Does anyone have one? My husband gave me an early Christmas gift and I was just wondering how accurate it is? I'm probably going to test it out today. My biggest issue is I don't want to cheat myself if it says I'm burning more than I really am. It had pretty good reviews. I just want to know everyones feelings about it. Thanks!!

    I have a polar (mine's an F11) and I LOOOOVE it.... probably one of my best investments this year. Seems very accurate - just make sure you personalize all the settings to YOUR stats.... and keep it updated as you lose weight. Aren't hubby-presents nice? :love: Enjoy!

    F4 is the stripped down model, but for what it does, it's a good quality item. It won't give you things like cardio zone, and you can't transfer numbers to the polar app, and it isn't coded, so if you work out next to another polar product it can receive cross signals, but other than that, it's a good product.
