Very Convenient
 
Review Date: September 3, 2009
Reviewer: Cynthia A. Edwards,
At first I thought this little gadget had a database with a lot of different foods and that it would list the calorie content of all of the foods. I thought it would also track my calories. I was right about tracking the calories, but not about it having a database. Instead it came with a book which listed the calorie content in common foods. The book is ok, but I like to figure out calories with [...]. I was disappointed at first when I found out I would have to figure out the calorie content of my foods on my own, but after a week of using it, I love it!! I've already lost three pounds! It really helps me to keep track of my calorie consumption and burning. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to lose weight. Just be careful not to go too low on your calories and eat healthy foods...they have less calories anyway!!
Life-Changer!
 
Review Date: May 26, 2009
Reviewer: Megan,
This simple device completely changed my life. I have already lost 10 pounds and it was easy....and fun! I enjoyed keeping track of my numbers each day, KNOWING I was losing weight. I have been on diets before where I would work at it and not really know how I was doing. This tells me my result every day!

And, just the fact that it makes me stop and think about what I was eating before I did, makes maintaining my new weight-loss easy!

I am so glad I found Cal Pal. I recommend it to anyone trying to lose weight.
Easy to use, and very motivating little device.
 
Review Date: April 30, 2009
Reviewer: J. Laclare, Castle Rock, CO
I bought my Cal Pal about a month ago, and I've already lost 19 pounds! I've never been able to cut back on calories, but the Cal Pal made it so easy to keep track of what I ate that it served as a constant reminder. It takes about 2 minutes to set up the first time you use it, and about 2 seconds to reset each morning.
Huge impact on my life!
 
Review Date: July 16, 2009
Reviewer: B. McCarrie,
I've had the CalPal for just over a month and I don't know how I lived without it. This handy little device goes with me everywhere. It's a constant reminder that I need to think about my calorie intake. Through the use of the Cal Pal and regular exercise I've been able to shed a few pounds and I look forward to shedding more! I never thought that such a simple device would have such a huge impact on my life. Cal Pal has empowered me to finally take control of my weight. Thanks!
Reality has sunk in!
 
Review Date: July 21, 2009
Reviewer: B. Cowan, Texas
This little gadget makes it so easy to keep your calories. I never could remember to log into the website at home or pull the book out to write it down but now I just have this with me all the time. It is small but beware because it does make reality sink in on just how many calories you are eating. Like I would sit down and eat a bunch of strawberries healthy right? Well 2 strawberries are 50 calories and that brings your calories down quick!! I have done great with this little device. You take the calories off that you eat and you can add on the ones that you burn exercising so it is easy to see how many you have left at the end of the day.
Make counting calories a breeze
 
Review Date: November 18, 2009
Reviewer: T. Borrero, Atlanta, GA USA
I had previously been counting calories off and on with the help of a few calorie counting websites. This was difficult to stick with because if I was away from my home it was impossible to really have the discipline to keep track. I'd advise those to go and purchase the Calorie King book also. The book included with the calpal has very little info data on calories in food. With this Calpal and the pocket sized Calorie King book I"m always prepared. Both are very small and discrete and it doesn't have to be a show that you are watching your food intake. I went to visit family for a week and was never approached or even noticed on my calorie counting. Yes I was quiet on this and did not enter in my numbers unless alone - but I was so impressed that I was able to "vacation" and yet stay on track. Definitely a good choice. Plus on a added note I accidentally washed my Calpal for 10 minutes in the washer. Freaked out when the screen was blank but I followed the advice from a geek website in using Rubbing alcohol to displace the water and it worked! So be sure to look up this information just in case you accidently submerge yours in water.
Excellent Product

Reviewer: R. Neale, Parker, CO USA
I am a gym rat and work out at least five days per week, but my biggest hang-up is my diet, or lack thereof. With the Calpal calorie counter, now I can control the amount of calories I consume. I never realized how many calories are in fast food. I recommend this product to everyone.
LOVE IT!!!

Reviewer: Nichole A. Stewart,
I had NO idea how many calories I was eating every day!!! This little gadget is GREAT and the book is a fabulous tool. I have kept on track with my diet and exercise, and have already begun losing weight in just one week!!! I would recommend this product to everyone.
Love the CalPal Calorie Counter!!
 
Review Date: November 11, 2009
Reviewer: Emily A. Heger, Chaska, MN
I have 4 kids under the age of 4 and have no time to be keeping track of my calories. With the CalPal, I just stick it in my pocket and type in what I need every time I eat something. It's so convenient. The instructions are really easy to follow. It's keeping me aware of what I'm eating and helping me take those extra pregnancy pounds off!
Love it!!!!!!!!
 
Review Date: July 28, 2009
Reviewer: Wendy E. Hinch,
Have been using the calpal for over 2 weeks. Absolutely love it!! Keeps me on track throughout the day. Only drawback is that it needs a leash similar to that of a pedometer so I can keep it on my waistband throughout the day. Highly recommend this product.
Love it except the reset doesn't always work.
 
Review Date: August 3, 2009
Reviewer: GGma, Arvada, CO
I'd have given this a 5 but the reset doesn't always work. Other than that, I love it! Works wonderfully well for tracking calories in and out. Just wish the reset button worked a little bit better.
CalPal Pow!

Excellent calorie tracker. Easy to use and the size is great for pocket or purse. Now, if I'd just USE it!
It works, but it feels really cheap
 
Review Date: January 30, 2010
Reviewer: S. Moss,
This item does what is says it will do, but for the twenty something I paid, I expected it to look and feel a little nicer. If I saw this at a local store, I'd expect it to have a price of $9.99 or less.
No Manual
 
Review Date: April 27, 2009
Reviewer: Brian C. Johnson, Miami, Florida
Based on my review here where I did not receive the instructions, I was sent two sets of Instructions Books and an extra Calpal.

