Customer Reviews of Oregon Scientific SE102 LS Heart Rate Monitor

Customer Review: Not Great
Summary: 2 Stars

I've had the monitor for about a week and I regret getting it. I only just started endurance running so I didn't bother buying one of those expensive HRM's. But after buying the Oregon Scientific my suggestion is if your going to get a HRM, just go for a good one. The strap doesn't pick up my heart rate easily and when it does the reading is either too high or too low to be accurate. I have to adjust the strap every time it loses the signal which is a real pain when I'm trying to run. Sometimes the readings jump around from high to low heart rate, so I know it's wrong. Also, the watch is really uncomfortable - it presses against my wrist bone when. During a run I sometimes don't even bother dealing with it and just end up using the timer. Every once in a while I get a good reading while I'm running but I'll be lucky if it stays. However this is what I expected for the price.

Customer Review: Unreliable, inaccurate and they won't stand behind it
Summary: 1 Stars

Where to begin? Setup is long and complicated and irrelevant. Heart rate readings go all over the map and are different from what you get when you check your pulse manually. The calories-burned number is based on heart rate and elapsed time, and is the same for a 100-lb woman and a 200-lb man. The unit is unreliable. Half of he functions in mine stopped working in the first month. Later when I changed batteries, I could no longer enter any data: not time of day, nor fitness level - zip. A call to the Oregon Scientific customer service line was a waste of time. Their response: "Prove you had it for less than a year, and we'll exchange it (you pay shipping both ways), otherwise, go pound sand." Bottom line: this is junk, and Oregon Scientific won't stand behind it.

Customer Review: Very poor customer support
Summary: 1 Stars

I would strongly recommend against buying any Oregon Scientific product if you think there is the smallest chance that you might need cusomter support. I've been waiting more than two months for part of an item I bought. After five e-mails and a phone call to customer support, I still don't have the item, and without it, I can't use my heart monitor. I would never buy an Oregon Scientific product again.

Customer Review: Broke down in 34 days
Summary: 1 Stars

At first it looked great, everything seemed ok. But then I began to get readings higher than normal. And yesterday (may 11), just 34 days after I bought it, while I was in a long run it went crazy, everything turn on in the display.
Now I'm trying to make my guarantee work.
