Mistake
Two problems I have with this unit: . The dial is hard to read . And the controls are hard to work.So you probably won't be able to see it's info very well but that's ok because you probably won't have been able to set it up anyway. The salesman was so nice I felt like buying something. I'll stick with my current Acumen unit.

Complex, flimsy, unstable
Bought this with high hopes because of its compact design and supposedly good features - BUT: 1) The setup is very long and tedious. And if you don't complete it the moment you change batteries, it's very difficult to do so later. 2) The buttons have all the tactile feedback of a pencil eraser. They are almost impossible to operate. Very poor quality. 3) The darn thing keeps falling off! And every time it falls off, the battery pops out and it forgets everything, of course, and so it demands tha...

Does not work
You would think in this day and age with the technology we have that a devise could not fail so miserably. It is really hard to use and just does not seem to work as far as I can tell. I have given it a few days and keep going back to the instructions to see if I can get more out of them. The control buttons are really hard to use. I just wish I had done a little reading up on pedometers before I bought this one.

Does Just What I Want It to Do
I've had this pedometer for several years and am finally in the market to replace it because one of the buttons failed. I wear it 100% of the time for tracking not just exercise steps but daily activity steps, and it's done a good job. The display is easy to read without removing the unit from my waistband, I get my daily figures in both numbers of steps and miles covered, setup takes only a few minutes, I can plug in my actual measured stride length rather than having the unit calculate it base...

Great product
This is the second Oregon Scientific Pedometer that I have owned. I love the 7 day counter and all the other features. The only thing that I do not like is that the clip sometimes comes off of my pants, depending on the waist band I am wearing. Otherwise, very accurate and perfect for me! I love this Pedometer!

USELESS
Do not buy. The device does not count your steps at all. I've attached it at every location around my hips and NOTHING. I even tried putting it in my pocket. NOTHING.The counter only responds if you shake it up and down. However, it does nothing when you walk. I've been testing it for the past hours to see maybe there was a miracle spot where it can sense my movement. But nope. Totally disappointed.Will be contacting the manufacturer.

not very good
This is a very hard product to get your info logged in. not very good directions. Not sure why they can not be easier to program. And they are pretty heavy compared to others on the market.

Hard to us.
Pedometer is hard to setup. Doesn't register steps if you wear it on your side.

Do not buy this product.
I purchased this product and it is impossible to program. You are not able to program the pedometer since the side buttons are so small and difficult to manuever. I basically threw away my money. Do not buy this product.
