 works great November 12, 2009

My husband bought this unit almost a year ago, when another brand he was using quit working. this has been working great for him. I started using it a few weeks ago, and have been please with it's performance. The strap is comfortable, and the monitor is fairly acurate and easy to read. It is nice to have your heart rate displayed constantly, without having to stop and push a button. So far, it is wearing very well. Nothing is broken, and after a year, it is still displaying the correct heart rate. The other unit we bought earlier, was cheaper, and died after just a year. The strap just needs a little water on it before straping it on, like others of its kind. But, once on, it is not noticable at all. I have liked this so much, that I am buying one for each of our daughters for Christmas this year.
Reliable Basic HR monitor February 21, 2010

I bought this after researching quite a bit. I was more concerned about the accuracy of the Heart rate. Though some of the machines in my Gym shows fairly accurate HR, I wanted to get away from the requirement of holding on to the sensors always. With the above said as the only selection criteria I selected this model.
Pros:
1. So far in my tests/compares, It has provided accurate HR .
2. It was a pleasant surprise when almost all of the aerobic excercise machines (those I worked out on) in my gym picked up the signal from the transmitter and showed the data just as if I am holding the machine's sensor.
3. No issues with chest hair as mentioned in reviews for other models. I never had any problem in this regard though I have reasonable chest hair.
4. If you bring the watch close to the chest transmitter, it automatically switches to other modes (from HR display to Time display etc). I found this to be very useful as I need not slow down or do any additional thing to switch modes.
Cons:
Looks like one needs to send this out to factory even for battery replacement. So, for all practical purposes, I consider that once the battery life is gone, the monitor is useless.. Having said that, even if this works for an year or so, It is worth the money, IMO.
You need to watch out for the model if you need additional features (Calories calculator etc).
Summary: This is a good reliable basic heart rate monitor. If you intend to use this while working out on aerobic exercise machines (and assuming they show burnt calories etc), this would be a good choice.
great basic heart rate monitor February 2, 2010

I bought this product because my previous heart rate monitor watch battery died and I saw no way of replacing it. This watch/strap combo costs 1/2 as much as my old model polar and does the same thing. As a bonus the watch display is quite large and easy to read while running/exercising. The older more expensive polar watch had more features, which I never used, but the display was small and in a smaller font making it much more difficult to read.
Strap is plenty big and comfortable. it says "m" (medium?) on it but it has no problem fitting my 46" chest.
Good product. just note that the battery is not replaceable so once this thing goes you will probably have to send it back in or get another one.

This is the "entry level" polar - but really I din't know what else I'd need it to do - it monitors you heart rate, time of your excersise, and displays the time of day.
An excellent basic heart monitor January 31, 2010

The FS2C Polar Heart Monitor is a fine piece of equipment. It has always picked up the heartbeat without having to wet the sensor and I like the feature that let's you switch modes during exercise by moving the wrist unit close to the sensor unit. The only way to set the desired alarm range on this unit is manually so if you want to enter your age and have the range set automatically you'll need to buy the FS3C.Polar FS3 Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Dark Grey)
