TANGRAMFactory Smart Rope - LED Embedded Jump Rope - See Your Fitness Data in MID-AIR

I bought this smartrope recently, and have now had about a month of usage. The thickness and stiffness of the rope were something that I had to get used to in the beginning, but after using it three times this was no longer an issue. The same goes for the led-lights embedded in the rope: they appear in a flash each time the rope passes, and only after I got used to the rope was I able to see the display clearly. Since then the smartrope has been working perfectly, with no signs of wear and tear so far.

Good concept but sadly build quality isn’t there LED. lights stopped work after 4/5 weeks.I use it for my K1 warmup and I roughly skip for 20min 3/4 times a week and this product looked ideal to keep a record of my skipping but after 4 weeks or so LED’s started fade I thought maybe needs charging but battery was full. And now only 5 LED’s comes on which doesn’t really display anything.Like I said good concept but quality of the build isn’t anywhere near for someone uses it so regular and fast skipping

This rope is such a fun way to workout and really motivates me. I love the app that connects with it. It gives you recommended workouts, awards as you improve and you can even compete with your Facebook friends. The rope itself is of good quality and turns around very smoothly.

So far so good. Delivered as promised, it’s a lot of money but if you want to have an easy way to record exercise and money is not the driving factor you need to buy and appreciate the benefits.It’s a pity wear on some surfaces can be a problem but plastic on tarmac/concrete/gravel the rope will lose. Nothing lasts forever I skip on a polished tile floor and still see damage so only time will tell.Having USED the rope I have lowered my review to 3* because the extra price for the LCD display that I have been incapable of reading under any light or dark conditions makes it an expensive gimmick.The picture does not show that the width of the rope in the LCD area is pronounced so may be a problem for some. The extra weight of that area may be considered helpful in rotation.The handle covers are to my mind a gimmick as I don’t have any grip issues.For me the App makes it worthwhile as I can skip and let the technology link to my other sports Apps to accumulate exercise and health data. Pity it doesn’t pick up Heart Rate Monitor info.

LEDs no longer work after a month of use.

Very good product, service also excellent.

Rope splits quickly

I’m 162cm. Should have got a small. I can only see the numbers inside and only sometimes. Wouldn’t recommend.
