I have always craved a defined stomach but sit ups have always hurt my back, and after doing some research I found out that they are actually bad for your spine (have a search of Stuart McGill New York Times)!So, while I was looking into various ways to get my stomach into shape (preferably six individual shapes!) such as Ab-crunch-rollers I noticed that the Slendertone Flex was on offer (£36). I looked online to find mixed reviews, however the majority of negative comments came from people who either a) were 'experts' despite never trying one or b)thought it was a miracle weight loss machine. I decided it was worth the risk.When I received the Flex I was very excited and couldn't wait to give it a try!I stuck the middle pad on, and held the side ones on to work out how far apart I should place them. This was one of the first problems I encountered - I'm not an expert of human anatomy and if my oblique muscles were already on show I wouldn't need this machine! So I did an internet search and took a rough guess as to where to position them. I'm still not 100% sure if they are right - a guide in the instructions would be helpful.I took the plastic covers off the pads (keep them to one side to re-attach when you are done) and positioned the middle pad over my belly-button as instructed (After a few more uses I found placing the pad higher on my stomach but still covering my belly-button worked better) and put the machine on level 1. As I nervously increased the intensity I found 20 was enough for my first try. I noticed that the middle pad didn't seem to be doing much, in fact I wasn't sure if it was even on! I put it down to the fact I was on level 1. The first 'workout' went very quickly and when I took the machine off my stomach didn't have the usual ache after exercise, I wasn't very impressed but decided next time I would increase the level and intensity. I left it a couple of hours and put the machine on again, up to level 3 and intensity around 30-40. Wow what a difference! I could finally feel the middle pad and my stomach was visibly contracting and relaxing. My right side started to get a bit painful, but it was simple enough to turn the right side down a bit and everything was fine!I have been using the machine every day since I bought it and I am very impressed - my stomach already feels much firmer. It's very easy to just leave in the living room and put it on while watching TV. Before buying this machine realise that it WILL NOT make you lose weight. It WILL NOT give you a six pack without any other work. What it will do, is build up your stomach muscles and tighten up the whole area. Everyone has a six-pack but if it is layered with fat you can't see it (you need about a 10% body-fat percentage for a six pack), so if you want to get the most out of this machine you need to do a cardio workout too (running/biking/swimming..)I have not yet needed any replacement pads but I they last about a month. It is worth looking at the slendertone website for replacements as they are currently on offer and can be bought for £8 each with free delivery so I will be stocking up.Overall I'm pleased with the purchase and the convenience is well worth the added cost of replacement pads. The only problem is I'm still not 100% certain that I have the side pads in the correct position, and there is no mention in the instructions as to how strong you should put the intensity on. I have found that putting the intensity up to as high as I can handle before it becomes painful seems to work best.

I purchased this product on the 26th (March) and it arrived by the 29th (March) despite saying it wouldn't arrive till mid April, so I was very impressed with how quickly it came. I read many reviews on this product before hand and there where many mixed opinions on the product, I was sceptical and ordered it as I noticed it was only £50, with 44% off the recommended retail price and I had a voucher leftover from christmas so I thought, why not, if it doesn't work, it doesn't work and I will have to try something else.I am a UK side 10-12 and have being trying to loose some extra weight off my stomach and develop abs for just under two year now and have had no luck, I have only been using this product for one day,20 minutes in the morning (as soon as it arrived) and 30 minutes in the evening and I can tell that there is a difference already. I have to admit I stopped exercising so much in December last year as I have had a lot of work to do so the little abs that I had have faded and I can already feel them coming back!I started using the product on the intensity 1 and then noticed I couldn't feel anything so turned it up to 5, the product tingles at my sides and thats how I can tell its doing something. I had a few problems with setting it up and put on the gel pads and couldn't find the instructions in the booklet that it come with after my brother pointed out that the instructions for the gel pads are on the back of the packaging the come in. When putting the gels on the two that go on the sides had stuck together and it took a while to separate them. I find that I have to be really careful when removing the protective seals as the gel sometimes sticks to them and I accidentally rip off a small amount, also sometime the pads lift at the sides and I nearly take them off the belt. But I would say that is the only problem with the belt. I have read that the pads last for about a month and replacements I believe are only £9.99 or around that price so that will be no problem.I wear it under clothes, you can see it under a vest top (what I normally wear at the weekends) but through a jumper over the top to answer the door and you can't even see it. I have only used this while doing jobs around the house and getting ready for the day. Next weekend I will be using it when I go on my run and while I do my normal toning exercises and for 30 minutes after just to get a little ext a toning from it.Even though so far I am loving this product I have only given it 4/5 stars because 1) I have only just started using it so I don't know if it is actually going to make a huge difference and 2) I have some problems with the gels pads.Yet I find this great so and far would defiantly recommend it to anyone considering it, I had doubts after I purchased it and constantly thought about cancelling the order but I do no regret a thing about ordering it now as I can feel a difference already.

