Review on πŸ”’ Meliya Metal Bands: Stylish Magnetic Lock Replacement Wristbands for Fitbit Alta & Alta HR - Small, Gold by Nicholas Kanat

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Sticks to everything!

I bought a replacement mesh strap for my Fitbit Alta from another seller (POY) a few years ago and I really like it. It was easy to turn on and off and stylish. The only downside was that the magnetic snap was attracted to my washing machine, pantry door organizer, pergola, refrigerator door, or any other steel object. But it wasn't a major inconvenience because it was so easy to readjust and secure the strap. The only material it snagged on was the fluffy blanket, which could have snagged anything anyway. This tape lasted 3 years until the mesh strap broke from the metal clasp. I ordered this group as a replacement, thinking they were similar enough. Well, not all mesh belts are created equal. The edges of this strip are very rough. He clings to EVERYTHING - clothes, bedding, anything cloth that comes near him. I use my Fitbit to keep track of my sleep and this group pulled snags and holes in one of my silk pillowcases. I am absolutely dissatisfied with the purchase and cannot recommend this brand. I am ordering another mesh band from the first company I bought from and I hope it is the same quality as my original. If not, I'll buy a silicone strap that I know won't snag on my clothes.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and chunky
