I have owned this product for over a year now and am so happy with it I bought another one! I use it mostly for hiking. It records the entire hike: elevation; speed; heart rate; map of hike; grade; time; distance. You can also use it to record how long it takes to get to the trail head, as well as the route you took to get there. Originally I bought it to use for running, but I found I only had time to run on our treadmill. So I had to buy a foot pod to record the distance I ran. I found the foot pod was quite expensive. When I saw the Garmin Forerunner 50 on sale at Costco for $80 I bought it. The Forerunner 50 has a heart rate monitor and the foot pod. Then I took out the foot pod and sold the HRM on Craigslist for $50. It worked perfectly!
The features on this watch are quite extensive. The size does not bother me a bit. I find you can view up to four different data values at one time. You can fully customize the data you view on multiple screens. I recommend this watch for any hiker who wants to view there progress. It even has a map feature so you can see where you have been, so if you’re going back on the same route that you hiked in on, you will be able to look at the watch and see if you’re on the correct route. Once you download the information into your computer you can make notes about the hike such as the trail you took or the what the weather was like.
You can even use it when you’re driving or boating. I even used it to calculate our fuel consumption when we were boating on Lake Powell in Utah.
So to recap:
You can use it inside on a treadmill
You can use it outside biking, hiking, or running
You can use it driving or boating.
It is a very versatile piece of electronics.
There were only two features I wish the watch would have:
#1 the ambient temperature, so the computer could record it and
#2 a solar feature to recharge the battery. Thanks for reading.

This scale not only looks sleek but it is accurate as well. Simply step on the scale and the display glows blue and in a second or two displayed your weight to the nearest 1/5 (0.2) lb. It is slim and can be easily stored when not in use.
