(5)

Ease of installation

Very easy to setup.

(5)

Ease of use

Setup it up the day I received it, used it the next day. Worked like charm.

(5)

Quality of Construction

No complaints, but I've only had it for a few days. Went running with it twice and did a twenty mile bike ride.

(5)

Fit

I have small wrists, but it comes with a larger strap.

(5)

Comfort

It's a larger unit, compared to HR monitors, but I don't "feel" any difference when wearing it.

(5)

Durability

Time will tell, but I do plan on buying a case to protect it.

(5)

Value

If you cycle or run, you should consider getting one, especially if you like data.

(5)

Appearance

Very appealing and comfortable to wear.

(5)

Performance

To date, I'm very happy with the investment.

Strengths

Knowing where you have been, the ability to upload to this site is a big plus. I like how it breaks down my HR zones.

Weakness

I'd hate to lose it, but this of course is no reflection on the Garmin.
