Save your money! 
This machine is not capable of spot reducing fat on your abdomen. To get a six pack your body fat needs to be around 10% or lower, although some people can achieve the look with higher. It's cardio you need to do, but I'm sure you won't since you've disregarded the other messages against purchasing this machine.

Focus on your diet bro, not a ab machine.
Six packs come from a strict diet.

IMHO EMS machines are useful when injured to help stimulate muscle fibres. Real muscle can only be increased by resistance training, but it does work on stimulating abs. It will not aid in weight/fat loss, spot reduction doesn't work, and since seing abs is 95% fat loss ... you see my point? if your doing cardio already then just throw in a couple sets of ab work in there and save money. BTW why are you cutting in the winter?

Ask santa for the six pack.
IMO diet is just as important as any machine.

It probably works about as good as HMB.
P.S...HMB doesn`t work.

wtf tone. I am starting to hate that word.
Muscle - fat = toned
Go pump the colored weights for an hour, so you can tone.
Tone is probably rooted from a some latin word meaning "to do nothing"
"whos to say it can't help you tone" how do you tone? you saying its going to do cardio for you? Does it come w/ dnp or something?
That machine is the same as twitching, thing those people w/ nervous twitches get jacked from twitching all day.
I got one last year and sent it back. It is nothing compared to situps. Don't get one. It is a messy waste of money. You have to wipe gel and shit all over your stomach, and replace the belt very often. Its not worth it. And it won't get you looking better faster than abs. They supply you with diet pills anyway. That's the secret. Abs arent' hard to get. Its the low body fat.
ems machines work best if used after training as a final stimulus. on abs, they do work to harden the abs, but not as effectively as a good ab routine. i used to use my 6-pad system for abs when i didnt want to train abs. it helped but it is kind of a hassle (need water on skin, straps, staying in position,...) but it did help to harden the abs. other body parts require some mental work because they will contract in a big way and you cant watch tv too well when this is happening, ems are ok but IMHO you would probably be better off saving your dough
