This review is from: Kraus KBU14 30-Inch Undermount Single Bowl 16 gauge Kitchen Sink, Stainless Steel (Tools & Home Improvement)
I've been using this sink for about 3 1/2 months now, and I love it. I got it as part of a kitchen renovation I was doing. I paired the sink with the Delta Leland 978-SSSD-DST Single Handle Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet with Soap Dispenser, Stainless and impala black granite counters. My garbage disposal fit this sink without a problem. The granite installers put in the sink and it went in easily.

The seller was ExpressDecor. They did an excellent job. Everything was packaged very well, came quickly, and had all of the accessories, including the bottom grid, strainer, and towel. I haven't used any of these accessories, but I have them in case I want them.

I really wanted a large, single-bowl sink and this fit the bill. Everything I've tried to put in this sink has fit. That's never been true for any other sink I've had. It's deep, which is great with a gooseneck faucet, and it's long so that larger cooking items fit. I love it! I can fill and wash pots and pans, roasting pans, even a pretty big plastic storage crate, and it all has fit without any contortion. Absolutely wonderful!

The quality has been great, it's easy to clean, and better price ($199) than the lower-quality sinks the granite countertop places tried to sell me. (For stainless steel sinks, lower gauge means thicker steel.) When one of the granite places tried to sell me an 18 gauge sink for $250, I told them about this one, and I think he went to buy some. I would definitely recommend this sink.

The filtration system reduces chlorine taste and odor for clean, fresh tasting water.
Quick-connect plumbing fittings make installation a snap and the sanitary quick-change filter cartridge is replaced in only seconds! This system is ideal for use virtually anywhere filtered water is needed, such as with ice makers and refrigerators.
Hundreds of Uses In Your HomeConsider how often you heat water in the kitchen. When you do, you'll realize just how useful the SST-FLTR will be. With 200-degree-Fahrenheit F near-boiling water available at your fingertips, you'll get more done in less time. Instead of waiting for water to heat, you can finish countless kitchen tasks in seconds and relax or get back to your guests.
An InSinkErator hot water dispenser does more than provide filtered hot water for preparing instant foods and beverages, it is also an incredible kitchen appliance. Use it to loosen stubborn jar lids, prepare pasta, warm baby food, clean crusty pans, cream butter, melt chocolate, remove fruit skins for pies, clean cheese graters, warm ice cream scoops, and warm pancake syrup. These are just a few examples of the many uses of an instant hot water dispenser.
Hot Water Instantly, How Does That Work?The SST-FLTR is so easy to use, you won't know how you lived without it. By activating your InSinkErator hot water dispenser's handle (dispensers sold separately), you'll send cool tap water into the tank. This water will displace the tanks' near-boiling water, which will flow out of the hot water dispenser's spout.
Water will be heated anywhere from 160 to 200 degrees, depending on the setting you choose, and it will flow into the tank's expansion chamber where it will be ready for later use. Release the handle, and the SST-FLTR's valve will close automatically, so hot water will stop flowing.
Easy to Install!The InSinkErator SST-FLTR features unique tool-free connections and a dry-start protection system for easy installation. It also features an adjustable temperature gauge, so you can adjust the water to your liking. Once connected to an InSinkErator hot water dispenser faucet (sold separately), this compact 2/3-gallon tank will give you instant access to filtered hot water--up to 60 cups an hour!
An ChoiceHeating water with the SST-FLTR consumes less energy than a 40-watt light bulb that's left on for 24 hours and costs just pennies a day to operate. And because hot water is dispensed on demand, you only use the amount of water you need. This helps reduce water waste.
We Come To You Parts and Labor WarrantyThe SST-FLTR is backed by an exclusive three-year We Come to You In-Home Service Warranty. If you ever have a problem with your instant hot water dispenser system, an authorized InSinkErator service representative will come to your home and fix it, at no charge to you.
Note: Using other manufacturers' components with InSinkErator faucets or tanks voids all InSinkErator warranties.

