Great HRM       rating

I was orignally going to purchase the more expensive Polar F6 heart rate monitor watch but after talking to my mother who has this acumen hrm, i decided not to. I'm so happy I did! This hrm is everything I was looking for at a much cheaper price than the more popular polar watches. I also have very small wrists so this is the perfect size. would def recommend it!
Very pleased, especially for the price       rating

It took me a long time to decide on a heart rate monitor, and after a good deal of opinion research and shopping around, I chose this one. I wanted the basics at a great price, and I have been very, very pleased with the Acumen!

PROS:
*Relatively small band on the watch...in other words, not a gigantic wristband that is made for a man
*My watch came with a replacement wristband and a replacement battery for the monitor
*Fairly easy to use, once I got through the initial set-up process and figured some things out (largely by trial-and-error)
*Readings seem to be quite accurate
*Monitor/strap is quite comfortable

CONS:
*Not the easiest manual in the world to follow (not the worst, but not great). Especially since I am new to heart rate monitors, I found it tricky to get set up and get started.
*Could not find any online support on the company's web site for trouble-shooting when I was in the set-up and intial use process (other than a pdf of the manual, which I was already using!).
Acumen stands behind their product with great customer care       rating

I oredered an acumen heart rate monitor after having one for over fifteen years. The one I had didn't break it literally wore out so I figured it was time to get a new one. I ordered through Amazon and it came from Heart Rate Monitors USA. When it arrived it was dead, I tried everything to wake it up with no success. So, I called Heart Rate Monitors USA and they said to call Acumen directly since it was new and DOA. I called Acumen and spoke with the best customer care representative ever ( if you ever call Acumen's customer service dept. you better hope that Ingrid answers the phone ). She sent me a brand new replacement and it works perfectly. She also covered shipping and returning charges. I'm very happy with my acumen heart rate monitor and the customer service I recieved. If you are looking for a very acurate HRM I would definitely recommend this one. It's amazing how inacurate the HRMs on the machines are, be careful...according to my Acumen HRM I am only burning half the calories indicated by the Eliptical and Treadmill in my gym. So don't be fooled into thinking you've burned 600 calories after 45 minutes on the treadmill you've only burned 300 calories.

I am satisfied with this vendor. The only drawback was I had ordered the heart monitor with a blue face, it came with a black face. Item packaged well,works great and delivery was extra fast. Would order again from this vendor.
