Thinking about buying a Slendertone - anyone used one? Useful or am I wasting my money?

I've been looking at Slendertone and wondering if it may help my mummy tummy.

I've lost my baby weight, am now the right weight and BMI etc. Happy ish with most of my body (well...boobs gone south, stretchmarks and all the rest!) but my tummy and abs are bad. I'm doing some core strengthening excercises [can't do lots of crunches etc as muscles still separated after c-section slaughtered me)], but wondered whether a slendertone may assist (not expecting miracles but even a little more toned would be fab).

Anyone used one? Any positive results? Or just a big waste of money? Am in two minds... expensive but would rather cut back on things this month IF it could make a difference. Any feedback would be swell.

Thank you :)

i have one, the belt one you wear. Is it any good? .. I don't know. Most definitely after you have been wearing it you can feel your muscles. They don't ache like they do after doing sit ups or the like. I bought one after christmas when I embarked on a diet exercise regime. My tummy is definately flatter but I would say that is really due to the diet and running 3-4 times a week (I have lost 2st 7 Grin)

It is a bit of a novelty, when I first got it I used it everyday, then never bothered, then used it again before my holidays. My pads now need replaced (they cost about £10) so it has been lying gathering dust for a while again.

If you can pick one up quite cheaply then go for it, but I would say that exercise is more likely to get you the results you want.
