A pefometer I'd walk a mile with. Well maybe a few steps more or less than a mile anyway.
This pedometer does not have all the bells and whistles of its more expensivej brethren but it cerainly serves the purpose I wanted it for. In keeping with my diet and exercise goals, i simply wanted something to track the number of steps I take each day. This does so adequately for me. It may not have my steps down to an exact number, it seems to be off a little bit sometimes, but it is close enough for my needs. It is constrcted of a sturdy plastic. I doubt it would break easily if dropped or knocked into something, but i likewise would not go trying to prove me wrong. It has a small lanyard attached to it. The important numbers are of a size that makes them easily readable. Some text is pretty small and might prove bothersome to some that have bad eyesight.<br /><br />My only dislike is the pedometer's push buttons. It requires a lot of pressure to push the buttons in. After setting the pedometer up, my fingers were sore for a day. I understand why - the makers obviously do not want the buttons to be triggered during the pedometers use by the activities the wearer undertakes.  Still, couldn't a snap slide or switch mechanism be employed that disables or enables the buttons at which point people don't have to press those buttons so hard? O.K., perhaps i am just a cranky old fart with hands not as versatile or tough as they once were.<br /><br />I am pretty satisfied with my purchase. I recommend it if you want a fairly simple pedometer and not one that has a lot of functions you don't really need or plan on using.
