User Ratings and Reviews
3 Stars transmitter problems
I love this thing but I certainly didn’t get the life I was expecting. The transmitter no longer works and I have to get a new one rather than replacing the battery. I only got it in April and this is June. I am not even sure I can find where to get one! IU actually have two of them, plus an older one
5 Stars love it my first heart rate monitor
I love my polar black dimond heart monitor!
If this is the first heart monitor you will love it…the strap seems uncomfortable but is not! At the end of the day I barely notice since I put under my sports bra. And the cool thing is that it does send the information to the treadmill and you don’t have to watch on you wrist instead.
Also I like the fact that I can download my work out to the polar site and track how many calories I have burned. Is pretty easy.
I didn’t buy from amazon because they don’t have the best price yet.. I paid $ 94 because the site I bought price match jomashop site. 5/2009
I am only 5f short and not a super petite skinny girl.. and I like the way the watch looks!
1 Star Intermittent Operation – Disappointed
The Heart Rate Monitor worked okay for about two months then became unreliable. The heart rate goes in and out of lock. Wetting the chest band helped in the beginning. The watch display started to fade after about one year. I was so disgusted with the reliability I decided to try replacing the watch battery myself….don’t try it. I disposed of the watch/waste band in the trash…….no loss. The watch/chest band must be retured to a dealer for battery replacement. After reading HRM reviews I decided to buy the Timex Heart Rate Monitor at Costco for $39 (user replaceable batteries). All I need is a HRM that will show I have reached my target HR, I do not need all the bells and whistles, it’s on the workout equipment.
4 Stars Easy to Use & Helpful
I purchased Polar F6 because my trainer told me it was one of the best HRMs in the market, so I took his word for it! For a beginner, as myself, the Polar F6 was easy to use and program, it is VERY helpful with monitoring my HR during my workouts and I feel the benefits of working within zone. The F6 provides easy to access data and keeps a record of your workouts to note progress. Overall is a good quality HRM and I am sure I am not using it at its full capacity…but for my basic needs, the F6 was a great investment.
3 Stars Ok Product
I really liked this Heart Monitor but had major problems with the chest strap. I had to tuck it under my sports bra for it to stay in place and not end up around my waist. I had it the tightest it could go, if it could have been a little tighter maybe I would have kept it. However, after reading into the Motiva Mio heart monitor I realized that to get an accurate reading you need the chest strap. So I might purchase this one again….
