heart rate moniters

Hello all. I'm in the market for an HRM. Any opinions as to quality or which kind to avoid? Thanks in advance.

    I have a Polat FT7 and love it. I had a Timex one that worked fine but I like the bells and whistles of the Polar.

    I have a Polar FT4. Love it... it does what I need it to do, and... I've had no problems with it at all.

    Polar is the best.. FT4, FT7, FT40 and FT60 seem to be the most popular.

    Steer clear of Timex.. Calories burned one those are very overestimated!

    I love my polar ft4. It does everything I want it to as far as tracking HR and calories burned. And it's pink ;)

    Oh, and DONT buy the bowflex brand- got one for xmas and it was just awful. Took me and my boyfriend 2 days to figure out how to get started. The guide seems to be written by a 4 year old.

    Thanks all! Polar seemed like the one to get and I'm glad you all agree.
