I purchased a Slim Away belt at Walmart and the second time I put it on the zipper broke, so I took it back to Walmart and got another one. The next one I wore 3 or 4 times then when day when I had it on, the zipper broke again. I was unable to return it this time because I had tossed the box in the trash. It really made me mad how cheaply they are made. $10 may not seem like much money, but it is the principal of the thing. They are a joke. Or I should say the zippers on them are a joke. And no way to contact the company without waiting on hold for 15-20 mins or more. Poor customer service for a poor product.

I bought Slim Away Belt and works great, the only issues I have is I only worn it a few time and the zipper started to mess up on me. I tried to fix it but I haven’t been about to.

Like everyone says, the zipper on this product is plastic but again, you have to apply too much pressure or it will brake. I have worn it for two days for over 8 hrs each day and the zipper has not broken. yet, I have created a good amount of sweat, walking for 45 mins to 1-hr. I like this product but I would lie ke to consider something of this material but more durable. Roberta states that Walmart had something simular but has velcro. If anyone has any other ideas of this type belt, please let me know. Please do watch for SCAMS. TV advertisments (buy one get the other free, just pay separate shipping & Handling) and Websites all have SCAMS. Excersie and eating the right foods at the right time, all help you loose weight.

Thanks

This Slim Away Belt is a bunch of crap (and I don’t normally talk that way). The spacing of the zippers do not make it “fully adjustable”. The only difference it made in how my body looked was that I looked lumpy with it on. I’m taking it back right now. Don’t waste your money and time.

Slim Away belt was a good product until I purchase this product from Walmart and the website (Slimaway). The zippers are not strong and W
they will come a loose.

Belt works great..cheap,yea zipper comes off,its cheap replace it with a stronger steel zipper,slides right on front the top belt is sturdy..a lot of people fail to realize that the zipper will slide right on from top…took me 4 belts to realize it.

Walmart had something similar to Slim Away Belt, it uses velcro instead of a zipper. I found it in the sporting goods by the weights and I would wear it only to work out and I got good results.

yes you can, also Dollar General and Ross stores for $6.97 in some places, but its a total waste, the plastic zipper breaks after the first use. And it just sweats you a tiny bit, good if you have lower back pain though but not good for any weight loss. As the old saying goes if it sounds to good to be true, then it isn’t.

I got one and works great for my back maybe you all should give it time you do also have to maybe do some kind of work out instead of eating French fries with it and come on its $10 not like $100 and if your breaking zippers I’m pretty sure you need more than a slim away it’s called a work out plan!!

I can’t believe I just got 2 Slim Away Belts today and I was very disappointed with the fact that my husband’s zipper broke the same day and my Slim Away show all the lumps though the clothes. What a piece of crap.
