Saw the commercial, read the gadget review here, and decided to give it a try. (Bought from WalMart with the free DVD for $19, WAY less than the commercial is advertising for.)

Based on the footage of people using the Shake Weight, I was led to believe that the device was mechanical, doing the shaking for you. BOY WAS I WRONG!

Upon listening carefully to the commercial again, it tells you that it is a “manual device which requires no batteries.” I was deceived by the toned beauties on the commercial shaking the weight in very small movements which looked mechanical! LOL

To its credit, I have used it for about 2 minutes and I am already “feeling it” in my arms. I’m still not sold and am keeping my receipt, but am willing to give it a try.

Diet Doctor,

Your reply to this post makes no sense. The device is supposed to be used for toning and sculpting muscle – not weight loss.