I don't know if I can revise my rating for this device but I would now give it Four Stars. It definitely does what it professes to do, makes it very easy once set up correctly, to fairly effortlessly track your caloric daily intake. I'm having a much easier time now controlling my Caloric instake although it does take a bit of discipline.

Great gloves!
 
Review Date: August 15, 2006
Reviewer: Ramiro Anzola-Gonzalez,
I am very satisfied with this product.

These are my first gloves with extended finger length, which I find now as a big plus especially when doing wrist curls. Wrist wrap works great for me with weak wrists. Padding is very good as well, without it interfering with normal hand fold. I read some reviews commenting on how uncomfortably warm they would get when used; I personally have not felt it; what I do agree with is that taking gloves off is not easy. I found that pulling fingers out first is the less difficult way. I actually wanted to buy the newer model which allows for machine wash, but Amazon did not have L size in stock.

These minor details do not demerit the 5 star rating though.
Excellent gloves for gym workout
 
Review Date: July 9, 2009
Reviewer: Yair Even-or, israel
Well, these are truly the best top of the top gloves.
a b bit warm, not a lot air going inside, but excellent quality.

I bought this Large size, and was very disappointed to find out
i'm XL...
I never have thought to check in their site with see if the
size would fit me, because all my current gloves are Large and fits good.

Their definition of Large isn't exactly what you would expect, so
measure your hands before you order! (there's a guide in their website).
great padding, high quality build, looks and feels great
 
Review Date: July 18, 2009
Reviewer: J. Luong,
I work out 3-5 times a weeks, both machine and free weight. I'm not a heavy lifter. Usually, 10 reps (or close to that until failure), 3 sets per excercise. Just make sure you get the right size. Control and grip is perfect for me. I don't have excessive sweaty palms so no issue here.
Durable and comfortable
 
Review Date: June 19, 2007
Reviewer: Jonathan B. Skaines, Dallas, Texas
Great gloves. I'm not a heavy lifter, but use my gloves on average 3 times a week and these have held up great for about a year. I recently ordered a second pair from Amazon as the others were starting to wear out, but they held up a lot longer than other gloves I've used. The wrist strap gives extra support and I can't imagine lifting with out it now. Great gloves.
Excellent weight training gloves
 
Review Date: February 15, 2008
Reviewer: T. Hart, Anytown, USA
I have bilateral carpal tunnel and I *love* these gloves. They really help keep the wrists straight and help you keep good form. I would thoroughly recommend them. I find the padding on the palm and fingers very comfortable. Definitely worth the money.
Best I've used
 
Review Date: April 21, 2008
Reviewer: E. Hernandez,
I'm on my second pair (eventually you are going to tear them up depending on how hard you work out). Once I'm through these I'll buy them again, I have some wrist problems and these really help out a lot. The way the wrap is incorporated into the glove, IMHO, makes them more effective than just using a wrap.
I FEEL GREAT WEARING THEM

Review Date: December 21, 2008
Reviewer: Shuga Shane, Seattle, WA
I've had these gloves for about a year now working out 5 times a day and they work great. The only complaint that I have is that they are a little thick so holding on to heavier dumb bells for shrugs or holding on to the bar for deadlift is harder than without them. But I guess that's what straps are for! Other than that, they are very comfortable for any "Pushing" motion and the support on the wrist is very good.
Quick shipment, great gloves.

No complaints. These gloves are perfect for working out. Even with light weights. Provides an excellent grip. Now for the heavy lifting, these gloves provide the best support and padding. I've used Harbinger before but so far these gloves excel expectations.
Better than I thought
 
Review Date: March 31, 2009
Reviewer: Joshua Emery, Missouri
These gloves were much better than I thought they were going to be. I'd tried harbringer before and I was not very happy. These gloves on the other hand are very good and I recommend to any serious or casual weight lifters.
Great Support
 
Review Date: April 18, 2009
Reviewer: TW, Los Angeles, CA
I have used other Harbinger gloves and also cheaper clones. I would have to say this is the most supported and comfortable ones I have used. The overall quality is very good and the fit and feel are superb. It has a nice snug fit feel in the palm area and knuckles. The wrist strap help tremendously with stability holding heavy weights.

I work out about 4-5 days a week and these have been quite comfortable. My only nag about this, is the straps are long and not easy to store. (very minor and silly complaint).
OMG.. THAT'S ALL I GOT TO SAY

Having carpal tunnel in both wrists, the orthopedic dr. recommended these gloves for weightlifting and I'm thrilled. Used Valeo gloves before but, the fingers unravelled too soon, plus there wasn't enough padding in the palms. Worth the extra money.

Reviewer: T. Mayers, Sacramento, California
One of the guys in the local gym had a pair for the last three years and during that period, I have been through two pairs of weight-lifting gloves. Decided to purchase a pair under his recommendation. Excellent fit and finish. Enough padding and support to give you comfort and confidence to lift the weights and definitely not bulky to give that vague feeling. The price was very good for the quality received. Definitely recommend to casual and serious weight trainers.
Worth The Price
 
Review Date: November 17, 2009
Reviewer: P. Jackson, Detroit, MI USA
I'm cheap when it comes to buying certain things and to pay $26 for a pair of training gloves was a bit much for me. However I was tired of the cheap gloves that I had purchased allowing callus to form on my hands. When one of the guys that I work out with showed me his pair of Harbinger Training Gloves I was like, "those are nice but you paid how much?" Well I broke down and bought a pair and I'm so happy I did. They fit nice and snug with enough padding that I don't feel the weight bar or pull up bar when I'm working out. Also I have not had any peeling skin on my hands since using them.

They are well...more than well...worth the money.

THE BEST gloves EVER
 
Review Date: May 21, 2009
Reviewer: Michael Outeiral, Kearny, NJ USA
I simply cannot believe how great these gloves are!

