I wish I would have seen this website before I purchased the Velform Sauna Belt. I am a new mom and thought this would help lose some of the inches I gained and get the elasticity back in my skin in my stomach and thighs. Boy was I wrong. When I saw it on the infomercial it showed you could do various activities while using it. When I got it and it had to be plugged in to use it, I was so mad. There is no way I have 50 minutes of free time that I am not holding my newborn. And you can't hardly use it while holding a baby. I wouldn't want him to get burned. This product is rediculous. And since I haven't had it for 30 days yet I thought I would return it, well it says there is a "restocking fee" for returning personal care items. What crap! I am very disappointed in this product and myself for thinking it would work. Do not purchase this product!

First of all I only ordered 2 sauna belts and they sent me 3. I called to return the 3rd one and that was fine. I tried the product and realized everything they said it would do was a lie. It only got hot and never made me sweat, so I decided to call and return them. The girl I talked to wouldn't let me return them and asked me to try them for another month so I agreed. After I hung up the phone I regreted agreeing to that because I knew the product didn't work. The time was up and I decided to call again to return them but I couldn't find the number anywhere. I called 411 and they game a number where I couldn't speak to a rep. only leave messeges. I left a few messeges even online, but did't get an answer. finally I found the number by someone who had posted it on their complain and I called. They said it was too late and they couldn't return my money. I am so angry at these people they lie about the product and they take our money. Im going to try to send the belt and hopefully get my money back.

My husband bought this product from an "As Seen on T.V" store and it guaranteed this product. The store owner went on to say that the product made her husband lose 5 pounds. The next day, after much contemplating, my husband went and purchased the product. Upon paying for the belt, the owner told my husband to wear a shirt and the belt over it as sometimes the heat of the belt can cause the skin to become red....WELL>>>>> becoming Red was the least of my husband's problems. After wearing the belt OVER HIS SHIRT, and him lying on his back for 50 mins (as stated in the instructions), he took off the belt to find 3 dime-size welt, blister and burn marks. I'm telling all of you to STAY away from this product. As for any Class-Action Law Suits - count us in.

I bought one (okay, I'm 2x as stupid, two) of these belts, and tried it out. I'll admit I didn't follow the rules specifically: I had recently eaten dinner, and I wore it sitting down (YOU going to stand for 50 minutes?). Unfortunately, I went 3 for 3 and fell asleep too.. I assume the unit shut off after 50 minutes; but I'm not certain. What I do know is that it only got hot directly under the heating units (there are two, and I can point out EXACTLT where), and I never sweat. What I did do is burn and blister, and now I have marks (it's been about 6months) permanently on my stomach (scars). I saw someone mention a civil suit...well, I've got lovely marks showing the damage of which this piece of c*$* is capable...so I'm game. Be smart(er than me) and avoid this thing like the extremely dangerous garbage that it is.

I'm sick of people thinking that thry can just scam people. Anyone who want to File a Civil Suit about this I am ALL IN. I ordered the Velform Sauna Belt for a First payment of 39.99 and two additional payments of 39.99 plus shipping and handling. So it cost me about 120.00 to get burned. Not right at all. The switch does not turn off after 50 minutes like it says and I can move around the way I want. I'm stuck somewhere around a socket. This is ridiculus. This Belt burned me and gave me rashes. Please read just any one of these complaints and you will decide not to buy it. IT DOES NOT WORK, NO SWEAT NO NOTHING. On top of that the company that they deal with to give you a free 50 wal- mart card got me too. When my package came DealPass said that I would have to be a member in order to receive my free gift card. Of course membership is not free. I cancelled the free membership they had provided me with before 30 days so that I would not be charged. I figured it makes no sense to pay them 14.95 a month just for a free wal mart card along with the other worthless perks. It takes 4-6 weeks for me to get the card, SHIT I would have alreday paid for it. On top of that I dont look at my credit card statements much because i pretty much no my balances and 14.95 is pretty hard to miss. For 5 months They were still taking 14.95 out off my card. They said the computer showed that i had never cancelled. Shit and how I wish i hadnt threw away my confirmation. They refunded me for the last 2 payments. I still never received the gift card.

