"I love this product, I don't know how anyone ever ran without it! I bought it when the concept was brand new, they are much cheaper now! I think I see them new for $130-ish."Hapkido_Tim

Ease of installation

Excellent!

(5)

Ease of use

I hate running without this piece of gear! It's almost as a part of me as my running shoes and shorts!

(5)

Quality of Construction

I have run in with this equipment in rain, sleet, and shine! Dropped it in puddles of water and dropped it on the ground countless times, it still works five years later!

(5)

Fit

Adjustable strap with velco, simple and easy design.

(5)

Comfort

At first it had a somewhat bulky feeling to it because it is a little larger and heavier than your normal watch. Once you get used to it, it's just fine!

(5)

Adjustability

Adjustable strap with velco.

(5)

Durability

Dropped it from about four feet up a number of times, as well as run in the rain, and dropped it into puddles, soaking it in water...no issues!

(5)

Value

Invaluable

(5)

Appearance

Colors are a standard green and black.

(5)

Customer Service

I've never had any issues, but I hear that any issues that do come up, Garmin is always there to support the customer.

Strengths

Personally, I love the rechargable battery, as well as the software included with the package!

Weakness

None that I've found!
