Suunto T6C Personal Trainer Heart Rate Monitor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had the fusion for about a week now - perhaps it's premature to write a review, but I can't find any sticking points to keep me from loving this watch/HRM.

I am not a "pro" or even a "die hard", but I wanted to take my athleticism to a new level. I had dinked around with several Polar models, and even a Nike because that's what the local running store sells.It took me a long, long time and alot of reading to get up the courage to enter the market at this price point, but I gotta say I am glad I did.

I was considering the Forerunner but the idea that you had to charge it every couple of days was off-putting.Still, the Suunto was a big investment, especially given the ambiguous reviews here on Amazon. I swallowed hard and did it eyes wide open.

You know something? Not one single negative thing listed in these reviews happened. The backlight isn't that bad - I can read the watch clearly at night in bed.The software isn't that bad - I did buy the FirstBeat program and I like it better, but not to the detriment of the equipment. How much information can you really use? I'm not in that league. There is a seamless connection between all the pods I use (several at the same time if you include the heart rate belt - how DO they get that thing to be so accurate and so THIN and comfortable???). And when I run on the treadmill I can check my heartrate with the handgrips and they match to the beat.

There is only one minor caveat - I am pretty good with technology but not good at reading the instructions. I got stuck and decided to call customer support and was on hold for about 15 minutes - long enough for me to read the instructions (duh!) and solve the problem easily myself and hang up before somebody answered.But I knew that might be the reality before I bought the watch and you should too.Still, I got everything right without help.

And here is an irony - it's the watch and the excitment about going to the next level that inspires me to run even more, rather than vice versa.See, I was having a blast training hard but when I actually got to LOOK at what was going on, it turned out I wasn't nearly as efficient as I thought I was.So, I go home now, scope it out, and adjust my workout according to the results, and see what happens. I go in this stepwise fashion and my workouts are better.

All in all, it was really worth it to me. I hope I didn't jinx it by writing such a glowing review so soon, but in my experience, if things are going to go wrong with electronics they go wrong pretty fast. So far they haven't and I don't expect they will.
