Product Reviews of Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer
Product Review: 4.5 stars
Summary: 4 Stars
First, I want to thank everyone who has written a review for all the different types of pedometers. I researched several different ones and I chose this one because of the good reviews and the relatively good pricing.
I'm impressed with the pedometer. It looks very nice, not too bulky and it works pretty well. I'd say it's about 96ish% accurate. I did some testing with it, counting my steps and seeing how much the pedometer recorded. Below are the results of the testing:
(For each test, I took 50 steps)
1. walk- recorded 50
2. walk- 52
3. jog- 51
4. jog- 51
5. walk up stairs- 50
6. stairs- 42
7. slow walk- 49
8. slow walk- 50
9. fast walk- 50
10. fast walk- 46
The overall accuracy average during the tests was: 49.1/50
I'd say that's pretty good results for a pedometer of this price. Many other pedometers I've looked at don't seem to come close to this accuracy. This is a great little gadget!
Product Review: 5 star motivator
Summary: 5 Stars
Does exactly what I hoped it would - accurate, easy to use, very motivating without being annoying. Even survived a brief plunge into a hot tub!Product Review: 5 star pedometer with a zero star holder and clip
Summary: 2 Stars
I have 3 of these pedometers. It is a great pedometer, it's accurate and can even differentiate the number of aerobic steps taken. I especially like it because of the memory mode where I can see how many steps I've taken for the past 7 days. For the pedometer, I give it 5 stars.
However I would take away 1 star because every time I bend over, the holder unclips from the top of my pants. Minus another star because the little clip at the end of the tether breaks exactly 13 months after purchase. Minus a third star because it's out of warranty and the customer (non) service people won't send out a replacement clip.
So like all the other reviewers, this is a great pedometer at a great price but plan on using something (safety pin, rubber band, zipper pocket, etc.) to secure it or lose it.
Product Review: 8+ years old and still ticking... but has gone through several batteries over that time
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this as a little stocking stuffer for my husband more than 5 years ago now and it's still working great. We've changed the battery a couple of times but never had a problem with it. We are of a similar height so it worked out well when he programmed it the first time, measuring his stride, so we can both use it just fine. Great design, durable, reliable, great product.
Eight years later now... I still love this product but be warned that there is no way to turn it off and it will eat up the cell battery quite quickly. I would downgrade it to a 4/5 star rating. Be prepared for that expense, or take the battery out with a screwdriver when not in use and re-program your pace steps again later.
Product Review: 82 year old found this Omron HJ 112 pedometer terrific
Summary: 5 Stars
Doctor advised walking two miles a day keeping up steady speed. This pedometer worked without any difficulty and very easy to retrieve information. Sometimes these types of new devices are hard for us older folks to manipulate but not this one. If you need a pedometer, this is the one to get.
