A local store had these on sale. I spent about 15 minutes trying to set it as I would use it, including going over the manual. I have a Polar Pacer that is now giving up the ghost. But the FS1 and FS3 will not be the one I buy. It probably does an ok job, but I did not like the interface, thus not a rank of 1.

Strap is really small and barely fits me when buckled in last hole. Strap can not be changed to a longer one. Perfect size for women and children though. Strap can be adjusted to fit almost snugly around my thumb (minor exaggeration). Makes no sense.
Initially setting the device up is nerve racking because you have to press the button an awful lot to get the correct settings and it’s easy to screw it up. Several buttons would have made it easier and quicker to set.
I’m returning this product.

Love it!! Too bad that black was the only color. I’ve seen these watches in Yellow, and they are so unique. I’ve been wearing this watch everywhere (not only during exercise days). Recommend it highly.

This heart rate monitor comes with a 30+ page instruction book! I read it and set it up two months ago and used it for a week while walking on a treadmill. It provides much better readings than my monitor on the treadmill. I then set it aside while on a trip and came back to it a few weeks later. I inadvertently hit the wrong button (only one button) and got into different menus and submenus and got lost. I have not gotten the book out to reset it all. I would like a product that I do not have to read and reread so much. Can you put a nice flow chart of steps for stepup or a organization chart with submenus and subsubmenus so that one doesn’t have to read and reread the instruction book to use it.

I bought this for my dad for Christmas. He loves it. He is at beginner level for working out, but is using this to increase his effort. He calls me regularly to tell me how much he loves this watch.