I was sitting in my living room, and I felt something..something powerful. I looked out of my window and saw the USPS guy walking towards my house with a box in his hand, and it was then I realized that it was the gloves, and they were certainly something else...something divine.

I tore the box open, and in the process, got a pretty nasty cardboard cut on my right index finger. It actually hurt quite a bit, but as soon as I put these babies on, the cut was gone, and instead of feeling mild pain, I actually felt euphoria.

Something was peculiarly different. I felt so...strong, even though I just started weightlifting days before receiving these. I didn't want to stall any longer, so I made my way to the gym where I planned to show these off to all those beefy jerks.

When I walked into the gym, everyone stopped what they were doing (one guy even dropped the bar on his neck when he was benching and had to be rushed to the ER). As I made my way through, everyone stood aside, speechless and staring in awe.

I lay on a bench pressing bench and attempted to bench whatever weight was already on the bar without looking, confident in myself. It was effortless, and a little embarassed, I looked, expecting to see no weights on the bar at all. How wrong I was! There were 135.5 pounds on each side!

I have never taken them off since, and I find that they are so comfortable (they weren't kidding in the description when they emphasized how comfortable they are).

My life has really taken a turn for the best. I bought a scratchoff and won 10,000 dollars instantly wearing these gloves. My car ran out of gas, but went on for 25 more miles to the next gas station because I was wearing these gloves. Someone tried to spit on me, and the spit deflected right before my eyes and hit the lady that was walking next to me. And lastly, thanks to these gloves, I am able to slam dunk on a regulation-sized basketball hoop (I'm 4'9").

I definitely recommend these to everyone!

The only issue I have is that when I look into a mirror, I don't see my own reflection, I see Bruce Lee staring back. I realize this may be appreciated by most others, but I have a phobia towards orientals, so it scares me a little, but then the same security of the gloves makes me feel much better.

Reviewer: Chris Muise, USA
The gloves themselves are great, but I didn't realize the wristband was so big. I wraps and hinders my wrist. I think they are great for someone lifting really heavy weights but too much for me.
Superior Quality with Excessive Padding
 
Review Date: November 12, 2006
Reviewer: Patrick S. Pope, Chicago, IL
The suitability of these gloves depends on what type of lifting you enjoy. With padding on the palm and fingers, your entire gripping surface is cushioned. Such padding is common on bicycling gloves where hours of continuous pressure and vibration can cause numbness and pain. Yet, most serious lifters would probably forgo comfort for better control provided by unpadded gloves.

Traditional weight lifting gloves are made from durable but supple leather to prevent calluses and improve grip. The latter becomes critically important when perspiring. In my experience, having no padding is best - especially when lifting heavier weight. Basically, the compliance of the padding reduces your level of control. At the same time, there is an undesirable absorption of energy, albeit a miniscule amount.

The quality of the materials and construction of the Harbinger 1250 gloves is the best I have seen. Clearly, the expense in making these gloves is significantly higher than in other products I have owned by Nike and Gold's. Unfortunately, the generous use of thick split leather and padding provides insulation that causes excessive heat buildup. With heat comes sweat. I find myself taking these gloves off multiple times during my workout to let the sweat evaporate. It would be nice if there were perforations or large vents on the back to mitigate this problem.

While these gloves might be ideal for certain lifters who prefer comfort over control, I would counsel gym rats to purchase other gloves with less or no padding. Kudos to Harbinger for making a quality product, but these gloves aren't for everyone.


Pros
Superior materials
Excellent double stitching
Comfortable wrist wrap


Cons
Expensive
Excessive padding
No perforations to dissipate heat and perspiration
An overall good product
 
Review Date: March 26, 2007
Reviewer: Online Shopping Pro, Lawrenceville, Georgia United States
The gloves have a tight, solid feel, and are made of good materials. The manufacturer describes a new feature, "Innovative curved finger design that offers a natural, flexible and comfortable fit". That sounds good, but does not add any real comfort to the glove. You still have the excess padding when making a fist that makes it more difficult to grab the bar.

Pros:

Solid feel; good padding; good materials, overall design and craftsmanship; the "No Sweat" wicking system seems to work and there is no dark residue left on the hands after the workout, which is not the case with most manufacturers using cheaper materials.

Cons:

Excess inner padding affecting the grip; no "easy-off" feature offered by many other manufacturers; a wrist wrap that takes some tweaking to be comfortable.
Extremely comfortable but they don't last!
 
Review Date: July 25, 2009
Reviewer: maskedgamer,
I've bene using these gloves for about a year. Compaired to other gloves these aren't exactly cheap so I expected them to last. They feel tight and stiff at first but once you break them in they are great. They have provided me with the best comfort I've ever felt in a lifting glove. They have nice thick straps for excellent lifting support. I haven't felt my wrist ache from lifting in a long time. My old Valeo gloves were so bad I used to wrap my wrist in ace durring workouts and on off days. These seemed to cure the simple issue. The padding is pretty thick so sometimes griping the bar doesn't feel so "natural" you have to work around the padding from time to time. It's not necessarily a bad thing since the gloves are doing their job, but if you like gloves that give you that "raw" feeling these aren't them. I workout about 4 days a weak. Moderate lifting sometimes heavy. When lifting heavy weight I have noticed that the gloves tend to cost you your grip. Sometimes I ever take them off to get a better hold on the bar. These are good if your doing bench presses, shrugs under 100lbs, pulldowns,hammerstrength machines etc. For hard serious lifting I'm still up in the air. They will keep your palms safe, but the gripfactor can be a pain. To clear everything up when I say grip I mean your "grip form." The gloves themselves stick to everything so bar slip isn't something you need worry about.