This review is from: InSinkErator SST-FLTR 2/3-Gallon Stainless Tank and Filtration System (Tools & Home Improvement)
If you think plastic fittings are a good idea around expensive cabinetry and hardwood floors, this is a the product for you. This model now has two "quick-connect" plastic fittings. My last ISE tank had one, the "Y" fitting connecting the copper pipes to the filter line. It failed after 3 years and soaked the cabinets and hardwood floors to the point of serious damage. Initially I thought I would just replace the "Y" connector, but then I realized that the tank itself showed obvious corrosion. I was determined to buy a different brand, but I was unable to locate a model that would work with the expensive Hot/Cold chrome dispenser/filter unit, so I held my nose and bought this model. It leaked immediately from the now plastic "Snap-Connect Fitting"" which is on the tube carrying the hot water to the dispenser. Yes, believe it or not, the connector on the tubing that carries 190? water is a plastic "Quick-Connect"! And when you call ISE, you'll discover their parts are available only through them. They will get them to you in 7-10 days, and you cannot expedite this by agreeing to pay the shipping costs yourself! If you buy this unit, protect your cabinetry and floors with a water alarm or bucket! I wish I had.

This review is from: Waste King 9980 Legend Series 1 HP Continuous Feed Operation Waste Disposer (Tools & Home Improvement)
Easy replacement install for Insinkerator 333 disposal. I'm not a plumber and the install was a snap. Saved myself hundreds of dollars by doing it myself. The 6 year old Insinkerator 333 (4 year warranty) was seizing up and humming. I wasn't sure it would hold out until the Waste King 9980 arrived, but it did. The Waste King shipped out fast and everything I needed for the install was either in the box or reused off the Insinkerator. Install took about 30 minutes. So now we are upgraded from a 1/3 hp to a full 1 hp and have an original purchaser lifetime warranty with the Waste King 9980. Good deal.

This review is from: Delta 9178-SS-DST Leland Single Handle Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet, Stainless (Tools & Home Improvement)
I replaced an old Delta (non-pull down type) with this one. I love this faucet! I've always chosen Delta for all of our finish plumbing hardware and this pull down did not disappoint. There's more room to handle big pots and cookie sheets. The layout keeps water from getting into the internal faucet parts which keeps the hard water deposits from ever forming. My old Delta ended up getting encrusted and it was really unsightly. Problem solved.

Installation was a snap and took maybe two hours. I did encounter one problem. I had to make a trip to the hardware store as the old faucet used 1/2 connectors and this uses 7/16 (don't hold me to the 7/16 size since I can't remember). Not Delta's fault that I didn't check this before installation.

This review is from: KOHLER K-647-VS Simplice Pull-Down Kitchen Sink Faucet, Vibrant Stainless (Tools & Home Improvement)
This is a beautiful faucet, it really adds a touch of elegance to our kitchen. The lofted radius of the spout makes accessing the sink a breeze when it comes to filling pots and scrubbing dishes. Also, the faucet end detaches easily - the head is pressure fit into the stem.

Installation:
Where this faucet really shines is for DIY plumbers. I've installed this faucet twice due to two kitchen remodels. It's very well weighed and uses top of the line threaded brass connections. Install and uninstall is really a breeze. Kohler is a bit pricey but once you switch to their products, it's hard to switch back. This faucet was an excellent investment for our kitchen. Buy it, you won't be disappointed!

Note that I have seen this faucet bundled with the soap dispenser - this version does not include the soap dispenser.

This review is from: KOHLER K-596-VS Simplice Single-Hole Pull-down Kitchen Faucet, Vibrant Stainless (Tools & Home Improvement)
We recently had installed new 3cm Granite counter tops and wanted only a single penetrating hole to maximize the gorgeous view of the new countertops. We looked at all of the other major brand, single handle, integrated sprayer kitchen faucets on the market, but couldn't find Any that we liked. All were either too bulky, too shiny, large handled, tulip shaped bases with awkward pull out sprayers that didn't feel right or seem to work very well.

Then we discovered the Kohler K-596-VS, an ergonomic all-in-one faucet of beauty that takes Absolutely Nothing away from our stunning granite real-estate from Brazil, but adds a simplistic yet elegant compliment to our remodeled kitchen. The 10 minute installation plus the solid quality and function of its design only enhances the great choice we made. The spray\stream\stop features and ease of the swivel head work flawlessly, as does the diminutive but accurate function of the valve assembly. The brushed Vibrant Stainless finish cleans very easily and matches perfectly with our stainless appliances throughout the kitchen. All of this with a Lifetime Warranty!!

Great Looks, Great Function, Great Product...Thanks Kohler! ;)

This review is from: KOHLER K-3489-47 Cimarron Comfort Height Elongated Toilet, Almond (Tools & Home Improvement)
I recently had a Kohler Cimmaron Comfort-Height Elongated toilet installed in my house, and so far we're very pleased with it.

Likes:

* Comfort height seating: the extra height is more forgiving to people with back and/or knees difficulties.