We bought our original Unisex Flex Max belt just over two years ago and my hubby and I have been using it daily ever since. In fact, it was becoming tricky to share it, so on my latest birthday I was delighted to find, gift-wrapped and ribbon-bedecked, my very own, brand-new Slendertone belt. The perfect present!I already know how to use it, and how effective it is. I am accustomed to its action, so I was able to crank it up pretty high and enjoy the luxury of the super-new pads. I know it's not strictly necessary to use it every single day, but it has become a ritual and I also like to wear it to max up the few crunches I feel obliged to throw in. With my bad back, I find sit-ups difficult to do,so this belt really helps. Since the original batteries (3 AAA included) have run out, I have been using rechargeables, which means that the intensity is always perfect because as soon as the beeper goes, I put in a fresh set.My experience with the pads is that I can stretch their usable life to over five months – I just checked my purchase history. I don't clean them, wash them, wipe them or maintain them in any way, other than making sure to cover them with the plastic shields before folding the belt away for storage. I use them on clean skin or over a little anti-cellulite gel applied to the waist area; they peel away from the skin easily and leave only the slightest residue which is easily washed away with water. Every three or four days I coat them with Compex Universal Gel, which is specifically formulated for electrodes and boosts the belt's action considerably.One point to consider is that this model Abs3 may be a little limited if you are looking for very visible muscle definition. My older belt is an Abs5 and I was using it at Level 116. I find little difference in the feel (especially when I use the gel), but I am using it at its top level. For the first-time or casual user, Abs3 may be perfectly adequate and it does cost a bit less, but some may find that paying a little more for the Abs5 is fully justified (and it does have three extra programs).Being realistic, the belt alone will not make a great difference to your belly fat, for that you need to add a cardio workout and appropriate diet. I am not a gym addict or body building freak but I truly believe that anyone can tone up and feel better with a little daily exercise. My enthusiasm for this belt is due to the fact that, for me, it works brilliantly. In conjunction with some daily cross-fit training, swimming whenever I can, and basic healthy eating, the Flex Max has visibly improved the way my body looks after the disastrous effects of the menopause. It's a little strange at first, but I soon got used to it, and toning my stomach muscles has helped ease my back pain as well.

Well what to say? I've owned this now for 5 weeks. There is no question that it exercises your stomach muscles. I'm not so good with directions so I ended up by accident with it on level 6 on the second day I owned it and thought I might as well leave it there so I guess I've accelerated the specified training regime a bit. But after using it on the second time my obliques (the side muscles) ached for about 3 days afterwards so there's no question that it does do something. I've used the belt every day for the last 5 weeks for ½ an hour on a power setting between 50 and 60. Have I got a six pack now? Quite possibly but it's not visible because I have about 11% body fat so it's covered up.I should point out that I'm fit and go to the gym 4 times a week so I was starting from a decent base level.It's difficult to know whether this has met expectations or not. I guess it has built up my abdominals and if I could lower my body fat I'd probably have a visible six pack but reducing your body fat to 5 or 6% is a very difficult thing to do. If you're young slim and have low body fat I'm pretty sure this would be a really easy way to get good definition to your stomach. If you're over weight I wouldn't even bother as it's really not likely to help, just try eating less and getting fit. If you're like me, fit and middle aged with normal body fat I guess it will add a bit of tone to your waist but I've not noticed any really dramatic changes, my waist size hasn't reduced.I guess one slight gripe is that although I've not had to do this yet it's inevitable that the connection pads will need changing on a regular basis as they will ultimately become covered with dust, hair and dried skin cells and will no longer make connection to the skin. I've been quite careful to avoid contaminating them any more than necessary and they're still OK after 5 weeks so I'm guessing you might even get away with 3 months of use before they need changing but that still means 4 new sets per year which is a running cost of about £45 per annum. I guess that's not that high but something to bear in mind when purchasing this item. That's the cost of the convenience of just having an integrated item that you can put on and have working in a few seconds though which I think is the beauty of this product, it's quick and easy to use and therefore you're far more likely to use it on a regular basis.

