Easy to use and accurateJan 02, 2007
By Michelle R. Shores
This pedometer is easy to set up and use. I tested its accuracy at the local highschool track by walking a 1/2 mile, and sure enough, my pedometer read 1/2 mile. The clip is sturdy, I haven't had any problem with the device falling off. The leash is a good extra - if it did fall off, it wouldn't hit the ground. My doctor gave me a goal of 10,000 steps per day, so I wear this all day long. It is light and I don't notice I am wearing it throughout the day.
The only downfall to this device (as is probably true with others)is that your stride is measured for walking, so when you are running or doing other cardio activity (elliptical) it doesn't accurately measure your distance. Since your stride is longer during a cardio activity (running), and the device is measuring your walking stride, the distance measurement falls short. However, the actual number of steps taken is still accurately measured. I suppose you could adjust the setting to a running stride when running to bridge this gap.

Excellent for the price ..Feb 08, 2007
By K. Downs
I purchased this pedometer to replace one that kept resetting itself back to zero ... the case cover on this one protects the buttons so it doesn't reset. I like the fact that I can open the lid and read the LED without taking it off. My only problem is the little leash ... it came with both a plastic and a metal clip. The plastic clip has lost it's "springiness" and I'm sure will stop working soon; but at least I have the metal clip to fall back on.

 This device works well, is very accurate, and may help you to a healthier tomorrow!May 06, 2007
By RCB
This product does what it says it will do. I am very pleased. I checked its accuracy with a Garmin GPS Forerunner and the ACCUSPLIT AE170 was dead-on in synch with mileage and steps. The wearer does have to put in an accurate stride length for the pedometer to work accurately. Make sure that when you attach the device to your waist area that it is vertical and will stay vertical to get a full count of your steps. For me, this is a great motivational device to move my butt and pile up those steps. I'm delighted when I post a huge number in my journal at the end of the day. I'm in much better shape and my weight is down since February and this pedometer has been a major factor in doing that.

durable and cheapMay 17, 2007
By J. Gibson
I accidentally ran my Accusplit through the washing machine--extra cycles and extra spin, no less--but rescued it before putting it in the dryer. Still works just fine, tho this is probably not something that should be repeated. I find the pedometer to be easy to use, extremely accurate . . . and surprisingly durable.

Love it!Jan 02, 2007

This is the third one I've owned (the first two both met unfortunate deaths in the bathroom...ahem) and I love it. The clip is sturdy, and my older one was still very accurate after three years of use. The battery lasted a few years on my first one (I wrecked the second one before having to change it).
