It's almost impossible to push the correct button on this thing while you're wearing it. The mesh slides and the buttons don't line up with the cover when you're in motion.
Unless you are a runner, or working out for a very long time, it is not worth the bother of installing the player into the cuff, then plugging in the earphones at the bottom. It is easier to drop the player into a pocket without the arm band.
They are not. The worst part about it falling off is there's no way you can put it back on midworkout unless you stop and get help. Then after the workout the Zen is wet from sweat soaking into the band. If it's a tiny bit too tight it cuts off circulation and if it's a tiny bit too loose it falls off.
They shouldn't have a job. Don't buy this product. The band is a little wide and big and not that comfortable without any elastic. I was thinking that not seeing the screen wasn't that big of a deal, which I still think isn't too bad, except for every once in awhile where you want to switch to a particular song or a different playlist during the workout. Also, I thought that the people saying it was hard to put on were exaggerating. He usually has to adjust it a few times before it's right. I have tried leaning on a wall and using my teeth to put it on myself, but it fell off 2 of the 3 times I did it and I can't get the band to line up myself.
Who the heck would put this on the market. I read the reviews and bought it anyways. Every day before I workout I turn my Zen on, put the Zen in the pouch, hook up the headphones, then wait for my husband to put the band on for me. I have to take out the headphones, take off the armband, then take the Zen out of the band to turn it off and let everything air out.
The arm band fit my mp3 player perfectly and allows me to change the volume, songs, etc., while it is in the band, but the band does not fit well around my arm. It is difficult to keep it from slipping down my arm without cutting off my circulation.
To top it off, it's impossible to get this armband to stay positioned on your arm unless you tighten it so much that it could pass for a tournique. I found it difficult to get the Zen into this armband, and once I did, it's almost impossible to access the functions on the Zen. Don't buy this garbage.
