My Wife bought one. It worked ok for her or the first couple weeks because prior to that she had no real previous ab training. But after that it was not good. Its not worth the money in my opinion. What works best for ab training is much cheaper. Here is part of an answer that I posted to a similar question

What has worked for me is doing crunches with weights on my ankles and a weight plate on my chest. For starters you can use a heavy book and hold it on your chest with your arms crossed over it. Use a weight heavy enough so you can only do 8 to 10 reps. do this for 3 sets twice one day ( morning and evening ) then rest them the next day. The rest day is necessary because Exercising doesn't build the muscle, it tears them down. What builds the muscle is the repairs that the body makes while resting.

This will build your outer abs. Another exercise you will want to do is called vacuums. You get on your hands and knees push all the air out of your lungs and suck your stomach in like your trying to touch your belly button to your spine. What this does is build the muscles on then Inside and creates great definition. Arnold Schwartzenegger used this religiously to create amazing definition in his abs.

Good Luck!

Just do regular abs; 30 seconds each of abs, crunches, supermans, planks, side planks, bicycles, etc. every other day, working your way up to 45 seconds/ a minute and spend your money on a new swimsuit to show them off :) If don't know many exercise besides crunches to work your abs just google 'ab workouts' or something similiar and i'm sure you'll find pictures and instructions.

Dont even waste the energy it takes to sit and watch that commercial.

I always say these marketed diets and miracle working things are insulting to the savvy and unfair to the uninformed