* Class 5 Flush & Wide clog-free outlet: say goodbye to the plunger because chances are high you won't need it anymore.

* Quiet: It operates quietly (although it does tend to 'chug' a bit at the end of a flush), and it has a quiet slow-close lid, which prevents noisy lid clatter.

* One piece construction makes cleaning a cinch (fewer crevices), and gives the toilet an elegant appearance.

* Quick-release seat: no more fiddling underneath the toilet in order to remove the seat ... just lift the catch, squeeze the release, and off comes the seat for easy cleaning or replacement.

Minor Nits:

* The in-sloped seat is a very slightly uncomfortable, but tolerable.

* I wish the toilet flush volume were a bit more adjustable. It comes set for 1.6, but can only be changed to 1.4. It'd be nice if you could increase it to, say, 1.8 or 2.0 if you wanted to. The toilet flushes fast and quietly, but it seems to cry out for just a slightly larger volume of flush water.

Recommended. A tad pricey, but worth it. Also, as with all all merchandise, it pays to shop around ... I got mine for under $400.

Suunto t6d Professional Wristop Training Computer

Product Description


,exerpeutic 300sr foldable recumbent bike,sunny health fitness pro indoor cycling bike,body rider fan bike,schwinn 240 recumbent exercise bike,7 In an era of seamless technological integration, it seems a little silly that we can't track our athletic performances and transfer them straight to our computers for deeper analysis. Wait…did we say "can't"? What we meant is, "can". Thanks to Suunto's t6d Heart Rate Monitor, you can now find out just what your performance is--and how it's changed over time. Simply strap on this comfortable wristwatch and get a detailed analysis of seven physiological parameters that up until recently were so advanced only spots labs were able to calculate them. You'll learn about every aspect of your training, giving you the ability to make adjustments to improve immediately. Not only that, but a measurement of your Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption level will let you know if you're getting the most out of every workout. This is all especially cool if you get your readouts on your tablet while sitting at a hip coffeeshop after hitting a PR.   Calculates seven different physiological parameters Instant results available via Movescout Includes Suunto Dual Comfort Belt to calculate real-time heart rate and calorie consumption    
This review is from: Suunto t6d Heart Rate Monitor (Misc.)
I've had a continuing series of Suunto watches and am a huge fan. I have exercise data from the T6 series going back to 2003. The ability of the watch to collect, display and graph many parameters is incomparable. Unfortunately Suunto uses an obsolete communications protocol called ANT. If you are just using Suunto devices, it is not an issue. However there are an increasing number of excellent devices that many serious athletes and manna-bes like me want to use such as power meters, ski ergs, GPSs, rowers, etc that use ANT+ that allow devices from different vendors to interoperate. Suunto joined the ANT+ consortium in Mar 2010 but has not produced a product that is ANT+ compatible. I had hopes that they would product an ANT+ product this year but the recently released Quest, a high-end sports watch, is not ANT+ compliant. This doesn't bode well for Suunto's interest in becoming interoperable. I'll continue to use my T6d while running but I've moved to Garmin for cycling and hiking. When the T6d dies I will move to Polar or its ilk.

Polar G1 GPS Speed

Product Description


,schwinn airdyne ad4 upright exercise bike,nautilus r514 recumbent exercise bike,stamina 4825 magnetic resistance recumbent bike,schwinn a20 recumbent exercise bike,prom 290 spx indoor cycle trainer Product Description Track your speed and distance while wearing a Polar training computer with the Polar G1 GPS sensor. A terrific alternative to the Polar S1 foot pod, the G1 is compatible with the Polar FT60 and FT80 wrist-top training computers. Once you're wearing the G1, the sensor employs SIRF StarIII GPS technology to measure speed and distance for sports that don't exceed 18.3 miles per hour, such as running, kayaking, cross-country skiing, or recreational inline skating. As the G1 compiles the data, your training computer will do the rest, putting you through the paces on your workout routine.
The easy-to-use, water-resistant sensor calculates its position by measuring the distance between itself and three or more GPS satellites. Note that GPS positioning requires satellite visibility to work, thus it will only work reliably outdoors, and not in valleys between tall trees and buildings. GPS signals also rely on radio frequencies (RF), and therefore won't go through metal or water. The G1, which works with AA batteries, offers a battery life of up to 10 hours in warm conditions or up to 15 hours in low-power mode. The sensor also weighs a lightweight 2.82 ounces.
About Polar The first EKG accurate wireless heart rate monitor was invented by Polar back in 1977 as a training tool for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski Team. The concept of "intensity training" by heart rate swept the athletic world in the eighties. By the 1990s, individuals were looking to heart rate monitors not only for performance training needs, but also for achieving everyday fitness goals. Today, the same concept of heart rate training is being used by world-class athletes as well as everyday people trying to lose weight. Polar is the leading brand among consumers, coaches, and personal trainers worldwide and the company is committed to not only producing the best products, but also being the leading educator on the benefits of heart rate based exercise.

