SO.. this weekend when I went to Best Buy to buy some Wii fitness games, I also took a gander at the HRM they had there. I have been looking for a good one, still unsure of what to buy. I was also intrigued by fitbit, but unfortunately fitbit is not a HRM for work outs.. otherwise..I would have bought that right on the spot!

Well, I saw the Biggest Loser Slimcoach. I remember the last season of Biggest Loser everyone was using those on the show and downloading all their information onto a database. Well, I was reading on the back of the box and really, to be honest.. I wanted to buy it right then and there.. BUT.. I felt foolish doing so without getting opinions and doing a little research beforehand..


With all of that said, Does anyone own one of these?? What do you think? bad or good investment?! ANY opinions would be great!!! :flowerforyou:

    I don't own one. Haven't even heard of it. I have a Timex Personal Trainer HRM. In fact I have two..one for water aerobics. It is only $40.38 on Amazon.com. Easy to program and easy to use. But you have to get what is right for you. Good luck in your search!

    I haven't heard anything about that one but I have a Polar F4 and love it.... It's easy to use and has just what I need. I thought about spending more and getting the F7 but when it came down to it... I didn't need the extras that it had.

    I bought a slimcoach and tried to activate it ,could not do it any where. I called Biggest loser and they said to call the people who make it, i did and they said call biggest loser .So i still have it and still cant use it. Don't buy this product get a fit bit instead.I love it.
