 Great cheap band! Perfect for P90X Jun 25, 2010
I bought this band for under $10 around six months ago and it has held up very well. I wasn't sure from the pictures if the handles had a solid core (as opposed to just nylon fabric handles, but there is a solid tube in there to grip). I would spend the money on this brand again instead of spending $15 plus for one from a store. The resistance level is very nice too, don't have too stretch too far to feel the burn!
 Prone to Breaking Feb 26, 2010
I should have suspected that these bands may break fairly easily due to their inexpensive price. I purchased them for the P90X workout, and during the first workout I broke both the handles off the second heaviest band doing exercises they show on the box. (Standing on one end of the cord while pulling the handle for a tricep workout). Once the handles broke off I do still actually use the bands themselves for the workouts, not near as comfortable...but still has decent resistance. During our second workout the handles broke off the red heavier duty bands as well. I sent an e-mail to Valeo directly to see if they would send a replacement but I never got an e-mail back.
 Don't Buy These Feb 22, 2010
I bought a medium resistance and a heavy resistance band. I broke the medium resistance band almost immediately. The tubing snapped right at the handle on one end. I threw it away and started using the heavy band. After a couple of months the tubing snapped at one end just like the first band. I tied knots in the tubing to keep it from pulling back through the handle and continued using it. A couple of weeks later the other end of the tubing broke. I tied knots in that end too. Now I have a short VERY high resistance band which is working fine so far. I am not a very strong guy, so these bands must be for real wimps. I do like the really comfortable handles.

Snapped! Jan 28, 2010
I only had this product 2 weeks before the tube snapped. The resistance was pretty light (should have got the heavy), the foam handles nice, but now... unusable.
Great for the disabled in a wheelchair Sep 10, 2009
This is great arm workout for a person in a wheelchair. If they can, per their PT's advice, it can be wrapped around a deck post and used with many different exercises. Great item.
