I've had this product for over a month now and love it. I've had a couple of other Garmin heart rate monitors and this one is by far the best choice for my indoor workouts. The heart rate monitor strap is comfortable and the same as on any other Garmin Heart Rate Monitor product. The watch itself is great! It has 3 customizable screens which can display up to 3 different items on each screen. My personal favorites are : Workout duration, Heart Rate, Calories Burned, Average Heart Rate, and Heart Rate Zone.

As I mentioned above, I mainly use the monitor for my indoor workouts. However, I could use it for any workout in which I wanted to properly calculate my calories burned. During setup the monitor has you input your height, weight, and age to accurately compute your calories burned based upon your heart rate over the course of your workout. It gives you a rolling count so at any point in the workout you can look down and see if you need to step up your game. This has helped me tremendously!

I did not have any problems pairing the device with the monitor strap. The only negative thing I can say about the product is that the instruction manual was not very helpful. However, Garmin has a ton of helpful information on their website. That is where I found out how to customize the 3 screens so that I could see my calorie burn.

Overall, I'm very happy with this product and have recommended both the product and Amazon to several friends!
