Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works well for monitoring heart rate and displaying calories burned. However we wish you could display the heart rate vs. time on a chart like you can with other Polar monitor watches

I had a Timex Ironman with HRM that only worked for about a week, then stopped finding my heart rate. Returned to store - not Best Buy fwiw (I called Timex but they were no help at all - wanted me to send it in under warranty and pay shipping even though it was practically brand new). So, I came across this at Best Buy and am very glad I purchased it. The price was good too - same as Amazon. Accurate heart rate and calorie counter, and always finds heart rate right away. From now on it's Polar for me.

Accurate heart rate,, the watch sits comfortably on my wrist. Easy to operate and I highly recommend this item to anyone who is looking for a heart rate Monitor.

This watch is easy to set up and use. Helps me push and make sure I'm in my heart rate zone even on those lazy days. Often people will ask if the calorie burner count is accurate? I say yes,bc it bases it off the personal info you entered at the time of set up. Definitely would recommend to anyone who enjoys working out and wants to keep track of their workout.

I love this monitor. It is easy to use while training. It is also easy to get end of workout numbers (AvgHR, MxHR, Cals; Fat burn, and fitness times).

The watch is good and does what it said it can. I have used this and my trainer can sync it with his and monitor my heart rate and review the workout accordingly. I can also review my daily workouts and calories and really helped me to go about my day in a more responsible manner. There are other more sleek device but I have not used them , but for the price I like the FT7.

Looking for a reliable and reasonably priced HR monitor. Everything I wanted it to be: easy to use, lots of info gathered, and great price point.

I enjoy this heart rate monitor, I like that it shows accurately how many calories you burn, since I work out a lot and am trying to loose weight this gadget definitely helps. It is also easy to use.

I purchase a Fitbit thinking it was a good choice for knowing how much calories i was burning during excersises, but when i use the polar its much more accurate that the fitbit. totally recommended for gym lovers.

After much research and a friend showing me her Polar FT-7 Heart rate monitor, I decided to buy it. The chest sensor is easy to adjust and put on, and is very comfortable. So far I have not had to even wet it to get a reading. An extra bonus is that the Life Cycle elliptical machines I use are Polar ready and pick up the reading on their screens so I don't even have to look at the watch. In fact, I don't have to wear the watch at all unless I want to keep a record. Fantastic!

was a gift for my boyfriend and he absolutely loved it! easy to use and the heart monitor isn't uncomfotable at all!

I love this watch. I did a lot of research before buying. I've had it for two months now and I use it EVERY time I work out. The strap/monitor are comfortable. I like that it tells me the amount of time, calories burned etc as I'm working out. It motivates you to keep going and shows you that even a little effort goes a long way! It stores up to 99 workouts so you don't have to worry about recording right away. If you want a HR monitor give it a try!

the Polar heart rate monitor is so easy to use. It has helped me monitor and improve my workouts.

Really enjoy this watch that shows me my heart rate durong workouts and accurate calories burned

Great product for individuals who are looking for device that would accurately measure calories burned in a workout. Easy to use and price is good for a brand name like Polar. Polar website also offers option to log and track progress, which is a motivator for individuals who are into stats.

Overall this does what I need it to do and that is giving me accurate heart rate reading. It also has the nice feature where it tells you calories burned, and the amount of time you were in fat burning zone or fitness increasing zone. Seems like a durably product to me as well.

I love this. I had one before. I can even swim with it. Easy to program and use.

This was my first heart rate monitor and couldn't be more pleased. It was easy to use from the moment I took it out of the packaging. The strap is comfortable and I don't notice it while I am working out. The wrist band is a bit bulky but doesn't interfere. Would recommend this model to my friends.

The polar heart monitor is the easiest heart monitor to use and transmits data to treadmills and other gym equipment so that you don't have to look at the wristband when working out. The directions for the initial setup could be clearer as there are 4 buttons on the watch that control the display. A little time and trial and error got everything set up perfectly.

Got this as a Mother's Day gift and I absolutely love it! Everything that I expected plus. Because I work out by myself mostly, this helps me push myself harder because of the calorie count meter. I couldn't have asked for a better gift/workout buddy :)