This review is from: Polar G1 GPS Speed and Distance Sensor for FT60 / FT80 (Sports)
About 6 months ago, I purchased the G1 GPS and a Polar FT80. The GPS device works well and is easy to use. The only negative is the clip that attaches it to you is a little weak and not able to adapt to many unusual situation. However, I have been impressed with how well the device picks up signals. I have clipped the device to my hockey jersey and obtained the distance I have skated and the maximum speeds indoors while playing ice hockey. Often I use the device while skiing and I have used it while kayaking. It seems that for this price more could be offered. For example, the gps will not show you where you have been. Once, the clip broke that holds the device to your clothing. Polar promptly replaced the clip at no charge. To sum it up, the device does everything that it is advertised to do both well and simply. It has been a big benefit to my training.

This review is from: FINIS Swimsense Performance Monitor (Sports)
This devise does not work correctly way too often. I did not believe some of the reviews but they were correct it misses a lot of laps (or sometimes splits the lap into two) thus making the usage close to impossible. I tried to use it for my training sessions (like 4*50 with 15 sec rest) and it added 25 yards to 2 out of 4 repetitions. The idea is interesting, interface is good and web site is nice but the fact that it is so inaccurate breaks everything for me. I sent mine back to Amazon for a refund.

This review is from: Suunto M5 Men's Heart Rate Monitor and Fitness Training Watch (Black) (Sports)
This is my first HRM, finally bought after researched for a few months and asked many opinion leaders. I bought this along with a Sigma PC9 for my mom who doesn't need a coded transmitter. I have used this for 6 weeks now, with 3-5 uses a week. I initially wanted to get M2 because of the beautiful look, but as it doesn't support foot pod, I had settled for this one. I bought the M5 running pack that comes with the foot pod and the Movestick. It was setup and paired with the chest strap and the pod pretty easy and quickly. No issues to get reading from both the chest strap and the pod in all the workouts I've done. In terms of accuracy, it spots on --> benchmarked with manual pulse reading.

With the help of this, I get motivated and in that last 6 weeks I turned from a person who have never ran a single bit, to be able to run 5km now.

There are cons of course, which I did not realize until now. But let me go through the pros first.

PROS:
1. The transmissions are coded - that's why it is more expensive than many cheaper HRM. This allows me to be able to train together with my friends who are using HRMs as well.

2. Very simple to use - Just 3 buttons to operate. No lots of questions (unlike my mom's Sigma PC9, where you have to answer 3-4 questions before you can stop/start).

3. Very large 'font size', easy to read when you are running. Get the white face, BTW, it is very clear.

4. Has a backlight, easier for those who run in the evening or very early of the day.

5. Has a personal training (or virtual trainer) that motivates you to complete the plan for each day. It tells you to up or down the effort, with audible beeps.

6. Fitness Test is available (using Rockport Fitness Walking Test). Ya, I know it is a painful way to test your fitness, but at least it is available, and is useful for a beginner like me.

7. Movescount connection. It allows you to download the workout data into the movescount where you can review and save all your workout data. Another reviewer felt that this site is a complete waste of time/effort/cost, but it is very useful for me. For someone who cannot workout alone (I lose motivation/interest if I were to do this alone), I need this to keep connected to my gang of runner friends. We compare data, we motivate each other, and we compete with each other! Another kind of motivations. :)

8. Very comfortable chest strap. My mom's Sigma PC9 could not pick up signal from her strap but could pick up my Suunto's when my mom swapped with mine. It seems that the comfortable strap can wrap around the body's curve better that allows better contact with skin, unlike those other plastic hard front piece in other brands. If you have a large upper tummy (like my mom), this would still hug around your chest comfortably and snuggly. I don't have to tighten the strap too much. I actually let it loosely wrap around my chest, and it stays all the time, probably the silicon material holds on well to my skin. No need to feel suffocated by tight straps if you use Suunto's, and in fact I always forget that I still have my strap (we usually go for breakfast right after the workout and I don't feel anything foreign there!)

9. Battery is user-changeable. This is very important for me, as it is so inconvenient to send to the manufacturer for a change. Love this feature!

