1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this pedometer! , March 28, 2007

By	R. Linares "not my real name" (Central, IL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Do not buy this pedometer! Not only does it not work, but the design is horrible. There is absolutely nothing intuitive about how to operate the many functions that sound so great, but are completely hidden behind weird button combinations such as: press x twice, touch your nose, press y once, wait two seconds, skip to the garbage can and throw this horrible product in as fast as you can. After attempting to wear it the first day and spending lots of time figuring out their user guide - written in something other than understandable English - by noon, it had completely stopped working. The most horrible thing is, I sent their customer service department an email explaining such - as instructed on their website and they never even bothered to respond. Don't encourage this company until they get their act together. Then I realized that one of my kid's toys - super man computer - was made by Oregon Scientific also. It works but has weird interface also and very few functions after you figure it out. Great packaging and sales job though! This company is all marketing and no scientific! And they clearly have no usability experts!

3.0 out of 5 stars I am satisfied with the item, February 28, 2008

By	Darrel Brasseaux (Baton Rouge, La. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased the pedometer and it all works fine. It took me some time to set it up but all is good. I use it to walk in the shopping mall in the morning and the radio works fine.
I like the size of the pedometer and it works good.

3.0 out of 5 stars seems like a quality product..., May 1, 2009

now if I could just figure how to use all the functions. Directions are difficult to folow and not straight forward. Disappointed that it is not a simple process.
