 Comfortable, butJul 04, 2008
Like most cheaper wrist weights, they are difficult to keep cleaning and from smelling because you can't remove the weights to wash. Rinsing them out or washing by hand creates a bit of a mess as the items inside for weight leak brown color when wet.
I'm a man and when I put these at the tightest with the straps, they do not stay on my wrists, I have to push them up my arms a bit. Obviously made for those who are more obese.
However, they are very very comfortable (soft) and have held up well with many long distance runs.
 wrist/ankle weights by BellFeb 08, 2008
This is a practical, efficient, and simple product, well made, and easy to use - which is an essential for excercise equipment...

Great for Ankles, Not So Great for WristsJan 19, 2008
As another reviewer mentioned, I was also mislead by the product description on the website-I was under the impression that they were 3 lbs. each, instead of 1.5 lbs. That aside, the weights are well made and comfortable to wear on the ankles. Being on the small side, however, there's no way these work for me as wrist weights. They simply don't tighten enough--at the tightest fit they slide right off my hands.

Great Product, Poor Information providedJan 12, 2008
This product is very well made and great design. The problem that I had was that Amazon.com didn't put very good information about the item. I bought this item because it said a 3 lbs. pair of weights. What they didn't say is that the two weights combined would be 3 lbs. They made it look like I was going to get two 3 lbs. weights instead of two 1.5 lbs. weights. Good product, but poor service from Amazon.com yet again. So know they are 1.5 lbs and not 3 lbs. each.

Great way to tone your legs!Dec 07, 2007
I love these weights! Having Fibromyalgia and Degenerative Disk Disease I cannot do high impact excercise to stay in shape. Brisk walks are about my only option. With these weights I have toned my legs unbelievably. They are super comfortable and just the right amount of weight to not cause me any pain yet they still give enough resistance that I am building muscle from the waist down. Along with a low fat and high protein diet and several 15 to 30 minute walks per day I have lost 26 pounds in just under 4 months! I would highly recommend this product!
