4 out of 5 stars Excellent product for the price   September 9, 2008
Kyrielle
I've used this pedometer for over a month now and am very pleased with the product.
It was much simpler to figure out and setup than other (more expensive) pedometers and step counters I have used previously.
The pedometer functions well and has survived through some very rough handling and being dropped to the ground frequently (due to the fact that I walk with three large and very playful dogs.)
It even endured being accidentally left out overnight on damp grass and is in perfect working order.
For the price, I consider it to be an excellent value.
The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is that although I enjoyed the accompanying CD and have used it several times, it is probably not challenging enough for most advanced level fitness walkers.



1 out of 5 stars Won't last long   June 2, 2008
M. Duffy (Boston, MA USA)
This pedometer lasted about 4 or 5 days. After that the display went all strange and completely unreadable. It didn't get wet, I didn't drop it, it just suddenly stopped working.


1 out of 5 stars Not for "aging eyes"   April 22, 2007

I do not recommend this pedometer for anyone who has trouble seeing up close.I don't normally have to read with reading glasses, but I could not read anything other than the larger numbers and words on the display. There are some smaller ? words or letters on the far right side that are microscopic in size. I was reading under ideal conditions in my house. The overall operation of this pedometer was not user friendly. This was the first pedometer that I have purchased. I may not ever buy another unless I can try it first. Although I did not purchase this pedometer for the accompanying cd, (I didn't want to have to rip it to my computer then download it to my mp3 player) I did listen to it. It will put you to sleep. Your heart rate will increase just attempting to operate this piece of junk.