10. It is not too bulky as I had thought of a HRM. My wrist is only 5.5" in diameter, and the women wrist band fits my wrists perfectly. It is also very comfortable to put on wrist too.

CONS
1. I know that it doesn't come with all those VO2 Max, Training Effect, EPOC measures (those are available in t-series), but I did not know that it doesn't even show % in each workout range. Even my mom's very cheap Sigma PC9 (less than $40) has these features. M5 only tells you the average HR, and max HR. It would be good if I can also know what % (or min) of my workout was in e.g. 120-140bmp, 140-160bpm, etc. This has bothered me a lot.

2. Foot pod cannot be calibrated. I had the impression when they don't allow calibration, the accuracy should be quite good, but I was wrong. When I ran with my friend, we started together, ended together, for 1,600m (about 1 mile), I was short of 200m from her reading! We use the same model. I was told that in low speed the accuracy is quite far off, but the accuracy increase when speed increased.

3. It does not show Speed and Time/Timer together on screen. It shows 2 readings at the same time, with lots of combinations that you can toggle with the middle button. But they just don't have this combination of Speed and Time/Timer. I need this because sometimes I wanted to keep to a pace when I'm on interval training for a period of time (e.g. 4x4min). I need to know both the pace and the duration, at the same time.

CONCLUSION
All in all, this is a very good basic function HRM for a beginner like me. But if you are looking for more features, go for the t-series. t6d is a good one. That would be my next HRM if I have the budget to upgrade. :)

This review is from: Timex Ironman Race Trainer Heart Rate Monitor Watch, Black/Grey (Sports)
I both agree and disagree with some of the reviews for this product. Granted, I have only had it a week, so I can't speak about durability/quality. I also haven't used the interval or recovery modes (and may never).

First, it is comfortable! I forget that I am even wearing the chest strap and my wrist is light as air. I am a large framed female with a normal BMI and as another reviewer stated, I can wear it under my sports bra. It is also a nice looking watch. The HRM seems very accurate and that part wasn't difficult to set up if you know your numbers. Although I have to say, plan to spend a little time with the manual. While somewhat intuitive, you still need to familiarize yourself with the functions of the buttons in each mode. The only down side is the calorie counter. I don't know how these devices usually calculate this, but this one, as well the rest, always give reading higher than what is actual. But that is not a flaw of this HRM, but of all of them in general.

This is a great product! The only way they could make it better is to design it to be as accurate without needing the chest strap. Then I would wear it all the time!

The affordable GO2 line provides reliable oxygen saturation and heart rate values without compromising accuracy. The GO2 Achieve is for anyone who is interested in knowing their oxygen saturation and heart rate. Applications would be for use during exercise or daily activities, during air travel for the passenger or pilot, and for extreme sports such as mountain climbing. GO2 Achieve is not a medical device and does not require a prescription from your medical professional. Comes with 2 year warranty, 1 AAA battery and users guide.
This review is from: Nonin GO2 Achieve Fingertip Pulse Oximeter - Blue (Health and Beauty)
I bought the Nonin GO2 for my mom who uses oxygen at night and has had blood oxygen saturation problems lately. Her level is normally 97-98 but sometimes drops to 90. I wanted her to know when it got low. I researched several brands of home meters. Nonin, I learned, makes professional models costing hundreds. But the GO2 uses the same technology in the home use meter. The difference is that the GO2 is not "certified" thought technically its just as accurate and reliable as a professional unit. The meter is very easy to use. It automatically turns on when placed on the finger. It takes 5-10 seconds to give O2 level and pulse rate. Then it shuts off automatically once removed. A single AAA battery lasts about 4000 readings. It has a great warranty (2 years) and seems very accurate. Highly recommended product!

This review is from: Polar RS300X Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Orange) (Sports)
I do like the watch when it works. I have only had it one month and it already seems to have problems picking up my heart rate. At times it says my heart rate is below 40, other times it says it is above 230, and at times it cannot even find the signal.

I like that it has the different training zones as well as stores up to 14 or so workouts.

Again, It is a good watch when it works.

