3.0 out of 5 stars Good for light workouts, but difficult to use for more intense activity, March 19, 2007

By	New Mom - See all my reviews

I purchased this monitor to avoid having to wear a chest strap during my workouts. I thought that the strap would be uncomfortable and I like the idea of just touching the face of this monitor and getting my heartrate. The first time I used it, I had little difficulty. It is easy to program, gives an adequate amount of info for the average fitness routine and relatively comfortable. However, once I started my first workout, I encountered some problems. This monitor is difficult, if not impossible, to use while running. You must stop or slow down considerably to allow your fingers to make a decent connection with the sensors. It took me a few tries to get a reading, by which point my heartrate had dropped. I had the same difficulty while spinning. I was not able to keep track of my heartrate until I was sitting and in recovery. This isn't really convenient in a standing climb where you're trying to reach a target and can't tell where you're at until you're finished. Plus, I wasn't always able to get a reading the first time and had to try again, and sometimes again, leaving me with a less than accurate reading.

I still really like the convenience of this item, however it doesn't seem to work for the type of exercise I'm doing. It seems like a great HRM for those who don't like a chest strap and are doing low impact activities or interval programs that allow for some down time in which to get a reading. However if you are involved in continuous or high impact movement, I wouldn't recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Milo Heart Monitor, October 2, 2005

By	R. Ashton "[e-mail]" (Fredericksburg, VA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This watch/heart rate monitor is great and is a lot more convenient than the chest strap type. Good functionality and form. Best one on the market since Casio stopped making their pulse rate watch. Recommended for runners and bikers. I don't use the calorie counter as it requires you to take the booklet with you!

4.0 out of 5 stars Mis is great, but..., May 30, 2006

By	Terry Drizd "Tennisaurus" (Bethany Beach, DE USA) - See all my reviews

This watch/monitor fits the bill in almost every respect - sturdy, easy to read (old eyes!) and operate, and highly useful in a variety of settings. However, it is not especially water- or sweat-proof, and I killed the first one in just a little over a year of daily wear. First the buttons went dead, then the LCD fritzed. However, there is nothing on the market like this in this price range, so I am going back to buy another!
