I’ve worn this product several times for our vacations in Hawai’i and haven’t seen a shark yet. It gives me peace of mind and I’m able to relax and enjoy the ocean.

Likely a false sense of security, but I'll take it over nothing.

living in Australia this is always on my mind, so any additional measure to prevent an attack is helpful to ease my mind a bit.

Wore these in South Africa swimming. It turned out a lot of the locals wore them and felt they worked.Comfortable fit. No rubbing even on a 2hr swim.Not too heavy and you didn't notice them once on.No problems getting them through airport security either - hand luggage (we did flights with 1 band in hand luggage each (total 8 flights) and I did a separate flight with 2 in hand luggage no issues at all across 4 airports Inc Heathrow, Johannasberg & Glasgow).

I've had my Sharkband for 3 years and 4 trips to the NC coast. I usually spend about 2-3 hours a day in the ocean for a five-day stretch each time. There are reported shark attacks in that area, but I've had absolutely no problems. I'm not sure if it's due to this band, or if I am lucky, but I do feel a lot less nervous while wearing the band on my ankle, especially if I'm the only one in the water!

So, I purchased this item right before leaving to the Dominican Republic thinking what an awesome idea to use while snorkeling or diving! Super excited to see how it works!! Once we were there we didn’t feel the need to use the band due to the water being really clear and felt as though we didn’t need it for this trip.But, we do have other beach trips planned and I do swim in the gulf in Texas which the band would be really helpful and put my mind at ease!So, the band was NEVER taking out of our suitcase while in the Dominican!We flew home on Sun country airlines and checked our bag in thinking the band couldn’t go in our carry on bags, well big mistake!! Once we got home I opened the suitcase to find that the box that the band came in was empty! Not very happy that I purchased which wasn’t cheap and didn’t even get a chance to use it...So just a heads up! Keep your band or bandz with you at all times while traveling! People like to steal and it’s really sad! I made a complaint to Sun Country, but I’m sure they won’t refund my money!! UgggBut, I am still giving this product a 5 star because I did my research on it and it’s proven to work!

Was paddle boarding 100 yards off the beach and came upon a small hammerhead. The shark jolted away when I got with 6 feet. Rays and other fish never did that nor were afraid of my profile but the shark did, so looks like its worth the money now that its proven!

I say , why wouldn't you own a SharkBanz. If you have not taken time to see this companies video on YouTube do it. I am in the ocean allot and this product really works. Fits comfortably on your wrist or ankle. All of my shark encounters have been suddenas they often are. But when you are wearing SharkBanz the sharks that do come into you will quickly dart away. I want to enjoy my time in the ocean and not be thinking I have to be looking around the whole time for surrounding sharks. Great Value for the money, So go enjoy a swim in the ocean but don't for to wear your SharkBanz.

The feel of it is high quality. I have seen the product review and testing videos on YouTube but there is controversy as sharks are unpredictable and people are entitled to their opinion of any product. However, I feel that this is a high quality product based on its construction alone. The fact it does not need batteries is impressive! I did not know that until I investigated further. The only thing I need now is to take it into the ocean and see what happens... I will post back soon but know that this product HAS been tested in a variety of conditions and you have to be your own scientist conducting your own experiment every time you dive with shark species nearby.

Imorptant to know before buying. Once received the instructions advise that Sharkbanz do NOT work against great white sharks apparently due to their ambush nature of attack. I'm from Cali and this would be nice to know first. I bought 2 for a trip to Kauai with the wife so I'll still use. It's stylish, maybe a little heavier than I thought. Just beware what you are using them for before opening the wallet.
