Great accuracy - display defective - costly & hassle to return

I purchased two of these early this summer. I found it to be easy to set up and very accurate. Within two weeks the digital readout started to malfunction leaving only a portion of the numbers legible. I paid for the return of it and another was sent to me that has worked well. The 2nd one, received as part of the original order, worked well for two months and then the same thing happened. Neither problem occurred after dropping it or other possible answers. I replaced the battery but the display continued to malfunction. When contacting the company, since it was under warranty, I was told I would need to send it back at my expense, pay another $8 for their costs and they highly recommended that I insure it as well. After realizing the cost I was incurring at this point was almost to the point of what I had paid originally - I decided to give up and try a different brand.

nice, but doesn't count aerobic steps well

I purchased this pedometer in July! It's really easy to use and very lightweight. I like it a lot, but have noted it will fall off your belt if you don't make sure it's on there very tightly. Also, it doesn't count all your aerobic steps, yesterday it didn't count them for the first 3000 steps. But I still like it!

Can't insert battery

The screw for the battery compartment does not seem to be an isolated problem. The screw for the battery cover is an extremely small Phillips head. There is a flat piece of metal provided with a tab on each end. This supposed to be the screwdriver. Ordinarily this might work. But in this case the tab is too long to fit in the cross-slot. Therefore the screw cannot be removed so the battery can be inserted. I have jewelers screwdrivers but doubt they would work because the cross-slots are so small they appear nearly round. Makes it difficult to screw in or out.
It's a shame because the product looks and feels good. But with no battery it is no better than a paper weight, in fact not that good. It's not heavy enough to hold paper down.
There are MANY other ways to secure a battery compartment. Too bad they didn't choose one of them. I have sent this thing back to Amazon. Don't waste your time or money on this product.

Reset Button Removed

Although they haven't changed the model number it appears the device currently shipping no longer has a reset button on the front. That button would reset the device to zero for today, like if you wanted to measure a particular hike.

If you look at the product picture that Amazon has, that is a correct representation. However, if you look at the user pictures, or google for a manual you see that previously the product had four buttons on the front, one of which was that reset button.

I'm guessing some people were pressing that button by mistake and losing part of their day's activities so Omron decided to remove it. That's fine, except now if you want to reset the display to zero you have to stick a pin in the reset hole on the back, and then enter all your data again...time, stride length, weight.

Does this matter. To me it's a pain in the neck, but to most of the people who use the device it may be just fine since what they really want is to measure their total activity for each day, not a particular walk.

(Of course for a single walk, you just look at the display before you leave and subtract that reading when you are done.)

Seems like Omron could have designed a different reset button that was harder to press by accident instead of eliminating it entirely.

Whatever, it's not a huge deal, I just thought people should be aware of this.

Aside from that the device seems fine, and that is covered by lots of other reviews, so I won't repeat them. I just gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because of my own needs. I also think they should have changed the model number when they removed that button.

Very accurate!

This is my 2nd HJ-112. The previous one worked for 2 years w/absolutely no problems. I didn't even have to change the battery for at least 18 months. The only reason I needed a new one is that I dropped the old one once too many times. I'm very pleased with this pedometer and feel like it's the most accurate brand and style I've owned.

heart monitor worth it

I like the price for the monitor and the strap and ease of set up. it picks my heartrate up right away, had no problem with that.

i do have an issue with the buckle. i have to keep putting it back on. when i take the wrist monitor off, the metal buckle keeps popping off and i have to search for it. i will contact them regarding this to replace it. that is the ONLY issue i had with it. easy to read and program.

Omron Heart Rate Monitor

Was looking for a simple heart rate monitor for use on the treadmill and this turned put to be perfect. Also time between ordering online and receiving was very fast. Highly recommend.

Didn't Work ... Don't waste your time ... Buy a different brand

I read the enclosed product booklet that came w/ the Omron heart monitor and I followed all of the set-up instrucions, but the heart monitor just didn't do anything. It registered the time, but it never displayed anything else durring my treadmill workout. I pressed the correct button, the correct number of times and ... no change. I don't need another watch, I need a heart monitor.

Great monitor for its price!

I just want to say that this little monitor works great. It is a good investment for its price. Granted that someone might get a lemon here and there, lemons are a problem when they're not well backed, but Amazon does a great job at backing your purchase, so don't worry. One thing to consider would be the fact that this monitor's transmission is not encoded, so you might get some interference in a very crowded gym with lots of these. Otherwise it's a very good choice for someone that wants an inexpensive(not cheap) Heart Rate Monitor that will warn them about their high and low zones. Give it a try. You'll probably stick with it.

