    i had a Mio (or something like that...i honestly can't remember the brand) and it lasted me like, 4 months. i would suggest saving up for a good one, like a Polar. (i have the Polar FT7 and love it). whatever you get, make sure it has a chest strap as it'll be more accurate.

    If it doesn't have a chest strap, its probably not really worth it.

    My husband has one from there, it does have a chest strap and ran about $50, he seems to like it. I am too cheap to buy one.

    Polar FT7 on amazon is for $76 (Free shipping) and includes the chest strap. I just got mine a couple of days back.You can check that.
    Also I saw a great discount on Best Buy for the Polar FT4. You can see if its still there - If I remember correct it was only $ 36 after like 50 % discount.