I had unknowingly seen the TV adverts hundreds of times until I realised what I was watching. I liked the idea of getting that extra help with toning that required very little effort! I looked into getting a belt and noticed the best offer was on Amazon (absolute BARG). I noticed a difference after 2 weeks of use and decided to take a couple of progress pics so I could see the difference before and after. After 1 month of use I was amazed at the results!I bought in January this year and used every day, missing the occasional weekend but kept up the belt use religiously. Every morning as I get ready for work and every evening after work at first, now I just use in the mornings.I am still thrilled to bits with this little gadget, a great purchase. Now my mum wants one for her birthday!I am naturally small and didn't buy this for weight loss it was solely for toning and toning it did! And it definitely makes you appear smaller (around the hips). I have used this belt almost every day of this year so definitely got my moneys worth and the results I wanted. I can bare the midriff all summer now with confidence!I rarely write reviews but I need them when I'm in 2 minds whether to purchase, so I hope this review helps someone!Age: 24Gender: Female

I very rarely leave reviews but I have owned this belt for only 5 days and feel the need to voice its merits! I am a 36 year old woman who is of a healthy weight but have always had what I call a 'pot belly', that is I gather any gained weight on my midriff and have always been untoned in the area because no amount of sit ups seemed to make a difference (and honestly I probably never kept them up long enough since fitness holds no interest for me). I purchased the belt on a whim and really wish I'd done it sooner. I have used it 2-3 times each day since I've gotten it and am only on the lower end of the intensity scale but the difference it has made to my stomach is already noticeable.My waistline looks to have decreased by at least an inch and it now sits flat rather than convex! The waistbands of my trousers do not now pull and I have lost the little muffin top that I usually have spilling over the top of jeans. I am by no means close to achieving a six pack and do not expect the belt to provide me with one but it has already fulfilled what I wanted out of it so I am more than happy and absolutely recommend it to others in the same position figure-wise.

I've only had this for 5 weeks, and used it maybe 4-6 times. On the pads at the sides, I totally can feel and see the contractions, but today, I became aware that I couldn't feel anything in the large, middle front pad area, so I rang to see what I should do about a return and a replacement, seeing that the window in which to do this had closed.The person I spoke with apologised and asked if I'd contacted Slendertone, and when I replied that I hadn't, and asked why I had to, she admitted that there were some notes on the system about this product and that she had to ask this question. She immediately then sent a replacement by next-day gteed delivery, telling me to simply follow the link to return this one.So,as amazon is selling way below the RRP and were so quick and willing to replace this sight-unseen, methinks that perhaps there is a known issue with this. I'll wait for the replacement, due tomorrow, and will update this review.P.S - my waist area has shown improvement in the few times I've used this, as my muscles feel harder, so hopefully, with a full-functioning belt, I should see results in the tummy area soon.

Before buying this belt I was surprised at how polarised the online reviews were; people either loved it or hated it. It seems that the people who liked it were the ones who had more reasonable expectations in the first place. Sometimes we don't see an true reflection when we look in the mirror. This product isn't going to change the way that you feel about your body, it's not going to stop you emotionally eating. It will however help you feel like you're making a step in the right direction.The instructions are a little hard to use, I personally would have liked a bit more information to help me feel confident that I was using it "properly" and getting the most out of it.Having said that it's easy to adjust to using this belt daily, you can feel it working and over time it does make a difference, a small but noticeable difference.In conclusion, does it work miracles?.... no. Does it work?... yes; it complements a healthy active lifestyle well and helps to flatten your stomach on the evenings when you just don't have time for the gym.

Jean-Cyrille. Have you actually tried this product? Because you seem pretty skeptical to begin with ("like all similar products"). I actually exercise quite a bit (and eat sensibly) but after about fours years of various exercise and classes unsuccessfully trying to improve my abs, I was recommended this product. It worked wonders. As someone has already said you have to have commitment. My wife gave up using hers after a few days. However I kept using mine and although my stomach is far from perfect, it's much flatter and my abs are actually visible for the first time in my life. I also find it a lot easier now to keep my abs tight during normal crunches in the gym.I think what really needs to be emphasized is that the main purpose of this product is to build muscle(those that are hard to build through normal exercise routines) rather than to magically make fat disappear. I recommend using it while have a walk.

