Heart Rate Monitor

Options
I was wondering who uses Heart Rate Monitors, if so what kind. What would be the pros and cons for getting one for better (more accurate) calories burned during work outs?

I am trying to decide if I should get Fitbit or Polar GPS Watch.

Thanks!

    Polar F4. I've had it for about 6 years. no problems and machines at the gym pick up the signal as well.

    Polar F7- I love having a HRM, the calories burn is more accurate and I can watch my heart rate while I work out to see if I need to pick it up or if it's OK to slow down a little. I check my HR all the time durning workouts so I can keep it in "the zone":laugh:
