Griffin tempo Sport Armband for Sansa e200 Series
Griffin Technology Sansa e/c200 Armband, 8099-SNSTMPO

Plastic loop broke the second time I used it. Since it only cost me $5, I threw it away. It's not worth my time calling for a replacement. I think my 5 bucks would have been better spent at the strip club. Don't waste your money buying this P.O.S.

The plastic loop broke at the first I used. They could just spend ten more cents to make it more durable. Griffin won't replace it until you send the the itme back at YOUR cost!

For the price, this is a decent product. The buckle is the first issue; it broke after just a few uses and I had to purcahse a rectangular key ring to rig an alternate buckle. Also, the cut outs in the plastic don't quite match up to the Sansa player which makes it a little difficult to use the buttons easily. If they can solve the buckle issue this would be an outstanding product for the price.

It's a nice piece for my Sansa e260... especially for the price. The velcro itches a bit but playing with adjusting it bit can help minimize the scratching on your skin. Good price.

Broken after 4 uses. The plastic used on this band is not durable, be very careful how tight you close the velcro strap. I did not think it was very tight but the plastic broke on the buckle. Would have been nice if they had charged a few more dollars and used plastic coated metal. Other than construction issues, I really liked it. Now to figure out how to fix it...

It also fits my thick SanDish M240. The part I like most is the orange cord wrap which prevent the earphone wire from breaking due to swinging during running.

I use this for exercising. I lift weights 4 days a week and wear this while doing it. I've now gone through two of these. The plastic loop that the band goes through breaks fairly easily on the sides and the plastic that they use to make them doesn't bond well with glue, so once broken, there's not much you can do. I've gone through two of these. They last about 4 months. If all you do is run, then you're probably not going to have a problem. Anything that causes your arm to flex will cause the clips to be under stress and they will break. The only other complaint I have is that the off button isn't all that easy to get to with this as the Sansa e200 series will move around a bit in the case. You'll have to shift it around to hit the off button and sometimes it won't register. Probably more a problem with the sansa design having the off button so small, off to the corner, and flush with the face, though.

This is an incredible product for the price. I have been using mine for at least a year now. It does have a weak point. There is a rectangular plastic ring that the strap passes through, which is not strong enough. When mine broke, I made a replacement by bending a nail (grinding off the sharp end). With that little retrofit, it now seems just about perfect.

This arm band is comfortable and easy to use. It holds my Sansa well and I can hit the controls with no obstruction.

Quality materials, fantastic price, fits my Sansa e250 like a glove.

While I don't have other armbands to compare this to, this one seems a bit bulky and inconvenient. The Sansa is held snuggly in its pocket, which is fortunate since, in order to be able to read the screen, the pocket opening must be placed facing downward. Some more thought could have been put into the design although the cord holder is a good idea. Still, you can't beat the price!

Keeps the player protected and easily accessible. Volume wheel does not always perfectly line up with hole in shield, but workable.

Well made product. Works great. Only issue is that the buttons are sometimes hard to press thru the plastic. Also the device doesn't align perfectly inside the holder, so sometimes the circular control is off center and difficult to use. They should have made the holder out of molded rubber - similar to a rubber case that I also own for the device. The cover fits perfectly and is tight over the device, making all the buttons/controls easy to use.

Overall just a great product to compliment my Sansa mp3 player! I had another arm band that was three times the money and didn't give the same kind of custom fit, design and functionality and the ear phone tie off is great!

I purchased this for outdoor activities such as yard work and skiing. It fits great and allows easy use of all the controls. My only knock is that the plastic makes it hard to see the player's display. That is to be expected I guess.

This is a great product. Perfect for any player that is Sansa E200 series. Also my Ipod Shuffle fits perfectly. Great for use during Cardio. Can't beat $5.99

Good Value for the money (I got it on sale). I like the cord holder on the side. Use it all the time, with only minor complaints, like the hole in clear plastic is a little off but for the price its a steal.

Bought this thing for my cousin and she loves it. She's only had it for two days, but loves it thus far. I would recommend it to anyone.

I loved the design and feel of this Sansa MP3 holder. The preforations, reflective materials, and addition of a cord wrap were all nice touches. The problem though is the buckle that holds the strap together broke the first time I used this product. The company, Griffin technologies, said they will replace the item as it appears defective.

I bought two Sansa e250's from Buy.com and love them. I installed Rockbox like most everyone else and the little thing performs great. This arm band is a must for working out. The Velcro kind of irritates my arm but I've learned to strap it over my short sleeve shirt.

The armband is well thought out, especially the cord wrap which is perfect for running or lifing weights... less tangles with free weights and machines. I found the hole for the track cirle to be a little off, which is annoying as hell at times. Because of this it can be hard to push some of the buttons.

Excellent product and it has great features (rubber cord wrap; breathable armband). Not to mention that the price I bought it for was really cheap for such a great quality product ($5).

Its a great item in this range, but it falls short in quality. The material used is not a good quality and looks ordinary. Even the transparent plastic is sticky and gets spotty on water drops, over all good in price but if you are looking for a quality then, this is not for you. Use it while outdoor jogging.

Good price. Good fit and works well. Product took a while to ship, but was worth the wait.

I love this and it works great for me. The upside is it works great for my 7yo. He has something to hold onto rather than holding on to the player. This keeps him from hitting any buttons and me from having to reset all the time.

The price was fantastic and the shipping was fast! The armband is easy to adjust and my player fits perfectly. I like the idea of having a place to wrap the extra cord from the headset.

It is almost impossible to find an Armbaband for the Sansa 200 series any more at any price. This is an excellent product at a ridiculously low price.

It fits the Sansa & a few other brands of MP3 players. Feels like quality fabric. Perfect, inexpensive, solution to solve the "where do I put my MP3 player" while working out or even sitting. I bought 4 of them!

The low quality plastic belt ring broke the very first day i used it. It sucks, since i needed it for my gym. Now i dont want to go thru the pain of returning/shipping it back. It was a waste of money.

I bought this for my wife and it has been working out great for her. The price was the best, as this was being sold at a higher prices elsewhere.

I asked for and got one of these as a last minute stocking stuffer. I needed something to protect my Sansa C250 and this does the trick as well as keep it in an easy to operate area.

I am pleased with my purchase. It is a very streamlined unit, with a clear plastic overlay to protect my sansa player. It appears to be very durable and is a great value at $4.99.

I ordered 5 of these as stocking stuffers. They weren't delivered until 12/24 so only one of them got to the recipient for Christmas. The others are in the mail. They seem to be very nice and look like they will be very useful

You can wrap excess headphone cable. Fits e280 like a glove. Wish I would have bought more. If you do a lot of working out with it and sweat a lot the band will break down but I replaced my year old one with a new one and will do it again because of the fit and comfort.

The armband works fine, whether I'm running or washing the dishes. The gizmo for managing extra headphone cord is a good idea, and the sale price was $20 less than any store I checked

Works as advertised, but just know that the clear shield has a big round hole in it to access and use the scroll wheel (doesn't show up in the buy.com photo). Thus, rain and such can still get to your Sansa. Otherwise, it's comfortable, lightweight, and the cable wrap works well.

I gave it to my sister who has an ipod nano, it worked well, although it has a cut out circle that doesn't perfectly align with the ipod nano, otherwise it does the job. She's extremly happy with it.

Bought on sale for less that $10, delivered. Look good, just like the picture. Good quality, no defects, no issues. Fit the sansa e250 perfectly. These armbands fit a normal size or small arm really well. They are comfortable and the material is soft. They don't fit well on a large arm (> 16" dia biceps), but I've never found any armbands that do. Overall, and excellent value for a quality product.

Definitely a great value for five bucks. My only gripe is that the dial does not exactly fit perfectly in the vinyl circular window that is made for it. Great quality though.

This is the best armband I've ever seen! It's comfortable, washable, and it has a cord wrap to keep the extra headphone cord out of your way. I've had no problem operating the controls through the covering. I highly recommend it.

Pretty good product, though the opening doesn't quite line up with the face of the player, it's close enough and works ok. Couldn't beat the price though at $5 when the stores are selling it for $28!

Great product. I like the cable slack clip. I might cut out the plastic around the switches to make easier to get to but other than that I really like.
