Too Complicated, Difficult To See Display,
Let me say right off that this device may or may not be worth purchasing for your situation. For me, it was just too much effort to try and get it to work right. My main reason for even considering this was that it has a pedometer AND heart rate function.
As much as I tried to get the heart rate monitor to work, or the pedometer to work, it became just too much effort and this thing now sits in that box of things we buy with good intentions, but just dont want to deal with anymore.
The other problem I had with this is trying to even see the display when I am out jogging. My eyesight isn’t the best, and I should have thought about this beforehand. Even though, the display is not very strong despite my eyesight.
In the future, I will only be looking for a pedometer-only with a very easy-to-read display instead of a multi-function device. Simplicity has its advantages.
Like I said at the start, this product may be right for you, but it was not right for me given my eyesight, 51 yr age and willingness to try and figure out these complex instructions which I understand may be required for a multi-function device like this.

HRM Cheaply Made and Not Waterproof,
This was ordered for my husband,His first HRM System, looking for something to were in rain or snow so when it said “All-In-One Waterproof Exercise Monitoring “That was a big selling feature. But when you read the instructions it states Not to Get the USB Interface wet (it is not waterproof ) you can’t even wash your hands with it on. When he tried on the chest monitor, it took it a few minutes to work, that and the time and date were the only things that did work,No matter what he tried he could not get the interface for the Calorimeter, Pedometer, Speedometer and Odometer to work.It is cheaply made and the only thing that is waterproof is the cheat strap. So he talked to a friend who said that we may want to look into ordering a Garmin. We should have started there in the first place.

Love Data!,
The data storing feature of this watch is great. I hate to admit it, but I am one of those OCD people that loves to keep every aspect of my life organized. It seems like the HRM is very accurate, and so is the distance, speed and steps. I have been using manual step counters before, and I ran it together with this watch, and they were almost identical. A really great product, I am very happy!