My only real problem with these gloves is that they are falling apart on me. The inner portion has holes in the center of the palm portion and holes all along the finger portions. I can see the insulation starting to come out...not very good at all. Kinda dissapointed me. I would buy these gloves again, they seem to feel great so it's worth it but I only wished they lasted longer.
Feels great
 
Review Date: July 13, 2007
Reviewer: M. Getchel, GySgt / USMC
These gloves are by far the best I've ever owned. The gel takes up much of the pressure and the wrist straps are very comfortable. If you are looking for a new set of gloves, these are it. The gloves run a bit small so I had to order another set from Med to Lg. These gloves you can tell were built to last. Very well made and easy to clean. These gloves do not shrink like others I've had. But these and you won't be disappointed.
parkour gloves
 
Review Date: April 15, 2009
Reviewer: R. Moore, Philadelphia, PA
I purchased these gloves so my son could try out a new sport called "parkour". He has reported to me that the gloves are great. They save his hands from concrete abrasions and the open design helps to grip railings and walls. Great product, Great price! what more can I say?

Training Glove Review
 
Review Date: September 2, 2009
Reviewer: Ron W, Saratoga Springs, NY United States
I have used many different types of gloves over the years to train with, but I must say these gloves are definitely the best I have used. I like the gel feature in the gloves which gives the hand protection. My only complaint is the wrist wrap portion of the glove. I'm used to an elastic wrap, which seems to work better for supporting the wrist. The support on this glove doesn't give at all and it's hard to really get it tight around your wrist. Overall though, I would have to say this is definitely a great glove, and would highly recommend it to anyone who wants a lifting glove to train with.
Good Protection
 
Review Date: September 10, 2009
Reviewer: JHNLZN, En mi Cuerpo
Gloves fit great and offer great protection. Early on the finger padding was a bit of a nuisance but has since shaped more, fits hand well when holding or pushing bars. The padding is still a bit much to go straight into pull ups or chin ups.

Overall good lifting gloves, would definitely purchase again.
not enough padding
 
Review Date: December 1, 2009
Reviewer: Clarence A. Williams, Army, Afghanistan
I wanted some weight lifting gloves with wrist support. The hand part doesn't have enough padding should be thicker. I lift very heavy weights and the bar feels like it's right in my hand it self. I still recommend this glove.
Excelent Option
 
Review Date: December 21, 2009
Reviewer: Dalia Ferraro, Caracas, Venezuela
These gloves are an excelent option to use them at a gym.

I like the cushion fit and the wrist band that protects you of the bending of your wrist. Are very confortable.

But i really don't like the feeling of the glove, seems to be weak and a poor made plastic. In a long term use, seems to scratched.
Good Gloves
 
Review Date: September 23, 2005
Reviewer: JD,
These gloves are comfortable, but I didn't realize that they were 3/4 fingers and that was a little hard to get used to. They are also really warm. But I would buy them again.

Hard Core Sit-ups
 
Review Date: June 26, 2007
Reviewer: Cattack, Redwood City, Ca
My personal trainer recommended using this smaller ball as support when doing sit-ups as it really works the core. Crunches and regular sit-ups tend not to work all the stomach muscles or is [....] the back. However, when used at base of your back, this ball really helps focus on the core muscles. I highly recommend this product.
great buy
 
Review Date: April 22, 2008
Reviewer: T. Hipona, New York, NY
I use this ball to do crunches. It works the muscles of the back in addition to the abs, and gives you amazing overall abdominal strength. It's the same product as the green Bender Ball that's advertised on TV (I bought one of those too, not as high quality). Only thing is it doesn't come with an excercise DVD, but you can buy one seperately (I just bought the "Pilates Mini-Ball Advanced Workout" coincidentally by Leslee Bender of the Bender Ball). There are many other things to do with this little guy besides abs. Very good quality and you really don't need a pump to inflate it! So cheap too!
Think small for good toning
 
Review Date: December 24, 2007
Reviewer: Jules in SA, Garden Ridge, TX USA
I ordered this mini exercise ball for use in my daily stretching. I use it every day for situps (pressed between my knees) and bicycles. I also use it to stretch backwards by arching my back over it from a sitting position. It provides good support. It is easy to keep in the living room, out of the way since it is small. Unfortunately my kids love it for a soccer ball. It did ship fast as promised. I'd recommend it.
Great for crunches!!

One of my friends bought the Bender Ball DVD's. I bought this ball to work out with her. It's perfect, just like the ball she uses. It's easy to inflate and deflate. I keep in my gym bag and it doesn't take up much space at all. I have recommended it to other friends who also bought it and think it's great.
Same results in half the effort.

I bought this ball shortly after my GF saw an infomercial on TV. This is a great, sturdy, exercise ball at a fraction of the price it goes for on TV. My GF uses it everday & has never had a problem with it. If you're looking for something to help you with your cruntches this might be the way.

Exactly What I Needed!
 
Review Date: February 18, 2010
Reviewer: Peachytoo, RI United States
Although this was a bit smaller than I expected, I was quite surprised by how well it worked! First, don't bother getting a pump. It took me less than 3 minutes to blow it up, and I was barely winded. The only issue was getting the straw (that they provide) out and putting in the plug - took a few tries, but I finally got it!

I needed an fitness ball to get my bum up in the air when I did some of my pilates, and this is perfect! I also tried it for my ab exercises, and not only could I do my regular crunches (which I've been doing with my stability ball which was a bit too unwieldy for the pilates), but I could do the exercises for the side abs as well.

The best $8 I've ever spent!
Works exactly as Advertised!
 
Review Date: February 8, 2009

Review Date: June 19, 2008
Reviewer: Ace Reader,
Really good piece of equipment. It does take some pressure off the back allowing for better crunches. Make sure you get the size that will fit you the best. I went for the 65, I think the biggest they had, which turned out to be a little big but well worth it. I've had it for more than 4 months now. I can easily do 100 crunches at a time now. Just need to motivate yourself to practice.
Decent for the money
 
Review Date: January 28, 2009
Reviewer: John H, WA
Hasn't popped after a week.

