Summary: Another Modern Marvel
Comment: This precision device, accurately measures only one thing directly: the total number of steps taken. Although, based on your entered weight and stride length, it also calculates the approximate calories burned, the number of "aerobic" steps taken, and distance walked. Furthermore, the meter resets at midnight, and keeps a 7 day log of all this information.
Granted that all variables are calculated (except total number of steps taken, By nature, they are not precise, and cannot be expected to be so. However, this is merely a limitation of physics and mathematics, not a problem with the pedometer itself.
I have owned it for about two weeks, and tested it in my twice daily walk up to a local park, with a known round trip distance of 2.8 miles. This meter consistently comes pretty close to this number with every walk. It calculates, based on one's weight (which, for me, is neatly coming down), thanks to the motivational factor that this device provides.
Omron is a trusted brand name for medical devices. I have owned an Omron spghymomaneter (blood pressure meter), that has served me well for years, giving accurate pulse and blood pressures.
Other reviews are correct that the belt clip is not reliable. I suggest attaching a safety pin through the cord, and clipping it to your shorts, sweats, or clothing. Make it un-loseable this way, or you will probably eventually lose it.
Conclusion: if you are serious about a walking exercise program, this is an extremely useful and low cost investment. Highly recommended, especially for diabetics those wishing to add exercise to the formula for lowering cardiovascular and stroke risk.

Summary: LOVE IT!
Comment: I have tried several pedometers over the last couple of years. I found this one to be easy to program and use. The numbers are big enough it can be read easily without my glasses. I have tested against other machines to see the accuracy of my numbers and found it to be right on the mark. I loved it so much I have bought one for my walking partner!

Summary: A Great Pedometer
Comment: This is the second pedometer I've owned, and I love it. It does have some tiny flaws, but then nothing is perfect. What I like about this is:
- keeps track of steps whether clipped to one's waist, in one's pocket, or even in one's purse. What a fabulous feature! I usually keep it in a pocket, though I have kept it in my purse on occasion. I've tried clipping it to my waistband, but it doesn't seem to work as well there.
- tracks steps, aeorbic steps, miles, and calories burned. I've found the miles walked an especially nice feature as I am training towards 5K and eventually towards half-marathons.
- the easy to read large read is great for those of whose eye-sight is not what it once used to be.
- the 7 day memory is great for keeping track of progress over the past few days of what/how I've done.
This pedometer has so impressed me, I've bought one for my boyfriend, and will soon be buying one for my mother. I just think it's great, and the price is pretty on the wallet as well.

Summary: Great Pedometer
Comment: This is the best Pedometer that I've ever owned. Very accurate and easy to use. The safety strap is a lifesaver and has kept me from losing the pedometer many times. I've been using the pedometer to achieve a 10,000 step goal and wear it all the time. I highly recommend it and have purchased 2 more for gifts for my walking friends.