Polar FT80 Heart Rate Monitor Watch

Product Description


,timex ironman mens road trainer heart rate monitor ,polar ft60 womens heart rate monitor ,polar ft4f heart rate monitor ,polar ft7 heart rate monitor,stamina conversion ii recumbent bike If there's one word to describe people who train seriously for athletics, it's dedication. And if there's one heart rate monitor that's dedicated to helping you achieve maximum workout efficiency, it's the Polar FT80. The FT80 starts by checking your daily condition, and then guiding you to the ideal training intensity for your age and fitness level. Knowing your heart rate not only helps you reach your personal fitness goal, but also improves your physical condition in general, as it's vitally important to train at the appropriate intensity level. If you exercise too hard, you may quit before you reach the real benefit, but if you work out too leisurely, you'll struggle to lose weight at all. The FT80 helps overcome these problems by encouraging you to map out a complete fitness routine.
The FT80's intelligent training computer also helps you work toward achieving your exercise goals in other ways. For example, the watch offers a Polar Star personalized training program that adapts to your workout habits. By giving you weekly training targets and providing constant feedback, the watch guides you without being too strict, helping you reach your goals more efficiently. The watch also displays heart rate info in several ways, including as a percentage of your maximum heart rate, as beats per minute, and within a graphical target zone indicator. And should your heart rate exceed or dip below your target zone, the FT80 will sound an alarm that helps you return to form.
Users will also love the variety of proprietary Polar functions, including ZonePointer, Polar Strength Training, and Polar OwnCal modes. The ZonePointer is an audible and visual feature on the display of your FT80 that shows you where your current heart rate sits within your target heart rate zone. The Polar Strength Training mode, meanwhile, helps you optimize your strength training by reading your heart rate and informing you when your body is ready for the next set--an ideal way to optimize your weight training. Finally, the Polar OwnCal mode shows your energy expenditure during one exercise session, as well as your accumulated kilocalories during several exercise sessions. You can also set daily and weekly exercise goals in terms of calorie expenditure, helping you achieve both short-term and long-term goals.
Other watch features include a built-in fitness test that measures your aerobic fitness at rest in just five minutes; a ZoneLock mode that lets you activate a target zone in the midst of training with the press of a button; a Polar OwnZone mode that provides a customized target zone for individual exercise sessions; an OwnCode mode that prevents crosstalk from other heart rate monitors nearby; a recording mode that tracks your average and maximum heart rate, calorie expenditure, distance, and total exercise time, and then puts it in an exercise file (with 100 total files); water resistance to 50 meters; a 12/24-hour clock with a day/week indicator; a built-in backlight; an alarm with a snooze; a low battery indicator; and a Polar FlowLink connection for transferring data between the FT80 and a computer. Sporting an attractive black housing, the watch carries a two-year warranty.
Manufacturer's Warranty The original purchaser of this heart rate monitor is backed by a limited warranty that states that this product that the product will be free from defects in material or workmanship for two years from the date of purchase.

This review is from: Polar FT80 Heart Rate Monitor (Sports)
I just received this watch and have only worked out with it once, but so far, it is great. I did a bit of research on this watch, and the biggest complaint seemed to be the screen. A lot of people were complaining that theirs was too dim and they couldn't see it inside. I had absolutely no issues with it; perhaps it could have been a little brighter, but at no point during my jog did it require more than a quick glance.

The reason I got this watch was the strength training aspect. The idea of having something monitor your rest period really intrigued me. I have to say, it seemed to work as well as one could hope. You can create workout programs through Polar's website, although the site is still clearly geared toward runners. They have a very limited number of pre-set lifting exercises; however, it is extremely easy to create your own on the site.

The watch works extremely well while using it for cardio. It works with the cardio equipment at my gym. It also breaks your rate into three different zones and makes it very easy to see which zone you are in.

Synching the watch with the computer is very easy. It comes with a USB device that allows you to synch easily.

The watch fits really well, although I have a slight issue getting the watch off due to the clasp. It's not a big deal, but I do feel that could have been designed better. The watch looks good enough to wear in casual situations.

I'll try to update this review as I use it more; I just wanted to get a review up here. I was trying to gather as much information on this watch as I could, and I was struggling to find any reviews on the web. So far, I'd recommend getting this watch if you want to use it for cross training. You may want to see it in person if you are concerned about the screen's brightness.

