Customer Reviews

I love this HRM! It has helped me to know exactly how hard (or not hard enough) I'm working. I especially love the % of calories from fat calcuation so I can target my heart rate to my goal. Taking the data and downloading it has been a nice feature so I can chart my progress. There is much more to this monitor that I haven't even begun to explore. You can't go wrong with this model.
Great product. I haven't had time to figure out and use all the features yet. I'm mainly tracking heart rate and calories burned right now. It works great so far!
Very happy with the heart rate moniter, calorie counter and exercise review functions. Also happy to be able to use during swim workouts, as the watch and moniter are both water resistant to 30m.
Only disappointment is the lack of a stop watch function.
I received this as a birthday present and it's a jem! I was using a regular old sports watch from Target that basically only timed me. This watch does SO much! It even gives you a fitness program, though I don't think I'll use it as I have my own. It tests your fitness level which is nice too. It keeps your heartrate and gives you a zone to work in, as well as keep count of your calories. The heart rate monitor itself fits nicely around me and is comfortable...so comfortable I forget its there and go to class with it on still! It doesn't hurt and doesn't ever budge, even during sprints. I wouldn't bother with buying the bra that goes with it, as it fits nicely under any other sports bra, at least for me. The only thing is, its doesn't have a stopwatch per say...it has a timer. The navigation through the programs, diary, etc. was tricky at first but you get used to it. I never go to the gym without it!
I recently purchased the F11 to replace my F6 after the batteries gave out. I loved the F6 and it stuck with me for two years before dying. After some research, I decided to upgrade to the F11 and couldn't be happier! Some positives:

- The upgraded WearLink chest strap is incredibly comfortable and I love that the batteries can be changed by the user rather than having to be replaced as the other straps do
- The additional software including the Keeps U Fit program and the ability to test your fitness level are great for frequent exercisers
- I like to be organized, and the F11 keeps track of it all for me: calories, when I've exercised, etc. and even displays a trophy for reaching my goals
- It pushes you: it beeps to remind you to increase your HR and you tell it your goals/fitness level and it formulates a plan: how often to exercise and for how long--couldn't be easier!
- Color. My F6 in "pink coral" faded and yellowed over time, which hasn't happened to the "blue glow"

A few negatives include:

- Bulk. The F11 wrist unit is a bit bulkier than the F6, but I suppose those additional programs have to fit somewhere!

Whether you're an advanced exerciser or stepping up light exercise, the F11 is a great motivational and tracking tool--it's certainly something I can't live without!