Not the balls fault (because the rubber is about as soft as it gets), but these are not super soft to use. Not like laying on foam. I doubt you'll be smiling like on a bender ball commercial. Will add a little extra to your crunches though if that's what you're looking for.

Don't buy a pump. It comes with a straw that works just fine, or you can just use your mouth on the rubber.

I only use the fitball now when I do crunches. I get a lot more out of my workout now. I like the fact that it's small and I can throw it in the closet when I'm done, unlike the large balls.

Review Date: April 4, 2009
Reviewer: Barbara A. Hunt, Fair Oaks,, Ca United States
ball is easy to blow up by mouth and piece, don't bother buying the pump it's a waste of money. Thin soft rubber ball made to use with lower back for a more intense sit up, behind the head for support or under the rear and small back for balance exercises. it is meant to be aquishy unlike the sweedish/medicine balls. Would definately recommend we use these in gym class all the time so I bought one for home.
DO NOT BUY THE PUMP it is a waste of money.

Review Date: May 7, 2009
Reviewer: Amy M. Soter, Shelton, Ct
I bought this ball as a replacement to my bender ball, which is very similar but slightly larger. After years of use my bender ball finally got a slow leak and deflated. It takes forever for them to ship so I figured I would try to find a comparable replacement. Because this ball is slightly smaller doing the ab exercises that I normally did with the Bender Ball are a little more uncomfortable, and works best slightly deflated. It is a great ball for the price, but if you are purchasing it to replace your lovely bender ball like I was just suck it up and by another.
Love it!!!

This ball is not made of thick rubber like you're used to with the large swedish balls at the gym. It popped on me after about 4 months (I am 6ft 170lbs) while I was using it for sit ups.

If you decide to buy it, don't let them sucker you into buying a pump for it. You can blow the ball up like a balloon and don't need the pump.

Review Date: March 9, 2009
Reviewer: Greg Wilcox,
I thought I was getting a good deal on this mini ball for about 1/3 the "retail" price, especially since I didn't need all of the instructional booklets with exercises. Well first the ball gets inflated with a cheap straw. But it worked, so I couldn't complain too much. But the play balls at walmart seem to be better made than this (and there $2.99 inflated). And I tried to use it outside when it was nice, which popped it on a very small stick in my yard since the outer skin is very weak.

The ball arrived timely, but the ball doesn't stay inflated when I blow it up. I must have missed something when I opened the package. Should there be a plug to seal the valve? I can't use this product.

Product Description
OK to Wake!'s nightlight is programmable by the parent - you define what time the "Green means GO!" light turns on in the morning. Kids take pride in waiting for the green light before they come visit you in the bedroom with the knowledge of a job well-done. In the evening, OK To Wake! is a comforting nightlight (soft yellow glow) that can be turned on at the tap of a "toe" for a programmable duration (up to two hours). For older children that want to get up "on their own", OK To Wake! is a fully-functional alarm clock with snooze - just like mom and dad's! A pleasant gradual-wake (ascending volume) tone gently rouses your child. When sounding, the left toe button snoozes for ten minutes and the right toe button silences the bell. Fun animations make OK To Wake! come to life with smiles and winks whenever the alarm is sounding. OK to Wake! includes a special built-in nap timer. Press a button to nap for up to 24 hours (fully customizable) without the other clock settings. And, best of all, the nap timer can conclude with the OK To Wake! light, the gradual-wake tone or both! OK to Wake! comes with two interchangeable bezels (green bug and pink flower). OK to Wake!'s volume and brightness settings are fully adjustable to meet the preference of you and/or your child. Runs entirely on battery power (2x AA required) - no power adapter required.

Product Details
  • OK to Wake! glows green when it is time for young kids to go see mom and dad in the morning.
  • OK to Wake! includes a special built-in nap timer independent of the regular alarm settings.
  • OK to Wake! is a fully-functional alarm clock with snooze
  • OK to Wake! comes with two interchangeable bezels: Bug and Flower.
  • OK To Wake! comes to life with fun animations of smiles and winks whenever the alarm is sounding.

Exactly what we needed
 
Review Date: December 14, 2009
Reviewer: Allyson M. Le Sueur, Houston, TX United States
This clock is exactly what we needed to teach our two-year-old twins an appropriate time to wake up. We're able to help them sleep in longer in the mornings and stay quiet if they wake up before "the clock turns green," as we taught them. We also use the "OK to Wake" setting for naps, so if they wake up too soon after going down, they know to put themselves back to sleep. They have been less grumpy and more rested since we started using this clock. It was easy to teach and can be adapted when they are able to distinguish numbers on the clock face. This is perfect for our family!
Love this "OK to Wake" clock!
 
Review Date: November 13, 2009
Reviewer: Linda J. Mason, MA
I ordered this clock for my toddler, who seemed to have an issue understanding when it was okay to wake up for the day, and when it was still time to continue sleeping. With winter approaching, it is darker now in the mornings so we could no longer use the "not until the sun comes up" line with her. This clock was the answer to our prayers. Not only does she think she is special and a "big girl" for having her own alarm clock in her room, this clock is perfect for us to set the "OK to wake" timer so that it turns green (green means go!!) when its okay for her to get up and start her day. Right from the first night we used it, she understood that when she woke up and the clock had not yet turned green, she had to stay in bed and go back to sleep. In the morning, she called me from her room and announced that it was green and she could get of bed now! I would absolutely reccommend this clock to anyone with a toddler or older child that may need a little encouragement to stay in bed - even for a few extra minutes!
The whole family loves this clock!!

Wow! Who would have thought we would be able to sleep until 7:00. This clock is perfect for our 2 and half year old. This is a great "visual" for our son. He knows he could get up when he sees the green light. It isn't a night light so it's dark until the timer goes off. We finally have the mornings to ourselves. We highly recommend it!
A great solution.

