Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-29 Summary: Super-Watch ... I'm in training for the NY Marathon and have been using the Polar RS200sd with footpod and heart monitor for 10 weeks. I made the right choice and I'm extremely happy with the watch. Here are the reasons why: - Slimline and not bulky like other watches. I wear this for work and it looks just fine! - Long life battery. Some of the other watches require constant charging. - Many useful functions. I've only used maybe 40% of the features so far. Most useful to me is 'heart rate zones' and distance/pace measurments. - ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-11-13 Summary: Great for workouts not 100% perfect ... I love the heart rate monitor. I love knowing how many calories I burn in my workouts, my trainer is even using it now to gauge how hard he is working me. But I have to say untill you start sweating it has a hard time picking up an accurate heart rate, make sure you do what it says and wet the back of the sensor a bit. I do love that a lot of cardio equipment automatically picks up the polar sensor!!! ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-09-20 Summary: Good but would like to transfer data ... I have been using this product for several years. It is my first heart rate monitor and I like the use of seeing how much i'm pushing myself with the heart rate measurement and especially the estimated calories burned. This def gives me more motivation. The heart rate monitor will be picked up on the machines at the gym also displaying it there. Some ones that are probably are broken end up interfering and giving screwy numbers for the watch. The one thing that I thought it had when I bought it was the uplink feature. ...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-22 Summary: Buyer beware!!!!! ... The T31 arrived and wasn't in a factory package. It looked used and it probably was! If you want a polar t-31 that is NEW IN THE PACKAGE, buy it from a different company!!! The company claims that the T31 that they sell doesn't actually come in a package, because they buy them in bulk... Other sellers get them out the door in factory new condition (IE: Sealed packages).. I recommend that you purchase this item from them.. Don't bother calling them for post sales support.. They have no interest at all in helping you. ...more
