Unreliable, inconvenient and expensive
- Garmin Connect

- Consistently unreliable
I bought the product because I have a lot of Garmin smart products and it is a compact device.
But if you take away all the bells and whistles, it ultimately only comes down to one thing: Reliable measurement and this device does not do that. It is in almost all cases 10 to 20 higher than my Omron and also very volatile in between.
Given the high price, the constant need to measure with Omron and the awkwardness with putting on and storing, this is simply a bad product.

Nice design, Garmin connectivity. But I had to reinstall it once when the software refused. It happens like that, but it's remarkable.

Nice heart rate monitor (not cheap) that is easy to use. Purchased this from Garmin as a welcome addition to all my other values in the GarminConnect windows
