I shower with my flex. Has anyone had issues with water getting into the chamber or view window?

Sometimes I take mine off to shower and sometimes not, yes water can get into these AND the Fitbit bands. Don't delude yourself into thinking the 'brand bands' do not have this issue also because they do. The bands are not waterproof, nor resistant. You have to care for your tracker. The trackers are waterproof, submerged in water up to 10 meters of depth. Thereafter no. If I notice water in mine, I take the tracker out, dry it well and then smoosh tissue up into both chambers to absorb excess water. Then I take a Qtip to both ends to make sure I have all of the water out. I've had mine for four months, LOVE my Fitbit and this works for me.

I just bought this wrist band. It leaks horribly!! Also, no matter how much I try to dry it steam builds up in the window. This is not good for the tracker as it is water resistant not waterproof. I have to order a new bracelet and will be going directly through Fitbit this time.

I've had this issue and I don't swim or shower in mine. I had to stop using it.

I wear mine in the shower everyday and have not had that issue. It stays dry.

Yes. I swim with mine and have the same issue. I usually just take out the tracker, dry it, and put it back in.

Yes, I have this issue too and I swim with it as well. I usually take out the tracker and dry it out a couple times a day. I'm assuming that the tracker is waterproof though! I've had mine for 3 months and it's still going strong.

The manual states, "Use only outdoors." That might be because, "the exhaust gas and top of the unit is HOT!" The exhaust fumes might be an issue. But, I think you could safely mount the unit outside and just run the hose that connects to the shower head through a window. I would personally be totally okay with and feel quite safe doing that. Hope that helps!

Absolutely no, but it's very easy to avoid the water coming in, I just cover the vent with duck tape and problem solved!

Mine was like that too. Filling the tub is an issue. I had to choke down my main supply valve to about half and put flow restricters on all the other fixtures. Kind of a pain but it saves water too. We all take showers anyway but could fill the tub just takes a while.

I installed two units in windows that slide sideways to close, I have only one side catching the window, but have had no problems with the conditioner falling out.

I don't really know, but a coworker of mine had that problem. He thinks it was because after his shower he would shake it from an end to get water drops off. I haven't had any problem with mine and I have worn it pretty much constantly for 8 months now.

Well it is satisfactory for me. I dry my upper body while still in the shower--step out and then dry the rest of me. No problem--absorbs water ok for me. Haven't really noticed until your question so I would reply ok.

I've had mine for several months now and the passenger side has had moisture in it but so far has not collected water.

I had that happen once. I found that I might have hit the button on the side of the start stop button and it didn't release all the water at once. I now am more careful and make sure I only hit the center button and I have not had the problem again.

I have only had mine for about a month. Is your bathroom well ventalated? Or is there alot of moisture building up? I would see if there is a way to contact moen. :)

I take my speaker into the bathroom every morning, but i dont take it into the shower itself. I have had my speaker for several months and it is still gaily producing sound in the bathroom, kitchen, outside, wherever I take it. My bathroom is well ventilated so it very rarely steams ups.

Get under it and play with it, that is the fun way to get an answer! LOL!!! Seriously, if the lever is forward and the button is up, you get rain only; lever forward and button down gives water from rain and hh; lever left and button down water is from hh only; lever left and button up gives you nothing so you might just skip showering!

Mine has given me no problem at all and it gets wet a lot. For the price a guy could have a couple on hand!

The water doesn't seem to be as much of an issue as movement. I have not had much luck with it staying on with or without the shower. It is good for a daily application, but you should expect to use additional tape or perhaps glue, which I have not yet tried. :-(

I have used it regularly for several years, and never seen any problem whatsoever. My shower is fiberglass, and looks just fine. Does a good job on stains from well water.

I haven't had any issues. I think there would be more issues with older piping. I live in an older house, but we've recently had new piping installed.
