could be betterAugust 6, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
i love gaiam products (was introduced through their pilates series) so this isnt a negative on the company. the pedometer just isn't what i thought it would be. it's really easy to reset your steps without meaning to due to the location of the reset button and the pedometer easily falls off my waistband while walking. i found it much easier to attach to my belt or put in the pocket of my pants and sometimes would attach it to the chest strap on my backpack (still got accurate reading). good product, i just wish they'd move the reset button or make it harder to reset the object.
Sensitive/Inaccurate step countJanuary 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought three of these for Christmas, and we are all having a difficult time getting them to work correctly. There is a button on the back of the item that allows you to control the sensitivity if the machine is counting too little or too many steps. If you push it too far to the left, it doesn't count enough, and if you push it too far to the right, then it counts a ton of steps. Unfortunately, becuase it is so sensitive and often quite inaccurate, we aren't using them like I hoped we would. Also, the button to "clear" the amount of steps is too easy to accidentally knock and clear the data for the day/workout. I wouldn't recommend this product.
