I was very impressed with the functionality of the unit. I had purchased it for a friend but when I learned of the different features I knew there was an application for myself as well. I travel extensively and need to use its features develop a fitness program for myself that I can use as I travel.

This is a good, basic heart monitor. I like the "own zone feature" since my gym has lots of equipment lined up in close quarters and it's easy to get someone else's heart rate. I didn't give it 5 stars simply because when the battery dies on any Polar monitor, you have to send it in to them for replacement, which I don't like about Polar. When it works though, they do make a good monitor and even knowing my distaste for their policy, I still bought another Polar to replace the one that wore out.

I am a very big guy - I was worried the strap wouldn't fit, but it fits just fine and is very comfortable. The watch is great and fits around my abnormally large wrist as well.It is easy to use, and I haven't had the problem of the watch picking up other people's heart rate. This has always been very accurate, and helpful in my workouts. I don't need/want all the fancy stuff from the higher models - I highly recommend this one. (plus, I started my search at Live Search and got cashback after the purchase)
