First, if you buy one of these be aware that it's extremely easy to accidently wipe out all the personal and cardio info it stores. There isn't any way to lock this monitor to protect such loss. I sent this monitor in for repair. They emailed me to tell me they received the monitor. They emailed me to tell me they replaced the circuit board. They had my monitor over a month. I got this monitor back and it works exactly the same as before I sent it in. They did nothing to it. Yes I know how to read and I always read the manuals for everything I buy. This monitor does not display the time when brought to the transmitter belt like it say's it will in the manual. There isn't any way for me to have this display the time while it is monitoring.

I've wanted a HRM since I started working out about a year ago, but I couldn't muster the courage (or money!) to get this one until recently. I bought another one that only gave you your heart rate on demand (instead of constantly), and it drove me up the wall. So I sucked it up and bought this as a replacement. I LOVE this watch. I was floored at how easy it was to use. I didn't even have to read the handbook to figure it out. The chest strap is surprisingly comfy. Yes, you will probably need to wet the probes before you start working out, but I put it on, run around the house picking things up or doing laundry and it usually works when I'm ready to go out for a walk/run. I love that the watch blends in and looks like a regular watch so you can wear it without feeling like you are wearing a man's watch or a small computer! The only problem I have with the watch is that I can't get it as tight as I would like because the strap kind of sticks when trying to attach it or take it off. Nothing major, I just have to remember that I have to be more aware of it than I would of a normal watch. **If you are a larger woman, the watch automatically comes with a size "medium" strap, but it fits me with room to spare. I highly suggest trying the one it comes with before ordering a larger one!** Bottom line: LOVE this product. If you want something that will work easily and well, buy this HRM!
