I recently received my SPRI Xertube Resistance Band and so far it is everything it claims to be. The product is very well made and is just like the ones I use at the gym. There's a lot of choice out there when it comes to resistance bands, but I believe that you cannot go far wrong with SPRI. I already own a red band (<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/SPRI-ES501R-Xertube-Resistance-Band-with-Door-Attachment-and-Exercise-Charts-Red-Medium/dp/B0000AJ050/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">SPRI ES501R Xertube Resistance Band with Door Attachment and Exercise Charts (Red, Medium)</a>) and bought a blue band so that I can step up the resistance.  When I use my resistance bands I start out with the red and then step up to the blue.
