I got a HRM that was quite inexspensive but, I don't think it is very accurate. Does anyone have suggestions on what kind of HRM to get that works well yet isn't too pricey?

    I have a New Balance one with a chest strap. I'm really happy with it and it only cost $40 on sale.

    I got a Polar FT4 from Amazon for $70. Since then I've seen them as low as $50 on there.

    I got the Polar Ft4 for around $70. One of my mfp friends & my brother did as well. We all are very happy with our results!

    Get a Polar.. if you just want calorie counting, the FT4 or FT7 should workout fine.

    Thats the problem with inexpensive HRM's.. they are generally not that accurate, and then you wind up spending more to buy a more expensive one.

    I love my Polar and Garmin. Previously I had a Timex but it broke after a year.
