from St. Louis Park, MN Date Reviewed: November 15, 2006 Strengths: Simple, durable, large & clear display, backlight, works with Polar hrms, great value for the C5. Weaknesses: Water resistance. I can't race a full triathlon with it. It won't work. The first time I got it wet, it went on the fritz for a few days. I let it dry out for a few days, and it works fine again. You get funky readings when the battery is low. The chest strap battery lasted over a year for me.

from So Cal Date Reviewed: November 6, 2004 Strengths: It was free as part of a training package from CTS (which is very good, by the way) Weaknesses: Chest monitor gets wet and corodes from sweating; while biking; very hard to use bottons; easily resets from contact with riding gloves; backlight, once activated, will only last for ~2 seconds; large and cumbersome. MSRP is $159... wow!!!!

from SG/CA Date Reviewed: February 25, 2004 Strengths: The watch is more user friendly than a Polar version. I really just want to know my heartrate so I can train in my target Zone... The Nike also feels better to use than the polar. Weaknesses: I know a lot of ppl are complaining about the chest monitor but I've got an insight..... the Nike HRM also works with Polar Chest Monitors... Yep I use a Nike Triax 15 HRM with a Polar Monitor 'T61-Coded'... so much for coded ehh!! It guess it should work with the non-coded monitors Polar Monitors too! Nike HRM picks up signals from other Electronic devices at Random. It thinks my iBook is a chest monitor with a BMP anywhere from 60~121...

from Norway Date Reviewed: January 19, 2004 Strengths: HRM Triax 15: Good looks, big display, lap function and timer functions Weaknesses: Crappy transmitter strap design, it's definitely not water resistant in the long run. User manual, it doesn't even tell you that there is a feature for average heart rate.

from London Date Reviewed: December 22, 2003 Strengths: The looks, good backlight and the watch itself is pretty durable. Weaknesses: Chest transmitor has poor battery life and has now completely died on me 13 months after purchase. i was using the watch nearly every day for running or rowing and had to change the battery at least 4 times (i have lost count). the range and reception is useless apart from with the new battery. genuinely accurate readings seemed to be only about 80% of the time.

from Akron, OH, USA Date Reviewed: September 7, 2003 Strengths: It looks cool Weaknesses: Transmitter is a crap. Ir worked well for 6 months then It started to say I have either a heart beat of 165 or 115. Or it stops at 140 for 15 minutes. I changed the batteries, no change. The buttons are very hard, sometimes doesnt bother to work at all. I should feel lucky if you hear the out of zone alarm. I dont trust NIKE anymore after this watch. They are not selling products, they are selling their name. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $150.00 Purchased At: Sports Shop Similar Products Used: Unfortunately, this was my first heart rate monitor. Next time I will make a deep research before buying and no more Nike products.

from AL Date Reviewed: August 19, 2003 Strengths: Looks cool, nice graphs, 100 lap memory is great! Weaknesses: Piece of crap! It's supposed to be water resistant and was for the first 2 years. I never replaced the battery or opened the back case...took it to the beach and the salt water killed it within 5 mins!

from Manila, Philippines Date Reviewed: August 17, 2003 Strengths: Lots of features. Got it for a fraction of a price of a polar base model. Weaknesses: The transmitter is crap!!! I had the transmitter replaced after it conked out after 8 months. The replacement i got just gave up as well after around 7-8 months. All this despite taking good care of the transmitter. Polar still has the best quality. Now most of the features of my watch are useless! The out-of-training zone alarm is too weak. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years

from Newcastle, UK Date Reviewed: July 24, 2003 Strengths: (For HRM[triax 15) Excellent design and display. Liked the scratch proof lens and HR graph. Decent backlight too. Weaknesses: Too many to mention. It weighs a ton; doesn't give lap times with heart rate data; you are shown a graph of your exercise but cannot analyse what heart rates they are, just shows the trend; only one exercise can be stored; doesn't give time in or out of training zone or average, min or max heart rate of exercise; etc... Overall - just crap. The Polar S-series HRMs do far more for the same price.
