Does anyone have a preference when it comes to heart rate monitors ? If so what's your favorite and Why?

Polar Ft40- Ft60, Garmin FR60- FR110, Suunto M2-M5-M4 , Mio motiva petite, or Any Brand

They have some really cute ones out there now, But are they worth the $$$?

I have 3 of the watches listed above. I'll tell you which ones later on!! :happy:
I'm a watch junky, I want to try another brand next ( for the look ) I just want it to work properly too! :laugh:

    Garmin Forerunner 305. It does everything you want it to do. Indoors and out.

    (edit: added "forerunner" for clarity)

    I love Polar FT60!!:love: My Husband has the Garmin forerunner 405 in black . He had to have it when they 1st came out and now there half the price. It has lots of great features but the fit is not so great! I tried to workout wearing his watch on day I think I took it off within the 1st 10mins. it wasn't comfortable to me.

    I've tried the ProForm Elite & Polar FT60. The Polar is 100x better and at least $100 more. I'll probably try a Garmin once my Polar stops working.

    After The last post I realized That I own too many HRM's as it is! I really rarely use The Polar Ft60. I only got that one for the color. :bigsmile: I'm more of a cross trainer junky! I'm all over the place when it comes to workouts! So I decided to sell My Polar Ft60 because I've only worn it twice! It's a true trainers watch, it is awesome, but for me the Polar Ft40 works with my style of working out!
