      Comments about Freestyle Tracer Pedometer:

      I have tried many different pedometers-at least 4 or 5 of those [...] carries. I like this best. It stays in place on my belt better than most, the clip lasts longer than a lot of them, it has a timer, it's easy to read and and to reset.... I just lost one and I'm ordering another of this same one. Only drawback is sometimes the stride length gets reset unintentionally. I glue a small piece of rubber on top so the buttons cannot get pushed accidentally, which almost entirely prevent that problem. I use it every day for walking around 5 miles.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Freestyle Tracer Pedometer:

        This pedometer has lots of functions: timer (that stops when you stop and starts when you start- love it!), clock, calories burned, distance (mi/km), steps. Pretty easy to figure out and use. Very simple. Small and compact, I don't notice it when I walk/run, but longer tight tops fit a bit awkward as it sits on your hip. One thing I wish it could do would be to switch stride length calculations automatically when I go from walking to running- I have to do this manually. Overall, great product for what I use it for.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          Comments about Freestyle Tracer Pedometer:

          The buttons are not protected in anyway so they're easy to hit and it is too easy for the pedometer to reset things. I set the time twice one day, my weight twice one day, and at the end of the day I knew I had more steps/miles than it said I did I just don't know exactly when everything was reset in the day. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!

          Comments about Freestyle Tracer Pedometer:

          I bought two of these in mid-Jan, one for me & one for my wife. The distance functions and calories burned are NEVER accurate because the stride length & weight entered at setup seems to continually change by themselves. My belt clip broke within 2 months.

          Comments about Freestyle Tracer Pedometer:

          Whoever designed this product had a great idea, but they did not make it usable. I was impressed with the meter, but I had to give it the lowest rating because I could not keep it clipped to my clothing. The clip is so poor that the meter kept falling off and getting lost. I was always able to find it, but it was a super pain trying to keep it clipped on.. Finally, when I clipped it over the waistband of my jogging pants and my running shorts,to keep it from falling off, the clip snapped off. The clip on this meter is not a spring clip. At this writing I still have the meter but will be returning in as soon as I can get to the store. If the company that made it would put a good spring clip on the meter, I think it would be rated a first choice. For now, don't buy it, it will drive you nuts.

          Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

            Way to easy to accidently reset because buttons aren't recessed and are easy to push -- even my parka reset it. Might be OK for the treadmill at the gym but pretty much useless for hiking, cross country running, etc.

            While this product was easy to program and easy to use, I found it also too easy to reset by accident and lose your days information. I bought the[$] Omron and love it. No mishaps since.
