    FT7 --- very happy. More accurate than MFP calculations.

    FT70, it's great. I did grow a 6th finger after a few weeks, but I assume that is normal.

    Right?

    Love it! Was using the FT4 for the past few years, but the strap just got eaten by a dog. My new FT7 arrived yesterday and i'll be trying it out for the first time at hockey tonight!

    wow! i guess i'm buying one!!! i wanted to make sure it was worth the money :)

    i'm mainly concerned about when i'm doing weight training because i don't think i have an accurate idea of the calorie burn.

    thanks everyone!!!

    I've been wanting to get one too. I know that the machine calculations at the gym are not accurate. What do you like about the FT4 over the other models?

    I love the FT4 I bought last year. With my information in it, it is much more accurate then the ones on the machines at the gym. I like that because I hated just guessing what I burned. Plus it's a great motivator because I see my heart rate is not within range, and I have to work harder, or I want to burn just a few more calories, so I work harder!

    I love it<3

    I don't know much about the different models. I honestly started looking for one because a weight loss blogger I read is always talking about hers :) I searched for her model and found it has been replaced with the FT4. It should work for what I want!

    the chest strap is great. the watch is horrible tho. very uncomfortable.. so i don't wear it on my wrist, i put it on my bra strap.

    i bought it because amazon had a sale, so it was 30% off.

    I have an FT4. I loved it. For a month or so, it worked perfectly. Now, it drives me nuts because it has a hard time picking up my heart rate, there is a serious lag, it does weird things like jumping to an extremely high/low number, etc. I'm going to try changing the battery, and hope for the best.

    Yes and yes! I have the FT4 and love it. I've had it since March and use it for all my workouts. Even used it on my extra long hikes without any problems.
