3 out of 5 stars Not bad   March 11, 2010
Michael T. Senis (Athens, Greece)
Well, when I was firstly received the product it worked fine but after 1 month the battery was exhausted. After two consecutive battery replacements it proved that the watch was defective and it was immediately replaced by amazon.com. The second watch was working perfectly and it's functionality was superb.


4 out of 5 stars solid HRM   February 22, 2010
D. Mclaughlin (UK)
Bought this as a replacement for another make that proved very unreliable. Went for Polar because of pedigree and not disappointed. Have now trained with a HRM for ~3years and this Polar unit is functioning very well. Good stability of signal, coded to avoid cross talk; large display with simple to use buttons and easy set up. As comfortable a chest strap as I have come across and batteries all seam to be replacable. The RS100 does lack some of the more advanced features of higher models so if you want more features you have to pay more but the underlying technology is still as good as there is out there. Overall can't fault it for the money - very solid unit for the average user & functionality.


5 out of 5 stars Great Heart Rate Monitor   February 17, 2010

I have a Garmin 305 which I use for running and decided to buy this as well I think the chest belt is better belt and the watch is well priced and is ideal if you want basic heart rate info when your running overall a great product.

I have used Polar Heart Rate monitors exclusively for the past 20 years. I have noticed a general decline in their build quality and comfort. With the RS100 I reverted back to a model with a big red master button for ease of use but beyond this button the HRM is over complicated and difficult to use. Polar seem to want to display too much information at once and this makes it difficult to read information on the receiver. I was looking for a simple HRM for fitness purposes but the strap feels flimsy and not built to last and I have had problems with some of the settings. For instance when recording my heart rate I cannot get rid of the beeping noise. This noise is constant whether the sound is ON or OFF.

On the positive side if you want lots of information and your eyesight is good then it may work fo you, they are also compatible with most gym machines and when I have had to email Polar for advice their response has been first class

This is an excellent basic HR monitor. Easy to use, light weight and functional. It has a built in own zone feature that is the easiest option for weight loss and fitness training, I've lost 14lbs in three weeks and feel fresh thanks to a lower intensity training program. HR Training works and this is a great little monitor to start the process.
