    There are tons of posts on this topic if you do a search for HRM, but I have a Polar F11 and I love it and find it very consistent.

    It's best (in my opinion) to compare them side by side. I found this site and hope it helps you

    Good luck

    From all the research I've been doing, if you mostly do cardio then anything but the Polar F55 is best.

    If you're primarily a runner or are into bi-athalons and tri-athalons, then you might consider the Timex versions.

    However, if you do strength training and cardio, then the Polar F55 is your best bet. The Polar F55 is approximately $219.00 USD plus shipping, handling and taxes.

    The Polar brand is excellent but it's a little out of my price range- I like my New Balance one- it's a little less pricey but works really well.