  • Basic RS300X -- black and orange
  • RS300X SD with S1 foot pod for real-time pace/distance -- black and orange
  • RS300X G1 with G1 GPS Sensor for cross-trainers -- black and orange
The RS300X G1 enables athletes to train at the right intensity and improve their performance through core metrics such as heart rate, speed, distance, pace, and calorie burn. Advanced features include Polar's exclusive OwnZone feature for individualized zone training by heart rate or pace, a fitness test, and auto lap splits, which display average heart rate, pace and distance per lap. Athletes can easily review up to 16 past workout files to check their progress and ensure they're staying on track with their fitness or training plan.
Features include:
  • Heart rate displayed as percentage of maximum heart rate, BPM, and average heart rate of total exercise
  • Tracks your latest 16 training sessions and your last 16 weeks of training
  • Visual and audible alarm in target zones: Informs you every time your heart rate and/or speed/pace exceeds the upper limit or falls below the lower limit of your target zone during a training session.
  • Polar OwnIndex Fitness Test calculates aerobic fitness (comparable to maximal oxygen uptake, VO2max) providing a reference to base training intensity and measure improvement.
  • Polar OwnCal: Shows your energy expenditure during one exercise session as well as your accumulated kilocalories during several exercise sessions. Because the OwnCal tracks both the energy expenditure during one exercise session and the accumulated kilocalories during a longer time e.g. one week, it helps in achieving both short term and long term goals.
  • Time in Target Zone feature calculates the amount of total training time spent in your personal target zone. You can use this feature together with the Total Exercise Time to determine the effectiveness of your training program.

About Polar The first EKG accurate wireless heart rate monitor was invented by Polar back in 1977 as a training tool for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski Team. The concept of "intensity training" by heart rate swept the athletic world in the eighties. By the 1990s, individuals were looking to heart rate monitors not only for performance training needs, but also for achieving everyday fitness goals. Today, the same concept of heart rate training is being used by world-class athletes as well as everyday people trying to lose weight. Polar is the leading brand among consumers, coaches, and personal trainers worldwide and the company is committed to not only producing the best products, but also being the leading educator on the benefits of heart rate based exercise.

The GPS pod works on and off and eats batteries. I have found the fastest way for it to aquire satellite lock is to take the battery out at the end of each run. If you simply turn the device off it doesn't recieve the GPS signal the next time you need it. As for the HRM and watch it is what you would expect from Polar but the start/stop button is cheap and I can see that failing first. The averages for speed vary greatly also but for the quick check during a long run it works fine and coupled with the HRM it will keep you honest

Enter the Timex Ironman Race Trainer digital heart rate monitor watch, which gives elite athletes the performance tools they need to succeed. The Race Trainer's primary function is to monitor your average heart rate and tell you whether to boost your intensity or take it slower. However, the watch also offers several more sophisticated tools, including a 10-workout memory, a 50-lap chronograph that calculates your average heart rate per lap, and five interval timers with individual heart rate target zones. The tools combine to make serious training seriously easy. And thanks to the Race Trainer's wireless Data Xchanger USB, you can customize your HRM and watch settings, upload workouts directly to your PC, or use training and nutrition software powered by TrainingPeaks.

This review is from: Timex Ironman Men's Race Trainer Heart Rate Monitor Watch, Black/Grey, Full Size (Sports)
This is my first HRM watch, so I cannot compare it to any other similar products out there except for what I've researched on-line and seen in stores. That being said, it does everything you might expect from a device of this nature (perhaps a bit more) and it does it extremely well. I've been using it for about 3 months now, exclusively for spinning.

Since you can easily read what the watch offers to do, I'll try to limit this review on how well it has worked for me during workouts and what you could expect from its use.

THE WATCH ITSELF: To begin with, it's a great digital watch with basic features like multiple alarms, indiglo backlight and a chronograph. The display is quite large, showing the time and date very clearly, but the watch itself is compact and surprisingly light in weight. I find the large display to be very practical during exercise because you can easily see both your heart rate and/or time of day and/or time left in your workout and/or elapsed time, or any combination of any two of them, depending on how you set it up (easily changed with the push of a button).

The wristband's web-like design makes it very comfortable to wear when you're working up a sweat but, as someone here mentioned before, if the band breaks for any reason then you're out of luck because it's integrated directly into the time piece. In the watch's defense, I believe you would really have to give it a lot of use, and maybe some abuse, for it to break. The wristband (as well as the watch itself) seems to be of good quality; it isn't weak, cheap or flimsy at all.

THE HEART RATE MONITOR: As for the heart rate monitor feature, it is great. A little bit of water on the back of the heart rate digital sensor and it's good to go. Set-up is very simple, even if you don't read the instruction manual, although some people might find it necessary to read for certain features like programming intervals. Changing the battery on the sensor is extremely simple and inexpensive (it uses one of those flat circular batteries found in watches).

