    There will be MANY others who will comment on this one, but I will tell you about my experience. DH and I got Bowflex HRMs for $30 at a Black Friday sale (reg. $80). They had the Polars, and all the other really expensive ones. Ours were one of those "loss leaders" to get you in the door. Worked with us! They came with the chest strap, we can change all the batteries ourselves. DH uses his the most. He runs with it frequently. The only issue he's had with it was when he ran in the REALLY cold weather (frost on his hoodie, beard, etc.). I've checked the pulse against my carotid, and it's right on. Whatever you get, I feel that a chest strap and easily replacable batteries are VERY important! That is, of course, behind all the usual important stuff!:laugh:

    Do a lot of research before you go shopping. We found that many sales people didn't know what they were talking about. Good luck!
