About Mio
The story of Mio began in 1999 when it was created by entrepreneur and mother of three, Liz Dickinson. Like many of us, Liz balances family and career, leaving little time for fitness. After several unsuccessful attempts to achieve her fitness goals and shed the pregnancy weight-gain of her third child, Liz turned to a personal trainer for advice. While working with a trainer, Liz realized the key to getting in shape and staying in shape is to practice smart eating habits, monitoring calorie intake, and using a heart rate monitor to ensure that she exercises at the right level. Liz realized there wasn't a product available on the market that would easily help her follow her trainer’s advice.

Liz didn't have time to read labels and carry a calorie journal in her purse, nor did she have much patience for the uncomfortable chest strap she had to wear to get her heart rate. She knew there had to be a better way, so Liz used her technology and marketing savvy to create Mio, the world’s first heart rate monitor to work without a chest strap. And, it didn't stop with just heart rate, as Mio also has a patented calorie management system that offers a straightforward approach to managing your diet. With the help of Mio and a balanced diet, Liz was able to shed those unwanted pounds and gain the benefits that come with improved fitness: more energy, more vitality, and less stress, and help many others do the same with the creation of Mio's products.

5.0 out of 5 stars simple but accurate, February 24, 2006
By 
bill e (chappaqua, ny) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mio Wave Heart Rate Watch (Sports)
purchased watch because it did not require a chest strap. readings are accurate. (i checked them manually by taking my own pulse at my wrist.) if you don't get a reading, try it again...never went beyond two tries while on treadmill. (% heart rate number not meaningful as there are several ways to calculate maximun: 220-age; 220 - 1/2 age, etc.)

would buy again...worth price.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Product So Far, October 3, 2005
This review is from: Mio Wave Heart Rate Watch (Sports)
I got this watch because I wanted to be able to check my heart rate easily during exercise. I've been using it for almost a month and its been great for this. It's a very simple design and you don't have to wear a chest strap (which was also a major reason why I got this watch.) I was a little afraid at first about how well it would work after I read the reviews, but so far I haven't had any problems. For the money I think its an excellent product.

1.0 out of 5 stars Mio Wave Heart Rate Watch junk!!!, April 26, 2007
This review is from: Mio Wave Heart Rate Watch (Sports)
I had a heart rate watch a long time ago that did not work well. I thought they may have improved over the years, but I was so wrong. I would say if all you do is sit on the sofa and move very little then this watch will work for you. If on the other hand you want to work out then save you money on this watch. When biking I can't get a reading at all. When I bike on a stationary bike I get readings of 196 to 205 bpm and never changes. Even after am done and have cooled down it still is around 196 bpm. I was 2 days pass the 30 days to return to Amazon so they would not take it back. I called Mio and got a message that it would be faster to hang up and they would call back with in 5 days, what a joke. I called again and the same thing, they have a good thing going there and saving a lot of money from not replacing the junk they sell. Very, very upset with this watch and the non service they give..none! Buy this watch at your own risk or if you have money to throw away. I gave it a 1 star only becouse there was no zero to put in. JUNK JUNK JUNK!!!!!!!