This is the perfect way to keep kids in bed until you want them to get up. It's very easy to set and it's basic idea is simple enough for even the youngest children to understand. When it's green, you can get up. The fun bug and flower covers are a nice touch too. We tell my son he can get up when the bug is green.
Exactly what we needed

Reviewer: Lissa,
My 2 yr old kept getting up earlier and earlier and waking us up. She wanted to know if it was time to get up yet. We tried teaching her to look for the number 7 to wake at 7am but she just wasnt getting the connection. This clock works GREAT! The first day we showed her to look for the green glow and from then on it was no problem. Now she just plays in her room until it turns green! More sleep for us!!!! I only wish it had a plug in option but the batteries seem to be lasting and I love that the glow turns itself off all on its own.
Perfect
 
Review Date: February 3, 2010
Reviewer: anonymous, TX
This clock is perfect for teaching our 3 1/2 year old when it's time to get out of bed. Just what we needed now that she has a little sister in the room with her.

FYI - the default amount of time it stays green is 30 minutes but you can change that so that it will stay green up to 2 hours (or as short as 15 min). It will just shorten your battery life if you set it for longer.
We're all better rested!
 
Review Date: February 21, 2010
Reviewer: Eileen,
This light-up alarm clock has been absolutely wonderful for our family! Our 2-year-old was waking up anytime between 4:30 and 5:30 AM and not going back to sleep. This lighted alarm clock is what finally helped him learn to stay in bed until a reasonable hour (initially 6:00 AM, now 6:15, and hopefully 6:30 soon). Now rather than hearing "Up! Up!" at 5:00 AM, we often hear nothing until 6:15 or 6:30 when he proudly tells us, "Bug light on!" (We are using the bug-shaped face plate, so we call this his "bug light.") And if he does wake up before the light goes on, he will usually settle quickly when I tell him the light isn't on yet and that he needs to go back to sleep until it goes on. So far we've used this only in winter, so the illumination on the clock has been plenty bright -- I don't know how it will work in summer; we may need to get blackout curtains then in any case. Our toddler is used to sleeping in the dark, so I didn't want to get a clock that was too bright or stayed on all night. We just started using the nap timer feature this week, and I like that, too. This clock has been worth every penny we spent, and then some!

Reviewer: C. Konz,
My daughter wanted it for my grandaughter. She reports that it's working great and my 3 year old grandaughter knows when it's green, it's time to wake up!
functionality all there; wish it were brighter
 
Review Date: October 22, 2009
Reviewer: K. Ryall, Boston, MA USA
Summary: all the functionality is there but I wish the nightlight were brighter. We're going to keep it anyway. Hopefully it's bright enough to help our daughter learn to sleep in a bit longer in the morning.

I was torn between this item and it's plug-in sibling (Teach Me Time). We really wanted something battery operated so this clock seemed the clear choice. The "Ok To Wake" feature is what sold us on this clock. It's too early to tell if the behavior modification piece will work for our daughter, but that's more a question of her learning -- the functionality of the clock is all there. We even plan to use the 'nap' feature as a time-out clock/timer (got the idea from a competing product). We love that it is battery operated -- waiting to see how long the batteries last in practice.

My main concern is that the 'nightlight' is not very bright. Even on "high" the yellow is particularly dim; the green is adequate. We purchased a separate product to serve as a nightlight even before we knew this one was dim. Why do I want it brighter? So that my daughter can easily see what color the clock is, which (in my mind) is the whole point of this particular clock. I'd try to see the clock in person if you think this might be an issue for you. Its brightness will NOT be the same as its plug-in sibling.

The face on this clock is not backlit; you can't see it in the dark without pushing the toe to illuminate it. To conserve battery life the nightlight has a max time on of 2-hours (although you can push the button again to re-trigger it). The controls are quite easy to use. The animations are cute. I like the design of toe-operated buttons (for toggling light and snooze). Overall very child-friendly and fun.

My wish list? The functionality of this clock (or it's sibling) using a rechargeable base, so that you could get the power (and brightness if you wanted it) of a plugged-in version with the flexibility of a cordless (i.e., battery-operated) version.

One other note -- some of the competitors for this product have a money back guarantee (as in if your child doesn't learn to sleep better get a refund). This product (and it's sibling) do not. It'd be a nice thing to add.
Useful tool - not so much a 'toy'
 
Review Date: March 9, 2010
Reviewer: S. Kant, NY
This product has worked out well for us. Durability is a bit of an issue, as my dd likes to 'play' with it and carry it around. Every time she drops it (which is often - she's two) we have to reset it entirely. She also figured out pretty quickly how to open the 'hidden' compartment and "press the buttons" - causing additional reset issues.

The "stay in bed till the clock glows green" has been a mixed bag for us. She *says* she knows what to do, but doesn't always comply. I think this is more an issue of a head-strong daughter than an issue with the product!

Overall I recommend this to anyone looking for a solution to a child who gets up too early. I yet to find anything that works better!
Poor Design
 
Review Date: November 20, 2009
Reviewer: Toddler Mom, Dallas, TX United States
This clock does not stay illuminated, nor does the time. This makes it impossible to read the time in the dark without pressing the "light" button on the "foot". The glowing feature set to the wake time is great, but I wish the time was visible 100% of the time and not only when the the clock is glowing or the light is turned on.
Not Impressed
 
Review Date: February 17, 2010
Reviewer: Heather, Alberta, Canada
We bought this for our 3 year old, to replace her "regular" alarm clock with something a little more fun. We were disappointed as soon as we put the batteries in to find out the numbers only light up when the button is pressed, and then only for 30 seconds. What's the point of a clock if you can't see the time? Also the green glow that happens when it's "okay to wake" is quite dim. If it wasn't such a hassle to return, we would have sent it right back for something else. Cute idea, but needs some work.
Keeps resetting to 12:00
 
Review Date: February 1, 2010
Reviewer: J. Cady, California
I could overlook the cheap quality of this clock if it actually worked properly. Clever design but poorly executed. I discovered (after just two weeks of use) that a moderate bump to the device causes it to reset to 12:00AM. My child liked to have it close and it got moved around a lot. That is how we discovered the problem. I am now printing the returns labels and will look for something else.
Does this even glow green?!
 
