How do you determine fakes by the cuff stitching?

They are still sending the fakes. I received them 2/15/14. They are not the same as what is shown in the photo. The fakes have no labels inside and do not come with a warranty card.

Just received my glove which has the Joseph Enterprises, Inc. outside packaging but the glove is a fake with the telltale black stitching around the cuffs and no tag on the inside cuff. Also the blue lines are a darker blue from the one I've had for many years and the fit is tighter in the fingers while also longer in the fingers. The fit around your hand is loose and doesn't sit the same as the one I already had. I haven't tested out for heat yet. If it's not comparable I'll be returning this. If you go to Joseph Enterprises' oveglove.com they have a warning about gloves sold through Amazon not always being the real deal and give you a listing of where you can purchase the real thing.

The fakes I received had heavy black stitching around the cuffs, came in cheap celophane wrappers, and had no tags inside. The picture on the web were authentic ones, so I did not know until I received the replicas that they were fakes. They were 1/2 the price of other vendors, so that should have been a clue that they were junk.

the glove I received was much thinner and did not have the UL tag. It also came in a plastic bag and not the red and blue box the original comes in.

The stitching around my cuff was white. I did not see any UL tag, but that might have been on the packaging, which I threw away. My glove worked just fine! It seems to be a thick fabric quality glove.

Just pulled out my box and read the warranty. It has a limited lifetime warranty, on workmanship only....the cuff has a 1 yr warranty and it would have to be sent to the manufacturer and they would repair or replace it. The same model I had before worked fine for about 10 yrs, then it had issues and I replaced it. Very happy with their product!

Don't know about fakes, but this one seems fine enough. How would I know if I got a fake? Now I'm curious.

Overall I'd say they are pretty close in accuracy, but something to consider is the general size of the patients wrist and upper arm. I have a lot of patients that for one reason or another fall into the obese category and sometimes the wrist cuff won't fit right{of course with some the arm cuff won't fit either!} that being said if you want the best accuracy go with the manual cuff and stethoscope its not the fastest method but unless you having hearing issues it will give you the best readings. I hope I've been able to help you with this.

Mine were a very thin synthetic type either. Not very sturdy. Rest of the material is very thinn as well. I ended up pulling the cuff off when trying to put them on. Buyer beware on these. I would encourage all to not waste money.

One way of finding out if it fake is by using or pulling and pushing on the extension adjustments. If it doesn't click or make the rattling sound or it just slides in and out freely, it's fake. I sold authentic ones

Hi Silvia, the size on the cuff reads 9.5-13.25 inch, but it can take an inch more or less with still an accurate result. I hope this helps you.Erik Kooiman

I don't know the answer to that! I can only confirm that the knife I own is the real deal. It's not a pair of Ray Ban where you can look for markings and hidden serial numbers. If you think it's a fake, send it back

No, you don't have to be that super accurate. Just line it up with the center of the inside of your arm and your all set. Stay away from anything that doesn't wrap around your upper arm, it's difficult enough to get these to give accurate results. Wrist cuffs are particularly lousy. This unit has a good rep. and was also rated good by Consumer Reports.

Those I received have no QR codes on the boxes. How do I made to check them ? IMO they are fakes.

There are plenty of videos on YouTube to distinguish, which are fake. It's pretty easy...different box, different cord, different images and sound quality of course. I don't think amazon would like to sell counterfeit products so if it does by some odd chance turn out to be fake, send it back immediately and inform amazon, also take pictures of the box and the product and send it to beats informing them what had happened

I really can't answer that question.No longer have this item. I can say one reason I donated this item to a S. N. F. Was the cuff size was extremely large and uncomfortable.

I purchased what APPEARS TO BE an original Otterbox. It has the name, logo and packaging. It appears well designed and nicely constructed. As I have never purchased one before, there is no way I can tell you with 100% certainty. There are people who counterfeit handbags and watches so well that only an expert can tell the difference. I'm not saying this was a "knock off", I'm just saying that it appears to be original and I have no reason to say otherwise.

I'm no expert on counterfeits, but the product works well and it has the logos and website of LensPen on all of the items. I believe it is authentic.

Mine was real. They have a stamp on the bottom if real. I looked into it before I bought mine.