I had this product delivered from Canada. It's a waste of my money. This product is CRAP. Everyone keeps getting burnt but my Sauna Belt only worked for a minute before the remote stopped working, so now the whole belt is fucked up. It does not work and this company doesn't take the complaints seriously.When I emailed the frauds they did not reply. So please do not buy this product. Just get on a treadmill or bike instead and burn your calories. This company should be held liable for thier faulty products. I'm not happy with thier bloody service.

I purchased the damn belt and all it did was cause me pain. i thought "hey why not try this out sounds effective and good." and voila! it gave me this disguisting certainly NOT bathing suit rash on my tum. My advice is to just wrap a towel tightly around you waist it probably works much better then the belt. I could also not get a refund seeing as i had no clue who to contact. what frawds!

I received the sauna belt in January. I did not get burned by it, but I did get rashes, and I DIDN'T sweat. I had a terrible time trying to find out how to return the belt for a refund, and I just found the number today. They refused my refund as I was past the 30-day guarantee, but I thought I'd post the number that I called, in case anyone else out there has had trouble finding it: 1-877-835-2080.

Buying the Sauna Belt is the biggest mistake I have ever made. Excited I was to get the belt, but once I'd put it on, all I could do was cry in pain. Yes I cried. Wearing the sauna belt is like placing a hot iron plate on the your skin and unable to take it off because the velcro is stuck in the back and as you struggle to get it off the pain only intensifies as the wires comes into deeper contact with your skin. A dreadful product, absolutely dreadful!

I purchased the sauna belt from '[]' store in canada and paid over $90.00. All it did was leave a horrible rash all over my stomache. I did not sweat at all. I thought I was doing something wrong. So atempted it a few more times, only to end up with welts all over my stomache. I wish i would have thought to find and look at this web site before purchaseing.

Well, this product did nothing but get hot & give me welts. They also lied re: being able to walk around while wearing it, no, you had to plug it in & lay down for an hour. It also did not turn off like it claimed it would. I would really like to stop company's from scamming people. On top of this I cannot get my money back because I do not know who to contact, they fail to give you that info. and it's not cheap at all.

I purchased the product and it only served to confirm what others on this web site have already said. Basically, it's a sham and does not in any way work as advertised. A glorified heating pad, I feel like an incompetent ass for being stupid enough to buy it. The product is not UL approved and may very well be a fire hazard as others have suggested.

I uesd the belt, for some time, and all it did was bring blisters, and burns on my stomach, it started smoking one day when I was using it, the fabric was melting, very unsafe!

I purchased the Velform Sauna Belt and used it right before Christmas 2005 after seeing it on an infomercial. I thought I was doing something wrong when I did not sweat like the folks on tv. The package does come without contact information. But I saved my credit card bill and took the company's contact information from that. I am happy to say that I did get my refund from the company after calling and complaining.

Yes I bought it used it and its like everyone else said, but to top everyones story here, the belts wiring is faulty it burned my house down and everything I owned was lost in the fire! The belt was plugged into wall socket by my bed. My daughter was sleeping in the bed and while she was sleeping she may have accidently hit the knob and the belt was turned on. I smelled smoke went to check things out and found my bed with my daughter on it smoldering. The only thing left that I saw before my house went up in smoke was the cord burning into my mattress. I lost my house, all our belongings and one of my dogs and all my birds. Most definitly not a very happy person and the company should be held accountable for this.

I purchased this product for $34.95, I wish I checked out this sight first because I would have never bought this product. I wore it for about 40 minutes and my stomach was bright red and burned looking for about 3 hours. I didnt even wear it tight & had it on a low setting. It is the worst and this company should not get away with this!
