Customer Rating:
Summary: Pretty awesome device!
Comment: I was recommended this device by my instructor at a local fitness center. Though he was trying to peddle me the ware sold by that center, I found this on Amazon for about $40 cheaper. This is an awesome device, and very compact. Though I have been a user for only a month, I find its capability, user design and benefit quite high. The online interface, and especially the method to synch data (sonic sync - or transferring data by converting it into sound signals and then using the computer's microphone to listen to the device and interpret the data) is pretty awesome - in fact I have not seen this in any (in my experience) other human-computer interface - except R2D2 perhaps. The data transfer can be a bit buggy since ambient noise can influence the signal, but overall - pretty cool!
I like the fact that I can program my exercise zones in and then use my instructor defined program completely to ensure a complete workout.
The only thing I miss is a bicycle mount - so that I dont have to get my hands off the handle bar everytime I need to check my performance...
But all in all - great buy!

Summary: Excellent HRM
Comment: I bought this to replace the Polar F11 I had for a few years before. Even though the F11 is more expensive, this has more features which makes it more fun to use. I've yet to get the foot pod but that's not far off. People complained about the buttons but they feel just like the ones on my old F11 so I'm not sure what the deal is. The extra button on the top is very useful when doing manual laps. If I broke the one I bought, I would definately buy another one.

Summary: effective
Comment: I have always done cardio but with very little results. Being better able to target heart rates using this watch has been very effective in helping reduce weight and increase my general health. Buttons on the side have a tendency to come off.

Summary: So far so good
Comment: Like any Polar product, this heart rate monitor works great. It accurately reads my heart rate and has enough features and sub menus to keep even the nerdiest occupied. My only real complaint is the sheer complexity of the sub menus. I accidentally pressed one button too long and it changed the display to something that wasn't useful for me (two lines of data instead of three). I fiddled with it for a couple workout sessions until I finally gave in and opened the manual. After digging through the manual for 15 minutes, I figured out what I did. Not the end of the world, but it gives some indication of the complexity of the menus. I could have gone for something a bit simpler and still been happy. Overall I would still recommend this product.

Summary: Very cheap product
Comment: I have owned older Polar hear rate monitors, my favorite was the S210. Is really cheaply made, belt is integrated into the watch, which is a very bad design, since the belt will be worn out with a year of usage. Overall, I think Polar products have gotten worse over the years. I am glad to see competitor like Garmin with much better products capturing the market they deserve.

Editorial Reviews:

The RS200 was made for goal-oriented runners who want to prepare for their first running event or who want to enhance their running experience. Use the Polar Sports Zones and the Event Countdown Timer to manage your training for that key running event. You can even upload your settings to your computer and transfer your workout files to the Polar Running Coach Web Service for analysis.
