 A Great Monitor Watch October 24, 2008
This is a great way to monitor your heart rate. I use it 3-5 days a week when I work out. If you are looking for continous monitoring, buy a watch with a chest strap. This is for spot monitoring and does an excellent job at that. My only complaint is that it does not last for many years. I have owned several versions of this watch over the last 5 years. It seems that the watch has a lifespan of about 1 1/2 years. (The batteries last about 7-8 months and are relatively easy to change.) However, with the price of the watch falling over time, I have continued to replace it, as it is excellent and accurate.
Easy to use October 4, 2008
The Mio is easy to up-load with the required data and very reliable in keeping time and reading your pulse. The only problem is while working out, the sweat on your wrist makes it a little difficult to get a quick read on your pulse.
Reliable HR Monitor at an Amazingly Low Price October 3, 2008
This Mio that I have been using for the past several weeks is well worth the money. I prefer heart rate monitors with the chest strap because they give a continual readout of heart rate and percent of max HR.
This unit, because it is strapless, requires the placement of two fingers on sensors for about 8 seconds in order to get a HR reading. Therefore, I find its use limited to certain cardio activities I do, such as the elliptical machine at the gym; certainly, having to press the sensors is not possible while cycling, so for activities that require both hands, I use my monitor with the chest strap.
The Mio is comfortable on the wrist and I find that it gives an exceptionally accurate readout of both heart rate and calories burned, as well as percent of max heart rate. Setting up the watch is simple and is fairly intuitive.
I recommend the Mio, but do be aware of the limitations imposed by having to take 8 seconds and both hands to get a reading!
 Mio heart rate monitor October 2, 2008
I am very happy with my purchase of the Mio heart rate monitor. I always wear one when I'm working out and I seem to go through a couple a year. I work out 4 to 5 times a week and often wear this instead of a watch. I would recommend this product.
 battery cannot be replaced by owner /these are defective September 17, 2008
cannot replace battery on unit, no watch shop is equipped to replace batteries and if you send it back they will ship you a defective one in its place...you get what you pay for-good luck
