hrm PE-771 Tri-Axis Multi-Function Pocket Pedometer (Blue)

I got a pedometer out of curiosity to see how much walking I actually did in a day. This wasn't for a competition, or by doctors orders, or anything like that, so I wanted one that was inexpensive. This seemed to fit the bill. I have owned it for 6 months, actively used it for 3, and it works wonders! Whenever I real my goal (which I have set at 10,000, but it can be set at anything), it beeps to let me know, which is nice as I actively work to reach my goal, and then work normally afterwards. I had problems at first as to where to clip the darn thing. I tried several places, and most of them did not work because of the type of clothing I wear. Once I figured out that I can clip it to my sock, it's worked great. The clip works great. It will fall off if I run into a table and smack it off my leg, but other than that, it stays on. I NEVER had issues with the reset button, as it takes more than a quick press to reset. I've never tried to "Press and hold" because I don't want it to reset. The programing was easy enough, the instructions were clear. Yes, I had to open the booklet, but once I did, it took me all of 2 minutes to program EVERYTHING I wanted. I'm sure I would have figured it out with a combination of button pushing as there are only 4 buttons... BEWARE of extreme heat! I accidentally had this sitting right in front of a space heater, and I looked down and the screen was all black. Once it cooled down, it was fine, but something tells me that if it had been there for just a few minutes longer, I would need a new one. It was then I realized how much I liked this pedometer, because the thought of going for just a few days without was almost enough to make me cry.

I bought these for work for a competition we're doing. So far we had a few that had resent and people lost their actual steps for the day I told him to hit the reset button on the back of it to reset completely. Hopefully that will work if not I'm actually going to buy some batteries to hopefully fix the problem other than that, these cute little pedometer are excellent. they are really small and cute. You can clip them onto your belt buckle I tried clipping it on my parents but it end up popping off. I usually have it on my top but sometimes it doesn't get an accurate reading. A few of us were actually running on the treadmill and used the Stairmaster, it did not give a reading at all! a few of us are going to Get an actual fit bit so we can get accurate readings and that way if we can do other things on it. overall we are all still using them. today I'm going to try running with it and see what happens.

Loved it!

I bought one of these about 10 years ago, used it a few times and then stashed it in a drawer. 10 years later, and completely frustrated by all of the synching, bluetoothing, etc. required to hook up the current step-counting systems, I found this in my drawer. It still worked! It kept accurate count for seven months until I lost it at a child's birthday party. I have just received my second Pedusa pedometer (different color this time) and it is performing with 100% precision. For those of you who simply want an uncomplicated device with which to count your steps, this is for you. Highly recommended!

I like it after someone else set it up. The screens are fairly easy to see (low light less easy) and understand; to move from mode to mode; to reset. I can keep it in a pocket, hold it in a belt clip (the clip is fairly stiff plastic, so it was hard to get the thing out), has a lanyard to tie into a belt loop or around the wrist. I use the lanyard to tie it to my cell phone so that I always carry both. In setting up for first usage, the instructions seem to have skipped a sentence or two of detail... like how to enter numbers the first time. It tells you how to get into the setting mode, but then leaves it to your imagination as to how to input the numbers to base everything on (time, step length, weight [presumably to calculate Kcal expended]). I gave it to someone who never has a problem setting a digital clock or recording device; he fiddled for about 5 minutes, then had it. I'm not a digital idiot, but sometimes am short of patience.

Received it on May 13. Wore it all the time. Half the time I would look at it in the middle of the day and it had lost all my steps and reset itself. This evening it not only lost all my steps it is dead. I don't understand why I can't find a good quality simple one that I reset every morning put on and it counts my steps for that day. I don't want to have to use it with an ap or computer program just count my steps.

This is a great little device. The price is very reasonable. I just slip it into my pocket and I'm good to go. I have a tendency to forget to take it out of my pocket and run it through the washer. As a result I'm on my third one in as many years. I have given them the friends as gifts. My only criticism would be that the font on the directions is very small and difficult for me to read.

So far working just fine.

Only problem be careful if you have it on your waist and use the toilet. It can fall in. Take care
