I have had issues with the plating wearing off bracelets like this pretty quickly. Has anyone had enough experience with these to let me know ?

I have some experience with this. Let me know if i can help you.This are awsome, there 6 in the package individualy pack. The only thing is that if you want to add some pieces you have to take out the final part, this for introducing the peaces.

I used them for a children's birthday party craft- they rusted pretty quickly- the plating didn't rub.

I don't think they're that great of a metal. My tarnished after about 1 month or two. For the money paid, I was expecting more.

Wearing them too tight? I purchased this replacement for the color. All of my bands have yet to break and I've had my Fitbit over a year +. I don't shower with mine and only get it wet to clean it. Being that's it rubbery, I doubt water plays a part, however.

Hi MC Pankey! We improved the strength and durability of the rings last July, so they should hold up much better than our original rings did. If you run into any problems with them, please let us know. Judging by the answers here, it looks like they have a much better reputation than they did in the past :) If there is anything else we can help you with, please feel free to contact us directly via this link:

Hey Victoria: My son broke his band too probably by tugging too hard when taking the watch off. I'm gonna write to the company now to see if replacement bands are available. Please post if you found another band. Thanks, John

Well...they are not sterling silver,but they do have a metal core. Great if you don't wear them everyday as they tend to darken (core)and turn your arm green. I and my daughter found this out after wearing them a few weeks almost daily only taking off for showers. But...if your only wearing them maybe a couple times a week and then keeping the bracelet in a plastic bag with the air pushed out they should last longer than that. Hope this helps you...

I haven,t had them for years. But, so far I haven,t had any problems with it coming off. Just make sure you heat set it properly.

hi. I suppose there might be a problem, but mine are on plastic and aren't causing trouble. They would probably come off metal as well, but I can't say for sure.

I bought them as a gift. I have not heard back there was anything wrong with them. There was a note enclosed with them on how to care for them. They have not rusted. Plus, the company was very sincere in wanting to make sure I was happy. If you bought something and was not pleased, I believe they would make it right for you. Sorry to not have more specifics for you.

Hi, I haven't had that problem with mine, fortunately, and I've had them in the dishwasher 5-10 times (depending upon the size, I use some more than others). I wonder if the other reviewer had a scratched or knicked spot that caused that problem? Mine have been great, though.

We have had ours for a while and there have been no scrathes. We also have had no rusting problems with the beads either.

I have had mine for about a couple of months and see no wear on them. It seems they last a long time as far as I can tell now. They are not perfect, but a very good way to wear a ring without having to resize. I did get this brand and I got a different brand as well, but I don't remember which is which (sorry about that). However, I use both brands, since one brand worked great with one ring I have and the other brand worked great for another ring I have. I know this isn't much help, but they both have worked on a daily basis for me and neither, as I indicated, have shown any wear (I only wear out my brain by repeating myself... lol.

Thanks for the recommendation Bryan. I'm not too fond of the clasp on that one, since I often forget to fasten them. I'll put this one on my list to check out though.

Not at all so far. I've had the set about six months now. Still looks shiny and chic and was a great deal as far as I'm concerned. Good luck!

I haven't had a problem, but in using other brands I've learned not to drag the tip across the screen and to treat tips with some care as they are pretty delicate and if they're not, they are too hard. These have been working well for me so far.

It all depends because it is soft aluminum. If you are looking for rigidity as in a conventional bracelet, it will not be. Another thing to keep in mind: this is unfinished (raw) aluminum, and usually it will leave a blackish mark if rubbed against something (including skin). In order to avoid this issue would be to get it anodized.

I have not had any problems with metal flaking off on the beaters/hooks thus far. I have only owned mine for less than a year so so far so good-
