I suppose it works alright if you can properly input your personal information (average stride length, etc.) I've had to play with it a lot to get it close to acurate. The one complaint I have is that it is slightly generous on telling you how many calories you've burned. It adds about 10 per mile. One plus is that it stores 8 days worth of workout information. I'm not sure if it can store multiple entries per day though. I prefer sleek, light-weight watches. I was afraid this one would be too bulky and manly, but it's not too bad. Regardless, it's still a really fun product. Rating: 4 Submitted: 11/29/2008 7) good watch I am very happy with this watch. It is surprisingly accurate, and I didn't have any trouble programming it, though the directions do seem a bit confusing at first. Rating: 5 Submitted: 7/11/2008 6) good buy if not looking for heart rate has pedometer, has timer, lap time, dual time, alarm clock settings like it however wish it had a heart rate monitor as well Rating: 3 Submitted: 6/9/2008 5) Fairly accurate and functional . . . if you can figure out how to program it I can echo the sentiments of the other reviewers that this watch is complicated to program and has intricate instructions. Luckily for me, my husband is a gadgets genius and was able to basically program it for me. While not everyone may have access to a geek that can figure this stuff out, I can say that measuring the stride didn't prove to be very accurate in my case. What worked well when we were programming it was running on a set course and adjusting as necessary. Specifically, we got out on a trail that has 1/2 mile markers and would just adjust my stride down if it was overshooting much past .5 miles or adjust it up if it was showing shorter mileage than the distance we knew we had gone. We did this over the course of a 5-mile course, checking it first at the .5 mile mark, then after a full mile and then after 2.5 miles. It was fairly accurate after we had tweaked it over the first 2.5 miles. However, I have noticed it can be upwards of +/- .3 mile off at times. While this is annoying, it's important to note that it isn't an exact science while it is computing the distance based on your stride's length etc. The other thing I would say is that the Speed part seems to vary widely from moment to moment when you check it. When I'm doing a fairly consistent pace, it will go from 6.6mph to 7.2 mph etc. This could account for why the distance can be off a bit I suppose. Overall, the watch is functional and gives me a rough estimate of how far I've gone, how long I've run, how many calories I've burned etc. While I wish it was more accurate and that I could have programmed it on my own, it's good enough for me. Rating: 3 Submitted: 3/2/2008 4) Twice the distance I bought this product specifically for the pedometer function - unfortunately it counts far too many steps for the distance covered (I measured this on my eliptical and simple counting paces as I walked). Also if you take a rest or sit down it continues counting steps! After a period it stops counting and then when you resume exercise you have to start the pedometer again - a hassle! I set it to automatically start counting steps at 1am each day - so if you get up to pee in the night it starts beeping to alert you that you have started walking - which will wake up a light-sleeping spouse. All the other (MANY) functions appear to work fine - but I dont use them as I really only wanted a watch/pedometer, but if I really want to count my steps I revert to a clip on type. The most useful feature for me is the light - it's so bright I use it like a flashlight when I get up in the night! If you like lots of little gizzmos - you might like it - consider getting an electronics degree before trying to figure out the instruction manual though! Definitely not worth the money.
