Im getting ready to purchase a heart rate monitor and I want to make sure i make a smart purchase. my other heart rate monitors are awful.

I am seeing this bluetooth heart rate monitor. Which would be better? Thoughts?

    I purchased a Polar model FT4 and I think it was a great investment. It comes with the chest strap and allows you to input gender, height, and weight for an accurate calorie count. You can also specify your "zones" so that the watch will beep at you if you go outside your target zone. I've used it 6 days a week for 5 weeks so far with no issues.

    I have the Polar H7. It's a Bluetooth model that syncs with my iPhone. I use the Digifit app and my workouts sync to MyFitnessPal. Highly recommended.
