Omron HJ 151 Hip Pedometer for Aerobic Activity

Customer Reviews

Very reliable pedometer, the one to get.

2008-06-03
This pedometer is very reliable and far better than the typical cheap pedometers available at the drug stores. It is a fully solid state device that uses a semiconductor accelerometer. The 7 day history of steps, miles , kCals are useful for keeping a log of activity.

A small quibble is the clip that can result in the pedometer dislodging under some conditions. I did lose the first one I had when it fell off at the beach.

Pedometer

I bought this for my parents. It came promptly and was in excellent condition. As far as I know my parents really like their pedometers.

Surprised!

2008-05-31
I was pleasantly surprised at how easy this thing is to work and how completely accurate it is. I work in a hospital and it clips and stays easily on my scrubs. I've already bought another one as a gift. One day I held it in my hand and walked over 300 steps with complete accuracy ... I can't ask for any better than that. The moderate steps feature is so important to me. There have been days when I felt like I was on my feet all day and my steps may have been near my 10,000 a day personal goal... but the moderate minutes were only 5-10. So I know that I still have some work to do to get to the 30 minutes goal of moderate exercise each day. I think it's a great motivator.

hip pedometer for aerobics

This pedometer is fine for normal activity, however it does not effectively work for aerobics exercise.

Nice, ... but

This is a nice pedometer. BUT... the belt clip does not work well it is always falling off the belt. Yesterday (after only 10 days of use) it hit the floor and cracked the LED face - End of pedometer.

Great for Measuring Activity

I like this pedometer because it is great for measing my activity during the day. I work at a desk for 12 hours a day and don't get nearly enough exercise. I like the construction of the pedometer. It is easy enough to use. I would highly recommend a leash. The leash is cheap and it will definitely save you pedometer. I had mines for a week and have looked down on at least 3 occasions to see my pedometer hanging from the leash. I would recommend this pedometer. The leash should be included, but it is not.

spend a little more

I bought it and it is working one day and not tracking my steps the next. I would spend a little more money and get a better one

great pedometer

2008-06-08
I was looking for a simple, easy to use tool to help me take 10,000 steps a day. This pedometer was the answer.

I find that if my husband wears the pedometer and walks the same distance that I walk, he takes fewer steps. That is ok with me, as my goal is 10,000 steps and not any given mileage. Someone who is intersted in a more detailed report might want a different model, but for me, this one does what I need.

Simply Perfect!

2008-06-07
This pedometer is by far the most perfect little device ever! I've owned numerous pedometers in the past and this one surpasses them all. It is inexpensive, simple to use, accurate and sturdy. If I could give every single person on a diet the Omron Aerobic Pedometer, I would. It is quite simply the perfect pedometer.

love it! Also buy a safety leash too!

2008-06-06
I love this little gadget. I find myself parking further away in parking lots and I tend to volunteer to "go get it". I'm adding steps every day and it keeps track of my walking which in it's self is a great motivator.

But! You will loose it if you don't buy a "safety leash for pedometer"
I bought one on Amazon.com for $1.25. The leash comes with it's two clips just remove the plastic one and loop it through the hole on the top of the pedometer's clip.
