Great Product

Rating:*****
I bought this product to help me with my training. I'm a competitive cyclist and I needed a HRM in order to help me train. Overall this is a good product that is competitively priced. It is easy to use and set up. I have never had a problem with mine and it keeps a very accurate reading. I have had a lot of success with Suunto products. Although, my one grip might be durability. Im pretty tough on my equipment and the plastic face of my watch is pretty marked up. I wish that the face was a little more durable. Other than that I have no gripes. The average person would probably not be a harsh on their watch. Feel free to give it a try.

It Just Works

Rating:*****
I use this watch while running to monitor my heart rate, beep at set bpm and monitor calories burned.

It's a simple watch that works very well and reliably, plus it's thin and lightweight — I barely notice it.

Bought a second one as a gift.

Better than most

Rating:****
I would say that this is definately better than Polar. I am still new with it and so far so good. The chest belt is comfortable and doesn't slip down. I would recommend this product.

Look for something else!

Rating:*
I spent a few days looking at HRM's from many sites[...]I checked reviews and a few You Tube videos. It sure looked differently on the PC than it does in your hand. There were only a hand full of middle of the road reviews, but nothing terrible as why not to buy this[...] I decided to buy from EMS. I have always counted on EMS to cover ANY problems with anything I've ever purchased. Thank you once again EMS!Now wanting to attempt to become active once again after a very long period of being stuck in the house due to complex medical issues, I felt it was necessary to buy a HRM due to Rouleaux's Blood disorder, and high BP from medications needed for sleep and pain, among other issues. I was SO disappointed when I received this HRM/watch. I could not believe this cost $100+. But, I gave it a couple of days use to see if I could live with it. Not!Very cheap looking for starters. The watch band was difficult to remove (hard to believe). I only wore this three times. The second time my wrist had swollen a bit and I had a heck of a time getting it off to adjust the band. Now at 52+ and using trifocals, I could barely make out any display other than the time, and that was iffy depending on ambient light. This is the most poorly created type of display I have ever seen on any watch, and the first HRM I have actually seen in person (to be fair).The connectors on the chest strap were also very difficult to remove, but, it was very comfortable once adjusted and worn. I even forgot I was wearing it. That is about the only positive thing I have to say about the unit. The manual was not very user friendly IMO. It was an easy decision to return the unit.While most of the descriptions asked for the review do not apply, I intend to use this for walling (maybe one day jogging), bicycling, and lake kayaking. I decided on a Garmin Forerunner 305 instead. I found a new one with full unlimited lifetime warranty for[$]
