I think there's a newer version out now, but this is a good deal for sure. Use a credit card with an extended warranty. In my experience Fitbits last for about 1.5 years.

I don't understand this. Can you explain this to me? I wanted to get a new Fitbit, but everyone I get breaks after a year.

My son's first Ace made it almost two years. My Blaze was about the same. Fitbit doesn't have a repair service, and after the warranty, the best they'll do is offer a discount on a new one. Enter the credit card warranty extension. I was able to submit a copy of my chat with Fitbit customer service, and a copy of the receipt, and got a check for the purchase price from Citi. With a card like the Costco Visa, you get a two year warranty extension, so in 3 years you've got a really good chance of it failing during that timeframe. Basically it's a buy it once and keep it rolling with CC warranty proposition unless you lose it or destroy it.

Needs charging every 5 days, for kids that is a hassle. Garmin Vivofit devices are more simplistic but they track steps and sleep, tell time, and have stopwatch functionality and the battery lasts about a year.

Is the warranty extension is only for electronic products purchased from costco?

My experience with Fitbit, it lasted exactly 13 months and missed warranty. I've posted my comment in multiple instances in SD, and some people dislike my post. I don't know why.

No. It's a warranty extension for most anything with a written warranty purchased (from anywhere) using the card.