Review Date: February 8, 2010
Reviewer: L. Hull,
I was SO excited about this product. My son understands color so I knew he would understand that when it turns green it's okay to come out of your room. Well, you can't even tell it's green unless your in a REALLY dark room. So it does me no good!

A Hip-Saver
 
Review Date: July 2, 2008
Reviewer: Dinkyknits, Ridgefield, CT
I have bought this for my pregnancy. There are a zillion ways to use the ball. It's particularly good for rest or for opening up your hips when the muscles are tight. This ball is super strong. I've had a friend who is 215lbs use it too.
Fantastic deal!
 
Review Date: August 22, 2008
Reviewer: OlyNomad, Seattle, WA
This is a fantastic deal. The ball is very sturdy and supports a lot of weight. It comes with the pump and a workout video too. And the workout video had great exercises on it, ones I had never thought to even do. I just got it to stretch out my back (which it works perfectly for), but the workout exercises are an added bonus. I wasn't expecting such high quality at this price, but this really is a great ball and value deal.
Ball of steel
 
Review Date: September 9, 2008
Reviewer: Jason M. Rigler, Florida
Not only do I put my entire body weight on this big pink ball, but so do my kids and my wife. Sometimes at the same time. And our aussie likes to chew and chase and claw the ball for exercise. As well as leaping on top of the ball and jumping off of it. This thing has been indestructable for 2 months so far. Well worth the price.

The dogs finally popped it after 11 months... I loved stretching on that thing. Getting a new one today. August 10, 2009
Perfect for exercising!
 
Review Date: August 11, 2008
Reviewer: Jamie Shaw, Ohio
This item is just what I was looking for. It's not too big but not too small. I am around 5'1" and I searched to find the right size exercise ball but kept finding different tips. How did I finally decide on this? I loved the color! But it ended up being perfect! When inflated it is just the right resistance, not too firm but not too soft that I feel like I am sinking in. The only thing I had a problem with is I had to add air a few times until I found the right amount, but I think that is going to happen to everyone who is filling up a ball the first time. Overall this is exactly what I was looking for! I would recommend this for anyone looking for a great exercise ball!
a workout to inflate the ball
 
Review Date: September 30, 2008
Reviewer: P. NG,
This ball works great.

The only advice I have is that it took me three days to inflate up the ball (with the manual pump that they provided). It's easier to inflate the ball if there's 2 people to coordinate putting the plug in before air leaks out.

Glad I Got One
 
Review Date: July 4, 2007
Reviewer: John E. Blackford, Winder, GA
I was at a Bed Bath and Beyond store and walked past a display where they had one of these working. They had the citrus scent in the machine and it was delightful. I decided right there and then that I needed one. I set it up in no time and loaded it with the citrus scent. It has made my house smell really nice and the water and scent mixture swirling gently in the clear plastic bowl combined with the blue light it is very relaxing.
Very Effective Unit
 
Review Date: July 12, 2007
Reviewer: Wendy Tobler, Michigan
After reading several reviews online, I bought one of these through Amazon (thanks for the free shipping, Amazon!). I'm very satisfied with the unit's ability to quickly neutralize a smelly room, and I'm amazed at how large an area it "treats". In fact, even though I used less than a teaspoon of the "revitalizing" scent when the directions called for two teaspoons, the effect was almost overpowering. From now on, I'll only use a few drops.

It runs quietly, but certainly not silently. If white noise helps you sleep, you'll love this unit, but, personally, I'm not sure I could sleep with this in my bedroom.

On the other hand, someone mentioned being bothered at night by the light always being on. Well, the manufacturer must've been listening, because you now have the option of running it with the light off! I love its blue glow, but I do agree that I wouldn't be able sleep with it nearby.

Whether the Brethe Air is actually filtering out the odors in my home, as claimed, or is just masking them, I couldn't say without scientific testing, but I hate perfumey air fresheners and this unit is definitely a much nicer way to deodorize my home. I'm glad I bought it.
Does a lot for such a small machine!
 
Review Date: July 26, 2007
Reviewer: A. Thoresen, US
I saw the infomercial about Brethe, and while it looked interesting, I have to admit that I was skeptical. I ended up picking one up while at BB&B, and I was VERY impressed with the way it wiped out odors, and quickly!

Our basement gets kind of stinky because we keep the litter boxes down there, and since the cats have to get down there to do their business, we can't close the door. Obviously, we don't want the litter box smell traveling through the rest of the house. I put the Brethe unit on a countertop in the basement with some of the citrus scent, and within 5 minutes, I could tell a HUGE difference!

We bought a second unit to use in our bedroom (helps with my asthma at night), and we keep the first one running non-stop in the basement. No more stinky litter box odor!
YOU WILL LOVE THIS -- WITH YOUR OWN SCENTS
 
Review Date: September 28, 2007
Reviewer: Reba, FLA, USA
I bought this at Bed Bath Beyond today. I used the citrus scent. Very nice. My husband even liked it. It smells clean with a hint of citrus. Sort of like Citrus Pine Sol if you will. However, I have become weary of their "institutionally citrus" scent already so I just tried some $.99 Island Jasmine in it from a dollar store and now I'M REALLY LOVIN' IT. I don't need to smell "clean" like "pinecitrisol". I want my home to be aromaticly inviting and relaxing. I actuallY bought two -- I'm keeping them both. Just not using their scent. It just all depends on the aroma YOU love and what your mood is. AROMATHERAPY DOES WONDERS!
MMmmm it smells so good!
ENJOY, LIVE WELL, LAUGH OFTEN AND LOVE MUCH!
Great Product
 
Review Date: October 5, 2007
Reviewer: Paul Percoskie, Melbourne, FL
I just bought this today after reading some of the reviews and I do love the scents and in my large home with an open floor plan and vaulted ceilings the scent really travels thru the main rooms. Experiment with your own flavors because it works a lot better then the plug ins
Does what it says it does !!!

