1 out of 5 stars Completely useless for resting HR   August 18, 2008
Does not pick up a resting HR signal at all. And I know I'm not dead.


1 out of 5 stars Worst choice ever!   April 13, 2008

I bought it for my father and used it only once before it breaks out. The watch simply can't receive the signal from the strap and the HR monitor is totally out of use..............


1 out of 5 stars Not Good Value   March 26, 2008

I agree with many of the reviewers that found the readings unstable. It jumps from 88 to over 160 and back again, and after a short while, the strap looses connection to the watch(this is with new batteries and the unit is less than 2 months old)
I changed this for a Polar FS1 from Tescos for 14.50!!!! and i'ts much better.

It worked great for about 2 months until the display just froze. Replacing the battery had no effect so it ended up in the bin!


2 out of 5 stars worked for a month...update to come   February 13, 2008

I got this for Christmas last year and was thrilled as it worked well and for the first time, I was able to monitor my heart rate during spinning classes. Then, after about a month, I started getting erratic readings. A 20 min brisk walk saw my heart rate go from 90 to 180 in the space of 2 mins, and I was walking at a constant pace the whole time.

I have taken good care of it, wiping it clean after every workout, so was very disappointed when it started acting up.

I rang Amazon and the customer service desk was very helpful and are sending me a replacement. Will see how the next one holds up.