Good value

This is a good product. I was surprised to see that it synced with some of the equipment in my gym. It's easy to use.

1. Attached to Pedometer Clip
2. Prevents Loss

Editorial Review :

Although your pedometer has a belt clip, add a pedometer leash for extra insurance that your pedometer does not hit the ground if it somehow falls off your waistband. The leash attaches to your pedometer at one end, and a metal clip to your waistband ensuring that you never lose your pedometer.

Customer Review :

At last a true safety leash

I love my poedometer. It keeps me motivated but so often fall and get lost while walking running etc. The OEM leashes seem to be always made of plastic and are all to easily broken, this leash with a metal clips promises to perform and help me keep track of my pedometer.

You get what you pay for!!

Don't waste your money! I received this cheaply made strap in poor condition with frayed edges. I can't believe this was shipped to me in this condition. Not worth returning because postage would cost more than this is worth!!! Beware!!!!

Fell apart

Got the pedometer and the leash on the same day. The pedometer (Digi-Walker) works great, but the first time I tried to use the leash, it completely fell apart. The suspender-type clamp broke as soon as I opened it to clamp in on my slacks. It will cost more to ship it back than it did to buy it. JUNK

Great leash

This leash is essential for the pedometer I bought. Without it, I would have lost the pedometer. The price is reasonable and well worth it.


Rating :

Cheaply made - very poor quality

The product that I got is very cheaply made and although it performs the needed "leashing" it's not something that will last. I tossed it in the trash - not worth the bother of dealing with the seller. turns out the pedometer that I purchased came with an excellent leash.

Really helps keep you motivated to move

A group of us at work are walking the U.S. We left atl and made it to Miami already. I like that the pedometer shows total steps as well as the portion that is moderate. It helps me make sure I am getting 30 min per day.

Omron HJ-151 Hip Pedometer

I bought this pedometer for my husband who had a heart attack in January, and was told to take mild exercise. He was going for walks every day, varying his route and taking a guess at how far he had actually walked. I bought this for him as a surprise gift and it works very well. He likes the way he can see how far he has walked (measured in miles), and this gives him an incentive to keep doing just a little bit more every day.

This little gizmo also tells you calories burned, how many steps you have taken and a few other things. It also resets itself at midnight so that it is ready to receive fresh data for the next day. It is quite stylish and not at all clunky. The face displays large numbers, which is also useful. My husband just attaches it to his belt, and off he goes! It has never fallen off or gotten in his way.

He likes it very much and is pleased with the product.

Great product!

Bought this pedometer for our 6 week Italy adventure and I love it. It was fun to track the miles we walked each day as we explored the sights. So easy to use, just clip it to your waistband. I'll continue using it when we get home as it will encourage me to keep walking and racking up those steps!

Click top button to review today and the last seven days of your daily miles/steps. Click the (ll:00) button to convert from steps to miles.

A must have

I should have bought one a year ago, perfect training tool! The quick start guide that comes with it leaves little to be desired when it comes to actual functions...make sure you have a friend who has one. But once you learn how to use it, its easy. Love being able to track the data on Garmin's website, love it! Its a must have for a person doing any training, cant be without it.

Logged about 150 miles so far...

I have logged about 150 miles so far with the device and I must say I really like it. I have not used others, so I have not basis for comparison. I find the GPS works extremely well. I like all of the features and the ease of uploading my results to my computer and/or the Garmin Connect website. It is not the easiest to use, primarily because it can do so many things and there are a ton of options. I have not devoted the time to customizing it for my personal taste, though I plan to do so soon. All in all, I am very happy with my purchase.

Great shop

Before buying this Forerunner I had to run in specific places where I knew the distance. With the GPS I can run everywhere and it will inform me the distance run. The Garmin Connect feature at Internet is also great, you can store your exercises results and monitore your evolution. I fully recommend it.

For what I need this is 5 stars!

I am still learning how to use this watch to it's utmost! On an almost daily basis I use the GPS, heartrate monitor and timer/pace settings. I love the online tracking service through Garmin. This is a great watch. Each week I go online and watch another video on how to use the watch. There is always something new I hadn't thought of yet. I can't wait to try the course upload so I can follow the predetermined coordinates using my watch as my guide. Just what I need to keep me interested in my daily runs.

I am a bigger guy and my only complaint is the watch band is almost too small. I have to use it on the second to last hole on the band so the end keeper is useless. The velcro band is not a better option. I know, that doesn't really have anything to do with the function of the watch. Just thought I would mention it.
