User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars The sleeve does its job well.
This sleeve was easy to put on the balance board, it has never fallen off, it’s easy to wipe down to clean, and if we have bare feet then it isn’t slippery at all to stand on. In fact it’s a little more cushy than the bare balance board so it feels better to use. I’m glad we bought it.
4 Stars So What’s the Verdict – good or bad/
i just bought a Fit, and am not too keen about putting our bacteria-laden feet on the board. Do any of those Wii Fit skins work?
Thanks, Ron
5 Stars A nice compliment to the Wi-Fit!
I had read all the reviews about this product, and most of the successful ones described it as a snug fit, but one you could manage if you took your time. I fully expected a small battle of sorts, but was prepared to go slow so as not to rip the thin material. I didn’t have any trouble at all and it makes for a nice way to protect the white surface. So far it seems easy to clean, and the glow-in-the dark feature is a cool little perk.
3 Stars Be Careful
Shortly after getting the sleeve and installing it on my balance board, I began to get an error message (please step off the board) when I was not on the board. Wii tech support suggested I re-initialize my balance board without the sleeve and try it without the sleeve. It has worked fine since I’ve gone “sleeveless.”
Your mileage may vary….
3 Stars Its pretty good.
Luckily, I bought this for 3 dollars during the Thanksgiving Black Friday Sale. It is definitely worth $3, but im not sure $20. The sleeve fits well on the board, but i had trouble getting Wii Fit to recognize me, and it took a couple times to register. I took the sleeve off, and It recognized me right away. Also, I dont know if its just me or not…but It seems the sensitivity is a little different with the sleeve. I played Wii Fit Ski Shloham, and the handling was a lot easier….every sutle motion was not detected. Last, when I took the sleeve off and used the board normally, It felt a lot more slippery…I dont know if that was because I was used to the sleeve though or the sleeve somehow made it more slippery, but I didnt remember it being like that before I put the sleeve on….Overall, I would say get it if you can find it cheap.
