"I would likely get the F11 if I were starting fresh, or a more advanced run/bike trainer otherwise. Don't regret the purchase at all, but have no use of the weight training aspect and it's not customizable in that respect."h8mondays

Ease of use

Can be a chore to set up if you are not "technically inclined". If you are, it's not a problem.

(5)

Quality of Construction

Everything seems solid to me.

(3)

Fit

Chest strap sizing is confusing. Mine is almost too small but does work.

(5)

Comfort

No discomfort at all.

(4)

Adjustability

See comment about strap. Otherwise good.

Durability

6 months in and everything is ok with the exception of what seems to be a connection problem with strap and sensor.

(5)

Value

I'm glad I got it. Has helped me stop overtraining.

(5)

Appearance

Strap is "stealth", watch is good looking.

Performance

Heart monitor is great, the workout side is nearly useless.

Strengths

Good working montior

Weakness

Some connection problems, but not too bad. The weight lifting part is completely useless.
