 Smaller Leg Strap, Excellent Bands & Handles Jul 09, 2009
By V. Sandy
"V"
I really wanted to rate this purchase 4 stars but did not for one major reason.
The leg strap included in this package is 4 or 5 inches shorter in length than the one packaged with EA Sports Active (EASA). The strap itself is very, well made and upon examination appears to be finished and sewn better than the one packaged in EASA. For those with smaller thighs that have had issues with strap overlap, this will be an excellent replacement, BUT for those of us with larger thighs that have had problems with the one in EASA being too small, its not a help. When I succeed in loosing more weight, I suspect I'm going to appreciate this strap nicely but unfortunately I can't use it now.
The handles that I received are also good. A narrower, padded grip strap, that will sit comfortably behind the Wii remote while being used.
Three tubes. Black-light, gray-medium, red-hard.

 Wii Activ3 Workout Kit by DreamGEAR - The Good & The Bad Nov 03, 2009
By T. Jay
While I have some mixed feelings about this kit, I do overall like it. That being said, there is one really big potential problem with it. The leg-strap is about 8 inches shorter than the one that came with EA Active. I'm really not sure why they made it so much smaller. My wife is using it and it works fine on her, but I couldn't fit it around my leg and I would guess that's true for 1/2 of the people that would consider purchasing it. If your upper thigh is larger around than 19 inches, you won't be able to strap it on without some custom modifications.
Okay, now the good. Besides being a little on the short side, it is well made. Also, the three different straps that come with it are all very nice quality, much better than the one that comes with the game originally.

 Great accessory for the Wii Active Sep 23, 2009
By A Mom
The band that came with the game broke and I had a hard time getting enough resistance with the original band anyway. This set allows you to select a band at the appropriate resistance level, and I have had no problems with deterioration as I did with the original band. I haven't used the leg strap, but it seems to be of good quality as well.

 Not Good Aug 15, 2009
By C. Mayberry
I bought this due to the original leg strap ripping but it is made for a child...my girlfiend is 5' and 115 lbs and it is alsmost too small for her!!! Then the handles are not like whats in the picture...just material straps. Not good.. I think the company tried to get something out fast and screwed up.

Tension bands=Great; Legstrap=Not so great Nov 04, 2009
By Nicholas J. Sayotovich
These tension bands feel like they will handle a lot more abuse than the one that came with the game. I like that I can add varying levels of resistance by clipping on additional bands. The tension band that came with the game was fine but within a couple weeks it was just way too easy. My only complaint on this product is that the leg strap was designed for a child. Well, maybe that isn't fair...let's say somebody with slender legs. If you are muscular or chubby this leg strap is not going to fit you. On the upside you should be able to extend it with a strip of velcro without too much work. If you want the exact measurement let me know and I will take a look at it.