I love this product, it works exactly like it said it would the only thing I would say is get your own oils the ones that come with it are good but I think you can find better. but all in all I love it
Robust little scent diffuser
 
Review Date: September 30, 2009
Reviewer: sobepeace,
I live in the desert, have a very sensitive nose, a love of pretty scents, and a tendency to dryness, so I circled this gizmo for quite some time at my local Bed Bath & Beyond, still unsure whether to buy one because it seems so, well, weird. When a mouse got trapped and died behind a wall in my house, though, I ran right out and got one immediately. This little dynamo was going full blast for literally two weeks, and it really worked. It won my confidence and earned five stars on that job alone. Since then I use it in my meditation room to keep a nice scented atmosphere going. I did, however, have to enlist it for heavy duty recently when a scared skunk sprayed in the yard and the smell started drifting into the house. (What a city girl is doing living in a place full of skittish skunks and marauding rodents is a whole other story.) Once more, it pulled through, distributing the scent and clearing the air speedily, not just covering over the odor. Don't ask me how.

The points others have made are quite valid. It comes with three samples of strong, industrial-smelling scents. They do, however, contain an emulsifier that enables the scented oils to mix with the water. Possible alternatives include using only a few drops of the included scents, using an emulsifier + essential oil, using just essential oils and replenishing more frequently, or, as I do, using a few drops of an included scent (vanilla is the most neutral) + several drops of essential oil. That works just fine, unless another odor calamity comes up, in which case even the chemically lemon and lime (haven't tried the lavender) are preferable. (Bed Bath & Beyond now carries the scents for $10, less still if you get your hands on one of their plentiful 20% off coupons.)

The machine is easy to clean, though soaking in vinegar or citric acid solution once in a while is advisable to keep the plastic water container from fogging over. It is loudish, kind of like a blow dryer in another room. That hasn't bothered me for my use but if you are sensitive to noise, that is something to consider. While it does release some moisture into the environment, I would hardly call it a humidifier. Still, that is not the principal function, so I'm content to view the whatever additional moisture it puts out as icing on the scent diffuser cake.
wonderful product

Reviewer: Kim A. Bulko, dayton oh
let me tell you, i have 3 dogs and i smoke this makes your house smell so clean takes away all oders, i only put 1 capful in the machine and i can smell it everwhere in my house i was thinking of buying another one but i think i dont have to. i love it!!
Eliminated Pet Odor In Basement
 
Review Date: January 7, 2008
Reviewer: A. Roberts, Charles Town, WV USA
Great air cleaner at a great price. It was the only thing that eliminated the pet odor in the basement. To clear the pet odor I added a very small amount of Nature's Miracle to the water. After a few days running the unit with this solution the pet odor was gone. It performed better than a $400 air cleaner and other air cleaners I purchased. So far adding the Nature's Miracle to the water has not harmed the unit. However, if you try adding anything other than what is recommended by the manufacturer then you do so at your own risk. After spending over $1,000 trying to rid my basement of the pet odor I was desperate to try it. So far it has worked wonders for me.
Great when considered practically
 
Review Date: December 1, 2007
Reviewer: Rafael A. Hernandez, Chicago ILL
I suffer from bad alergies and this device has been a life-saver for my wife and I. My alergies cause me to have a bad snoring problem and suffice to say she won't even let me in the bedroom without the Brethe Air running. When considered with other air cleaning systems it functions quite well, and the humidifying feature is a godsent in winter. The emulsifing sents are a nice addition although not nessisary to feel the benefits. However, it is an air cleaning humidifier, not a de-humidifier. This device is for a normal to dry environment, not a moist to moldy (wet) environment. It adds moister to the air, it does not remove moisture.
Homedics is a Winner
 
Review Date: September 3, 2008
Reviewer: T. Bagrowski, Delta, PA United States
I've had this unit for about a year now. It does what it's suppose to do, Freshens the Air in a Large Room or even a Decent sized House. Just be careful what you dump into it, Over the Counter Air Fresheners work Great(Like Glade Plugins etc..) but can be short lived,

Like a Fool I had some Soap making Fragrance I dumped into mine, Well it wasn't too kind to the plastic bowl and eventually made it Brittle to the point it started cracking, Now this is where Homedics is a Winner, I sent them an E-Mail just asking where I could buy a New Bowl and without any problem whatsoever, They sent me a New Bowl Free of Charge. Thank you Homedics.

Like I said above, It does what it was designed to do. But there are a couple of Drawbacks.
(1) The Fragrance that comes with it, Smells too medicinally.
(2) The Unit itself is a little too loud.
(3) and my biggest complaint, When adding a Fragrance or Cleaning the Bowl, You need to set the unit (Head) down, The only way to set it down is on it's top, Which always causes the Button to Push in and fire the unit up. I noted this in my E-Mail to Homedics as the Button should be recessed into the lid. Minor stuff really.

All in All I'm Happy with it.
A little weird but works great
 
Review Date: December 17, 2007
Reviewer: Dog Crazy, Boston
It's a little loud and a little weird but I love it. We have 6 dogs and 6 cats. I put it on the kitchen counter the first night with the lemon scent. The next day (literally overnight) the water was a really gross dark brown. Since then, the water has been clean, I can't imagine what was floating around in my house - none of us are smokers! The scents are a little odd too, kind of detergenty, pine-sol, smelling. It works great with a few drops of essential oils too. This is a must have in my house.
It's pretty loud - keep that in mind if it's for a bedroom.
