    4.0 Stars tips for use: wet the chest strap (i have quite a bit of hair) for good contact & turn the watch mode to the time (not heart rate) mode when done exercising.
  2. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars i had no trouble at all with this product, it has been reliable and the chest strap is fairly comfortable to wear (i doubt that any of them feel like you aren't wearing one).
  3. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars before this product i purchased a heart rate monitor that was able to monitor one's heart rate without a chest strap, thinking that merely having a wrist watch would be less of an inconvenience.
  4. from www.amazon.com
    4.0 Stars what i also like about it is that i can just put on just the chest strap, and it would transmit my heart rate onto a treadmill or an oplitical machine without the watch.
  5. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars the chest strap is a little weird at first (as this is my first monitor), but you won't recognize it once you start working out.
Positives: Comfortable, Easy To Use, Nice Accuracy

    4.0 Stars also, the chest strap if moved won't read your heart rate.....which if you are exercising and not paying complete attention to it.....
  2. from www.amazon.com
    4.0 Stars it comes with the watch receiver and the chest strap transmitter.
  3. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars it does have a chest strap which i found uncomfortable the first couple of times i wore it but i'm used to it now and it doesn't bother me.
  4. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars polar makes the best hr monitors, and it works with all their chest straps - coded and uncoded, and even with ones that are not from them.
  5. from www.amazon.com
    4.0 Stars was also worried about the comfort of the chest strap - do not notice it any more than my bra.
Positives: Comfortable, Great Accuracy, Easy To Use

  1. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars i rec'd a different heart rate watch for xmas - but it had the cumbersome chest strap monitor.
  2. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars i knew i wouldn't use a heart rate monitor if i had to wear a chest strap, so i was thrilled to find this one existed - and that it is so accurate.
  3. from www.amazon.com
    4.0 Stars this product is simple and very nice for those who don't want to use the chest strap style monitors.
  4. from www.amazon.com
    4.0 Stars the chest strap technology does provide an advantage in that area, if the feature comes with your product.
  5. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars after reading the many reviews i decided on this watch because i wanted a heart monitor that would work anywhere and for all activities with no chest strap and that fits my small wrist.
Positives: Easy To Use, Good Accuracy

    4.0 Stars - i don't know exactly what the range is, but i clip it to my chest strap and it never has any problems picking up the signal
  2. from www.amazon.com

Mitac Mio Shape Elite Hrm Watch

  1. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars mio watches are excellent because they're so easy to use, compared with using a cumbersome chest strap of other heart rate monitors.
  2. from www.amazon.com
    4.0 Stars got this because chest straps are irritating, and this is a much more convienent substitute.
  3. from www.amazon.com
    3.0 Stars strapless hrms are not able to provide continuous heart rate like those that require a chest strap...
Positives: Easy To Use, Good Accuracy
 
Nike Triax C8 Heart Rate Monitor SM0017 044 Watch
fetching price...
Check Site at Amazon
  1. from www.amazon.com
    4.0 Stars the nike triax c8 has the basic functionality i need, and i can just go to the drugstore for a cr2032 battery when either the monitor or the chest strap need one.
  2. from www.amazon.com
    4.0 Stars both pick up the signal from the chest strap.
Positives: Great Accuracy, Excellent Display