I am 16yrs old and im at a point that if i start eating lots of protein and working out, i will get muscles and abs quickly. i am not very bulky and but i am no means skinny. i bought this product to use to help me build abs alongside sits up and crunches. I have a body that needs toning to make my abs stand out. i have been using this product for 2 weeks and i can start to see a 4 pack arising. if i pull down over my belly button, i am toned!! it really has done i good job and no doubt i will be very happy with the results after 8 weeks!!! HOWEVER, its been 2 weeks and 3 days and the gel pads have worn out........... i have to wait a few days for new ones until i can use it again but in the mean time i'll be doing 160 sit ups to make up for it.Other than the gel pad replacement situation this belt is ideal to help getting a six pack guys! i have already got a strong V line when i tense!

I bought this product for my partner who is dieting and, after losing 3 stone as part of a healthy eating diet, wanted some help getting rid of the last remaining flab around the stomach. Being myself a 28" waist (but not boasting a 6-pack) I was sceptical of this product, but wanted to support him in his diet so I bought it for him. Now we take turns using the Slendertone! The different levels are amazing and I am currently using volume 32. It is great how you feel - and see - your stomach moving in and out, just like doing a sit-up. We wear it watching tv, doing the gardening, and even cooking dinner. My partner is losing the excess flab from around his stomach and I am toning up in time for holiday.It is just like doing a sit-up, but without all the hard work. Used as part of a sensible diet, you are bound to be impressed with the results.

I have been using this just over a week and already have noticed a change am intrigued to know how it works I lost my confidence when I had a bit of a belly, didn't feel sexy anymore my confidence is gradually coming back I have been using it for a hour a night I will say that I am a epileptic but don't have fits just seizures I thought if started to feel ill would stop using it immediately but doesn't seem to affect my illness but I would suggest others to get advice from there doctor first, the manual is a bit hard to figure out for couple days thought I wasn't doing it right but once started to see my tummy getting smaller thought I must be doing it correct they could do with making thedirections a bit more simpler to figure out we're not all Einstein's but overall would definitely recommend to everyone my dad wants to borrow it after me

i bought this product 3 weeks ago as a whim......I am a marathon runner who keeps really fit but being past 45-ish i have found that my tummy has gone off piste in the past few years and no amount of sit ups can get if flat. I decided to give this a go as it was on offer and there were plenty of good reviews. It is brilliant.....I put it on for about 3 back to back sessions and use it 4 times a week. so far my jean size has dropped and clothes with a waist are feeling looser. I can see the difference, especially on those side abs which are hard to hit with crunches. The product is easy to use, so far the pads have lasted well, and I am delighted. My advice to anyone with a jelly belly is BUY ONE OF THESE.You will not regret it....I cannot wait to show off my newly toned tummy on holiday down in the south of France....x

So far so good. Its well made and packs quite the punch. I was going to go for one of the lesser known makes of belt but decided to stick with a well known brand. My stomach muscles ached nicely the next day so something is obviously working down there BUT if you think this is going the help you lose weight - it wont. Spend your money on the gym. This is more for toning whats already there rather than obtaining the six pack you've always wanted. I'd marry the two for full effect; gym work and slendertone. I'm sure you'd see results after a few months.One last thing.... omg the pads are freezing cold to put on at first. I always wrap the belt around me for a few minutes wearing a T shirt before applying the pads to my skin (keeping the pad covers on).Yes, I'm a wuss. :-)

It's brilliant. I have had a slendertone belt for several years now but this is a more advanced model & there aren't the leads that my old one had. This means that it's completely hidden under my clothes so if time dictates that I have to walk to the shops, or get unexpected visitors, it remains unnoticed. Slendertone belts really work & you can feel your stomach muscles contracting like they would during a workout. You decide how strong you want the contractions to be & I find a 30 minute 'workout' in the morning whilst I'm getting ready or tidying around takes no time out of my day so there is no excuse, no matter how busy my day. Even if I don't do anything else exercise wise it definately helps to keep me in shape.Excellent value - excellent purchase
