if it's a color that Fitbit doesn't offer then I'd say just go for it and replace it when it breaks. But do you want it to break when wearing your watch? potentially causing damage or altogether losing the watch? I have since ordered authentic Fitbit bands from their website for 4x the price. We'll see if it lasts 4x as long but I honestly don't think I'll have the watch that long.
