Consumer reports says that the Polar Ft1 is the best budget HRM. Anyone out there have one and care to share your review? If it works it seems like a good deal for $60.

    I purchase a FT4 polar 1 month ago and I love it!!
  • I've got the FT 7; Bday present from the family, and love it.
    A trainer said make sure what ever you buy can take the impact of a strong workout, and be sweat/water resistent! That has been some great advice!

    I also have the Polar FT4, which is slightly more expensive, but the Polar brand in general seems to be extremely popular and dependable. I love having the HRM because when I enter my activity into the exercise log, the calories come up much higher than what my HRM says I've burned, so this way I know I am not overestimating how many calories I've burned and thus how much I eat.
