Comments about Garmin Forerunner 210 GPS Heart Rate Monitor - Women's:
This is my third Garmin Forerunner (first with a heart-rate monitor), and so far, the best. I have used it on five runs now, and it works well.
- Easy to set-up and use right out of the box.
- It is finding satellites quickly.
- I like the display - I need reading glasses but can see this screen fine without my glasses.
- I'm really happy with the design - nice looking and not so bulky (strap isn't as big as men's version).
- The battery is holding a charge well.

Comments about Garmin Forerunner 210 GPS Heart Rate Monitor - Women's:
Purchased this product to aid me in my recent attempts to lead a healthier lifestyle. I was looking for better information about how hard I was working and a way to better track my activities. This Garmin, combined with the optional heart rate monitor and the Garmin Connect website, have helped me do just that, allowing me to better achieve my goals and set realistic targets. I also like the GPS mapping feature, which allows me to track what portions of longer trails I've already hiked.
Service and delivery comments:
Product arrived faster than expected, having been backordered at the time I originally placed the order. Only thing I didn't like was that the Forerunner requires charging before use. Not sure there's really a way to get around that, but I like to be able to play with my new toys right away!

Comments about Garmin Forerunner 210 GPS Heart Rate Monitor - Women's:
I use this watch on daily runs and upload my data to the Garmin connect site weekly. Besides having an accurate record of times and distances, the site maps out the course, breaks down laps and paces, allows for goal setting. I find the ability to analyze my runs in so many ways to be tremendously motivating.
I'm a bit of a techophobe, so I carefully considered this purchase for its complexity. The set up was pretty easy and operation since then is a breeze. I'm very pleased with my purchase.
I did have a problem with the first Forerunner I bought dying after only 2 weeks. REI exchanged it no questions asked.

I use this for everyday running on the streets of Chicago. It finds the signal fast, even under trees, and it's usually spot-on accurate.
The features are simple to use, easy to see and provide me with enough data. I also like that I can pause the timer when I get caught at stoplights.
The Garmin website is fun too, though I wish it would show weekly totals in the calendar section.
I LOVE that it's made for women and fits my wrist.

Comments about Garmin Forerunner 210 GPS Heart Rate Monitor - Women's:
The fact that I spent so much on this product made me think that it wouldn't do what I needed it to do...I was wrong. I love it.
because I am not quite an avid runner, more of a beginner, I was concerned about the price but it is worth it. knowing how many calories I am burning within, literally, 30 seconds of me connecting it to my computer is awesome.
I also have used the heart monitor when doing yoga and realized I burned almost 300 calories in a 75 minute hot yoga class.
It was super easy to set up (note: I am in no way a gadget person).
Only thing is I think I need to put the Heart Rate monitor on first before getting the watch ready. I noticed that it has a hard time picking up and keeping the heart rate if I do it the other way around.
Garminconnect is awesome! no complaints there. Except it would be great if they had Yoga or related activities as an option to categorize my workouts.
This is a great product and it has really been an encouraging partner in my workouts.

This watch is wonderful. It is stylish and reliable. It has enough features for an avid runner to someone just trying to be more active. I have really enjoyed it.

Comments about Garmin Forerunner 210 GPS Heart Rate Monitor - Women's:
I really like this watch. It displays distance ran, time, and pace all on one screen. I haven't used the HR monitor yet, but it will also display that when I do. The 'quick start guide' is just that... Enough to get you going for a run, but if you want to learn all the features, the QSG is not the place to do so.
It seems to locate satellites quickly and stays locked on them.
I like that if I'm going to wear a bulkier watch (all gps watchers are) that it is a little girlie - I got the teal with swirls, but it also comes in plain black. Also, I like that this watch isn't quite as bulky as some of the higher models (it doesn't have as many features, so the computer isn't as big).
The only reson I did not give it 5 stars is that charging it is a little bit of a pain! It has four clips on the back, and it's kind of tricky to get them all connected. Once they are, I prop the watch up till its done charging.

I know it is early and based on the comments of others I'm a skeptic but for now the product is working great. Easy to set up and I love the Garmin Connect website for managing my training. So far so good. I run between 4-5 days a week so if I have problems with it I'll be back to let you know.

Comments about Garmin Forerunner 210 GPS Heart Rate Monitor - Women's:
This watch has the potential to be great, but the way to recharge it is a nightmare: the prongs need to be aligned up perfectly with the four prong teeth. The initial startup instructions are insufficient. Now in less than a month, my watch has a blank screen and is refusing to reset. Fussing with Garmin customer service, but think it will probably have to be returned. Glad I purchased it from REI.
