Product Reviews of Omron HJ-112 Digital Premium Pedometer
Product Review: Keeping track of your 20,000 steps
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband and I each have one of these, and just by using them, we have "sold" three more: one to my husband's doctor, as a matter of fact! one to his barber, and one to a friend. It's such a good item that it sells itself.Product Review: Terrific pedometer - easy to use
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this pedometer a couple of years ago when I got serious about exercising. It is small and easy to carry. It works equally well whether clipped on or carried in a pocket. (I did several spot checks to ensure consistency / accuracy.)
My partner also liked it and borrowed it occasionally. Unfortunately, he lost it the last time he used it, so I recently replaced it with the same model. Why switch when this one works so well?
Product Review: Over Counts Steps and BiG
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this based on all of the positive reviews. I liked the idea of being able to put this in my purse or pocket and walk. I was dissapointed.
It was very big. There is a clip on the back of it but if you clip it to your pants to log your steps be prepared for it to fall off. The clip is located in such a place that it makes it top heavy and the clip can't hold it on to what you put it on.
It over counted steps. By a lot. Several reviewers have mentioned this. I tested it against myself counting and against another pedometer I have and this one had more steps logged every time. Sometimes the difference was in the 100's that it had over counted. When I bought a new/better pedometer it too came in lower than the steps this one counted. IF you want an accurate count- don't get this one. If you want a boost in steps you have walked- this one might work for you.
There were other things that I found that I didn't like about this one. Several times buttons were pushed when I had this in my pocket. The buttons were not set low enough in to keep them from being pushed.
What a huge dissapointment. I would not have bought this pedometer had I known these things. Read the other five star reviews carefully and you will find they too had problems with this thing; they just felt the pros outweighed the cons.
Product Review: Great Pedometer
Summary: 4 Stars
This device is great. It is very accurate. As long as you input your correct weight and stride length, it will accurately calculate your distance in miles walked, your calories burned and correctly sense more intense (aerobic) steps. The seven day memory, however, only keeps track of total steps for that day.Product Review: YOU MUST GET ONE!
Summary: 5 Stars
I had tried cheaper pedometers, but I would wear them all day just to find out they weren't recording my steps accurately. I stopped trying. When I read some reviews (years later) I heard that by spending a little more you could get very good pedometers that actually work! I researched and read recommendations and decided on the Omron. I only wanted a simple pedometer that would give me accurate information. This one is GREAT! You can put it in your pocket, on your purse, or clip it on your body anywhere and it records.
Since I bought this, I have lost 6 lbs (I'm only 5'3"), just by trying to get that number to read 10,000 or more steps per day!! I teach aerobics classes, so I wear it during my class (which accounts for 4-5K of my daily steps) and then I have to stay active the rest of the day to get all my steps in. It's not as easy as you would think to get the 10K per day! You need the real data to know how active/non-active you really are.
I purchased 15 more of these to give to family members and to my clients to use. They all love theirs, too! You can't go wrong by purchasing the Omron pedometer.
