Omron Digital Pedometer-Model HJ-112

Pedometer particulalry accurate with level walking

Strengths: Versatile - works in pockets and on belt. Seems to measure steps accurately on level surfaces.

Weakness: Does not differentiate between normal stride lengths with level walking, versus shorter steps that you have with inclines or steep descents, so tends to overstate the distance when hiking mountains.

See weakness above. Pedometer is very accurate on level surfaces, but tends to overstate distances when hikes involve mountains, as the shorter steps needed to climb or descend, are read by the device as being longer strides as though you were on a level surface. To compensate, you would have to readjust your stride length on the pedometer every time your hike changed to a steep or even moderate...

Digital Pedometer-Model HJ-112

Strengths: digital readout

Weakness: size

The unit can be used in multiple positions, so it can be carried in your pocket. That means my husband will use his. Otherwise, he wouldn't, because he wouldn't wear it on his belt. The digital readout is really great. Easy to read. It's a little big & bulky for wearing on a ladies waistband, but that's the only way I can wear it, since I don't often have pockets to put it in.

Digital Pedometer Model HJ-112

Strengths: It is easy to configure.

Weakness: It doesn't always work (counting steps) even though I use it in the same way everyday (placement location). It says it won't count stair steps; sometimes it does, and sometimes it doesn't.

This pedometer sounds better than it is. If you are serious about counting your steps, don't count on this one. It doesn't accurately work all the time.

Omron Digital Pedometer-Model HJ-112)

Strengths: Easy to read digital display. Easy to use buttons. Large, but did not get in the way of my running.

Weakness: Woefully inaccurate distance measurements while jogging or walking. Inability to adjust stride measurement to accurately reflect distance jogged.

I purchased the Omron Digital Pedometer HJ-112 because it was highly rated as an accurate pedometer for running. The distance measurement (which I care about) was consistently inaccurate. I spoke with a rep about the stride issue and the problems with the measurements.I used a 1/4 mi. track at a local private school to repeatedly reset the stride for accuracy, with no success. On July 6, I wore 2...

Partner with the OMRON digital Pedometer - a real...

Strengths: Easy to program and to wear. Good memory features.The automatic changing to next day is great.

Weakness: None to date except for small print on the units of measurement words - i.e. steps, aerobic, miles, minutes. The numerical representations are bold and good.

Omron is a great name in many medical pieces of equipment so I did not hesitate to make this purchase. It is well designed, easy to wear,and lightweight.I have used many types of pedometers in my nutrition counseling presentations. This one I could recommend without hesitation and it is affordable.

Omron Digital Pedometer-Model HJ-112.

Strengths: Love the 7 day recorded info for the ones that like to keep track. Also love the ability to not only just clip it to your jeans but can slip it in your pocket and is still accurate. Strap is nice too.

Weakness: None really, if any thing it is a bit larger than alot of the other brand pedometer on the market, but really doesn't make that much difference with the performance.

Simply love this product. Seems to be very accurate and is not really that hard to setup and start using. It seemed to me a bit pricey, but after trying it for a while, made it worth it to me. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good reliable pedometer.

Very convenient - but misses aerobic steps of...

Strengths: Very convenient; memory keeps track of prior 7 days; tracks regular steps, aerobic steps, KCal, and miles

Weakness: Fails to capture aerobic steps of walks less than 10 minutes

Overall, I am very pleased with it. But it definitely does NOT capture many aerobic steps. In particular, the manual says that it will capture steps as aerobic if more than 60 steps a minute are taken OR if there is 10 minutes or more of continuous walking. In fact, if I walk or even run for say 5 minutes at well over 60 steps a minute, it fails to count those steps as aerobic, despite what the...

It's OK

Strengths: well-made

Weakness: no lights to see pedometer at night

It appears to be well-made. It didn't work if your pocket is snug. I'm not happy that it doesn't have any lights to see the product when you are walking in the dark in the early morning or evening.

pedometer rating

Strengths: accurate

Weakness: large size. programming not user friendly initially.

Could be smaller. More user friendly programming instructions needed. I finally just worked with it until I got comfortable with it. Seems accurate. Top angle review of results needed so no need to take it off. Overall I am pleased.

Great accurate Pedometer!

Strengths: Accuracy, Memory, Aerobic steps counter, Ability to put in pocket or purse,etc

Weakness: Sometimes there is a slight delay in count. If in purse, bag, etc you need to ensure it doesn't lie flat (or less than 60 degrees from horizontal).

Overall, I highly recommend this pedometer. It is very accurate. In fact, you can hold it in your hand and look at it as you walk. When I did this, it was right in-sync with my steps. I also went for a longer walk and counted the steps and it was within a few steps. I clipped this pedometer and my old under $10 pedometer on (which I knew was inaccurate, I thought by around 50%) but I found that...
