Three of these broke. Granted the company sent me two replacements for nothing after the first one failed, but to no avail. My wife received something similar from SPRI (doctor's tubing) and it has lasted for a few years now.

I ordered one of these exercise mini bands to put around my knees while doing thigh exercises. I'm 5'8" and 130 lbs, and I could hardly manage to get the yellow light resistance band around both of my legs. Once I did get the thing around my legs, the flat part rolled up and threatened to cut off my circulation. I've used resistance bands in the past that I needed to tie off myself, and I thought those were awful... but now I'm reconsidering my opinion. These mini bands are the worst!

And on top of all that, it's pointless for me to return this item. I already paid triple in shipping what this dumb thing was worth, and I'm certainly not about to pay for return shipping just to ship this ridiculous piece of elastic back for resale.

If you're looking for resistance bands to use with leg-work, especially to put around your thighs, DO NOT BUY THESE. They are flat out awful. I'll never buy from Perform Better again.

bought these after seeing a tv show on a set of exercises to do with them. They are a very thin band about 1.5" wide
What I absolutely hate about them is their strong tendency to roll up--which then are very uncomfortable to use--require constant readjustment.

I have a band that is less wide but thicker that is much better in the regard- will look for that type next time

I purchased yellow, green and blue bands for a weight training class I instruct. The yellow and green bands were much to easy for my students. They would be great for seniors or for people rehabbing. I have my group wear a few of them to create more tension. I wish I had purchased only the blue and black.
We really enjoy the bands during class. They're a nice break from weights. The bands are also very soft and don't irritate the skin.

I am the coach of a youth track team and these bands (if they don't disappear first) have last two seasons of 5th through 8th grade kid use. They are excellent quality.

These started as a physical therapy aid. I've been using these bands for my training clients for years. I've had the same ones for about 4 years now, and as they age, its normal for breakage- after all they are rubberbands. I use all levels and am re-ordering to increase my stock, because as someone else stated "they disappear", which hopefully means they like it enough to use at home!

My band (the blue superband) snapped on the third use, doing some pretty easy stretching. A complete waste of money.

I use these at the gym and liked them so much decided to order them to use at home. Good quality and can be used anywhere.

This band started off really well. It's ony good for 3 uses. I initialy bought it since I'm a distance runner and needed something to work my hip and glute muscles at home. After 3 uses: *snap* I wish I could've given it a half star! Dont buy this it has gotta be for babies!!!

It's a tight rubberband. What else can you say about it? It works like I thought it should. I use it regularly and it's small enough to take on trips to continue the strengthening of my legs.