The sensor picks up the heart rate very well and I haven't had it lose any data during a workout since I began using it. Now, there was one exception, I did lose data but it is something more attributable to human body physiognomy than the watch. Since no one's body is perfectly flat (especially in the bottom chest area where the sensor goes), depending on the contours of your body, finding that sweet spot where the sensor will optimally detect your heart beat could be a little tricky in the beginning but once you do it works fine.

Personally, I found that "slouching" while spinning resulted in data loss because the sensor would not be touching my body completely, but this would be my fault for two reasons: first, I can easily maintain a more proper posture during my workout and, second, I have a small indentation where my chest muscles meet the top part of my ribcage (if you workout with weights a lot, you probably know what I'm talking about), so because of the shape of my body it's really up to me to make sure I don't remain hunched over... at least until they come up with a sensor that isn't completely flat, perhaps a bit more curved or "ergonomic" in its design. Like I said, it's an individual thing, but perhaps something to consider depending on the activity you'll use it for. Besides, you would expect this from any heart rate sensor (they're all basically the same in construct from what I've seen in stores researching different HRM watches).

The watch can be programmed to sound an alert when you're out of your heart rate zone; an audible alarm easily switched on or off during your workout (it even beeps differently depending on if you need to pick up the pace or slow down, so you don't have to look at the watch to know what it's trying to tell you). There are 6 heart rate zones to choose from (which you can also change at any moment during your workout) -viewed as percentage or beats per minute, depending on what you select-. All of the information is stored and viewable afterwards, including calories burned.

It also has a recovery feature that lets you measure your heart rate while you cool down. You can choose 30 seconds, 1, 2, 5 or 10 minutes and it starts automatically when you finish your workout (automatically only when using the chronograph. It doesn't start automatically when using the count-down timer or the interval timer - more on that later).

My favorite feature is the interval timer (and the primary reason I bought this model). It's also one of the reasons I took away one star in this review. Don't get me wrong, the interval timer is amazing! You can program the watch to measure different heart rate zones during specific times or laps that you choose and it can be programmed to repeat your selection many times over. Here's my personal issue with this feature: I don't understand why they didn't design it to only repeat the intervals you tell it to? The watch actually asks you how many times you want to repeat each interval but it doesn't do it... it repeats the whole workout from the first interval.

Let me explain: for example, I programmed interval one to keep me in "Heart Rate Zone 1 (50% - 60% of my heart rate)" for ten minutes. It asked me how many times I want it to repeat this interval, I chose once. That's my warm-up time.

After that, I programmed interval two to measure me for "Heart Rate Zone 2 (60% - 70%)" for two minutes. It asked me how many times I want it to repeat this interval, I chose five times. This is my regular workout time in between sprints.

I programmed interval three for "Heart Rate Zone 3 (70% - 80%)" for one minute. It asked me how many times I want it to repeat this interval and I chose five times because I want it to coincide with the two minutes chosen earlier. This is my sprint time.

You would think the watch would begin with a 10 minute interval once, do 2 minute by 1 minute intervals five times over and that's it, but no, it includes the first 10 minute interval five times as well... so what you get is 10 minutes (zone 1), 2 minutes (zone 2), 1 minute (zone 3), 10 minutes again, 2 minutes, 1 minute, 10 minutes again, etc. until the five intervals are up. Granted, the user manual specifically says on page 28 that "The repeat setting applies to the entire group of settings; you cannot have the Interval Timer repeat twice for INT 1 and only once for INT 2", but I didn't read the instruction manual until I had it in my hands after buying the watch.

NOTE* Another reason I took off that one star from this review is that in "INTERVAL" or "TIMER" (it's a count down timer) mode, you have to manually go to the "RECOVERY" screen, have it already set-up, reset and ready before pressing "START" for the cool down to begin. It does not begin automatically after your programmed workout has finished. If the watch knows you're finished (that's why you programmed the watch - to workout during a specified time), why not begin the recovery automatically once the programmed workout is over?

No big deal either way, just an observation of something I believe can be easily fixed or included by the people who design those features. Hopefully TIMEX will take note.

PRICE: From every other watch I researched before buying this one, not one of them came close to having as many features or had such a clear and practical display. Any that do offer as many functions usually have some but not all and if they do, they are way more expensive.

CONCLUSION: The minor issues mentioned are in no way a deal breaker and I haven't had any problems with the watch whatsoever, it has worked fine since day one (no buttons sticking or being easily pressed by accident, the heart rate sensor worked well out of the box, etc.). I would highly recommend this watch to anyone and for the price you can't go wrong. I bought this model for myself and the smaller mid-size (female) version as a gift. I've been told that the other watch is working great as well.
